The World of Masks

There was no level-up that Jack wanted, just as there was no life in the beads. Even the beads of Samantha's life that she believed in turned away from Jack's faith. It looks like it was used to restore the life-sucking tribe to its original state. I don't know if it was that much life consumption or whether it had restored all of Samantha's usual life, but the orb of life was also empty. However, the word 'follower of the Demon King' and the number of +50 on the entire stat bothered my nerves to stick my lips out or to gently grind my lips.

'There was no such thing last time, right?'

I've been thinking about events in the past that I've inadvertently acquired abilities that I simply can't remember. However, there was no such event even if you turned the brain cells upside down and stimulated them.

'After all, I think the sequelae was a little less · · · · · · · · ·.'

Suddenly, I was thinking of seeing INT at +50, which totaled 62. I hadn't thought until now if it was the chaos that woke me up from the dungeon, but the aftermath seemed to have subsided a little. Of course, I don't know if it's really sinking, or if I'm just feeling that way by looking at the INT where the numbers are up.

Jack stares at the character's spear for a while. Again, the name 'follower of the Demon King' continued to be mentioned. If it's about you and the Demon King, there's only one bead of life. Soon, Jack puts his hand on the bracelet and tries to pull out the orb of life.

"Huh?"

No matter how you shout, you can't find the orb you're looking for. The inventory window of the bracelet was activated immediately. The first thing I noticed from the translucent window in front of my eyes were the corpses whose vitality was crumpled up in each compartment. Jack finds the orb of life in a handful of items without paying attention to the corpses. However, no matter how much I looked, I couldn't see it. Did you put it in another bracelet? Jack checked every other bracelet he had. I searched through the inventory window, but I couldn't see any living beads, just a corpse that was fast-moving.

Jack instinctively walked twice without seeing the orb of life in his bracelet. It was because I doubted that he had dropped it. The first thing that stood out was the beads of life of other players, who had just absorbed their life force. Maybe he mixed them up, but he took a step to check.

At that moment, I noticed a slight glint. The sparkle rises right next to the stone table. Jack walked over there.

"· · · · · · · · · This."

Various items were rolling around on one side of the stone table. Worn robes, old grimoires, and a few beads of life. Obviously the crops from this place.

'By the way, these should have been on the table.'

I swiped the stone table next to him with my hand. I feel cold and smooth. Jack looks down at the items rolling around on the ground again.

Why are these separated? '

Why did I wake up on the altar table again?

When the sorcerer on the altar reacts, the items are pushed to the ground next to Jack's body, but he doesn't know. Jack picks up the beads of life one by one, just in case the beads of his life get stuck between them. All I could think of was the tag of a sublime bead of life. It was time to sigh and try to draw out an emotional card to find out more accurately.

'Lesser Orb of Life.'

From the bead you just picked up, a different tag came to Jack's attention. Jack quickly takes out his emotional card and looks at the bead of life below.

Lesser Orb of Life (Max HP Absorption Limit 631) Varel

For Jack the Reaper only.

The Orb of Life taken by the Silver Man of Fortune Lanpral of the Beginner Village. Absorbs life from humans and metahumans, not beasts or monsters. Absorbed HP can only be invested in stats. Four sacrifices were used at the Demon King's Altar to upgrade to the lower ranks.

'This is...'

The description was clearly similar to the bead of life that he had. However, the ratings and descriptions of the beads were different. The lowest rank rises to the lower ranks, and the maximum health absorption limit increases. He also explained that his private side had been upgraded from the Demon King's altar through four sacrifices.

"· · · · · · · · · · · · What the hell happened?"

I finally spit it out. I didn't understand what happened after I died in the game. No. Why is there a bead of life out there that should have been inside his bracelet in the first place? I scratched my back head nervously.

In fact, the orb of life, which resurrected Jack in a chain reaction with the sorcerer, then settled into Jack's arms, but when he panicked and jumped out of his body, it bounced off the robe that fell around the table. The soft robe acts as a cushion, leaving little noise, and the prowling jack doesn't notice.

"Phew."

You let go of your hands, turn your head back, and exhale. I shook my head for a moment and cleared my head.

'Let's go to the city first.'

I don't think I can figure out what happened here. Moreover, Galik, Samantha, and Miles may be rushing here right now for revenge. With Galik and Samantha out of the picture, Miles will be grinding his teeth to himself as he's done with his life. I was more likely to have something unpleasant happen to me if I encountered it.

Jack decides to pick up the items around him.

'Ah! Before that...'

Jack walks to the edge of the altar. Darkness down there hides the ground. Jack swings his arm lightly. The bracelet on my wrist was heavily twisted and the contents were scattered.

Larynx.

Massive corpses pour out. All the dead bodies, men, women, children and adults, rolled down, bouncing off the wall of the altar.

I looked down and plucked my hands as if my insides were cool. I felt like the thorns on my neck had been removed, and I was surprised that I killed him as much as I did.

You're not surprised there's some twisted corpse in the Demon King's dungeon, are you? '

But there was also definitely something that bothered me. Galik, Samantha and Miles know that there were no such bodies. If they come back here, it'll be weird to think. It was clear there was no time to deal with them as quickly as now. I wanted to throw it to the lava I saw before I arrived, but the monsters roaming around were too dangerous.

'Well, they know I'm Walton, so it doesn't matter.'

After clearing your mind, you walk to the center of the altar and start sweeping the rest of the items into the bracelet. Loot acquired will be slowly checked in the city later. Even the oldest robes were stuffed inside. Several bracelets slammed against each other on the left forearm, making a clear 'whoosh' sound.

'And finally...'

Jack looks down at his feet. You use the bead of light in your hand as a light source to sweep through the magic camp.

You don't like leaving anything behind, do you? '

I felt bad about leaving a magic group like I had resurrected myself. It could have been beneficial to someone else, and it seemed difficult to reuse this place as there were at least three people who knew about it. After pulling out the old robe, you wrap it around a ball of light and hang it around your neck. Then you take out the battle hammer Galik used.

"Hehe!!"

You tighten your whole body and raise the hammer. My muscles hurt, but I couldn't resist. I swing the hammer as hard as I can.

Phew!!!

A heavy battle hammer, coupled with Jack's strength to the power of gravity, strikes the altar violently.
