Cursed Immortality

Chapter 723  Nightmare Eater!

Hearing Nyx's annoying voice, Jacob was slightly glad but mostly annoyed as he replied impassively, "Whatever I do to my body is none of your business. Tell me about this Pubescent Class. This should be your current rank, right? But I clearly remembered you telling me that after the Infancy Class was the Adolescence Class, so why is it different now? How strong are you?"

"What do you mean, it's none of my business? You've almost turned into a skeleton! How the hell are you even alive? No, what is most important is my life is also connected with yours; whatever you're doing with your life will have a direct effect on me! So, don't tell me it's not my business because IT IS!" Nyx's furiously retorted with exasperation. Jacob sighed as he knew Nyx had a point, so he decided to explain a little since he didn't want her nagging voice ringing like flies in his head, "Don't worry, my condition is just like your evolution phases. Currently, I'm evolving into a new rank, and this is a result of that. Skeleton or Human, as long as I'm alive, I don't think it matters too much. Now stop asking meaningless questions and answer me."

"Tsk, tsk, I guess with your personality, being an undead suits you more," Nyx commented with a hint of indignation.

Jacob's eyes narrowed, "I guess you've become more daring after you evolved. It seems I have to do something about it."

"W-wait! I was about to explain! Why are you always like this?" Nyx quickly cried in alarm as she knew Jacob was reaching his limit, so she quickly got to the main point, "I really didn't know that there was the Pubescent Class between the Infancy-Class and Adolescence-Class.

"I only learned this now that my evaluation has been completed. I guess the Adolescence Class held some kind of significance to me, so I knew about it from the start. Anyway, after evolving into the Pubescent Class, all my previous abilities have been strengthened at least fivefold.

"Your Dreamscape Nightmare Realm has also expanded by five times, and the time difference from reality has increased by five times. Now, spending five seconds there is equal to one second in reality. I can also emulate things that I wasn't able to before. As for what rank exactly, we still need to experiment with that.

"The Nightmare Conqueror Seeds limit has also been increased from three to fifteen, thus strengthening the Nightmare Conqueror's overall abilities. Now, even after the Nightmare Conqueror devours someone's dreamscape realm, as long as I don't call it back, the victim will never know the difference.

"Furthermore, in addition to the Dreamscape Nightmare Realm and Nightmare Conqueror innate abilities, I've awakened a new ability: the Dream Invader. Now, I don't need the presence of the Nightmare Conqueror Seed to invade someone's dreamscape realm or even the Dark Nightmare Realm (Dreamscape Realms of Dark Beings). You just need to make eye contact with the victim, and as long as they are not powerful enough, I can easily invade their dreamscape realms.

"Moreover, the best part about this ability is that even if someone is using a fake substitute, as long as they had even a sliver of their consciousness or soul connected with the fake, I can directly infiltrate their main body if I want and then leave without devouring their dreamscape realms.

"Although this is somewhat of a letdown, I guess this ability is quite useful if you want to gather information or torment someone for a very, very long time." Nyx finally concluded her explanation.

Jacob's eyes shimmered with satisfaction. Nyx's abilities were as useful as always, and after they strengthened, he knew his enemies would be in a world of trouble.

However, suddenly, Nyx revealed something in an excited tone, "There is one more thing that is directly beneficial to you."

Jacob's eyes narrowed, "What is it?"

"How about you say something nice about me, and I'll tell you?" Nyx playfully stated.

Jacob coldly replied, "It seems you want to live in the nightmare realm from now on. How's this for a nice thing?"

"Don't you dare! Tsk, what a killjoy. Alright, I'll tell you." Nyx quickly gave in with a rueful tone, "As my nightmare contractor and host, you share a similar fate with me; this also means you'll get to enjoy some privileges as well.

"After I reached the Pubescent Class, you also get an ability related to dreams. It's called the Nightmare Eater. It allows the Nightmare Contractor to infiltrate the target's dreamscape realm, constructing an illusion and causing their soul to degenerate.

"You can then devour the target's dreamscape realm and absorb their entire soul vitality, killing them in the process. But I'll get 50% of whatever you devour, and you can only target a single victim at a time.

"However, this ability required something called Soul Force to activate. Furthermore, if the target's soul force is too powerful than yours, or they somehow see through the illusion, it may injure your soul in an unpredictable manner!

"Nonetheless, knowing you, I know you'll figure it out. Now, rejoice and praise me. After all, you'll get to enjoy such an ability all because of me…"

Jacob completely ignored the last part, and while Nyx continued to rant, he was shocked when he heard about this ability that required soul force to use. Nyx had no idea that Jacob had already awakened it, and it seemed that after Nyx had evolved, his soul force had also been re-elevated to some extent.

Although he was still dissatisfied about giving away 50% of the soul vitality he got from his target, this little price was enough to pay for such an ability. He also learned more about Nyx's usefulness.

Not only was she extremely powerful, almost like a cheat, but she could also bring endless benefits to her contractor. He even wanted to test this Nightmare Eater ability now on someone.

But he held back because he first had to sort out the knowledge about the Spellbind Eyes and re-elevate his Eyes of Judge. After all, now that the time difference between Dreamscape Nightmare Realm and reality time had increased, he could do it in minimum time with little effort.

However, he first must determine whether the Dreamscape Nightmare Realm can emulate his Eyes of Judge now.

But at this moment, Jacob suddenly received a message from one of Autarch's puppets he had planned in this place, and his eyes narrowed. 'The real leader of the Treaty is here and wants to meet me. What is that goblin playing at now?'
