In the void, the unknown being screamed in agony.
It had no idea what kind of being had its eyes on it.
It wanted to get rid of this bastard right away.
Gluttony, on the other hand, was unwilling to let go.
As for 'table manners'?
What a joke, who was talking about table manners? It was more important to swallow the food in one's mouth.
So, Gluttony bit hard, chewed and swallowed at the same time.
"T-This is delicious!"
Gluttony conveyed the thought to its big brother.
"Since it's delicious, eat more."
Kieran replied calmly.
Kieran never worried about Gluttony eating too much. In fact, it was hard for Gluttony to eat until he was full, and recently, he was only satisfied with Starbeck's cooking.
Now that food was delivered to his doorstep, Kieran didn't mind letting Gluttony eat as much as he wanted.
With Kieran's reply, Gluttony went all out.
He was holding back at first.
But now?
Gluttony bit down on the unknown being's mouth, spreading like the rising tide.
The unknown being was so scared that it almost screamed.
It knew what this terrifying being was trying to do.
Gluttony wanted to envelop it and swallow it whole.
It didn't doubt that Gluttony could do it. Even though its body was big enough, it would only make Gluttony feel fuller.
It couldn't go on like this!
The unknown being's heart sank. That indescribable, indescribable body was split in half just like that.
Half of it was free.
The other half was swallowed by Gluttony.
Feeling the remaining half of its body, the unknown being's heart was bleeding.
It wasn't just that half of its accumulated power was gone.
Its divinity was damaged as well.
Even its divinity was in danger of being degraded.
Resentment!
Hatred!
It really wanted to swallow Gluttony, but it knew that if it really did that, it would be Gluttony who would be swallowed.
It had tried to swallow Gluttony.
It couldn't find Gluttony's body.
It was just a mouth.
A mouth that kept swallowing.
The thing it swallowed appeared in the void, in the body of the strong ant.
Even the unknown being couldn't understand what was going on.
How could there be such an illogical monster in the world?
The inexplicable existence sensed that the huge mouth was about to approach again.
"You brute without any table manners!"
"I expel you!"
A part of its' table manners' was activated right away. Gluttony was chased out of the place without a sound and returned to Kieran's body.
The mysterious existence heaved a sigh of relief.
But before he could heave a sigh of relief, it got stuck in his throat.
Because …
Gluttony was back!
Following the 'table etiquette' ritual that it had set up, following the mental energy that shouldn't have existed, he quickly approached it step by step.
"How is this possible?!"
The unknown existence growled in disbelief as it sensed the vast mental energy.
It didn't have eyes. If it had eyes, they would be wide open.
That was a spiritual power that could already reach a similar level as the Great Demon King, yet it still maintained a frail appearance. The wisps of Divine Fire especially did not match the Great Demon King's level.
Could it be …
Was everything a trap?
The unknown existence's heart skipped a beat. It recalled its old enemies and those bastards who wanted to kill it. The more it thought about it, the more it felt like a trap.
This was a trap!
It was a trap aimed at him from start to finish!
"I won't let you get what you want!"
The unknown existence said fiercely.
Just as Gluttony was about to enter the 'table manners', the unknown existence moved.
Instantly, a round dining table appeared in the void.
On top of the wooden table was a glass tray that was slightly smaller than the round table. In the middle of the glass tray was a black vase, empty inside.
A smooth silver plate appeared beside the tray and Kieran's projection stood on the plate.
He sized up the scene with interest.
At first glance, he saw the existence in the void.
He couldn't describe the existence's appearance.
It wasn't that he couldn't describe it, but in Kieran's eyes, the existence was changing.
A moment ago, it looked like a giant octopus.
A moment later, it turned into a starfish.
The former could be used as an iron plate.
The latter could be used as soup.
Kieran added.
Kieran looked at the existence and the unknown existence looked back at Kieran. It naturally sensed some malicious thoughts from Kieran.
"I won't let you go!"
The unknown existence said.
Then, when it noticed Gluttony was only a step away from it, the unknown existence laughed with malicious intent.
"I admit, I miscalculated.
But I didn't fail. "
The man emphasized, then said proudly, "You're right, you're right.
"The 'table manners', food cannot be wasted, but it can be traded!
If you run into something you don't like, skip it and move it to someone else!
Since you are still in my 'table manners', I can trade for your food — don't worry, it's not just trading, there's also a curse from me, the host!
I curse you to meet the enemy that hates you the most! "
The moment its words subsided, the black vase on the dining table spat out a black mist.
An invisible giant hand spun the glass tray, pulling the illusory Kieran away from the unknown existence and further away.
It was really further away.
Kieran's figure vanished from the tray.
Something else was born from the tray.
It was a wagon.
The golden chariot instantly broke free from the dining plate, and even the entire dining table was crushed.
The unknown existence didn't even grunt before it was crushed by the wagon that seemed to cover the entire sky. It was crushed into nothingness and vanished into thin air.
The four figures in the wagon didn't feel anything.
A man and two women were sitting opposite each other.
The youngest child was sitting on the man's knee.
The man was leaning back in his chair, sitting in a lazy posture yet having an indescribable majesty. Just by sitting there, he was like the sun shining down on the land. On his knee was a little girl.
Her face was young and innocent, her eyes were 70% similar to the man's.
The little girl was rubbing the stubble on the man's chin, laughing from time to time.
Amidst the laughter, the man's face melted instantly, showing a kind and fatherly smile.
The two ladies were also smiling, but only to the man and the child.
The atmosphere between the two of them was a little strange.
One was being fair.
The other was being wicked.
Both of them exchanged gazes and turned away at the same time.
The little girl saw her two mothers and quickly pulled her father's sleeve.
"Dad, I've turned the wagon around!
We'll be back at the inn soon!
"I already miss Aunt Rhinx very much."
You can't call her aunt.
You have to call her big sister. "
The fair and abiding female Knight beside her corrected her.
"Yes, you have to call her big sister, not aunt."
The egotistical lady immediately chimed in.
Then, the topic was unknowingly diverted. The atmosphere in the carriage instantly calmed down. The little girl winked at her father with a smile. The father quietly gave his daughter a thumbs up.
Then, like any kind father, he caressed his daughter's head.
The moment his daughter couldn't see, the father's eyes shone with a golden brilliance.
The wagon sped up.
It vanished into thin air in an instant.
After the wagon vanished, there was nothing left, as if nothing had happened.
…
Inside a luxurious palace.
Broker placed all three intact [Philosopher's Stones] into the magic circle before him.
It was a magic circle formed by a circle and a triangle.
The triangle was on the outside and the circle was on the inside.
There was a special fey on each corner of the triangle.
At the top was a head. Although the head was chopped off, the snake hair on the head was still spitting out its vicious tongue.
On the left corner was an eye, the size of a fist, shining with Thunder.
On the right corner was some snake skin. The thin and light snake skin was pressing down on the ground, as if it contained an entire world.
The three complete [Philosopher's Stone] were placed at the intersection of the triangle and the circle.
After making sure everything was in order, Broker heaved a breath of relief.
"Only one last step left!"
Broker muttered to himself.
Then, at that very moment, Broker felt the presence of the curse.
"That damned crazy woman!"
Broker laughed coldly in a low voice.
Of course, he knew what was going on.
Even though he chose to go into hibernation for the sake of his plan, he knew everything that happened in the big city like the back of his hand.
'Wu', the famous Wisher.
He would have to face Broker sooner or later.
Because Wu was on Kieran's side.
Besides, Wu's abilities were too much of an eyesore to Broker.
Although he had gone through layers of setup, he couldn't fully confuse Wu.
Once Wu saw through his tricks …
With that thought in mind, Broker chose a simple setup.
The first time he was cursed, he chose to endure it forcefully to numb Wu. The second time would be the start of his counterattack.
With that thought in mind, Broker walked into the magic circle without a second thought.
This was the most crucial part of his next plan. He had poured in almost everything he had to set it up. Even if it was used to counter that crazy woman's curse, it would be overkill.
So, Broker waited patiently for that crazy woman to be taught a lesson.
Only then could he calm his rage.
However, Broker soon realized something wasn't right.
The power of the curse was much stronger than he expected!
No!
It was much stronger!
It wasn't a level that the Wisher could reach. Even a player who was about to acquire a Unique Title of Curse couldn't reach this level.
Ssss, Ssss!
The snake's hair stood up high and gave out a long hiss. It was like the beginning of a domino sequence. The eyes that could nurture Thunder started to observe left and right. Some of the snake's skin even had the mirage of mountains and seas.
Three [Philosopher's Stones] were flickering back and forth.
Broker, who was standing in the middle of the magic circle, was affected right away.
'No!
I can't let this continue! '
Feeling the power of the curse, Broker knew something unexpected had happened, so he had to activate his backup plan.
However, right at that moment …
A crushing pain came from below.
Broker instinctively defended himself with his hands and tightened his legs.
Then, before he could redeem himself, the crushing pain came again.
Once, twice, thrice.
Veins popped up on Broker's forehead. He couldn't stand anymore, all he could do was kneel in the middle of the magic circle.
At that moment, the magic circle automatically entered its counterattack mode.
It acted according to Broker's arrangement and used the most powerful method to strike back at the first person who cast the curse.
Three complete [Philosopher's Stones] were enough to complete a holy [Great Wish Spell], not to mention that there were so many offerings!
It was completed smoothly.
It could even be considered as beautiful.
However, Broker wasn't happy at all.
He felt the presence approaching him at an extraordinary speed. He didn't know what happened, so he endured the pain and activated his final escape plan.
A bright flash later, Broker vanished from the palace.
…
"I don't think that bastard Broker will be cursed by you a second time.
He must have some defensive measures!
He might even counter it! "
Rachel couldn't help but try to persuade her friend when she saw her friend lined up 10 cursed scarecrows on the floor.
"I know.
That's why I did a divination!
This is my best chance! The Wisher isn't good at cursing but I will use my best way to make the curse even more perfect! "
After saying that, 'Wu' took out the sledgehammer from her sleeves again and started smashing the 10 Cursed Scarecrows in front of her.
Kaboom, Kaboom, Kaboom!
Rachel covered her face when she saw the crushed scarecrows.
She knew where the first point of impact was when her friend smashed the scarecrows.
Scary!
Rachel quietly backed out of the living room.
…
Light flashed.
Kieran appeared in the palace.
Glancing over the luxurious palace with vigilance, Kieran's eyes were glued to the magic circle on the floor.
The three pieces on the outside had lost their original power and were distorted. Kieran didn't recognize them, but he recognized the [Philosopher's Stone].
"Three complete [Philosopher's Stone]!"
I knew it … "
"That bastard was here."
Kieran squinted his eyes.
The reason why he slowed down Gluttony and allowed Wu to complete the table ritual was because he heard Wu's description.
Besides, with Gluttony's previous devouring and digestion, Kieran was sure that Wu wasn't lying. Everything was real.
However, he didn't expect that bastard Broker to run so fast.
But it wasn't like he didn't have any clues.
Kieran turned around and looked at the surroundings.
Some things proved that Broker had been here for a long time.
"Did he stay here after disappearing without a trace?"
This magic circle … "
While Kieran was still observing, a dash of blue and white light appeared in the center of the palace and formed an oval door.
The moment the door appeared, a strange voice came from behind it.
"I am willing to pay the price you asked for!
Please help me! "
The voice was hurried and weak.
It sounded very familiar.
It was …
Pol!
