《This world is strange》Chapter 87. The camp
Advertisement
As they walked into the main tent they looked around and was shocked from the scene. Everyone from the camp were lying on the ground in their own blood.
They looked for everyone's pulse and tried to find a living person. Just as they walked to the other side they heard someone grasping for air.
Leonard was lying to the other side of the map. He had a large cut on his chest, but was still alive. He caughes up blood.
"Hah... You are late..."
More blood came up.
"What happened here? Who attacked you?"
He looked at Joseph with a grin on his face.
"It was Gre... Gregory..."
"Who is that?"
"One of the newb... newbies..."
Catherine crouched down next to him and put her right hand on his chest. A white light eminated around the wound.
"It might take a while, but I'll get you on your foot."
Leonard tried to laugh, but instead he just caughed up more blood.
"I know it's impossible... just leave me be..."
Catherine sighed.
"It is not impossible, but stop talking. It makes it harder for you to survive."
He smiled at her and closed his eyes.
'Did he die?'
Joseph checked his pulse. There was still a faint one. It seemed like he passed out though.
"I'll guard you two while you heal him. How much time will it take?"
"Just a few."
"Really? That wound lookes grave!"
"Nothing really. Only a little part of his left lung got cut. I can just put it together, like the other wounds on his body, then remove the blood from the places where it shouldn't be. Then replenish his energy and done."
Joseph was dumbfounded. She literally said that she will bring him back from the coffin.

"Amazing."
"You'll learn it after you get even more mana. I think if you would try it, you would just pass out. Now let me concentrate on this."
He did not say anything, just went to the entrance of the tent and looked at the ground. There was a footprint that had blood on it.
'How did we miss it?'
He found the whole thing strange. Firstly, how did one person kill everyone in there? Second, where are the guards? They should've been here. Third, where did he go? The footprints lead to the city. But they did not pass him on the way up.
Joseph went back in the tent and he sit down on the table to concentrate. It took him a few minute, but he restored his mana core's connection. He felt like, he just woke up from a good sleep. His energy returned and was more awake, than before.
He waited for Catherine to fix Leonard up.

Apollyon's Curse
Within the pages of folklore and fantasy, tales of people who chase after the dream of eternity, of living forever, rarely find a happy ending. They are either struck by the grim truth of reality, give up, and return to mortality or face a ghastly realization of their wishes. The latter often the worse fate, as they come to realize, only far too late, that what they sacrificed was worth far more than the time they gained. Ultimately, the common thread in these stories is that “immortality is as much a curse as it is a blessing”. People either realize it early and give up or are doomed to inevitably face its consequences. In the world Enrich lives in, that saying does hold merit. Every pathway towards eternal life has shackles of its own. They bring those high above down to the ground, evening the playing field. It is thanks to these fundamental laws that ambitious mortals are able to defy the heavens and achieve immortality themselves. The variety of methods result in each of these bindings varying in intensity and degree of freedom. Enrich’s path doesn't break this trend. Though, after what he did to himself, most wouldn’t even consider him a living thing anymore. On the day of his ascension, a world’s worth of souls were melted and recast. On that day, the human’s path had reached its conclusion, recast into Apollyon. An artifact, a weapon, is eternal, after all. As for the curse? The payment will be made, as it must. So why not offload the curse to someone else? Mortals throw their lives away for all manner of petty reasons, noble or otherwise, especially in desperation. Eventually, someone will be willing to foot the bill. Most will if given the chance. The bait is far too tempting, after all. Power, status, knowledge. All at their fingertips. If only they say “yes”. And Apollyon is very willing to help any lost souls. If they give up everything in return, of course.
