Chapter 334: Life After Death

Coming back from being dead is not any better than being dead.

Jesse felt like his skin was all wrinkled up, it hurt a lot when it was being stretched back, and his body was so weak that he couldn’t stand, he could only sit in the chair Miserheld provided for him, slumped over like a helpless disabled person, staring in one direction.

Before long, he hadn’t fully regained his ability to speak, the goblin was already standing in front of him, holding a small notepad and asking, "Race."

"Human."

"Place of birth."

"Lo…royal city."

"Name."

"Jack…Slovakia."

"What’s this silly name? Oh well, it doesn’t matter. Making up a fake name often works better than using your real name!"

"Age."

"Eighteen."

"Huh?" the goblin frowned and asked, "You haven’t forgotten everything that happened after you turned eighteen, have you? It’s impossible… impossible to have amnesia… something must be wrong."

"I’m only eighteen," Jesse said. "When I met you… I was just eighteen, Mr. Miserheld."

"I’ve been dealing with a young kid all this time?!" the goblin exclaimed. "Open your mouth!"

Jesse opened his mouth and asked, "Why?"

"Oh my, look at these teeth! You’re really just a young kid, much younger than I thought," the goblin said as he peered inside Jesse’s mouth. He sighed and said, "Never mind, everything seems fine! Now, tell me what trouble you’ve gotten into. I haven’t heard of any poison or curse that can cause death within a limited time."

"Death Knight," Jesse said. "I’ve been affected by the Deathmantle Curse of the Death Knight. Have you heard of it?"

"Oh, I heard that the Orcs created some almost dead battlefields, although I haven’t seen them myself," the goblin scratched his head and said. "But that curse… I’ve never heard of it. People should always remember to learn no matter what, or else they’ll fall behind in time!"

"Anyway, it’s a cursed death curse, and it will bring more trouble after death," Jesse tried to stand up, and all his bones crackled as he moved.

"Biting zombies, or killing ghosts, those are the things," the goblin chuckled and said. "It won’t turn into a super ancient meat bomb that destroys two streets, right?"

Jesse paused for a moment, a related image flashed in his mind, then nodded and said, "Anyway, thank you, Mr. Miserheld."

The goblin put his hands on his waist and said, "Don’t thank me yet. Are you sure that kind of Death Knight curse can be eliminated like this? I have no idea, so I won’t take responsibility. Don’t come looking for me if it doesn’t work!"

"Of course I won’t hold you responsible." Jesse nodded and said, "I have no way to test if it’s really gone yet, but even if it has no effect, I won’t blame you, sir."

"Hey, you." Miserheld said, "But you don’t tell me your real name, or where you’re from. If this medicine really sells well in the future, I want to give you your share of the money. What should we do?"

Jesse said, "If you really want to leave it to me, then find a small box to keep it safe. I’ll come get it when the time comes. If you’re shameless, you can keep it for yourself."

"He’s indeed an interesting guy," the goblin laughed and said. "Let’s settle it like this. If this medicine really helps me defeat that substandard Noggenfogger… Ha! You will definitely get a share."

"Then I’ll wait for your good news, goodbye, Mr. Miserheld."

"Goodbye, Mr. Slovakia," the goblin nodded.

Jesse walked down from Miserheld’s house and took a few breaths by a damp wooden wall of an abandoned house in an empty corner.

The aftereffects of this new medicine were indeed strong, but he managed to get through without the severe fainting Ursula mentioned or the amnesia that Miserheld talked about.

He focused on recalling everything he could remember, from his past life to this one, connecting deeply ingrained memories together to ensure there were no major gaps… It was then that he suddenly noticed a vaguely familiar figure emerging beside him.

He cautiously sidestepped, and the figure turned to look in his direction.

Wait, wasn’t that Molofeel? The rough outline of a wingless succubus.

He rubbed his eyes, and the figure seemed to vanish.

As he refocused his attention, the figure became clear once again.

The image seemed to notice Jesse’s attention and left the wooden wall, walking to the side. Jesse’s eyes followed her.

The succubus suddenly appeared in front of Jesse, staring and asking, "Why can you see me, master?"

"I don’t know," Jesse said confusedly. "I saw a shadow here just now, I thought it was you… Is this a Soul Link issue?"

"Impossible!" Molofeel said. "Even with Soul Link, you can only vaguely sense it, not see it clearly. Did you drink an Invisibility Potion detection? Wait… I’ve been with you since earlier, you haven’t drunk anything other than that strange goblin potion. Could that potion detect invisibility?"

Jesse shook his head, he remembered that the Noggenfogger Elixir in the game only had effects like enlarging, shrinking, becoming light, or turning into a skeleton.

Miserheld’s potion seemed to have no effects other than turning into a skeleton. It might be that they didn’t test it enough or maybe goblins simply didn’t care about those safe "side effects."

In any case, detecting Invisibility Potion is a completely different thing. How could Miserheld’s potion have such ability?

What about Saenor?

Jesse picked up his cloak but didn’t see anything.

"Saenor?"

The imp emerged from under the cloak and asked, "Master?"

He walked out onto the street, gazing at the whole Booty Bay, concentrating, searching for the feeling he had just now as he walked.

Not long after, he sensed a subtle shadow appearing not far from his sight, right where The Salty Sailor Tavern was!

Did he sense the imp living inside it?

Approaching the direction of the shadow, looking inside… Yes, indeed it was that imp.

Is this similar to a Demon Hunter’s demonic vision?

No, he couldn’t sense any living beings, not animals either, only demons.

This is not about detecting invisibility or demonic vision, but rather Detect Demon!

He suddenly learned a skill from the warlock called Detect Demon in the game, but without a mini-map, he needed to focus his mind to see it in his field of vision.

But why couldn’t he see the invisible Saenor? Oh right, Saenor mentioned since they first met that its Phase Shift was much stronger than regular imps, requiring more mana to use. It might take more focus or a stronger detection ability to spot it.

How did he acquire this ability out of nowhere? It had no warning signs, could it be related to his experience transforming into an undead?

Jesse avoided crowded places and went to a corner under a wooden bridge, sitting there recalling everything he had experienced these few days, besides drinking potions, there was nothing else special.

Molofeel couldn’t help but ask, "Master, what’s going on? You’re making me feel very uneasy."

"Making me feel uneasy?" Jesse asked.

Molofeel explained, "I rarely get stared at like this when I’m invisible, so I’ve always been relaxed. I only concentrate as much as possible to make my invisibility more distinct when facing Nathrezim, so I’m afraid there’s something wrong with my invisibility."

"No, it’s not your fault," Jesse said.

"Are you underestimating the eyeless ones?" Saenor chuckled, "I don’t believe you could evade the scrutiny of those many-eyed creatures!"

"Being invisible in front of the evil eye is meaningless," succubus said. "Rushing forward to blind its strange eye is much more effective than lurking!"

"Nonsense!" imp exclaimed.

"Stop teasing, Molofeel, why would Nathrezim see you?" Jesse asked.

"They can’t see, but they can sense the presence of demons, master," Molofeel said. "They, like those long-lived Demon Lords, possess the ability to feel the presence of demons. When they realize you are nearby, they will… they will look at me just like you do…"

Thinking about Nathrezim Dread Lord, Jesse had a guess in his mind.

Could this be the power left by Teron Gorefiend?

But if it is Gorefiend’s ability, why is it only now starting to show?

Of course, Jesse remembered when he suddenly felt something like "Gorefiend’s Grasp" activated in that rundown Dark Iron temple, albeit very subtly. Maybe it was the ripple of magic caused by a passing magic wand.

After returning to Stormwind with Vereesa, he no longer felt anything unusual.

Why did Detect Demon come out just now?

"By the way, Molofeel," Jesse said. "Can you smell any strange smell of decay on me?"

Molofeel leaned in close to his neck and said, "No… Master, does this mean that the curse troubling you has disappeared?"

"I’m not sure," Jesse said. "To be certain, I must return to the church in Stormwind and ask the priests to help me."

Although Jesse said that, he really couldn’t feel the discomfort that had been lingering around him before.

But he didn’t dare to be happy immediately, after all, the last time his carelessness almost cost him his life because of a curse… Going back would take at least ten days or even longer, thinking about this made him feel impatient, wishing he could teleport back immediately.

By the way, there is another way to verify, which is to drink tea.

However, what kind of tea is served at the Cathedral of Light? Because he was too concerned about the Deathmantle incident last time, he forgot to ask Friar Fadin about the type of tea.

I wonder if Booty Bay has any priests?
