Chapter 1043: Soul Contract
“Watch out. That curse is made by sacrificing his organ, and this time, his left arm!”
“…” Nathan’s expression turned grimmer. He understood what it meant to sacrifice one’s own body for a curse.
Earlier, Iskar used his blood as a catalyst. The power alone almost doubled. If he sacrificed his own limb, it meant losing that limb for his entire life. The power of that curse would be multiple times stronger than the previous curse.
At the same time, Iskar’s life was still in danger. Nathan’s bullets were still coming for him.
Iskar wasn’t afraid of these bullets. He used his blood to create a barrier. Even if it wasn’t strong, he just had to maintain it until he got away from the bullets. After all, these bullets weren’t controlled directly by Nathan.
Still, these bullets were so strong that they broke his barrier. Iskar cleverly spun his body in a way that he could get away from all of this. Even when some bullets hit his body, he just had to tweak his body to let the bullets hit his arm instead of his body. It was useless anyway, so there was nothing wrong with him sacrificing that arm to protect the body.
Meanwhile, Nathan would be facing the biggest crisis of his life. If Nathan got hit by the curse, there was no telling what would happen to his body. Even Anubis looked troubled by the curse.
Nathan clicked his tongue and said, “There’s no other choice.”
Nathan didn’t have the special element that could clash with a curse like Nidhogg’s chaos fire or Jinwu’s sun fire.
However, he still had one element he was used to, and it was something that could even freeze the curse.
That was right. Now that the situation had turned dire, there was no need to hide it anymore.
Nathan took out a few magazines and activated the Soul Contract.
The temperature decreased sharply, which startled Iskar.
“Huh?” Iskar didn’t know anything about the ice element. After all, a normal person could only have one element. There wasn’t a case like Evelyn among normal people.
But Nathan suddenly halted his steps and waved his hand.
The chilling wind moved according to his will and actually froze the black beam.
“What?!” Iskar dropped his jaw to the ground. What in the world happened? Did Nathan just use an ice element? But this kind of power wouldn’t be something a normal ice element could release.
In that instant, he realized it was an absolute ice element. The only problem was that Nathan didn’t have any familiars that had Time or even the Absolute Ice elements. So, how could he use it? Besides, there was also the time he suddenly teleported behind him as though he was using a space element.
The moment he used that absolute ice, Iskar realized Nathan had something even more special… something that could allow him to have multiple elements. Still, the knowledge about the Innate Ability wasn’t that common, so he couldn’t figure out that power.
“This is unfair. This is unfair. This is unfair! How can you have everything?” Iskar gritted his teeth. Nathan had unique familiars, the power of multiple elements, and even glory in academics. How could a person have it all? It was unfair.
He had done a lot of things to reach this level, but Nathan, who enrolled at the academy just a year ago, managed to achieve all that.
There was no more hesitation in his heart. “Ahhhhh!”
More and more dark energy rushed out of his body. Before, he sacrificed only an arm, but this time, he sacrificed his leg and left eye. He had lost the sensation in his leg because of Anubis’ attack anyway, so there was no point in keeping it.
His left eye became blind right after.
“Crush him!” Iskar shouted in frustration, sending forth his curse. The curse didn’t turn into a skull shape anymore. Instead, it was like a skeleton.
It rushed toward Nathan, not caring about anything else.
Anubis and Qilin came in its way, combining their power to weaken the curse.
However, the skeleton actually punched Anubis’ barrier, shattering it at the same time as the hexagram. Then, it skipped on the ground and closed the gap between it and Nathan.
Nathan’s expression turned solemn. He gathered everything he had on this one shot.
Right before the curse arrived, Nathan waved his hand, covering it in a thick layer of ice. The curse fell down like a normal skeleton, but the dark energy that formed it soared.
“Not good. Watch out. It’s going to come at you!” Anubis shouted while rushing to Nathan, thinking about what to do. This was a strength that even a divine beast like him could afford to stop in his current state.
’Tsk. If only I had one million ena, I could stop it.’ Anubis gritted his teeth.
Nathan could see that the curse energy was corroding the ice at such a high speed. At this rate, the curse would free itself and reach him before Anubis or Qilin could arrive.
Nathan’s heart sank. ’Is there something I can use?’
Nathan looked around, but there was nothing that could stop the curse. However, an idea came to his mind.
He had never used this power openly, but this ability might be able to stop the curse of this level. After all, this ability was considered even higher than divinity according to all his divine beasts.
Even though he had to reveal his biggest trump card, it should be fine. Sera and Flora had known about this, and Iskar would die in this place. No one else would know this secret.
Nathan raised his hand and formed a Soul Contract.
“!!!” Iskar widened his eyes. “What’s that?”
’In exchange for 10,000 ena, this contract shall be named Nathan, and he will be Nathan in this world for three seconds.’
He didn’t know how much ena required, so he just gave a reasonable amount since he couldn’t afford the contract to fail for a certain amount of ena.
Fortunately, the contract was successful. The curse broke free from the ice and moved toward Nathan, only to change its way to the contract.
It hit the contract and corroded it until there was nothing left.
