All My Professions Have Divine-Level Talents Chapter 184 - 134: Month: Storage and Coldness 4
"But if you really need this guy, we can just use another one with slightly lesser cris for the public execution. It’s all the sa, anyway," the Warden explained, puffing on a dark cigar.
"This one will do," Ai Jin said, patting the frail-looking man’s shoulder as if inspecting goods.
The man’s hands and feet were bound tightly, leaving him propped against the wall like a stiff rod.
Clamps held his eyelids permanently open, and his mouth was stuffed and gagged.
He could make no sound, nor could he ever close his eyes.
Just being restrained like this was an excruciating form of torture.
Ai Jin said harshly, "For scum like this, no death is too cruel."
"By the way... about taking him," Ai Jin said, looking at the Warden.
"Haha, don’t you worry, Brother Ai Jin. This man couldn’t withstand our interrogation and committed suicide."
"Of course, we’d also appreciate it if you could send us a recording of his death, Brother Ai Jin. Just to put our minds at ease."
"Haha, I knew I could count on you." Ai Jin shook his hand, and a bracelet passed into the Warden’s palm.
"We’re leaving!"
Leading the man out of the Judgent Hall, Lu Cang looked back and couldn’t help but sigh internally.
’They brought a death row inmate out so easily.’
’So this is... corruption.’
’If I weren’t here to kill him, but to save him, would it have been just as easy?’
The thought sent a shiver down his spine.
’In the future, if I have an enemy, I can’t let them fall into soone else’s hands.’
’Otherwise, who knows if so powerful and influential person might just whisk them away?’
However, the bribes this ti had cost over a hundred thousand Gold Coins in total.
It was no small expense.
If not for such a massive financial assault, it wouldn’t have been so easy to get the man out.
Besides, money alone probably wouldn’t have been enough.
’The prestige of a Level 6 Enchanter, my own current reputation... those were also important. Maybe they also took into account my acquaintance with Kumironi. Is that why they released him?’
For the next two days, Lu Cang assisted Ai Jin in his enchantnt chamber, helping him complete the Enchantnt.
He watched with his own eyes as Ai Jin lted a living person into strange, flesh-and-blood Runes...
In the instant the man’s life vanished, consud in a wicked Sacrifice...
A question couldn’t help but flash through Lu Cang’s mind.
’Am I doing the right thing?’
’To use a living person as a blood sacrifice, regardless of what unforgivable cris he committed or for what purpose... isn’t that an act of evil in itself?’
But then another thought occurred to him.
’On the day he killed those parents in front of their children, did he ever stop to think that what he was doing was wrong?’
’I’m doing this to refine a Space Container that can hold living beings. That’s why I’m using him for the Sacrifice.’
’But that doesn’t an what I’m doing is evil.’
’On the contrary... I’m abiding by my own principles. I haven’t hard the innocent. I act according to my code, and I am punishing a villain.’
’I’ve never pursued absolute good anyway. As long as my actions don’t betray my conscience.’
’That’s enough.’
Lu Cang’s thoughts beca clear again.
Over the two days, Lu Cang periodically perford Soul Infusion for Ai Jin’s Enchantnt.
The rest of the ti, he sat in a corner of the room, reading Ai Jin’s notes on Enchantnt.
There were many recipes for Enchantnt.
Recipes for Storage Rings, Storage Bracelets, and Storage Bags.
Enchantnt recipes for clothing, the crafting process for Magic Wands, thods for enchanting a Ring...
The materials and their various uses were dizzyingly diverse.
Since Lu Cang didn’t have the Enchanter Profession, he struggled to learn, finding many parts difficult to understand.
It seed so theories could only be grasped after acquiring the Profession.
But during these two days, Lu Cang watched Ai Jin perform the Enchantnt and crafting firsthand...
Extracting substances from Special materials, concentrating them into Runes, embedding the Runes into equipnt using a Special thod, and arranging them in a specific order within the item’s internal structure...
This was how an Enchantnt Effect was created.
’If I had the Enchanter Profession, I could easily make my own equipnt in the future...’
But it was just a fleeting thought.
Now that he had advanced to a Level 2 Warrior, the score required to upgrade Decryption Scholar to Level 3 had already risen to an astronomical 100 points.
’If I took on the Enchanter Profession as well...’
Lu Cang didn’t dare to imagine it.
He already felt it was a bit risky to upgrade his Warrior Profession to Level 3, since he hadn’t comprehended the Extre Battle Intent himself.
Lu Cang planned to upgrade his Warrior Profession to Level 3 only after comprehending his own Extre Battle Intent.
CLANG—
As the final blood-black Rune was driven into the bracelet, Lu Cang felt the item co to life.
Despite being made of a jade-like material, it squird for a mont as if it were made of flesh and blood.
After that slight squirm, it fell still once more.
[Life Storage Bracelet]
"I made the Space extra-large. It should be able to et the needs you ntioned."
"It’s also thanks to the sheer purity of the soul you provided..."
The look Ai Jin gave Lu Cang was extrely complicated.
He even suspected Lu Cang might have killed a massive number of infants.
But...
’What kind of child could kill hundreds of thousands of infants?’
’It’s just too bizarre.’
Moreover, these souls held not a trace of resentnt. In fact, Ai Jin could feel them continuously emitting thoughts of praise.
’These are definitely not souls obtained through slaughter and torture.’
In this world, everyone had their own secrets.
Ai Jin himself hadn’t beco a Level 6 Enchanter without a few fateful encounters and secrets of his own. He was well aware that the clients who sought him out often had little secrets they couldn’t share.
