Chapter 86. New Curses

The hallway appeared normal, similar to those on Earth, with rectangular edges and walls on either side. What caught his attention was that the walls weren\'t painted. Instead, they were covered with grass, which initially made Orion think they were painted. Upon closer inspection, he realized the walls were actually covered with light blue grass, not paint.

He hadn\'t seen anything like that on Earth, so when he encountered grass used as paint, he was shocked.

Most importantly, as he touched the grass with his hands, he felt its smoothness. He couldn\'t understand how this wall of grass hadn\'t withered and remained fresh all this time.

\'This is so amazing.\'

He felt excited seeing new things, discovering things he hadn\'t seen before, and encountering uses for objects he never imagined could be used in such ways.

He loved discovering new things and exploring different things. There was a burning desire in his heart to explore—to travel around the world, a dream he always had on Earth. However, due to his living conditions, he couldn\'t afford to travel or embark on explorations, leaving his dreams buried deep inside his heart.

Now that he saw something new, the deep seated desire awakened within him, and he couldn\'t wait to explore this Aethelgard City.

\'But first, I should take a bath. I haven\'t bathed for a week, I guess.\'

He thought as he walked along the hallway and arrived at the door before him.

Just as he was about to open the door, a thought crossed his mind.

\'This place has bathrooms, right? Or do I have to bathe, like in a river? That would be very embarrassing.\'

He shook his head as he opened the door. What appeared in front of him was a circular room with a bed in one corner, a table and a chair on the side, and a wardrobe beside the bed. Orion doubted whether there would be anything in the wardrobe.

But he still went on to check there in case he would find something interesting.

As he opened the wardrobe, to his surprise, Orion found some items inside. To his current self, they weren\'t useless at all. In fact, they were exactly what he needed most, and he unexpectedly found them here.

\'I guess my bad luck isn\'t that bad. Now, let\'s see where the bathroom is.\'

He thought about his find as he turned around to look at the three doors around the edge of the circular room. He noticed that only one of the doors had something written on it.

\'Mana Crystals.\'

He couldn\'t comprehend why a door would be marked with "Mana Crystals" written above it.

Feeling puzzled, he opened the door and saw a white smoke floating in front of him, and at the walls, some more things were written.

\'Put the mana crystals here.\'

After reading the inscription, Orion somewhat understood. If he wasn\'t wrong, this place would be where they had to pay for their mana crystals. However, he couldn\'t comprehend why a ball of white smoke floated in front of him, nor did he understand its purpose.

\'Whatever, let\'s find the bathroom.\'

Putting his thoughts about the mana crystal room aside, he searched the other two rooms. One was a training room, filled with various weapons and training equipment.

The last door finally led to where he wanted to go—a bathroom. However, it was designed to resemble a medieval period bathroom, featuring a small pond with stones placed around its edges, a water source beside it, and a neatly maintained garden on the side.

\'Let\'s take a relaxing bath.\'

He thought as he closed the door behind him and was ready to take his bath.

***

A few hours later, Orion came out after taking a bath, and he felt refreshed after spending some time in the pond. It was the best he had ever felt since coming to this world.

\'These clothes fit me well.\'

He considered this as he looked at the new outfit he had donned. It consisted of a white t-shirt with a collar, over which he wore a blue full-sleeve shirt without buttons. The sleeves of the shirt weren\'t long enough to fully cover his hands, reaching only to his elbows. He found this set of clothes in the wardrobe he opened a moment ago.

He then comfortably sat on the bed and opened his status.

\'Hehe, let\'s see what I got.\'

He thought as he opened his status.

\'Status.\'

[Name: Orion Darkwood]

[Rank: Bronze]

[Talent: Copy Curse: 9%]

[Curse: Null Body, Electrostatic Disruption, Dimensional Dissonance, Velocity Burst, Sacrificial Renewal, Burdened Gravity, Frozen Torment, Detonating Flesh, Shattered Precision, Unbridled Fury, Unyielding Encasement, Energy Overload, Equilibrium, Constant Pull, Constriction\'s Embrace, Torsion Vise]

[Strength: 12]

[Stamina 11]

[Agility: 100]

[Perception: 11]

[Constitution, 11]

[Mana: Nil]

[Skills: Nil]

Looking at the two new curses, a smile appeared on his face. He copied these two curses from Lisa and Vance, respectively, when he shook his hand with them earlier.

[Curse: Constriction\'s Embrace]

[Description: The curse of Constriction\'s Embrace afflicts individuals who possess the extraordinary ability to control and manipulate small domains. While they can create and shape their own distinct areas of influence, this curse ensures that the more they use their talent, the more restricted and confined their own physical body becomes. This curse manifests as a progressive and debilitating tightening of their personal space, leading to severe physical and psychological consequences.]

[Curse: Torsion Vise]

[Description: The curse of Torsion Vise afflicts individuals with spring-based abilities, ensuring that their own body is subjected to severe and deadly physical consequences each time they use their talent. This curse manifests as a brutal, internal force that progressively crushes and twists their bones, muscles, and organs, leading to excruciating pain and eventual physical breakdown.]

He felt depressed as he looked at the description of these curses. He had copied them because the names sounded cool when the notification to copy the curse had displayed in front of him. However, now that he looked at their descriptions, he realized that these two curses only had cool names and nothing else.

\'Is it because of my luck? I have copied three curses since my luck turned bad, and not a single one of them had any unique uses.\'

He sighed, thinking about his luck.

\'System, remove the Torsion Vise from the curse list.\'

[Curse: Torsion Vise will be deleted, do you confirm?]

\'Yes.\'

[Curse: Torsion Vise has been deleted successfully.]

He didn\'t delete the Constriction\'s Embrace because he felt it might have some use, though he wasn\'t sure. He thought it would be better to first check how the curse affected him. So, without much thought, he entered the abyss of darkness and activated the curse.

However, the moment the curse was activated, Orion felt all the negative emotions in his consciousness pour out into his mind. He visualized every moment of despair, sadness, fear of death, anxiety, and every instance of negativity he had ever felt in his two lives resurfacing in his mind.

"Agggahhhh!"

He clutched his head tightly in pain as he experienced those negative emotions over and over again, like a never-ending barrage flooding his mind nonstop.

A moment later, the pain became too much for him to handle, causing him to lose consciousness as his body lifelessly fell onto the bed.
