“As you know, I’ve inherited a special lineage that allows me to summon the Sacred Condemnation Demoness. I’m not from Aiur Town. I’m living in disguise as I didn’t want to be disturbed. I’m from Catherine Estate under the jurisdiction of the Dark Shadow City. I’m a successor of the Catherine Estate, but I had no choice but to leave Catherine Estate and live in Aiur Town. If you can do me a favor, I can hand over the ownership of Catherine Estate to you.”

Inoch let out a sigh and said after gathering her thoughts.

-The ownership of an estate? Does that mean I’m going to be an overlord in the game after agreeing to her request?-

-The problem is, owning an estate doesn’t really give me any benefits…hang on, if I really become the owner of Catherine Estate, I might be able to conduct a lot of experiments there.-

Besides, it was not like Inoch could offer anything else apart from the ownership of the estate!

If that was the case, he would reluctantly accept the ownership of the estate!

“Alright, what do you want me to do?” Chen Mo asked immediately.

“You will find the previous lord, my father’s relics at Catherine Estate. If you successfully become the owner of Catherine Estate, I want my father’s relics back,” Inoch said with a determined look.

“Not a problem,” Chen Mo nodded.

Even though he had no idea what Inoch wanted him to retrieve for her, it did not really matter now. Once he became the lord of the estate, he would be able to conduct all kinds of experiments on it.

“This is the proof of ownership of Catherine Estate. Come see me if you’ve decided to claim it,” Inoch let out a relieved sigh. She was worried that the adventurer would not agree with her request.

System Notification: You’ve obtained “The Contract of Inheriting Catherine Estate”!

The Contract of Inheriting Catherine Estate: Special item, non-tradeable, Player with the contract can inherit Catherine Estate.

“I’ve given you the contract. It’s time for you to fulfill your end of the deal. Let me go!” Inoch glared at Chen Mo.

“Of course, Miss Inoch, I’m known for keeping my words among the adventurers,” Chen Mo uttered some bullshit. Since he had made a deal with Inoch, it might be favorable to improve their relationship, even though Inoch’s Friendliness toward him was most likely negative at the moment.

Chen Mo untied the rope on Inoch’s hands and helped her put on her clothes. He said, “Miss Inoch, you may have to untie yourself. I’ shall excuse myself.”

Chen Mo left the room and used the skill Disguise.

He was now equipping the title “The Corrupted”. He had no idea if the folks of the town would arrest him when they saw him. Most importantly, Inoch’s Servitude toward him was currently 10. Chen Mo had no idea what it actually did, but he knew it was not something positive in the NPCs’ eyes. Chen Mo had no idea what was going to happen to him when he was caught by the NPCs while his Servitude value was not empty, but he still had some matters to attend to. He had no intention to be arrested now.

Chen Mo sneaked out of Aiur Town with the skill Disguise.

He had completed his main goal in Rookies Village, but there were still two things he had to do.

It went without saying that the first thing had something to do with Glacier Gaming Club and the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf.

It was extremely important, but there was still some time left until Glacier Gaming Club’s attempt to slay the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf. Chen Mo was not in a rush since he still had around nineteen hours left.

The second thing was what he wanted to do right away. He had long decided to do it, but he was only confident that he could achieve it just recently.

He believed its difficulty was only slightly lower than the quest “The Tryst”!

“HAHA, brave adventurer, are you willing to defend my precious Jadeite Pheasants from the Vultures on my behalf? I, Brad shall repay your kindness!”

Chen Mo went to the east of Aiur Town and found Brad, the place where he earned the title “The Corrupted”.

“Of course I am,” Chen Mo accepted the quest. Brad immediately waved his hand and teleported Chen Mo into the instance of the quest.

A proud Jadeite Pheasant appeared on the spacious grassland when the quest began. The Vultures dived at the pheasant from the sky. Chen Mo did not even bother looking at the Vultures. He fired a bolt at the Jadeite Pheasant.

System Notification: You have brutally killed the target you’re supposed to be protecting. -10 World Reputation!

…

System Notification: You have brutally killed the target you’re supposed to be protecting. -10 World Reputation!

…

Several System Notifications popped up. Chen Mo’s World Reputation soon reached -100!

System Notification: Your World Reputation has reached -100. All functional NPCs will no longer provide you with any service. You will now revive in the Land of Outcast when you die!

“Asshole, what have you done!”

Just like last time, Brad furiously ran toward Chen Mo when the System Notification appeared.

Last time, Chen Mo was not strong enough to take on Brad, but this time, he almost had a full set of Purple Equipment.

Besides, he felt that Brad was not as strong as Inoch!

Slime King’s Summon!

However, Chen Mo did not dare to underestimate the NPC either. He quickly backed away and summoned a Mutated Slime.

A Mutated Black Slime appeared.

Brad was a plump man. His speed was lower than Inoch’s. He was struggling even more to catch up to Chen Mo. The NPC was having trouble going closer to Chen Mo who was abusing the Mutated Black Slime as an obstacle. Meanwhile, his HP dropped rapidly after he was continuously hit by Chen Mo’s bolts.

“You prick, I’ve asked you to protect my precious pheasants, but not only did you slaughter them, you even dare to attack me too! You’re done for, you will have no place to go to in the human world!” Brad yelled furiously.

Chen Mo completely ignored the NPC’s threatening. He kept firing his bolts at the NPC.

-Are you kidding me now? I’ve only come because I’m prepared to kill my character again! I’m going to grind the negative reputation until the end of the world, until I have the highest negative reputation in the game!-

When Chen Mo obtained the title “The Corrupted” after reaching -100 World Reputation, he already had an idea of capturing Brad to grind the negative reputation continuously. Unfortunately, he was not strong enough to take on the NPC before, but now that he was strong enough, he had to give it a try!

He did not care how low his World Reputation was as long as he could unlock more titles. He could just kill his character and start over again.

He had unlocked the title “The Corrupted” with -100 World Reputation. He wondered what other titles he would unlock when his World Reputation reached -1000, or even -10000.

“Asshole! Prick! I’m going to kill you!” Brad kept yelling furiously, yet it did not stop his HP from dropping.

His build was massive, and his HP was pretty high too. Chen Mo roughly estimated the NPC’s HP to be at least one hundred and fifty thousand. The NPC’s defense was very high too. Each of his bolts only dealt around sixty to seventy damage, but the extra poison damage completely disregarded the target’s defense. As a result, Brad’s HP was falling at an insane rate still.

“Piss off, you black piece of shit!”

Brad was enraged after losing around thirty thousand HP. He started using his skills.

His body bloated like a meat bomb and rammed heavily into the Mutated Black Slime!

The skill did not have a high damage, but it was able to knock the target flying over a distance of ten meters.

However, Brad’s eyes immediately widened.

The black monster did not even budge when he rammed into it with his Meat Bomb Collision!

The Mutated Black Slime looked at Brad with a blank expression. What was he even thinking? Did he not know how dense and heavy it was? The reason why its defense was so high was mainly because of its shocking density.

Brad used another skill when the first did not work according to his plan. He came to a stop and raised his right foot which inflated crazily!

Chen Mo raised his brows. He uttered without any hesitation, “Slime King’s Roar!”

Chen Mo jumped into the air after using the Slime King’s Roar just as Brad stomped the ground with his enlarged foot.

A deafening blast took place. The green land rippled like the surface of the water after the stomp!

“Such a close call! This guy isn’t easy to deal with either!”

Chen Mo let out a relieved sigh. Luckily, he was able to react in time. The Mutated Black Slime was unable to jump into the air in time. It had suffered seven hits consecutively. If it was Chen Mo, he would have to suffer at least four hits without the extra jumping height from the Slime King’s Roar.

The Mutated Black Slime lost 5 HP from every hit. The damage was utterly shocking. Chen Mo would have died from it.

However, it seemed like Brad only had two skills. He did not have a chance to use the Meat Bomb Collision on Chen Mo, nor was his skill that shook the ground like an earthquake able to hit Chen Mo when he was under the buffs of the Slime King’s Roar.

Five minutes later, Brad only had 1 HP left. He fell to the ground in serious injuries. Chen Mo went up to him and adeptly tied him up.
