GOT IT
Although Immortika didn't reveal the mysterious being, it was whoever it was, it was extremely powerful because this Liber C to Jacob because he wasn't privy to this information yet, which shocked Jacob to the core. However, what made him even more shocked was that despite keeping the Liber Chaotica within the Infinity Pendant, it left its aura on Jacob every time he took it out to try opening it, and he wasn't strong enough to even detect this aura. But this aura would've vanished once he completed the first phase.
Yet, once Jacob had taken out the Liber Chaotica again, he would be infected with this aura again, and apparently, a legendary rank or higher rank existence with curse affinity or anything remotely related could easily detect it on him.
Lastly, Jacob also discovers why he cannot open it and can barely move its cover, and this book cannot be moved without being enveloped in his hex mana.
It turned out that this book was never meant to be read by just anyone. Instead, it was meant
to be inherited by establishing a bond with a worthy person, and that person acknowledged by this book can open it and read its context.
Jacob was able to move it and even open its cover because this book was created with the Cursed Path Glory Gem as its core. The concept of the Sin Curses of Pride and Wrath also came from the Cursed Path Glory Gem, which shocked Jacob because he knew the implications behind this.
Anyhow, since the Cursed Path Glory Gem was the origin and core of this Liber Chaotica, Jacob, as the gem's master, was naturally able to bypass the restrictions put on this book, no matter how strong they were. It's just that he didn't have enough mana to do so.
Elia was attracted to him because Liber Chaotica had the inheritance she needed, and Jacob was also glad that he had discovered that this book's aura was so nefarious that it could infect him before it was too late.
Elia completely believed Jacob because her reaction and that raging desire within her couldn't be faked. She nodded with a pale face before she reluctantly looked towards Jacob, "T-thank
you!"
"You should only thank yourself for choosing the right path." Jacob smiled meaningfully, "But before you can have the Liber Chaotica, you have to promise me that your life belongs to me from this point on. You will obey my every command without question and won't keep anything from me.
"Don't worry, I won't send you to your death, and you shall have the freedom to preserve your life if it has ever been threatened because of my task to you, and you can enjoy your life as you like as long as it won't intervene with my plans or could be harmful to me in any way. After all, your life is quite important to me. But I'll always be the first one on your priority list. No leeway there.
"You should know that I sincerely acknowledge you as my apprentice, and I'm not enslaving you or using any contract to bind you. But I need your promise," Jacob demanded.
Elia was surprised by Jacob's sudden condition. She knew he could easily do anything to her, and she wouldn't even know or have the power to resist him. But all he was asking for was her
promise.
However, what Elia failed to notice was that the moment Jacob's words were spoken, an invisible crimson circle filled with dark runes suddenly formed under her, which could only be
seen by Jacob.
Elia looked towards the Liber Chaotica and then Jacob again before she nodded solemnly, "I
promise!"
The moment she uttered those words, the runic circle suddenly glowed brightly and twisted under her feet, forming a loop.
The next moment, it turned into a crimson streak and directly pierced Elia's glabella, and she didn't even realize it. The next moment, a dark crimson infinity symbol suddenly shimmered over her glabella before it vanished without a trace.
'Soul Tether Hex is established!' Jacob's eyes glowed darkly when he sensed his new innate hex, which he had awakened after evolving his hex core to a unique rank. He successfully bound Elia without her realizing it.
Now, all he had to do was make sure she never surpassed his soul, and even if she did manage to pull it off, there was another assurance in place.
Jacob's cold expression softened as he looked at the little girl who didn't know what had just happened. He smiled, "Good, little Elia. You are my first and official apprentice now, and I'll always protect you and see to it that you reach your full potential no matter what. "Now, the Liber Chaotica is yours. All you have to do is drip a drop of your blood on its cover, and it should be absorbed into your mind. From there, you can access all the information!"
