Capítulo 29: Cursed
The giant was taken aback by Jack's sudden change in mood , but since it was in his own interest, he did not question it nor did he want Jack to change his mind. As he sighed in relief, Jack walked towards him. He then looked at him and said,
"Thank you.. thank you so much. Really."
"Hah. Cut the crap. I never said I'll do it for free." The giant made an understanding face, as he knew he was on the bad end of the deal, however, he had no other option. That, coupled with the fact that Jack helped him out, he wasn't in an a position to deny him a reward. "Okay, so what is it that you wish for? Us giants, are not rich in ores or magic like the elves or dwarves. We can provide physical labor, but that's it."
"Don't worry, I don't need anything like that. What I want is a favor."
"A favor?" The giant seemed rather confused. He did not understand what exactly the man meant, but he felt like this was gonna be worse than anything he could have even given.
He almost felt like he had walked into the jaw of a tiger himself as he sighed.
"Indeed I want a favor. In the future I will call this favor whenever I need it, and you won't say no to it, no matter what. In exchange, I will promise you will that you will definitely achieve your revenge ."Jack spoke with a smirk, almost like he already had a plan for this. He had seen enough movies to know how exactly they were gonna do it but more important things first.
He activated his card skill as it landed on the 8 of hearts, as he simply used that to heal the giant. Meanwhile, Carus was left in a shocked state as he looked at his wounds being closed, and body being fixed. "Y-You know magic?" Jack looked up at him with a confused look before realizing that he had never explained that yet. "Oh, yeah, I do know some magic, so don't worry." He chuckled. Well, if the opportunity was presenting itself like that, Jack would of course increase his value in the giant's eye so he doesn't try to betray him. One doesn't upset those who are stronger or more useful, at least usually. The giant seemed smart enough to know that.
"I am Carus, and you have my word. Help me achieve what I want, and I'll fulfil your favor". the Giant said, offering his finger for Jack to shake, and so he did with his hand. "Jack. Looking forward to this partnership."
Carus nodded, but now was the hard part. How were they gonna get back inside the village, without getting found out? Even if they did, and managed to somehow kill Radus, what next? They wouldn't be able to convince anyone in the village about the truth. He was honestly worried what would happen as he started thinking of a plan.
Just then, Jack spoke up. "So, here's the plan." Carus was surprised, as he had literally just told Jack his whole story 14 minutes ago, and he was already ready with a plan. This little human surprised him more and more, it seemed. "So for the plan. You.. might need to die."
Meanwhile back in the village of the giant, a few days later. The man who was the current chief was sleeping in his giant mansion by himself. In his sleep, he seemed to be muttering something. Sweat rolled off his forehead, as he was probably having a nightmare.
At first everything was going fine, as he sat down on his throne, drinking wine. But suddenly, something reached out and grabbed his shoulders from behind the throne. It was a dead rena, with her head bashed in, and hollow eyes like the void, crying tears of blood as she grabbed his shoulders…. and spoke in a voice that sent shivers down the giants spine. "You killed me…"
Just then, as he would try to get up, a similar undead version of Carus appeared in front of him, grabbing both of his legs. "Pay for your sins…" the phantom version of Carus said, as its bleeding eyes started sinking into the ground, skeletal hands dug out from the ground grabbing Radus. No matter how much he struggled, or tried to break free, he couldn't do it, as they kept pulling him. Finally, pulling him under the ground, into Hell itself.
Suddenly, Radus woke up, and tried to catch his breathe. It was just a nightmare.. He was sweating profusely and scared, but at least he was still alive…
"For fuck's sakes.."
Upon being woken up, Radus got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face, as he turned on the water and splashed it on himself. He wiped his face with a towel, and looked into the mirror, only to see something horrifying. He stumbled back falling down, as he stared at the mirror.
On the mirror, written with blood were the words, "You will pay." as the blood droplets rolled down the mirror surface, so did the sweat from Radus's forehead.
