Bab 84: Chapter 83 Inhibited Speech_1

"Ugh—"

Justin suddenly felt a wave of chill seeping out from deep within his skin.

Like someone stricken with a severe cold, his body began to shiver unconsciously.

From the outer side of his left calf, a sharp pain spread to his knee...

Justin was all too familiar with this sensation.

It was the hallmark of the "Curse Hunter" profession.

Only those who had ingested a special potion and applied a lethal ointment to their skin without disfigurement could acquire this trait... the prerequisite trait for the job change to Curse Hunter, namely "Cursed Sensitive Skin".

Mere proximity to a Transcendent would cause a tingling pain on the corresponding part of their body; and when struck with an inconspicuous "Curse Binding" or targeted by a ritual, they would immediately feel the agony.

Through extensive training, they developed a new sense.

With this novel form of touch, they interacted with curses, sensed curses... and hunted curses.
