Chapter 259: Chapter 259: Triggered a strange hidden profession?

At this moment, the Spider seemed nothing more than an ordinary person; there was nothing particular about him that stood out.

As the hearts representing good and evil were destroyed, his connection with Beast Alley began to weaken, and this terrible, filthy world was slowly returning to normal.

Waves of blood washed over everything, carrying Han Fei to Xu Qin’s side.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Xu Qin struggling in pain not far away.

The Spider’s Heart of Evil could bear the endless sins of Beast Alley, and the Spider’s Heart of Goodness held a special power as well.

At the cost of destroying the heart of goodness, the Spider pulled the out-of-control Xu Qin from the Abyss of the Curse.

He didn’t do this solely to help Han Fei and Xu Qin; he was also doing it for himself. If he didn’t control Xu Qin, he would ultimately have to engage in a life-and-death struggle with Xu Qin, with no winners in the end.

The boundless blood waters scattered the Curse that shrouded Xu Qin, and the goodwill that had accumulated in his heart for countless years called back some of Xu Qin’s sanity. The Spider, as the Manager, exerted all his effort to create an opportunity for Han Fei.

Han Fei, of course, understood how hard-won this opportunity was. As he opened his eyes, his body was already moving.

He stood up from the blood water and ran towards Xu Qin before the Curse could gather again.

The body, pierced with thirteen dinner knives, looked heartbreaking. Xu Qin was like a Blood Clothes Angel nailed to the cross; her self-awareness had become extremely weak.

As an actor with Master-level acting skills, Han Fei could easily portray any emotion he wished to convey and speak the words that best fit the other person’s tone. But, in that moment, he said nothing.

The only thought in his mind was to bring back the Xu Qin he knew before.

Noticing Han Fei’s approach, Xu Qin became even more distorted and fierce. It seemed she was trying to use this to force Han Fei to leave.

The Curse was closing in. When all the Curse forces gathered again, Xu Qin would lose her sanity once more, and Han Fei would be enveloped by hundreds of Curses, dying instantly.

A hint of pain occasionally flashed through her crimson eyes. Xu Qin could not control her body; as Han Fei drew nearer, she let out a piercing scream, and her beautiful lips almost tore apart!

In any respect, the present Xu Qin resembled a ferocious Monster; she strenuously conveyed her danger and horror, but none of these slowed Han Fei’s steps.

There was no reason, no special cause.

Han Fei walked up to Xu Qin, his human body reaching out to touch the dinner knives on her.

Those thirteen dinner knives were the keys to the Gate of Curse. Han Fei knew that to restore Xu Qin to normal, he had to pull out all the dinner knives.

After transitioning to the Midnight Butcher, Han Fei had dual Curse Resistance against flesh and cutlery, but even so, when his fingertips touched the dinner knife, the Curse instantly spread across his hand, his skin cracked immediately, and fresh, warm blood splashed onto Xu Qin’s clothes.

If he couldn’t even touch them, how could he possibly pull out the knives that were embedded in the body?

Xu Qin screamed again, exuding both a murderous intent and agony. Her arms rose, and the remaining Curse, like black chains, whipped Han Fei to the ground.

Grinding his teeth, Han Fei did not retreat, moving forward once more.

His eyes were filled with an indescribable emotion; this time, he extended his hands toward the dinner knife pierced through Xu Qin’s heart.

The knife was short, with a hilt wrapped in a human skin grip.

Han Fei gripped the hilt with both hands, his palms splitting and bleeding in an instant. However, perhaps because the human skin grip held some special meaning in Xu Qin’s heart, even though she had lost her sanity, the Curse did not completely penetrate the grip.

"You made this grip on the hilt yourself to protect me from being burned by the Curse, how could I possibly let go now just because of these minor injuries?"

The cracks in his skin spread to his arms, but Han Fei’s face bore a smile. His body trembled from the pain, yet even so, he did his utmost to pull the dinner knife out of Xu Qin’s heart.

The blood-red blade slowly separated from the flesh. Hundreds of Curses enveloped Han Fei, yet he appeared not to see them at all.

"You probably never imagined that this dinner knife would connect us like this, did you?"

Warm blood slid down his arm. As innumerable Curses began to regather around Xu Qin, Han Fei pulled the dinner knife from Xu Qin’s heart!

The human skin grip was now soaked with Han Fei’s blood. Much of the Curse that surrounded Xu Qin dissipated, and a trace of sanity returned to her eyes.

She opened her eyes wide, watching as Han Fei raised his scar-covered hand and then reached for another knife stuck in her body.

Bearing the Curse and the pain, Han Fei nevertheless smiled. His smile was stiff, yet everyone could feel the joy he was experiencing.

Xu Qin stopped attacking, simply gazing fixedly at the person before her.

With each dinner knife being pulled out, her memories and consciousness slowly returned.

When the Gate of Curse opened, those thirteen dinner knives represented the world’s greatest distance.

Xu Qin had never imagined that someone could cross the distance of those thirteen dinner knives and then look at her with such cheerfulness.

All thirteen dinner knives were pulled out by Han Fei, and Xu Qin regained the sanity she had lost.

The two of them, covered in scars, looked at each other. In the end, it was Han Fei who spoke first, "Go home?"

Xu Qin didn’t speak, she just nodded. Meanwhile, at the same moment, Han Fei received a notification from the system.

"Attention, player number 0000! The Curse Aggregation, Xu Qin’s friendliness, has reached the maximum value for the current stage! Triggering the special hidden profession Pretty Man’s precursor quest!"

"Pretty Man: Your compatibility with this Profession has increased once more! This is a very special Profession that is extremely rare anywhere you go. If you obtain this Profession, you will have the chance to acquire items and help from Grudges, possessing an ever-growing Charm Value. You can easily gain the friendliness of Grudges, but if you’re not careful, you could also be hunted to death by countless Fierce Ghosts and Grudges."

"Pretty Man’s Precursor Quest: Attempt to manipulate the friendliness of three Grudges, reducing it before doubling it."

After giving the Pretty Man’s precursor quest a quick glance, Han Fei immediately chose to reject it. He didn’t like to manipulate or deceive people’s emotions.

This might also be related to his own troublesome upbringing. He could truly understand the desperation of those Grudges and sincerely wanted to help them find hope again.

In fact, it was because of Han Fei’s attitude that whether it was his neighbors, clerks, or students, everyone was willing to follow him.

"Compared to the Pretty Man, the Midnight Butcher suit me better."

The Butcher’s home had been destroyed, and Han Fei was likely the last Midnight Butcher in the Deep World.
