Chapter 84: Memory Farming



After some time, their documents were successfully verified, and they were allowed to enter inside.

"Please forgive me, gentlemen, for wasting your time." The man handed the documents back to Sebastian and spoke politely.

"Jack! You follow them and show them their designated location." In the next moment, he pointed at one of his subordinates and ordered.

Anyone who could get a letter of recommendation was a big shot; the man had no intention of offending such a person without a good reason but he still had to exercise caution.

So, in order to develop good relations, he decided to help David's group.

"On it, captain." Another man with snake-like eyebrows saluted and quickly came to David's group's side.

"It is a minor inconvenience, no need to apologize for it," Sebastian said while smiling politely.

"Respected sir, follow me." The snake-eyed Jack led them inside the market.

All this time, Jack maintained a respectful attitude. However, from time to time, his gaze would move towards Mary and Ruby's figures for a brief moment. In the next moment, he would hurriedly look away.

David's group didn't say anything and only silently followed him, except for an arrogant duck who looked at Jack contemptuously.

In no time, they arrived in an area filled with tents.

Each tent was separated from the others with a minimum distance of a hundred meters. Some were single-story tall while others were double-storied, depending on the requirement. They seemed to be made from an unknown fabric that gave them a sturdy and elegant look.

Jack stopped in front of a large white tent, turned his head toward the group, and politely said, "This is your tent, gentlemen."

"Thank you for helping us, Jack. We appreciate your efforts," David said gratefully while coldly sneering inside.

He didn't fall for Jack's polite attitude; guiding them was only a pretense. He was most likely sent by the Captain to keep an eye on their group.

After showing them around and not finding anything suspicious, Jack didn't stay around for long and hurriedly left.

Without wasting any time, all of them entered the white tent.

Inside, the tent was large and spacious. Right beside the entrance were several rows of cabinets neatly placed.

"Okay, everyone, you can do whatever you want. If you need more money, you can always ask me," David loudly announced after finding a good spot to sit down. The arrogant Borrito also looked at his surroundings with his small beady eyes.

After hearing David's words, he directly jumped on the ground and started roaming around.

"Anythinggggg~ Darling?" Mary purposefully stretched her words and looked at David with a strange gaze.

"Shut up, you rotten woman." David understood where she was going with her words and instantly made her shut up.

It wasn't like he wasn't interested in women; he was no saint. If she was any random woman, he would gladly clap her cheeks, but Mary was not just any woman.

She was someone with whom he was going to stay for a long period of time, so such things couldn't be forced. Moreover, he wasn't sure about her true intentions.

She might just be teasing him all this time. After all, who knows what really goes inside the mind of a being a hundred thousand years old?

He was too young and inexperienced to judge.

"Manager, I am going to look for alchemical ingredients." Sebastian left in a hurry after saying those words.

Ruby had already found one corner to sit down and meditate, focusing slowly on cultivating like a training demon.

At this time, David's eyes suddenly flashed with interest and then confusion as he looked at the familiar window.

[Regretfully, your client has died once again.

Even in death, the client must repay their debts; therefore, his soul was captured. You now have the following options. Please note that you can only choose one:

1 - Extract the client's Crystallion of Life (The Insights. Earthly King Grade).

2 - Extract Ryan's memories from his birth until his death.

3 - Choose any item the client owned in his lifetime.

4 - Do nothing, let the compound interest accrue, and decide again when the client dies in his next life.

Please note that capturing the soul and imprisoning it requires a large amount of mana, so you only have six minutes left to make a choice.]

Ryan had died again, but this wasn't something new.

What really piqued his interest was why he was receiving this notification; he had already absorbed Ryan's memories twice, and with that, his debt should have been cleared.

Ryan should no longer owe him or the Eternal Origin Bank anything.

"Strange, very strange," David muttered in a low voice. He still didn't understand how his Crystallization of Life functioned.

"Maybe absorbing memories didn't count as repaying."

"But then why had he not received any notification regarding Bryan's death again?"

It had been long time since he absorbed Bryan's memories in this period he should reincarnated and died atleast once.

David continued to ponder, and in the end, he shook his head and sighed.

He knew too little to make any meaningful conclusion.

With enough time, all of his questions would be answered automatically, or so David hoped.

And it wasn't like he was losing anything.

After clearing his mind, he chose the second option again.

And in no time, unknown memories started to flood his mind.

It took David more than five minutes to sort out all the memories in a meaningful way. Moreover, David suddenly felt a strange closeness with the world.

Not understanding this weird feeling, David decided to look at his status report later.

This time Ryan had lived for a long, very long period of time.

But unfortunately, he was born as a tree in this life, so as a result, there wasn't anything that piqued David's interest.

He stood at a single spot for a thousand years, ultimately dying because of a forest fire.
