A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees - Chapter 34

“How do I crack open this thing…”

Matthew touched the thick coconut shell with both hands, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

However, very quickly.

His attention shifted from the coconut to the ability ” Gift of Nature.”

He pondered for a moment.

Matthew placed the coconut on his thigh, took out another piece of paper, and wrote, “How should I use this miraculous and strange ability?”

He stopped writing and thought for a moment.

If he were a greedy person, he would strive to maximize his benefits.

He would collect corpses through all sorts of legal or illegal channels and then bury them in his oak forest.

After that, he only needed to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others’ labor.

But was that really right?

Matthew shook his head decisively.

Boundless gifts seemed tempting, but if he did that, what difference would it make him from those people who did all kinds of evil for power?

Besides, there might be hidden dangers to this ability that he had not discovered.

Matthew didn’t think that he could always enjoy the gifts without paying any price.

His intuition told him that abusing this ability could cause a lot of problems.

Therefore, he had to be cautious.

Matthew decided to take the initiative to control the number of ” gifts.”

He wouldn’t refuse a corpse that was delivered to him, but he wouldn’t take the initiative to search for a burial object either.

..

” In addition, I should also control my thoughts in terms of perception. I can’t think of burying someone when I see that they have powerful abilities…This kind of greedy thinking is very dangerous. It might gradually strip away my humanity.

“Nature’s gift is a gift, and I shouldn’t take the initiative to demand or expect it.”

He wrote these.

Matthew heaved a sigh of relief.

At that moment, it was as if something hazy in his heart had been broken.

His heart was clear and refreshed.

In the next second.

He suddenly noticed that everything around him had fallen into a strange distortion.

In a trance.

Matthew saw countless faces that seemed to be immersed in mercury. Some of them were happy, some were sad, some were greedy, and some were cold. It was as if there were pairs of eyes with different emotions watching him.

His skin was itchy from the gazes.

Just as Matthew was about to give in.

All the images disappeared.

Powerful energy was injected into his body!

..

[You have firmly rejected an incredible temptation in the depths of your heart. You have successfully stepped into the sub-domain of desire, ‘temperance’!]

[As a reward for stepping into the field, you can choose one of the following three abilities:]

..

1. Heart of Tranquil Water (Your willpower is enough to resist most charms below Legendary level)

2. Spare Power (After your mana or stamina is completely exhausted, a small portion of energy will be replenished. Amount of usage: 10）

3. A heart without regrets (You can choose whether to seal the emotion ‘regret’. After sealing it, you will never be disturbed by this emotion)

..

After the unexpected joy.

Matthew began to think.

These three options actually had their own merits.

[A heart without regrets] could help a person permanently remove a relatively negative emotion, and it could also be unsealed at any time. It was flexible and easy to use.

There was a limit to the number of times he could use ” Spare Power “, but it could always help him in a desperate situation.

However…

Who could refuse the Heart of Tranquil Water?

Out of courtesy, Matthew glanced at the other two options and chose one without hesitation!

..

” You have completed the enlightenment of the Temperance Sub-Domain. Your current status: Initial Entry.

..

You have received a permanent status of ‘Clear Mind’.

[Clear Mind: Every day, as long as you complete the restraint of a certain desire, you will have a clear mind for at least 1 hour. In this state, your learning efficiency will be three times that of usual!]」

..

“This is very useful. If we’re talking about desire, I am already restraining it every day!”

Matthew couldn’t help but mutter.

In the next second.

A faint voice came from outside the basement.

“I knew it! Matthew, I knew that you were actually restraining the urge to violate me every day. You necromancers are all the same, aren’t you?”

Matthew turned around.

Peggy was swinging her long legs against the door frame.

As she was doing that, she was still winking at Matthew.

This scene.

Matthew could only say in his heart, ‘What in the…’

“What’s the matter?” he asked.

“There are three big things I’m about to tell you.”

Peggy became serious.
