Chapter 193: Talent Evolution: Misfortune
Su Ning activated the Scavenger’s Eye:
[Native: Elissa] (Rosana)
Seeing Rosana’s name marked in the data, Su Ning instantly understood— She had taken over Elissa’s body.
That surprised Su Ning quite a bit. She’d watched Rosana and Oleni die together in a mutual explosion, yet here she was standing in front of her again. Once more, Su Ning’s hair stood on end at the witches’ strange, unpredictable abilities.
She made a note to herself:
“I must get my hands on some witchcraft books. Even if I only learn a little, it could help me protect myself.”
Elissa—no, now clearly Rosana, the Venom Witch—also turned her gaze toward Su Ning.
Su Ning’s presence felt utterly bizarre to her.
“I absorbed Elissa’s memories… Yet never expected to encounter someone like her.”
Compared to Elissa, Rosana found herself more drawn to Su Ning’s appearance—and her body.
She glanced down at her current host with open disdain.
From the memories, she knew Elissa had nearly lost her life chasing a man. If not for the chaos of Rosana’s battle with Oleni, Elissa surely would’ve died at the hands of the very man she loved.
“Just one man made you this obsessed? With a bit of mind control magic, men would be at your feet. How pathetic.”
Rosana was utterly speechless at Elissa’s obsession.
But now, as she looked at Su Ning, she couldn’t suppress the sudden urge to attack.
Even though she knew how strange and powerful Su Ning was… She didn’t know why, but the impulse was uncontrollable.
If Su Ning had known what Rosana was thinking at that moment,
She could only sigh:
“The power of [Super Bad Luck] is no joke.”
“Anyone who bears ill will toward me is just asking to get wrecked.”
Rosana tried to pull the same trick as before— Channeling her spiritual venom energy to possess Su Ning’s body.
In an instant, she gathered her energy and lunged at Su Ning.
Su Ning had been on guard already, but Rosana’s energy locked onto her like it had auto-targeting. No matter how Su Ning dodged, it followed.
The moment Rosana launched her attack, Elissa’s body collapsed like an empty husk.
A terrifying spiritual force slammed into Su Ning’s mind.
“Hahaha! This beautiful body is mine now!”
Rosana laughed triumphantly, eager to destroy Su Ning’s mind.
But as Su Ning instinctively activated her abilities in her spiritual sea,
Rosana suddenly felt a terrifying pull.
“What is this?!”
She had no power to resist.
In front of her appeared a dark gray-black energy, even darker and more oppressive than herself.
Rosana tried to destroy Su Ning’s mental core— But this strange gray-black force wrapped around her, blocking her completely.
She couldn’t even get close. And worse—she could feel her own power being drained.
“What’s going on?! This is dangerous—I have to get out of here! Damn it, what is this thing?!”
She tried to flee Su Ning’s spiritual sea, but…
Escape was impossible.
This gray-black force was none other than the core of Su Ning’s [Super Bad Luck] talent.
In the past, it would only activate passively, But as Su Ning had grown stronger, it had also evolved.
Now, it had begun to feed—but only on special energies. Ordinary power was beneath it.
And Rosana—an ancient witch who had lived for who knows how long— Her spiritual energy was exactly what Super Bad Luck craved.
Of course, Oleni’s divine bloodline was just as delicious.
But devouring divine power directly would likely attract unwanted attention.
So Super Bad Luck had instead subtly manipulated the outcome, Using its rules of misfortune to make Oleni and Rosana destroy each other— Leaving it free to feed afterward.
That’s right: They hadn’t died in mutual destruction. It was merely mutual damage.
What Su Ning thought had been a full mutual kill… Was not.
How could Oleni, a Son of God, die from one energy blast?
Sure, his body had died— But his soul remained intact, much like Rosana’s. Though the cost was high—
He would now reincarnate into a child who would be born soon, A form of spiritual takeover—a new body for a new life.
Back in Su Ning’s mind—
As Rosana launched her possession attack, Su Ning’s vision went blank. But the moment it hit, she felt like she’d just drunk a magical tonic. Her mind grew incredibly clear and energized.
Then—
A soft “crack” echoed in her ears.
Like a shackle breaking.
Suddenly, a mysterious new power surged through her.
And then the system prompt rang out:
[Ding! Congratulations, player! Your talent ‘Super Bad Luck’ has evolved into ‘Misfortune’.]
Su Ning blinked, confused. But quickly realized what had just happened.
Rosana had tried to possess her… But was devoured by the Super Bad Luck power instead.
And that caused her talent to evolve—
And gain a new ability.
[Misfortune]
You are the embodiment of misfortune.
Any being that harbors hostility toward you will fall into relentless misfortune—until death.
Su Ning stared at the talent description.
“So… now anyone who hates me doesn’t just get unlucky—they get cursed to death?”
She was really looking forward to seeing how this new ability would play out.
Meanwhile, in another dimension—
A mysterious domain somewhere deep in space.
Static crackled through the air.
A scruffy man with glasses, hair like a bird’s nest, jolted awake.
As he looked at the system alert, he was shocked.
“Super Bad Luck has evolved? Tsk tsk… some people are going to be very nervous now. With Misfortune unlocked, can full-on calamity be far behind?”
Just as he smirked at the screen, a small mechanical green rabbit hopped over to his side.
“Master, master! I found traces of the special talent-holders you asked me to track!”
The disheveled man pushed his glasses up.
“Good. Show me. Where are they?”
The robotic rabbit’s voice was soft, but not robotic—more… alive.
“Player Li Ming from World 123, Talent: Super Luck, currently in S-tier instance Absolute Zero.”
“Player Kong Lingyuan from World 888, Talent: Five Emperors, currently in S-tier instance Devil’s Den.”
“Player Aixas from World 111, Talent: Bravery, currently in S-tier instance Beast Paradise.”
“Player Huang Taotao from World 444, Talent: Phoenix Rebirth, currently in S-tier instance Ghoul.”
“Player ……… from World 234…”
“Player Zheng Yaxian from World 99, Talent: Reincarnator, currently in S-tier instance Witch Hunt.”
“And also from World 99: Player Su Ning, also surviving in the Witch Hunt instance.”
The green rabbit rattled off a long list of names— All talent carriers targeted for recovery by the management organization.
The scruffy man nodded:
“Alright. Got it. Good work, little Bunny.”
The green mechanical rabbit replied:
“Not hard… just my fate.”
