After obtaining the seal token, Tia Dalma achieved her goal.
However, along with her, there was the group of pirates who escorted the slave traders. They did not dare to speak to Roy, so they could only place their hopes on Tia Dalma and were all looking at her eagerly. Tia Dalma did not go back on her words. She pointed at the pirates and said to Roy, “These pirates captured the people you wanted, so I hope that you can ensure their safety. Also, I heard that you have a very special game called ‘Osiris’s Balance’, right? They want to try it out!”
“Osiris’s Balance?” Roy was stunned when he heard this, but he soon realized that these pirates wanted to play the same game as Jack Sparrow, the game to obtain demon gold.
Roy was not surprised that Jack Sparrow had spread information about the game. But Roy did not expect these guys to give Roy’s impromptu creation a name.
You don’t say, it’s actually a pretty good depiction…
“Do you really want to play this game with me?” Roy turned to look at the pirates.
The pirates were overjoyed when they heard Roy. They hurriedly nodded. “Sir Osiris, please grant us our request!”
Roy did not say anything and used his magic power to create two black ice chairs on the spot. He extended his hand and invited Tia Dalma to sit down. Tia Dalma did not stand on ceremony. She smiled charmingly and sat down on the chair. Then Roy sat on the other chair and faced the pirates. “My name is Osiris, a demon from the Abyss. However, I’m not purely a fighter, and I’m more inclined toward being a devil. On account of the fact that you sent me the murderers, I can let you leave safely, but it seems like you aren’t satisfied with returning empty-handed.
“Since you intend to play this ‘Osiris’s Balance’ game, it’s not impossible. But I want to explain the rules in advance!” Roy raised his finger. “First, the things used to trade for gold can only be what you carry with you. You can’t add anymore! Second, because your things aren’t useful to me, the gold that I exchange with you through the game also has a huge drawback—it contains a curse of misfortune. Holding this gold will cause your luck to become worse. It often leads to many unlucky things happening to you, and there is a chance that you will die!”
Roy directly mentioned the curse of the demon gold. In any case, even if he did not say it, the people holding the gold would discover it. “The rules are these two. Decide whether you want to play this game or not!” Roy said as he leaned back on his chair and looked at the pirates.
The gold actually has a curse of misfortune? This was the first time the pirates heard about this, so they immediately became restless.
The opinions of the pirates diverged. After hearing that there was a chance that they would become cursed and die, many pirates immediately wanted to back out. But some of them did not care and insisted on playing this game.
“What’s there to be afraid of? Don’t we pirates pursue wealth?” a pirate said loudly. “In order to obtain wealth, aren’t we always risking our lives?”
“That’s right!” another pirate echoed. “Think about it carefully. Haven’t your companions been killed in battle? Look at those who were hanged by the marines. Don’t tell me the dangers of being pirates isn’t comparable to a little curse of misfortune?”
“That’s right. Didn’t you notice that the curse of misfortune only has a chance of death? Usually, it’s just bad luck. If worst comes to worst, we can just throw away the gold before the curse kills us.”
“That makes sense. No wonder that guy Jack Sparrow spent so much money. Looks like he wanted to get rid of his curse of misfortune…”
As these pirates analyzed the situation, those who wanted to back out slowly changed their minds… Logically speaking, those pirates who were not afraid of death should not have said these things. They were undoubtedly increasing their competitors, but they were doing this to encourage themselves so as to strengthen their determination.
After discussing for a while, the pirates maintained the same tacit understanding in the end. No one planned on leaving, and they all looked at Roy.
“It seems like you’ve made your decision!”
Roy was not surprised at all. All pirates were like this. They were nothing more than a bunch of money-seeking villains and bandits. Any adventure or romance was actually just gold they put on their faces to improve the image their profession.
Tia Dalma sat at the side and watched silently. She had interacted more with pirates than Roy, and she knew better what pirates were like. Therefore, even though she knew that these pirates would cause the gold with misfortune to spread all over the world, she had no intention of stopping it. She was a sea goddess, but her divine power could not stop the greed of humans…
This demon was merely fulfilling his duty…
Seeing that the pirates had made up their minds, Roy did not say anything else. He opened the system interface and created a large balance. In the middle of the balance was an image of a fierce demon. Roy designed the lever of the balance as a symmetrical pair of demon wings, and demon claws held the balance trays. Since there were no special attributes on it, it only cost less than one soul to materialize.
The moment it appeared, the pirates were immediately attracted to the balance with a strong Abyss style. They breathed heavily, their eyes shining as they waited.
With a crashing sound, Roy poured out all the demon gold he had collected from the system space. The golden light that blossomed in that instant almost blinded the pirates!
When they saw the gold, they realized that what Jack Sparrow had said was true!
The gold bars that Roy made were all small one-hundred-gram bars, but he had dug out more than a ton from the Abyss, making the number of gold bars look extremely large. The sight of these gold bars piled up messily on the ground was indescribable!
If not for the fact that they knew how terrifying the demon was, the pirates might have drawn their cutlasses and flintlocks and killed the owner of the gold directly before snatching it away…

Now, they could only obediently follow Roy’s rules. But what Roy did not expect was that the pirates were about to fight over being first!
Fortunately, not long after, the first person to test the water was finally decided.
The one who came forward was a burly Germanic pirate, and he seemed to be the strongest among the pirates. After stepping forward, he looked at Roy with some fear before carefully taking off the weapon at his waist and placing it on one end of the balance.
Roy was flabbergasted as he stared at this guy’s weapon. He finally realized that these pirates had come prepared!
This pirate’s weapon was actually a chain weapon weighing more than ten kilograms! It was also known as the flail…
It would have been fine if it was just one, but this guy had more than one flail hanging on his waist! No wonder when Roy saw him walk forward, he looked a little awkward. He had already prepared heavy items for this transaction!
He was not the only one. Roy glanced around casually and saw several of them with heavy weapons…
Seeing that the pirate still wanted to place down the other flails, Roy had no choice but to say expressionlessly, “There can only be one of the same items!”
He had no choice but to add this rule. What a joke. If everyone was like him, his gold would be gone in the blink of an eye. After all, there were still dozens of pirates waiting, and Roy did not want the pirates to find out that his gold had run out…
After hearing Roy’s words, the Germanic pirate immediately looked regretful. But it did not matter. Although he could not use the weapons anymore, he had other things. He took a shield and placed it on the balance. Then he began to take off his clothes and shoes. This guy’s clothes were heavy leather armor, and his shoes were heavy boots. It could be said that the pirates had done everything they could for this game…
Roy did not stop these latter things. All he needed to do was plan and spread all the gold in his hands.
Before long, the Germanic pirate found that he had nothing else to put on the balance, so he picked up the gold bars and placed them on the other end of the balance.
After the balance was finally balanced, the pirate finally took away twenty-three kilograms of gold. In order to drag away the more than two hundred gold bars, he had even specially prepared a gunny sack to hold them…
After the first person successfully exchanged for gold, the remaining pirates were overjoyed. Thus, they began arguing about their order. They could see that the gold on the ground seemed to be limited and that there would be less they could get later.
As the pirates exchanged for gold one after another, the gold on the ground was steadily decreasing. Some of these pirates exchanged for more, while others exchanged for less.
Those who were not fully prepared saw the others take away a large number of gold bars, and they were so regretful that they wanted to die.
However, they did not know that it was not necessarily a good thing to take away more gold because those who took away more would probably die faster! The power of the gold’s curse would stack… Perhaps when they returned, those who took away the most gold would soon be killed by envious people. This was the effect of the curse of misfortune…
However, if these pirates were to compare the gold they obtained with the gold that Jack Sparrow obtained, they might discover that their gold was different.
On this batch of gold bars, there was a hexagonal snowflake pattern engraved on them!
Yes, this snowflake pattern was the ‘mark’ Roy created!
[Mark of Osiris]
Soul Catcher: Items engraved with this mark will automatically attract and absorb the souls that appear within a radius of five hundred meters.
Teleport: The souls that have been absorbed will be teleported to the demon whose true name is Osiris. This teleport is a cross-world teleport.
When making this mark, the Soul Catcher attribute barely cost anything, but the attribute for cross-world teleportation consumed far more souls than Roy had imagined!
Making this mark had cost Roy about five thousand souls to exchange for it. Roy had designed the carrier of this mark to be a ring, and the pattern on the ring was the snowflake mark. When he wanted to engrave this mark on an item, Roy only needed to transfer his magic power to the ring and heat the ring’s mark to brand the item.
This way, as long as Roy mined the gold mine after returning and prepared more gold, he would be able to spread a portion of it every time he came to a world. Then, even if he did not return to that world in the future, the souls would be sent to Roy continuously.
After the number of souls teleported back in the future increased, Roy also needed to create an item that could automatically store these souls. Otherwise, he might not even have the time to do anything else in the future, and he would just keep collecting souls every day…
Of course, Roy did not set this mark as indestructible because he would have probably needed to pay more souls. It was not worth it. The secret of the mark on the circulating gold of misfortune might be discovered by the church one day, and it might confiscate the gold and refine it to destroy the marks. However, it was impossible for the church to do that in a short period of time. Such small gold bars were quite easy to circulate, and once they spread, it would not be easy to find all of them…
