Your Lord Has A Screw Loose?

"Healing!"

Qin Muye cast a healing spell in an attempt to cure the Magic Energy Spirit Monster that had been afflicted with a Death Curse, but, regrettably, he ultimately failed to save it.

After he had learned the "Corpse Bone Curse" and delved into the study of the Death Curse, a secret technique, it was already night. He then naturally began the healing process, but unfortunately, during the final step, the Death Curse within the Magic Energy Spirit Monster's body couldn't be reversed into a secret technique by him, causing an outbreak of both Death and Curse powers, leading to its instantaneous death on the spot.

"You see, not all Spirit Monsters are as fortunate as Demon Blood to become Champion Level, so you can give up. I will ensure you no longer have to suffer this pain," Qin Muye said to the remaining Magic Energy Spirit Monster.

"Master, your kindness and compassion fill me with sincere gratitude. If my death can further your success, then let my life be your stepping stone!"

The Magic Energy Spirit Monster's body radiated a thick grey-white color and a decaying aura of death, yet its will was extremely resilient, showing no desire for death but rather an active and uplifted spirit.

Hearing this, Qin Muye also fell silent.

He knew the Spirit Monsters' loyalty to him was extremely distorted and blindly devoted, but actually feeling it was another matter altogether.

"I have felt your loyalty, so you must carry this loyalty into your convictions," said Qin Muye before burying his head in data comparison. His thought process was simple: find the problem, solve the problem!

The Magic Energy Spirit Monster did not utter any more pledges of loyalty to avoid disturbing Qin Muye, knowing it was not the time to do so.

As time ticked away, Qin Muye finally summarized all the issues and had a pre-plan to resolve them.

He had made attempts before, but without practical data, many things were unclear.

A gleam of magic power flashed in his eyes. At this moment, Qin Muye used the Magic Eye on himself, without the aid of "Lord Era."

Then, flows of magic power, elements, and more appeared before his eyes.

Inside this Magic Energy Spirit Monster, there was not just magic power and elements, but also a grey-white Power of Death continuously spreading, suppressing its vitality until the Power of Death completely extinguished both the magic power and elements, after which it would claim the life of the Magic Energy Spirit Monster.

However, luckily, the essence of the Power of Death could also be considered a type of element, though not a conventional one. For example, the Meditation Technique recorded in the "Corpse Bone Curse" captures the element of the Power of Death and transforms it into magic power.

Therefore, the key to success is magic power.

But before that, he had to remove the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind from the Magic Energy Spirit Monster's body—these four elements formed the basis of the Elemental Resonance Skill.

The vanguard resisting the Power of Death was these four elements, and the previous Magic Energy Spirit Monster had died because of an outbreak caused by these elements.

However, if removed, the Power of Death would also spread rapidly, so he needed to suppress it with magic power.

The transformation proceeded very smoothly, even more so than last time. The previous attempt could also be considered a learning experience, so his Talent naturally took effect.

"Whew, it's done."

As the four elements were eliminated, Qin Muye successfully inscribed the Death Curse, a secret technique, into the Magic Energy Spirit Monster's body, and he even managed to merge magic power with the Power of Death, enabling its transition from magic power influenced by the four elements to magic power inclined towards death.

"Whether you can survive this is up to you now, I'm powerless to help. Let's hope this bit of Luck will favor you as promised."

After a brief cleanup, Qin Muye knew the Magic Energy Spirit Monster wouldn't easily complete its transformation; it would need at least eight hours to awaken, and it was expected to remain unconscious during this time.

Whether it could successfully become Champion Level depended on whether it could transform during this period.

There was nothing Qin Muye could do now, and based on the data he had inferred, there should be no issues. The transformation process had gone very smoothly.

After stretching for a bit, Qin Muye didn't leave but instead took out the Basic Death Magic Book to browse through, aiming to master all five level-1 spells recorded in it as soon as possible.

"I wonder when I'll be able to encounter level-2 spells. My current Wisdom Skill allows me to learn level-3 spells, yet I haven't even seen a level-2 spell," Qin Muye grumbled before immersing himself in his studies.

An impressive 67 points in Knowledge Attribute, learning became exceptionally fast.

[You have learned Level 1 Death Magic: Weakness Curse]

[You have learned...]

After mastering five Death System Magic spells, Qin Muye once again took out two Spirit Monster Experiment Manuals and Building blueprints to delve deeper into his research.

With the extensive data on Spirit Monsters he had collected over time, the term revisiting old knowledge to gain new insights perfectly described his process.

Naturally, none of this would be possible without the help of these 67 points in Knowledge.

Perhaps it was because he always dealt with rare Professions, but he often felt that ordinary Professions were simply inadequate. If he could gain 5 Knowledge points instead of 1 Attribute point and 1 Knowledge point every time he leveled up, he dared not say he'd become godlike, but many things would have been much simpler.

So, Qin Muye was also looking for ways to compensate for this shortcoming.

[One of your Spirit Monsters has evolved into a Champion Level]

Qin Muye yawned, preparing to engage in a Meditation Technique to refresh himself when he suddenly noticed this prompt.

"Success!" Instantly, he became fully alert without needing to meditate.

The Magic Energy Spirit Monster that was lying on the bed slowly got up. Although its Life Value was not yet full, it was surrounded by an aura of death.

[Troop Type: Magic Energy Spirit Monster]

[Troop Rank: 1st Rank Champion Level]

[Life Value: 5/5]

[Magic Value: 40/40]

[Attack Power: 0]

[Defensive Power: 0]

[Skill]

[Lucky Garden: Luck +1]

[Death Curse Physique: When attacked, will unleash a magic energy curse, causing all enemies within 10 meters to suffer a 10-point reduction in Attack Power and Defensive Power, and deals 10 points of Death Attribute damage]

[Magic Wisdom: Magic Value +40]

[Loyal Taming: Morale will never falter]

[Curse Entanglement: Each attack can release a Curse Magic Ball, reducing the Attack Power of the target by 5 points, stackable up to 5 times]

[Death Energy Emission: Life Value Limit decreases by 10 points every day]

[Introduction: The mad creation of a certain Lord, who infused the Power of Death into the body of a Spirit Monster, creating a creature on the verge of death, cursed. Yes, even more insane than the previous Champion Level Spirit Monster—highly recommended to be confined in Akam Asylum, it doesn't matter whether it's the DC one or Cthulhu's!]

"..." Qin Muye read the Introduction and had a nagging feeling that it was somehow targeting him.

"Master, I have succeeded," the Magic Energy Spirit Monster spoke.
