[Task Introduction: The Blood Wraith Infant has reached level 10, entering its first shaping phase. This stage will determine its future growth direction and personality. Due to your significant role in its early development, you have earned the right to make initial adjustments.]
[Task Objective: Complete the first phase of shaping for the Blood Wraith Infant.]
[Task Reward: Blood Wraith Infant''s Taming Level +50, Basic Experience +200]
Lin En was bewildered.
This could trigger a task?
He carefully read through the task introduction.
He roughly understood the task requirements and was also shocked by the growth speed of the Blood Wraith Infant race.
Because it had only been less than a day, and it had already skyrocketed to level 10.
And the deterioration was severe.
Apart from the face he molded yesterday, the rest of the body had been completely filled with wildly growing tentacles.
"System, what will happen if I let it develop on its own?"
[Ding! The target is an evil spirit, and the immense resentment within will continuously alter its external features. If allowed to develop unchecked, the target will gradually distort into an extremely malevolent creature, harboring great malice towards the host.]
Lin En: "..."
So, before it takes shape, I must constantly suppress this Blood Wraith Infant''s resentment. Once she''s no longer afraid of me, she''ll kill me?
It seems I''ve really stumbled upon quite a predicament!
"In that case, I''ll continue to make some adjustments today."
Lin En cracked his knuckles, his face full of determination.
Lin En reached out his hand.
He lifted the Blood Wraith Infant by the scruff of its neck.
The tentacles drooped lifelessly.
Due to the immense fear value accumulated from yesterday, she had no desire to resist in front of Lin En.
It''s like when you''re extremely afraid of someone, you become very obedient...If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.
[Blood Wraith Infant''s Confusion Level +1]
She stared blankly at the terrifying human holding her, her hazy consciousness making her anxious about what might happen next.
What is he going to do?
Is he going to knead her face into a strange shape like yesterday?
And then, in the next moment.
Lin En grabbed two thick, slippery tentacles on her body, his expression serious, and then, like pulling dough, he yanked, kneaded, and pushed!
Blood Wraith Infant (ΩДΩ)!!
[Blood Wraith Infant''s Fear Level +20]
"You''re still too disobedient, growing so many strange tentacles without a doctor''s approval!"
"This is very unhealthy for a child''s growth!"
Lin En (╬￣皿￣) tied the wriggling tentacles into knots one by one.
With a series of swift movements, he forcibly pressed them back.
"Let Uncle Lin En give you a makeover!"
Blood Wraith Infant (ΩДΩ)!!
[Blood Wraith Infant''s Fear Level +20]
[Blood Wraith Infant''s Fear Level +20]
...
[Ding! You have completed the juvenile shaping of the Blood Wraith Infant, significantly influencing her form development.]
More than half an hour later, Lin En looked with satisfaction at the dazed Blood Wraith Infant placed on the table in front of him.
Yesterday, he only managed to mold the Blood Wraith Infant''s face, but today''s full service made Lin En extremely satisfied with his handiwork.
Rosy cheeks, chubby little hands, a doll-like little girl.
If this were in the human world.
She would undoubtedly be a healthy and perfect human child that would make countless mothers'' eyes light up with affection.
Of course.
Because there were too many tentacles from the breakdown, even at the end, there were still many leftover tissues.
So Lin En made a slight adjustment to a part of her body.
Lin En extended his finger.
He flicked the small and cute beast ears on her head.
(?＞︶＜)?
Isn''t she super cute!
"Maintain this form, and don''t break down randomly again!" Lin En earnestly instructed:
"Only then can you grow up healthy and become a little girl loved by everyone, understand?"
The Blood Wraith Infant''s expression was blank.
[Ding! The initial form of the Blood Wraith Infant has been determined, initiating preliminary correction of personality and growth direction.]
[Ding! Data processing starting... Data processing complete...]
Lin En was stunned.
And in the next moment, a panel appeared before him.
[Blood Wraith Infant]
[Personality Direction]: Cunning, Resentful, Murderous
[Psychological Traits]: Twisted, Broken, Pathological
[Growth Direction]: An indescribable multi-handed monster, a twisted wraith spreading fear and disaster, a malevolent spirit spreading calamity and slaughter.
So this can be adjusted too?
Lin En pondered.
With just a glance, Lin En decisively shook his head.
This growth direction is too much! As expected of the dark world, it doesn''t guide anyone towards the good!
Lin En decisively began to adjust.
A few minutes later.
[Blood Wraith Infant]
[Personality Direction]: Sweet, Obedient, Murderous
[Psychological Traits]: Virtuous, Cute, Pathological
[Growth Direction]: A sweet and lovable little Lolita, a beautiful girl bringing happiness and peace, a malevolent spirit spreading calamity and slaughter.
"System, can''t I adjust the ones after each entry? I''ve only managed to adjust a half-finished product!"
[Ding! Host''s permission is insufficient, only two traits per category can be adjusted in the first phase.]
"I see."
Lin En pondered.
Then he smiled with satisfaction, clapped his hands, and said:
"Let''s leave it at that for now. When you reach the next stage, I''ll remove those three negative traits, and by then, you''ll be a perfect little girl!"
"Confirm!"
[Ding! You have completed the task: Blood Wraith Infant''s Growth, you have received the reward: Blood Wraith Infant''s Taming Level +50, Basic Experience +200]
[Ding! First phase adjustment complete, the Blood Wraith Infant will enter a period of sleep to complete initial correction and shaping.]
...
After practicing marksmanship for half an hour.
Lin En got out of bed.
As usual, he picked up a broom and began his daily cleaning routine.
[Ding! Housekeeping Ability Experience +1]
[Ding! Housekeeping Ability Experience +1]
After cleaning, Lin En picked up the Soul Lantern, carefully lit the tinder with a firestone, then opened the door for business, hanging the Soul Lantern on the doorpost.
Just like yesterday, it was still foggy outside, with nothing visible beyond ten steps.
Placing the Blood Wraith Infant on the counter, Lin En sat down, planning to take a good look at the system''s new features.
"System! Open the shop!"
He couldn''t touch the regular income of the shop.
But the Skull Coins he earned through tasks now totaled 2551, making him quite wealthy.
[Ding! Shop interface opened.]
[Item 1: Toxic Slime Mucus x10 kg: 50 coins]
[Item 2: Fortune Cat Doll that Brings Misfortune x1: 200 coins]
[Item 3: Baby Diapers (Slim Fit) x10 packs: 50 coins]
[Item 4: Flesh Growth Potion Formula (Special Edition): 500 Skull Coins]
[Item 5: Blood Demon Meat Chunk x5: 100 Skull Coins]
[Item 6: Passion Succubus Perfume x1 bottle: 500 Skull Coins]
After looking through the items for sale, Lin En stood up with a whoosh, eyes wide, and said:
"System, are you sure these are the goods you''re selling to me?"
