Saying he wanted to be a teacher was just a joke.

Although Qiyana is rebellious by nature, through these years of growth, Qiyana has come to realize that her identity and responsibilities are completely different from before...

At least, one can no longer use "child" as an excuse to avoid making mistakes.

Although he is taught by the Ixialia, Yuan Chen's special status makes it reasonable that even if Qiyana wanted to rebel against the Heavenly Knights, the Yuentar would not agree.

However, one thing is true... I can no longer act as a dancer.

Feeling a faint stinging pain inside his body, Yuan Chen shook his head with a sigh.

But just as Yuan Chen was still thinking, he suddenly seemed to remember something and looked at Qiyana beside him once again.

"Wait... what about the demons and the aura of the Void you just mentioned?"

Yuan Chen wasn't surprised that Qiyana knew about Oshirresh's existence, as it had already been made public before the battle...

Qiyana felt despair at this point. Compared to the Nascent Demon, Ixialia's history was not that long, let alone being able to target them.

Yuan Chen could understand the Demonic Aura... after all, Oshirresh was willing to lend him one of his arms, so he must have had to pay some price.

But... what about the Void? Wasn't that giant killed?

"We're not sure either... Ixialia's understanding of the Void is more detailed than that of the outside world, it's limited to the ethereal beings of the material realm."

After realizing that Yuan Chen had grasped the key point, Qiyana, looking somewhat troubled, started biting her nails, her brows furrowed with seriousness.

"You probably didn't see it, since you lost consciousness after delivering the final blow. But actually, before the giant was completely annihilated, a stream of light shot out from the Hive Herald at its core."

"We tried to stop it, but the surging storm made it impossible for us to move forward. And by the time we got close, the purple light had vanished... Fortunately, you're alright, but only superficially."

"As for the demon... take a look at your hands."

Hand?

Upon hearing Qiyana's words, Yuan Chen was slightly taken aback, then quickly realized that Qiyana wasn't referring to her right hand—

Just now, he glanced at the Dawn emblem on his right hand.

In other words... the left hand?

Before Yuan Chen could think it through, accompanied by the sound of Qiyana clapping her hands, a smooth water mirror appeared in front of Yuan Chen the next moment.

Through the water mirror, Yuan Chen could see his current emaciated and weakened self. Similarly, he could also see his left hand resting outside the Silk Material blanket.

Unlike his right hand, Yuan Chen's left hand has now turned into a familiar bluish-green color.

Dull, low-pitched.

It grows with fine scales, and the original muscle outline has transformed into a structure similar to bones, as if it were wearing a layer of tough leather armor.

But Yuan Chen was certain that he wasn't wearing anything.

After a moment of silence, Yuan Chen shook his head wearily and said casually:

"Although I had expected it, I never imagined I would pay the price in this way."

Yuan Chen had already made preparations when he decided to release Oshirresh...

Nila knew about this too.

However, there was no other way; this matter could only be handled by Yuan Chen. This was because Yuan Chen could use the Temperance Demon's abilities to ensure that Oshirresh remained in harmony within his body.

If it were anyone else, Oshirresh might have broken away from Nila, taken over that free body, and started a Valoran Continent like the Scarecrow.

Wrong.

Fiddlesticks, as a fear demon, spreads fear and scares people; more accurately, he creates haunted houses.

As for Oshirresh, the demon of ecstasy... he'll most likely be involved in some kind of debauchery, drug-fueled orgies, or orgies.

Hmm, I feel like it would be much more popular than a scarecrow.

Thinking it over, Yuan Chen closed his eyes and opened his personal information.

Seeing Yuan Chen's actions, Qiyana was not puzzled—she already knew that Yuan Chen could quickly determine his state through introspection or meditation.

Similar to casting a reconnaissance spell on yourself?

Qiyana wasn't entirely sure either, because the magic of reconnaissance was very broad, and even Ixialia wouldn't dare say he fully understood it.

Name: Yuan Chen

Status: Weak/

Class: Demon - Pain (Epic) LV2 / Demon - Temperance (Epic) LV1 / Dancer and Elemental Mage classes are damaged.

Equipment: Space Silk Bag

Trait:

Oshirresh Mark (Legendary), Positive and Negative Temperance (Legendary), Void Symbiosis (Epic), Wilderness Blessing (Excellent), Dragon Blood Enhancement (Excellent)

/ Monolith's Protection (Promotion pending), Dawn Bringer's Mark (Special, undefined).

Upon seeing his own attributes, Yuan Chen felt a slight sense of doubt.

Yuan Chen wasn't surprised by the loss of the dancer and the elemental mage, as he could clearly feel it from his own physical condition...

To be honest, it's not difficult to regain it, because the knowledge still exists. Under normal circumstances, as long as the body recovers, even if one's meridians, or magical pathways, have changed, one can quickly return to the original level as long as one is familiar with them.

But the problem is... judging from the current situation, the cost to Oshirresh may be even more severe than he imagined.

Although it may appear on the surface to be just an arm that has changed color and grown some scales and bones, in reality, starting with the left arm, the internal structure of his body is no longer that of a native human.

There might even be reproductive isolation. Thinking this, Yuan Chen focused his attention on the special traits.

The Positive and Negative Temperance remain unchanged, retaining their original descriptions. However, the Oshirresh Mark has undergone a new change.

The Oshirresh Mark (Legend):

During the transaction, Oshirresh acquires ten percent of your mental domain.

This overwhelming spiritual power distorted your physical structure in the material realm, making you stronger and surpassing your original limits. All your attributes were greatly enhanced, and mental attacks had a negligible effect on you.

Oshirresh craves more from you, so she undermines your original career foundation. When you encounter a crisis, you can borrow Oshirresh's power through a transaction, but every time you borrow Oshirresh's power, she will try to devour more of you.

From another perspective, she wouldn't hesitate to bestow even more power upon you.

Okay, she's turned into Little Nila.

Yuan Chen sighed inwardly.

However, Nila could suppress Oshirresh's encroaching corruption through prayer and sacrifice.

As for myself... every little bit I borrow is a little less.
