Lynn faced an enraged Colossus Brain, who believed his thoughts about sleeping with her and Zuo Zuo had dishonored the entire Colossus Civilization, and she tried to castrate him. After Zuo Zuo helped restrain him and the two interrogated him, Lynn remained tied up while they continued to condemn him.

• The Colossus Brain sensed something was wrong and tried to leave, but Lynn apologized to her from behind and made her stop.

Lynn told the Colossus Brain that he feared Hell's coming judgment and regretted possibly being unable to free her from her curse.

• The Colossus Brain asked Lynn whether he had done those things because he wanted to help her.

Lynn persuaded the Colossus Brain to help repair his [Curse Eye], claiming it could improve his chances of surviving Hell’s gaze in two days. The Origins planned to use the condition Brain had secured from him to force him into their Summoning Plan, while the Titan Head grew suspicious that Lynn had improper designs on Brain.

• Lynn asked the Colossus Brain to gather help repairing his [Curse Eye], and she agreed in exchange for a condition.
• Lynn and the Colossus Brain joined the other Origins and Sir Awen in Dark Night City’s plaza.
• The Origins privately discussed their Summoning Plan and revealed that Brain intended to use her condition to make Lynn accept it in two days.
• The Titan Head accused the Colossus Brain of having improper designs on Lynn, and she retorted that Lynn was the one pursuing her.

The Origins concealed the spread of rumors about Lynn while focusing on the coming Summoning Ritual, and Lynn asked them to help repair his Curse Eye fragments. He tested his [God's Equation] on Sir Awen's broken surveillance device and received a bizarrely modified version.

• Sir Awen said creatures from at least fifteen worlds had encountered the distributed summoning incantation and that the ritual in two days was progressing well.
• The Witch God Head and the Origins agreed not to tell Lynn that rumors calling him a perverted lolicon had spread across worlds.
• Lynn noticed mysterious renown notifications and suspected his family was plotting something, but Titan Head distracted him with talk of family.
• Lynn explained [God's Equation] and asked the Origins to provide power to repair his Curse Eye fragments, then offered to demonstrate the ability.
• Sir Awen gave Lynn a malfunctioning surveillance device, and Lynn used [God's Equation] to repair it.
• The system reported that Lynn had obtained a bizarrely modified Visual Reconnaissance Device, leaving him worried it had become another dangerous weapon.

Lynn repaired Sir Awen’s device, but his modifications caused it to project Sir Awen into a women’s bathhouse while searching for Night Doctors. Sir Awen retaliated by forcing Lynn to try the device, leaving Lynn’s fate unclear.

• Lynn finished repairing Sir Awen’s device, and Sir Awen examined it before activating it to search for a Night Doctor.
• The device showed a bathhouse full of naked female Night Doctors and projected Sir Awen’s hologram into their view, prompting them to scream and accuse him of peeping.
• Sir Awen panicked and struggled to remove the device, and Lynn helped pull it off his eyes.
• Sir Awen worried that the incident would ruin his reputation, then demanded that Lynn personally test the device.
• Sir Awen pinned Lynn down, forced the device over his eyes, and activated it.

Lynn tried Sir Awen’s device and saw the Matriarch undressing, then accidentally spoke to her through the projection while Sir Awen tried to stop him. After Lynn admitted he had sketched her, he tore off the device and tried to escape the plaza.

• Sir Awen forced Lynn to try the device, and Lynn quietly began sketching the scene he saw.
• Sir Awen recognized Lynn’s drawing of the Matriarch and desperately tried to pull the device off him.
• The Matriarch spoke through the device, and Lynn tried to explain that he had only tested it by chance.
• Lynn assured the Matriarch he had seen nothing, then revealed he had sketched her undressing.
• Lynn tore off the device, drew his Warp Scythe, and shouted that everyone should let him leave first.

Lynn tried to improve his odds of repairing the Curse Eye by deliberately using poisoned recovery potions to force several failures first. The chapter ended as he began using his ability on the first potion, while the others watched in disbelief.

• Lynn stored the dangerous device he had created and moved the group to a helipad outside the city after the explosions in the underground hall.
• Lynn explained that his ability could repair damaged items but might also twist them, and asked the others to help him repair the Curse Eye.
• Lynn claimed that Hell's gaze might spoil his luck and mixed his toxic pesticide into Leviathan's recovery potions to ruin them.
• Sir Awen objected that Lynn's plan to burn through bad luck had no basis, but Lynn argued that mysticism was normal in a fantasy world.
• Lynn began using his ability on the poisoned recovery potion, telling the others he was counting on them.

Lynn used God's Equation to repair his shattered Curse Eye, but the result was a dangerously modded version that left him devastated. Sir Awen tried to reassure him, while the bouncing eyeball hinted at the trouble it might cause.

• Lynn repaired dozens of Recovery Potions with help from Sir Awen and the others, then endured a streak of modded results before attempting to fix his Curse Eye.
• Lynn successfully repaired the Curse Eye into a “True · Divinely Chosen Epic 'Modded' Enhanced Edition,” then fainted from shock.
• After half an hour of resuscitation, Lynn woke up distraught and asked Sir Awen to test the eyeball for him.
• Sir Awen dropped the eyeball when he learned its version, and it bounced back into Lynn's hand.
• Sir Awen warned Lynn that the modded eye could cause trouble, then tried to cheer him up by calling his unlikely result proof of exceptional luck.

Lynn struggled to find someone willing to help him test the extraordinarily modified Curse Eye, then installed it himself and activated a curse. As the Curse Eye began drawing power from his body, his pupil suddenly dilated.

• Sir Awen vanished after declining to help Lynn test the Curse Eye, and the Colossus Brain soon disappeared as well.
• The Titan Head asked how the eye could be installed, but Lynn decided against trying to fit it into the Titan's or Witch God's enormous socket.
• Lynn examined the Curse Eye's description and discovered that it seemed to maintain eye contact with him wherever he looked.
• Lynn installed the Curse Eye in his right socket and activated the Insect Swarm Hatchery curse against a wall.
• The Curse Eye contracted violently, Lynn's Colossus Heart began pounding, and power rushed into his right eye as his pupil dilated.

Lynn’s modified Curse Eye triggered its highest demonization effect, spreading a catastrophic insect-swarm curse across half of Dark Night City. After dying to stop the curse, he revived through Angel’s Kiss and fled the Matriarch’s pursuit while seeking another resurrection chance.

• The Curse Eye rolled a six and drained Lynn’s strength as its curse spread through the hotel and engulfed half of Dark Night City.
• Lynn activated M-Power to endure the overload, then shot himself with the Witcher Revolver to end the curse.
• Angel’s Kiss revived Lynn, and he retrieved the Curse Eye while deciding to test its other possible effects.
• Lynn obtained Angel’s Kiss again and escaped the Matriarch’s pursuit near the High Tower in Dark Night City.

Lynn tested his Curse Eye’s Fate’s Dice ability and discovered that one result made the eye emerge as a horrifying tentacled creature. He used Mimicry to transform it into a little girl with tentacles, though it continued trying to cast a curse.

• Lynn rolled a 3 while using Insect Swarm Hatchery and found that the Curse Eye worked normally with that result.
• Lynn tried to curse a stool with 100% Miss and rolled a 1, causing his Curse Eye to crawl out of its socket as a tentacled monster.
• Lynn lost Sanity Value at the sight of the creature and grabbed it before it could finish speaking.
• Lynn used Mimicry on the Curse Eye creature, transforming it into a tiny girl with tentacles that kept murmuring about casting a curse.

Lynn questioned the eye-tentacle creature that emerged after his Curse Eye roll, learning that it could cast a curse in exchange for nutrients. He realized he could not choose which curse it cast and had to decide what to offer it.

• Lynn examined the creature, which Mimicry had turned into a small girl, and asked whether it could cast curses without causing him backlash.
• The creature repeated that it would cast one curse for one portion of nutrients, while Zuo Zuo accused Lynn of reacting strangely to the monster.
• Lynn asked what nutrients the creature accepted, and it named blood, bone marrow, brain tissue, and souls.
• Lynn asked whether he could choose the curse, but the creature indicated that his choice was already fixed and could not be changed.
• Lynn concluded that he still had to rely on chance and considered which nutrient to offer in exchange.

Lynn proposed providing the Curse Eye with a regenerating nutrient instead of blood or brain matter, while Zuo Zuo reacted with horror to his suggestion. The Curse Eye requested a sample and asked how to obtain it, and Lynn offered to teach it in detail.

• Lynn realized he could offer a regenerating nutrient to the Curse Eye instead of risking his blood or brain matter.
• Lynn suggested the censored nutrient, and Zuo Zuo grabbed his collar and accused him of having nasty ideas.
• Lynn insisted the proposal was a practical way to avoid sacrificing blood in a crisis and restrained Zuo Zuo as he continued the negotiation.
• The Curse Eye requested a sample for analysis, and Lynn told it to collect one itself because obtaining it was difficult.
• The Curse Eye asked how the process worked, and Lynn said he could teach it in detail.

Lynn made a trade with his Curse Eye, which took nourishment in exchange for releasing a Curse for him. The deal succeeded, and Lynn accepted the system’s new classification of him as chaotic evil.

• Lynn justified trading with his Curse Eye by reminding himself that she was still a Tentacle Monster beneath her borrowed form.
• Zuo Zuo screamed and tried to block out Lynn and the Curse Eye’s conversation, while the system reported that Lynn’s morality was falling and his happiness was rising.
• Afterward, Lynn wondered why the deal had triggered an achievement and changed someone’s faction label.
• The Curse Eye said the nourishment suited her and offered to release a Curse in exchange for all of the remaining nourishment.
• Lynn agreed to give her everything, insisting that he honored equivalent exchange.

After Lynn used the Curse Eye to remove the curse from a chair, the transformed eye could no longer fit back into his socket. He offered to restore her original form in exchange for learning the effects of the other numbers on her die, then sweetened the deal with more blood.

• Lynn exhausted his energy and released the 100% Miss curse on the chair, ending his demonization.
• The Curse Eye failed repeatedly to return to Lynn’s socket because Mimicry took precedence over her transformation.
• Lynn told the Curse Eye he could help her return to her original form and proposed another transaction.
• The Curse Eye rejected his request to reveal the die’s other effects, while Zuo Zuo recognized Lynn’s attempt to get another freebie.
• Lynn offered to keep the previous terms and add another half-jin of blood if the Curse Eye agreed.

Lynn persuaded the Little Eye Loli to reveal the danger of rolling a 4, then flooded her with blood in an attempt to bribe her into adjusting the odds. After earning an achievement for corrupting Curse Eye’s integrity, he helped the overfed Little Eye Loli return to his eye socket and reminded her to favor him next time.

• The Little Eye Loli agreed to reveal one thing in exchange for Lynn’s blood, and Lynn asked about rolling a 4.
• The Little Eye Loli explained that a 4 triggered a demonization effect in which the lower roller received an instant-death curse, and matching rolls killed both participants.
• Lynn tried to bribe the Little Eye Loli to weaken the effect, but she resisted trading power for blood.
• Lynn used Flesh Cataclysm to pour blood into the Little Eye Loli until she stopped resisting and drank her fill.
• Lynn earned the Corruption of the Cross-Eyed Loli achievement and helped the overfed Little Eye Loli climb back into his eye socket, urging her to adjust the odds for him later.

After recovering from his ordeal with the Curse Eye, Lynn took Yin Yi to Dark Night City's Career Hall to introduce her to the Night Doctors. When an escaped patient caused an alarm, Lynn joined the doctors in beating him, leaving Yin Yi stunned by the gap between Lynn's promises and reality.

• Lynn identified four properties of the Curse Eye and used Recovery Potions to replenish his blood and energy.
• Lynn traveled with Yin Yi to the Career Hall, where he praised its Night Doctors as paragons of morality.
• An escaped patient from the Healing Center rushed into the Career Hall, triggering alarms and a reward announcement.
• A Night Doctor struck the patient with a syringe, and the doctors swarmed him with improvised weapons.
• Yin Yi discovered Lynn had joined the crowd and was swinging a crutch at the patient.
