Nurturing the ghost baby

[Task Introduction: The Evil Spirit Blood Baby has reached the first molding phase at level 10. This stage of molding will determine the ghost baby's future growth direction and temperament. Since you have played a significant role in the early stages of the ghost baby's development, you have earned the privilege to make preliminary adjustments to it.]

[Task Objective: Complete the first phase of molding for the Evil Spirit Blood Baby.]

[Task Reward: Evil Spirit Blood Baby's Taming +50, Experience +200]

Lynne's face was a mask of perplexity. Could this even trigger a task? He scrutinized the task introduction again. He roughly understood the task's requirements and felt a shiver at the growth rate of the Evil Spirit Blood Baby species.

It had been less than a day, and it had astonishingly soared to level 10. And the corruption was severe. Apart from the face he had molded yesterday, every other part of the body had been completely filled with wildly growing tentacles.

"System, what will happen if I let it continue developing like this?"

[Ding! The target is a wicked spirit; the immense resentment within will continuously alter external characteristics. If left unchecked, the target will gradually distort into an extremely malevolent creature and harbor great malice towards the host.]

Lynne: "..."

In other words, before it fully formed, he must constantly suppress the ghost baby's resentment, and once it ceased fearing him, would it annihilate him? It seemed he had truly inherited a considerable calamity.

"In that case, I shall continue to adjust you properly today."

Lynne cracked his wrists, his face stern.

Lynne reached out his hand. He lifted the ghost baby by the back of its neck. Each tentacle dangled listlessly.

Due to the immense fear accumulated towards Lynne from the previous day, it had no desire to resist him at all in his presence. It was like being so terrified of someone that you would become very obedient…

[Evil Spirit Blood Baby's Puzzlement towards you +1]

It stared blankly at the frightening human who lifted it, it cloudy consciousness making it somewhat anxious about what might transpire next.

What is he going to do? Would it be like yesterday, ruthlessly molding it face into a strange shape again?

In the next moment, Lynne grabbed two robust and slippery tentacles on it body, his expression serious, and then, like pulling noodles, he pulled, kneaded, and pushed in an instant!

Ghost Baby (ΩДΩ)!!

[Evil Spirit Blood Baby's Fear Level towards you +20]

"You're still too disobedient, growing so many strange tentacles all over your body without the doctor's permission! This is extremely unhealthy for the growth of a child!"

Lynne (╬￣皿￣) tied those wriggling tentacles in knots, one after another. Swiftly and forcibly, he pushed them back in.

"Let Doctor Lynne give you another makeover!"

Ghost Baby (ΩДΩ)!!

…

[Ding! You have completed the molding of the Evil Spirit Blood Baby's juvenile period and have had a profound impact on its morphological development.]

More than half an hour later, Lynne looked satisfactorily at the ghost baby on the table in front of him. Yesterday, he had only molded the face of the ghost baby; the completion of a full set of services today left Lynne immensely satisfied with his hands-on ability.

Rosy cheeks, chubby little hands, a little baby like a doll. If placed in the human world, it would undoubtedly be the healthy and perfect human child that would light up countless mothers' eyes and make people fall in love with it uncontrollably.

Of course, because there were too many tentacles due to the corruption, even at the end, many tissues remained. So Lynne made a slight adjustment on its body.

Lynne extended his finger. He flicked the cute and small beast ears on its head.

(๑＞︶＜)و

Aren't they super cute?

"Maintain this shape and do not collapse arbitrarily!" Lynne instructed seriously,"Only in this way can you grow up healthily and become a little kid who is loved by all, understand?"

The ghost baby's expression was blank.

[Ding! The initial form of Evil Spirit Blood Baby has been determined, initiating preliminary correction of personality and growth direction.]

[Ding! Digitalization starting… Digitalization complete…]

Lynne was taken aback. And at the next moment, a panel emerged in front of him.

[Evil Spirit Blood Baby]

[Personality Direction: Cunning, Resentful, Murderous]

[Psychological Traits: Distorted, Corrupted, Morbid]

[Growth Direction: An indescribable multi-handed monster. A twisted spirit of resentment brings fear and calamity to people. An evil spirit spreading disaster and slaughter.]

So, this can also be adjusted?

Lynne pondered. After a casual glance, he decisively shook his head. This growth direction is too excessive! This really is a dark world, it doesn't guide people to the right path at all!

Lynne promptly began making adjustments.

A few minutes later.

[Evil Spirit Blood Baby]

[Personality Direction: Sweet, Obedient, Murderous]

[Psychological Traits: Wise, Cute, Morbid]

[Growth Direction: A sweet and lovely little angel. A beautiful baby who brings happiness and tranquility. An evil spirit spreading disaster and slaughter.]

"System, can't I adjust the last part of each entry? I've only adjusted it into a semi-finished product!"

[Ding! Host authority is insufficient; in the first stage, only two features per item can be adjusted.]

"I see," Lynne pondered. Soon, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, he clapped his hands, saying: "Let's leave it at that for now. When you reach the next stage, I'll remove the last two negative traits for you, and by then you'll be a perfect little angel! Confirmed!"

[Ding! You have completed the task: Ghost Baby Growth. You have received the reward: Evil Spirit Blood Baby Taming +50, Experience +200]

[Ding! First stage adjustment completed. The Evil Spirit Blood Baby will enter a period of slumber, completing preliminary correction and molding.]

…

After practicing his shooting for half an hour, Lynne got up. As usual, he took the broom and began his daily cleaning work.

After the cleaning, Lynne took the soul lamp, carefully lit the tinder with flint, and then opened the shop, hanging the soul lamp on the door pillar. Like yesterday, it was still foggy outside the door, and nothing could be seen ten steps away.

Placing the ghost baby on the counter, Lynne sat down, intending to examine the new functions of the system carefully.

"System! Open the mall!"

He couldn't touch the shop's regular income. But the skull coins he earned through tasks, now amounting to a full 2551, definitely make him rich.

[Ding! Mall interface opened.]

[Item 1: Highly Toxic Slime Mucus x10 kg: 50 skull coins]

[Item 2: Fortune Cat Figurine That Brings Misfortune x1: 200 skull coins]

[Item 3: Baby Diapers (Tight Version) x10 packs: 50 skull coins]

[Item 4: Flesh Regeneration Potion Recipe (Special Edition): 500 skull coins]

[Item 5: Blood Demon Flesh x5: 100 skull coins]

[Item 6: Passionate Succubus Perfume x1 bottle: 500 skull coins]

After reviewing the goods for sale, Lynne stood up with a swoosh, his eyes wide open, "System, are you sure these are the goods you are selling to me?"
