The Strongest Curse Master

Chapter 209: Dual Curse Core

Chapter 209: Dual Curse Core

The Advanced Curse Core Initiation Array Formation—it wasn't just a signature of the McSuile family. Anyone who was anyone in the 'World of Curses' had their own version of it. After all, this formation was the ultimate last-ditch effort, squeezing out the full potential of a curse master when they had nothing else left to give.

Janice glanced sideways at Lola before turning to her brother. Her voice carried a mix of caution and curiosity. "Maybe we shouldn't underestimate her. I mean, she's survived this long with, like, an actual time bomb ticking away in her chest." She folded her arms and tilted her head, clearly thinking it through. In her mind, the reason Lola hadn't been completely overwhelmed by the curse was her soul—a rare mix of strength and gentleness. It was like a shield, holding everything in check, especially when she was around people she trusted, like her parents… and oddly enough, Mandy and her nephews.

Jason exhaled deeply, rubbing the back of his neck as he mulled it over. "We could take a chance, sure. But if she tries now, she's just gonna end up condensing a Knight-tier curse core. That'll do her no favors." He shook his head, frustration creeping into his tone. "It'll make things way harder for her to pick up the basics. Maybe…" He trailed off, tapping his fingers against his thigh.

"Maybe I should help her vent some of the emotions she's been bottling up. That way, she gets a regular, easier start, just like the rest of us," Jason finally said, his brow furrowed in thought. He knew full well that if Lola attempted to form a curse core now, it'd almost certainly end up being Knight-tier, that was only if she somehow stayed conscious through the process, for a mortal that would only make things harder, not easier. He was convinced his approach—helping her let out some of that emotion in her heart—might just give her a higher chance of becoming a curse master and not give birth to a curse Ling with her death.
