Chapter 210: Anomaly

"Help her condense two curse cores? What have you been smoking?" Jason teased, raising an eyebrow at his younger sister. He leaned back with a smirk, clearly thinking she'd lost her mind. "As a curse crafter, you should know better than anyone that one Knight-tier core isn't the same as two Mortal-tier cores."

Janice's eyes narrowed, and her lips curved into a sharp, humorless smile. "You dimwit," she shot back, her tone laced with irritation. "I never said that." She folded her arms and leaned forward, her gaze drilling into him. "Listen carefully, because I'm only saying this once. If a curse core is 0.01 unit away from becoming a Knight-tier curse core, it's still a Mortal-tier core. And if someone condenses a curse core with the bare minimum curse energy, it's still classified as a Mortal-tier core."

She paused for effect, letting her words sink in, then arched an eyebrow. "Do you get where I'm going with this, or is your brain too dull? Should I dumb it down for you?"

Jason blinked, caught slightly off guard by her brutal tone, though he tried to mask his surprise. Janice didn't care. She wasn't about to spare him just because he was her older brother. Mocking her intelligence and her craft as a curse crafter? Oh, no. He wasn't getting away with that.

"But how is she going to pull that off?" Jason asked, leaning forward slightly, his brows knit in thought. He understood Janice's plan clearly enough, but he couldn't wrap his head around how she intended to help Lola execute something so unconventional. After a moment, he added, almost to himself, "I wonder why no one's ever tried condensing two curse cores at the same time before."
