A handsome and powerful inheritor of ancient magic was transformed into a black-maned donkey in the blink of an eye, a sight that was both bizarre and immensely satisfying.
Neil Stinson's recent actions, whether viewed by people from Merada Special Education School or the Ancient Castle Bureau, were highly frowned upon.
Describing this so-called member of the East Federation Six New Stars as "extremely shameless" was even a compliment.
However, after he turned into a donkey, his piercing screams also made people shudder as if they were hearing the tortured soul of a being trapped inside the body of a donkey, suffering the cruelest punishment.
In some ways, this was correct.
Because apart from the Transformation Spell, Stinson was also subjected to an undetectable "Soul Splitting Spell".
His feelings at the moment:
As he was turned into a donkey, his soul felt like butter, and then a scorching dinner knife brutally stabbed into it, forcibly splitting a part of his soul in his defenseless state, Neil Stinson felt like he was losing a lot.
Within the cut-off piece of soul, there were emotions, memories, and some knowledge.
Stinson couldn't speak; he could only express himself through his piercing screams.
He felt desperate and puzzled because of his deceitful nature, Stinson had prepared defensive measures in both his body and soul. Ordinary curses related to bloodlines and souls, or some witchcraft, were ineffective on him.
But facing this excessively young wizard, all his measures seemed to have failed.
Especially the deep "Defensive Magic" in his soul, potent enough to counteract divinity, was perfectly avoided by his opponent.
As that part of his soul was being cut off, Neil Stinson's "hatred" and "intent to kill" began to dissipate, he lost the memories gained after entering the Witch School, drifting into confusion...
Time passed, second by second.
Tang Qi let Neil Stinson, now a donkey, wail in agony for a good ten seconds.
During this time, he made no move.
On that white stone pillar, Neil Stinson's "wife" Nainarani watched the scene calmly.
The crowd had a vague guess about the deal between Tang Qi and this female demon.
Tang Qi would not kill Stinson, but he would give him a lifelong lesson, clearly just part of it now displayed.
After a few dozen breaths, the screams gradually became hoarse.
After all, being a deeply-rooted inheritor of ancient magic, first counteracted, then tortured by the Soul Splitting Spell, he quickly recovered.
His "donkey body" started to show radiance.
It seems, trying to break the Transformation Spell.
Tang Qi did not prevent it. The Transformation Spell he cast required two conditions for dissolution, knowledge of such magic witchcraft by the strong, and sufficient divinity.
Stinson met the first condition, but for the second... he needed Nainarani's cooperation.
Tang Qi turned around, looked at Nainarani, and the insulation box she was holding, along with the gemstone necklace on top that could resist "Power of Dream Eating".
In his eyes, a ghostly light appeared.
[Curios: Ancestor God's Blessing.]
[State: Damaged.]
[Information Fragment One: An ancient Nightmare Gem, having received the blessing of the 'Ancestor God' among the seventy-two Demon Gods, possesses extremely strong power. It can resist almost all negative effects and bring any creature into peaceful sleep.]
[Information Fragment Two: Due to frequent use, erosion by time, and the vicissitudes the 'Ancestor God' himself experienced, it has entered a deep consumption phase, but the remaining power still places it among the high-level wonders.]
...
Barely noticeable, Tang Qi nodded.
Then, without much hesitation, Tang Qi concentrated, and Gluttony spat out a curio, a fuzzy short whip with a cylindrical handle, protruding top, covered in black fur, and faintly visible sharp white teeth inside.
Anyone looking at it could feel a bizarre disharmony.
Pain?
Pleasure?
The two intertwined.
A curio acquired by Tang Qi from the "Dark Plain," its name is the "Sadomasochistic Whip." Before it fell, it was part of a monster called "Deformed Love Cat."
Its effect didn't even require Tang Qi to use any special ability, its intense external manifestations were evident.
Tang Qi did not touch it directly, just letting the whip float above Neil Stinson's back, and promptly proposed another deal to Nainarani.
"Leave behind John and the gemstone necklace, and you can take your husband and this curio."
Clearly, Tang Qi's trade terms were targeted.
In Nainarani's divine position were aspects of desire, and when that whip appeared, her eyes immediately sparkled with excitement, the "desire" evident on her face could not be hidden.
From the whip, she felt a power that was hard for her to refuse.
Even if she was at her peak and had believers, if a believer sacrificed such a curio to her, she would joyfully accept and reward the believer.
Especially now, when she was in distress.
That curio, weaving together pain and pleasure, was of little use in the hands of other transcended beings.
But in her hands, it could unleash unimaginable power.
If the necklace "Ancestor God's Blessing" were intact, she would not have considered it, but the current necklace was at its last strength.
It was also just a little trinket given by the Ancestor God. In ancient times, Nainarani, who was most favored by the Ancestor God, owned a multitude of such curios.
