Chapter 146 Hassaka: Young Master, Whose Child is This with Which Miss? (10k, 21/76)_6
He reached out to grab the artifact and take it off, only to find that the Seductive Demon Eye had somehow melted the chain and fell straight down.
A blinding red light erupted.
Kael squinted, and when he regained his senses, he saw that the Seductive Demon Eye was embedded in the Gluttonous Slime.
What is going on...
Kael picked up the soft slime lying on the table and tried to remove the eyeball artifact from its head.
However, he failed.
The Seductive Demon Eye was tightly wrapped around the slime, looking as if it had gained a new core.
"Damn it, let go, let go now!"
Kael directly used the power of the totem to try to make it submit. To his astonishment, the little slime whimpered and sent back the message "I can't take it off."
Kael was so angry that he almost spat blood.
The Seductive Demon Eye, this peculiar item, after being activated once, could give its user a permanent buff. The effect was "the experience points gained when using the Seductive Demon Eye skill are permanently doubled and the form of the Seductive Demon Eye can be modified when it is displayed."
This buff was extremely popular among numerous incubus players in the previous life.
To raise the level of the Seductive Demon Eye, the simplest way was to activate the effect of the Seductive Demon Eye once.
And if one possessed the Seductive Demon Eye, the effect of performing the same skill would permanently increase by one level.
Yes, no matter what level you were, it would permanently increase by one level.
But now, this thing had unexpectedly merged into the Gluttonous Slime's body.
Kael had just tested it with his spiritual power, and sure enough, the feedback from the slime was the same...
Now that the Seductive Demon Eye was embedded in it, the artificial circuit had completely integrated with the Seductive Demon Eye, looking as if they were one entity.
Instead, he was the outsider...
Bah, what was wrong with his recent train of thought?
Kael slapped his forehead and quickly guessed a possibility...
It was probably because he had just infused too much totem power, twisting the Gluttonous Slime's instincts, changing it from merely digesting to adapting to foreign objects inside its body and turning those objects into parts of its own body.
As a result, the Gluttonous Slime not only perfectly fused with the artificial circuit but even forcibly merged the twisted demon eye with its body.
Kael looked the slime up and down and began to consider whether to kill it directly and retrieve the Seductive Demon Eye from its corpse.
As if sensing the threat of death, it suddenly jumped up, its body rapidly expanding.
The originally rather dull gray color had transformed into a semi-transparent pink after absorbing part of Kael's body tissue.
It actually looked... kind of cute.
Just as its body kept expanding, it suddenly fell from mid-air, its form undergoing a drastic change.
Knee-length white hair, eyes shaped like hearts, a small body sitting pitifully on the ground, and a majestic eyeball embedded in its forehead.
When it, or rather... she lifted her head, that face which bore a slight resemblance to Kael's looked at him pitifully.
"Young master, what happened?" Hassaka's voice came, footsteps approaching. Kael opened his mouth, wanting to tell her not to come in, but she had already pushed open the door.
The first thing she saw was the face of the Slime Girl, her small body sitting on the ground like a duckling, her hands tightly hugging Kael's leg, making "woo-woo-woo" sounds of grievance.
The atmosphere was incredibly heavy. Hassaka stared at the scene dumbfounded, then forced a smile and said:
"So young master, it turns out you have a preference for this style now. Sorry to have disturbed you!"
With that, she gently closed the door.
Kael opened his mouth and didn't know how to explain.
Just as he was about to ring the bell to call Hassaka back in, the door that had just closed opened again, and Hassaka, looking agitated, said:
"No, young master! This is against Federation law! If it is discovered, there will be trouble!"
Looking at the scene in the room, she was once again stunned.
Seeing Kael pushing away the girl who was trying to climb onto him, she opened her mouth, about to say something.
Kael sighed and said: Don't close the door yet, come in and see what's going on here!
He wasn't about to take the blame for this inexplicable situation, not a chance!
Hassaka, as if guarding against a thief, cautiously closed the door. She didn't want her young master to be monitored by Federation secret agents or competitors. There were plenty of candidates for Duke who would love to catch him in a misstep.
She looked at the girl under the lamp, about to say something, when she saw the small girl turn her head to look at her warily.
That face, partially resembling Kael's, those heart-shaped eyes...

Hassaka cautiously said: "Young master, whose child is this?"
Kael's expression froze, just as he was about to say something, the white-haired Slime Girl wrapped her arms around his neck and her body instantly melted, slipping into his sleeve.
A horrified Hassaka pounced on him, lifting Kael's clothing, and discovered that his upper body was covered with armor-like material.
A baby-fist-sized eyeball on his chest looked around, showing a slightly displeased expression at Hassaka.
"Young master, what... what is this?" Hassaka finally snapped out of it.
This form clearly couldn't be human; it was likely some sort of monster she hadn't heard much about?
Kael sighed and nodded: "Just the Gluttonous Slime you bought earlier."
Hassaka was shocked: "Does this thing have any resemblance to what we just saw?"
Kael poked at the armor on his body, thinking it felt quite interesting.
He had initially wanted to test whether he could reduce the difficulty of a symbiotic knight adapting to a slime symbiotic armor while retaining cognitive ability by having the slime actively cooperate.
But now it seemed that with totem power, he could play around with the slime quite a bit.
...Uh, you know, play around in a very serious manner.
"In any case, although there was a small accident, it appears our ranger is about to undergo a significant enhancement!"
He felt the changes brought about by the slime symbiotic armor on his body.
Hmm? The effect of the Seductive Demon Eye's peculiar item was still active?
Interesting! Does this mean it considers me and the slime as a single entity?
