?"What changed, you ask? Well, for starters, you have four things that enabled me able to give you this information. The first is that ritual array. The second is that gray cylinder. Third, you have an Epic Body now. Andst, the Titan Tears!"


    Jacob''s eyes widened, "You know what''s inside that Cylinder as well?"


    "Hehehe… what do you think?" Immortika questioned in relish.


    Jacob''s expression darkened, "I should''ve guessed sooner. Still, what were you nning when you told me to nurture Brain Hunter without warning about its background? If I''m not wrong, you know the Titan Tears can easily help the Brain Hunter to enter a 1-Star Rank. Don''t make me doubt your intentions." His voice was icy cold as he looked at the hovering book with knife-like eyes.


    He was not a fool who would be happy just because he got some unexpected opportunity out of the blue.


    The Brain Hunter''s background was simply too terrifying, and if he had nurtured it ording to Immortika without knowing anything about it. Once it breaks free from his control, it would be akin to nurturing a venomous snake that can kill him thousands of times the moment he lets his guard down.


    This could be considered a scheme of Immortika to harm him, and just this possibility was enough to make Jacob never trust Cursed Immortality again.


    Although he knew he needed Cursed Immortality to reach his goal, then he would also be looking for ways to defend himself in case things went south. But it was even more impossible since Immortika could monitor his every single move.


    That''s why Jacob didn''t want any misunderstanding between them, and as long as Immortika had a proper exnation, he was willing to listen.


    Just like the part about he had clear certain conditions for it to speak, and it was convincing. But he still doesn''t understand why it wanted him to nurture the Brain Hunter without any proper warning.


    This stands out like a sore thumb in Jacob''s mind, and he won''t be at ease unless he gets a satisfactory answer.


    "Hehe, this attitude of yours will really help you go far, and that''s why I like you even more. You can always keep me entertained one way or another, and I don''t want my source of entertainment getting all vignt of every single thing.


    "So, I''ll rify your childish doubts. First, I want to bring the Brain Hunter at 1-Star because it will awaken its racial ability once it develops its 1-Star Core, which is actually the rarest type of magic core in existence, a Growth Type Magic Core!


    "As for what a growth type magic core is, for starters, a growth type magic core''s magic element can evolve into a stronger element each time the user crosses a major magic rank. Like if someone had a Water-type growth magic core, then it could evolve further into Mist, Ice, or even cloud.


    "The Brain Hunter also has a unique magic element because it belonged to the Fantastic Insect Race. It''s called Puppet Poison Magic Core which can turn anyone into its puppet, and there''s no escape once the poison takes effect.


    "But it still depends on whom the puppet poison is getting used against, and it can also be broken under certain conditions, or this guy would be in the top ten ranking of Fantastic Insects!"


    Jacob felt his scalp tingle in trepidation when he read about this new information and instantly blurted, "And you still wanted me to nurture it without even telling me all this? Or are you nning to tell me when I turn into its puppet?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    He was really indignant about this revtion, and now he was considering if he should continue to listen to Immortika''s every suggestion blinding.


    In reply, "Tsk, tsk, you still have no idea about your body, do you? The Puppet Poison of Star Magic Rank Brain Hunter would never have worked on you at all. As I said, it depends on who it is using that poison on, and there is a certain condition that can break the effect.


    "You have not only poison immunity of the same rank as your physical strength, but after your cursed heart was formed, you also can''t be enved by some poison or item anymore unless it''s three whole ranks stronger than your physique. Even if you''re enved, once you out-strength the envement object, you''ll be free again!


    "Besides, you and I both know you would''ve never nurtured that little fellow without making sure it''spletely under your control."


    Jacob was bbergasted by this new information, especially about this immunity.


    "What the hell am I only hearing it now?" Jacob questioned while gritting his teeth.


    This immunity, especially from envement objects, was not a joke because he could escape many deadly situations if he used his wits correctly.


    "Hehehe, told you before, you have achieved four things that enabled me to tell you all this, so I thought this little information about your cursed heart in the mix since it''s rted to our topic.


    "Just remember your heart is not ordinary anymore, and never put limits on yourself by doubting everything around you. Vignce is good, but paranoia is sometimes deadly."


    Jacob inhaled deeply to calm his emotions, and he knew Immortika was right this time. Ofte, he really started to doubt everything around him, especially when he knew he was dealing with strong people.


    He always ends up thinking they were scheming against him just because they are strong. In most cases, he was right, but sometime, he couldn''t just believe anything he felt unless he had evidence.


    Still, it wasn''t a w he was worried about, and he knew he was far from being paranoid, especially when he knew this world was notwful and only strong makesw here.


    "So, what was your n?" He asked with a calm tone.


    Although half of the doubt rted to Immortika has been vanquished, he was not clear about why it wanted him to nurture Brain Hunter without telling him about its background.


    "Hehehe, actually...!"
