I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

Li Yue sealed the bone chamber reception room with multiple layers, watched Galarick enter a state of "hibernation", and while Egg and Shadow went outside to greet the housekeeper, he pondered in his mind, also calming his mood.

The magic power of the library has been restored, which should be enough to forcefully impose "self-healing" on Galarick, so Li Yue is not worried; what is more likely to go wrong is the body control and the dissipation of thoughts after losing consciousness.

It is precisely because he needs to control the body that Li Yue needs Shadow to protect him—if Shadow hadn't suppressed Li Yue's body during the last promotion, I'm afraid this brain spirit's body would have exploded directly, and there would have been no future.

As for the dissipation of thoughts... Li Yue can only speculate based on feeling, and hope that there will be no major problems.

Because "imposition" is equivalent to attaching a thought, which is to give one's own thoughts to other substances or creatures, then according to this idea... it will inevitably have an impact on the current environment during the process.

Fortunately, the imposed thought is "self-healing", at least it is not something destructive like explosion or destruction, nor is it abstract like Budhiberg's "escape", it should still be within a comprehensible range, and you can try to make some preparations.

According to Li Yue's imagination, if he cannot control his thoughts during the promotion process, and then feeds the entire bone chamber reception room with the thought of "self-healing", then the Self-Healing Bone, Binding Thread, Magic Wolf's Tooth, Lava Right Hand and other materials... will they all heal themselves?

To what extent will it heal?

Could a Bosch be born from the Lava Right Hand? A Book Demon from the Binding Thread? A Finley composed of Magic Wolf's Teeth?

Li Yue didn't think so.

After all, these things have no soul, how can they regain life?

Even if the promotion is so mysterious, the brain spirit is not a god...

But thinking deeper, Li Yue was a little scared—where did Budhiberg's imaginary objects come from? The silver fish that burrowed around in the library, the magician holding the filthy heart, the young golden armored warrior... Could it be that they were also created in this way?

No, no...

Budhiberg doesn't have the Self-Healing Bone as a sensor, so there is no reason to let the demons heal themselves. Sharface and the silver fish should all be his imagination, which is the next stage.

Li Yue could only comfort himself like this, and then waited for Egg and Shadow to come back.

Egg was floating under the support of the particles, and Shadow seemed to be blaming it.

"Why did you eat that dagger?"

"He brought it to my mouth, what can I do?" Egg was also a little unhappy, "Friend, whose shadow are you anyway?"

"Tonight, I am his shadow." Shadow pointed a huge arrow at Li Yue, "He is going to be promoted, I must share this experience with him..."

"Are you willing?" Shadow asked Li Yue.

"Okay..." Li Yue just remembered that the current Shadow becomes stronger according to the strengthening of the parasitic object, and he would be happy to help Shadow—with Shadow parasitizing, protecting himself would be smoother.

And with Li Yue's permission, Shadow instantly moved from Egg's body, the whole process was quick and simple.

"Can you switch at will? I thought you had to completely control a demon before you could." Li Yue didn't expect Shadow to be so relaxed.

"Only a few times... is possible." Shadow's handwriting instantly faded a lot, as if it was adapting to Li Yue's shadow, but Li Yue didn't feel anything different from before.

Then, Li Yue suddenly found that his skull opened its mouth, and asked his shadow on the ground instead of himself: "Are you willing... to sign a life contract with me?"

Huh?? Li Yue didn't know what Shadow was doing.

"We will always stand together, and death cannot separate us..." The skull was still saying inexplicable words.

"I am willing." Shadow controlled Li Yue to ask and answer himself, agreeing to a line of solemn words.

Then, Li Yue suddenly discovered... that there was a strong spiritual bond between himself and Shadow, and from then on, they could never harm each other, and even such thoughts were not allowed.

Although there was no such thought originally.

Li Yue, who had read Budhiberg's forbidden books hidden in the upper layer, of course knew that this was a soul contract, and it was the most advanced one, a life contract—a contract that could only be signed between two absolutely friendly souls.

【Before going to join the Demon Expeditionary Force... I want to have an absolute bond with you...】

Shadow's heartfelt voice also fell into Li Yue's mind.

What the demon cocoon is this... what's going on?

Before the promotion, Shadow took the opportunity to grab himself and forcibly bound him?

Marriage?

"No, this is not marriage, marriage is very troublesome, right?" Shadow seemed to be able to see through Li Yue's thoughts, knowing what he was thinking, and directly answered by writing on the shadow.

Li Yue immediately thought of proposals, engagements, diamond rings and other items.

"Oh... so there are these things..." Shadow also used shadows to display these in turn, pointing to the diamond shape, "This thing seems to be very good-looking, is there holy light on it?"

"No..." Li Yue suddenly felt a little uncomfortable with this kind of communication—in this way, I can understand you with the Demon Illustrated Handbook, and you can read me with the shadow?

What the demon cocoon is this... is it also a kind of telepathy?

Li Yue was a little dazed.

"Yes, that's it." Shadow affirmed, and Li Yue also felt its... oh no, his joy.

"Hey, what are you two doing?" Egg also came over, blocking the marriage-related props and rituals on the ground.

"So... so it is..." Shadow ignored Egg, constantly savoring the bits and pieces from the meeting to the present from Li Yue's consciousness, and at the same time figured out the brain spirit's "promotion science"...

Li Yue understood Li Yue's current worries—what kind of environmental changes will the imposition of "self-healing" cause, and what kind of chaos will it cause?

"For your promotion, I must do this..." Shadow explained to Li Yue, and Li Yue was not sure if it was really so.

"I will help you watch..." Shadow comforted Li Yue, and Li Yue also frankly accepted this fact.

"Okay, let's try." Li Yue said, and at the same time communicated with Shadow in his mind about the dangerous points of the promotion.

"How annoying..." Egg didn't have Shadow by his side, and was very unaccustomed to the current way of communication for a while, "Friend, you are so... very impolite."

Li Yue also conveyed his concerns about this "promotion" to Egg in the form of telepathy, reminding it and Shadow to be prepared and adapt to various possible situations.

"Let's talk about the whispers later! Your promotion... is left to us!" Egg stretched out the scattered particles, as if he was going to do something big.

Galarick was still sleeping in the center of the bone chamber reception room, but Li Yue knew that everything would start from this pile of broken bones,

If the promotion is successful, can Li Yue's brain spirit body also be considered a mid-level or high-level demon?

Whether magic power, perception, mental power, and concentration can be further improved depends on this time.

"Let's start!" Li Yue didn't hesitate too much, and began to forcefully impose the idea of "self-healing" on Galarick in the center of the bone chamber reception room.

The magic power of the library was rapidly consumed under the influence of the scepter, and the damaged bone quality on Galarick's body began to recover visibly, and changed from the original gray-white color to Skerrick's pearly white, approaching the texture of the "Self-Healing Bone".

Immediately afterwards, Egg's particles began to vibrate, and the bone sword inserted next to it also tilted, as if it was related to Li Yue's level of sobriety.

And the brain spirit's pituitary gland suddenly swelled up a circle, as if it was producing a steady stream of hormones, surging to Li Yue's fleshy brain spirit body, causing some kind of discoloration.

It was not Budhiberg's dark brown, but rather a hint of scarlet.

And neither Li Yue, Shadow, nor Egg had thought that, along with the deep imposition of the "self-healing" thought, the first unexpected change... actually happened in the Sixth Library!
