""Abnormality?"
Gary Smith was confused. He had not even fully figured out the Spiritual Puzzle, and now he was dealing with abnormalities.
Normally, wouldn't he avoid such things?
After all, once a Beastmaster is excessively corroded by spirit energy, it would directly contaminate his blood and flesh and his soul. The former is manageable, as long as there's money, it could be fixed by professional medical Beastmasters.
If worse comes to worst, he could even go to the Mechanism King's Domain to get a mechanical prosthetic and join in the honorable evolution.
However, abnormalities in the soul are troublesome, difficult to remedy, and even if it is miraculously saved, there would be significant changes in temperament and even the development of special quirks.
For example.... a preference for devouring the blood and flesh of one's own kind, and brains!
