Default Curse! Malign Mirror and Truly Obnoxiuos Curse! interaction

I am a Human Woman at level 1 and I have equipped Broad Sword (+3) and Sneaky Bastard Sword (+2) and I have carried Yuppie Water (no bonus). My total strenght is 3+2+0+1 = 6

I get cursed with Curse! Malign Mirror so my total strenght go to 1 (0+0+0+1)

Now I get also cursed with Truly Obnoxiuos Curse!. If at that moment no item give me bonus (because Malign Mirror), can I decide to discard Yuppie Water instead of Broad Sword?

Pretty sure the answer is "no".

i would like you keep in mind this quote for the answer:

If you HAVE no equipped Items that give you a combat bonus, then by definition the highest bonus any of your Items are giving you is +0 and you must discard one Item of your choice, equipped or not.

No. The Malign Mirror only means you don't get to use the bonuses from your Items during that one fight. It doesn't mean those bonuses now count as zero for all other purposes.
