The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　Professor Dimon's office is not far from Professor Merno's office.

　In fact, all the arithmetic professors in the college are located in this area.

　In other words, Professor Lily's office is also here.

　As Dak passed by Professor Lily's office, he knew without even looking that no one was inside.

　Then he stopped in front of the door of the next room, his expression stiff.

　"Isn't this inappropriate, Professor Melno? Can I choose another office?"

　While complaining like this, Dark took out his key and opened the door.

　The office was spacious, but it had all the necessary furnishings and was clearly cleaned.

　He first went behind the desk, sat down in the chair imitating Professor Sylph, struck a couple of poses, and then couldn't help but laugh.

　Men are young until they die.

　Moreover, he is still a teenager, and should be in the prime of his life, not showing signs of premature aging.

　After getting up, Dak walked to the wall and pushed open the hidden door. Sure enough, he saw the lounge hidden inside the office.

　The lounge has a built-in toilet, wardrobe, desk, and bed.

　Brand new bedding was folded on the bed.

　He had initially felt sorry that the teachers' dormitory had been occupied. Now, it was clear that this office was actually a complete dormitory room.

　"This way, I won't have to go back to the dorm every noon. I can also keep all the books for each subject here. I can even take a nap when I have free time. It's perfect except for not having a lab... Oh, I almost forgot I can apply for my own lab!"

　Dak sat up abruptly on the bed, feeling its elasticity, and decided to apply for a lab the next day, and also to try out some materials he had collected during the holidays.

　I feel restless if I don't spend money on in-game purchases for a day!

　"Corona Beast" should be in place by now.

　……

Chapter 796

　Although he was fairly satisfied with his new office, Dak only briefly explored it before leaving.

　After completing the necessary tasks, he would devote all his remaining time to studying the "circular array diagram".

　For him, there was no more important issue than this.

　When he returned to his dormitory, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. He turned on the light, poured himself a glass of apple juice, and continued the research he had not finished the day before.

　Now his understanding of "great sins," especially "bliss," is completely different from before, so he can naturally see more from that "circular array."

　However, deciphering it will require some painstaking effort.

　He was a bit impatient, which caused his "greed" to rise. After calming down and staying calm, he became more efficient.

　At 9:30, Aurora suddenly brought over a late-night snack, so he stopped his research and took the opportunity to relax.

　At ten o'clock, just as he was about to continue his research, he suddenly noticed a light coming from outside the balcony, so he asked the little devil beast that had already returned to open the curtains.

　Sure enough, Professor Mydia's pumpkin carriage was already parked outside.

　Dark stood up with a slight sense of helplessness and led the professor, who was not following the proper path, and Ergane, who had come with her, into the room.

　"Here, here you go."

　Professor Mitia took a copy of the document from her chest and tossed it aside casually.

　Dak reached out and caught it, then looked at it... and found it to be an investigation note about the "Serpent of Wisdom".

　—That's exactly what he wanted!

　Dak immediately opened it and read it from the beginning.

　"So that's how it is, they used the 'brain in a vat'?"

　When Ergani summoned the familiar, she used the "Brain in a Vat" to create an imaginary consciousness for it, making it believe from the root that it was a magical spirit, thus breaking through the limitation that familiars are not aggressive.

　Hmm, that sounds reasonable.

　That makes perfect sense!

　Dark's eyebrows twitched. It was impossible to make a familiar break through its limitations using methods like "dream entry" or "brainwashing." But the "brain in a vat" not only created a simulated consciousness for it, but also truly "made the simulation real," transforming it into a magical spirit!

　This method of "making the fake real" is the true value of the "brain in a vat" as "the authority of God"!

　"It seems you've already figured it out," Professor Mitia said with a soft laugh, her crescent-shaped eyes crinkling.

　Dark pondered for a moment, then said, "Where is the limit?"

　Professor Mitia glanced at Ergani and said, "I don't know yet, but it shouldn't be high. However, as her mastery of the rules grows stronger, her limits will definitely continue to rise."

　Dak nodded and continued reading.

　In addition to explaining why the "Wisdom Serpent" became aggressive, this document also provides a detailed assessment of the "Wisdom Serpent's" abilities.

　The "Serpent of Wisdom" summoned by Ergani originally had two stars. However, after using her authority, she transformed it into three stars!

　Dark wasn't particularly interested in the "Serpent of Wisdom's" inherent abilities. However, the fact that it would upgrade a familiar from two stars to three stars certainly caught his attention.

　If Ergane can master this ability and apply it to other people's familiars, it will be something very promising for him.

　Although familiars are a type of magical spirit, they are quite different from ordinary magical spirits.

　Mages can use "Secondary Alchemy" to evolve and strengthen Magic Spirit Cards, but they cannot apply the same method to familiars that are house cards.

　In other words, Dark couldn't upgrade "Devimon" from one star to three stars, nor could he upgrade "Agumon" and "Gabumon" from two stars to three stars.

　Based on the experience gained from the "Secondary Alchemy" of "Eevee: Monster Hunter," if these three familiars can be upgraded to three stars, their potential can be maximized, allowing them to reach their strongest state after evolution.

　Furthermore, based on the experience of "Eevee: Monster Hunter," even after "Agumon" and "Gabumon" become three-star, "Sin II" can still be used to transfer them into various subspecies.

　Ok.

　Actually, the main reason is still for "Devimon".

　Even after evolving to Champion level, a one-star "Devimon" is only a four-star monster.

　Even though "Devimon" and "Glasdemon" have all their stats maxed out in the four-star category, they are still only four-star after all.

　"Devimon" is gradually falling behind the main group.

　Although it appears cunning and humble, it actually has a very strong sense of self-respect—which may be related to "arrogance".

　Seeing that the newcomers "Agumon" and "Gabumon" are both at least two stars, while it is still only one star, and may even remain one star forever... Dark is really worried that it might suddenly become depressed one day!

　However, Ergane's "brain in a vat" is not such a convenient thing.

　Professor Medea was unable to explore its limits because Ergani had exhausted a great deal of her power and did not have enough divine power to exert the "fake becomes real" effect in a short period of time.

　But if possible, Dark hopes to achieve this goal as quickly as possible before its "loyalty" declines.

　After all, "Devimon" knows far too much!

　Dark wouldn't entrust "Devimon" to Ergane if she wasn't loyal enough.

　Furthermore, to ensure his secrets wouldn't be leaked through "Devimon," Dark needed to thoroughly understand the abilities of the "Brain in a Vat" before asking Ergane for help.

　……

　After reviewing the documents, Dak closed them and asked, "Professor, is there anything I can do for you?"

　Professor Mitya then pointed to Ergani and said, "She's the one who came to find you."

　Dark first showed a puzzled expression, then suddenly realized what was happening and immediately looked a little embarrassed.

　This "god of wisdom" is really stubborn!

　Ergane came so late, naturally to ask him for advice on how to be an assistant.

　She valued her first "profession" since birth, completely unaware that Dark only wanted her to audit classes in the classroom for a few weeks.

　Dark couldn't help but glance at Professor Mitia, feeling that this professor of astrology had deliberately brought Ergani along.

　Under these circumstances, he could no longer afford to be perfunctory, so he took out his math textbook and seriously discussed the teaching process with her.

　……

　Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and Dark finally managed to get rid of Ergani, his eyes filled with exhaustion.

　The wisdom of the "god of wisdom" was more terrifying than he had imagined.

　Ergani actually finished reading the entire "Mathematics I" textbook, which was used as a first-grade math textbook, while she was with Professor Mitia!

　When he discusses the teaching process with Ergani, she will also offer suggestions on the unreasonable aspects of the teaching process, making her seem like a "top-notch assistant".

　On the surface, this "goddess of wisdom" is not cunning and seems easy to fool. It's as if she would follow you if you showed her goldfish.

　But if you really treat her as an innocent and ignorant girl, you will definitely suffer losses.

　Dark prefers to believe that "innocent girl" is her persona, not her true nature.

　However, having such a deity is better than having those vicious and evil gods.

　It wasn't until 11 p.m. that Dak finally managed to get rid of her, but by then he was completely out of sorts and couldn't continue his research.

　He sighed slightly, could only smile helplessly, and then washed up and went to bed.

　I have class tomorrow morning.

　……

　For the first math class of the new first semester, Dark, as the new professor, actually had quite a lot to prepare.

　He moved all his teaching-related materials to his office at 6:30 a.m., ate something in the office, and then continued preparing his lessons.

　In order to allocate his time more systematically, he decided to limit all teaching-related matters to the office and classroom, and to complete all lesson preparation, grading assignments, and other tasks in the office.

　In this way, once he leaves the office, he remains an ordinary second-year student and will not confuse the time of a professor with that of a student.

　As for grading assignments and answering questions after class... these were originally the responsibility of Professor Melno.

　But now that he suddenly has an assistant eager to climb the ladder, Dark has other ideas.

　This person is too smart; she should be given more tasks to do.

　Since you want to be my assistant, then I'll let you be one to your heart's content!

　As Dak sat behind his desk pondering, he realized that the office was missing something—an assistant's desk!

　But these are minor matters; Ergane can apply for it herself when the time comes.

　And when it comes to Ergane... Ergane really does appear...

　"Have you had breakfast?" Dak asked casually.

　“I ate,” Ergani nodded. “I ate with Kazel.”

　"Then... sit down." Dak then casually started talking to her about some things to pay attention to in the upcoming class.

　As Ergani listened, she took the roster and recited the names of all the first-year students from the four houses, along with records of various punishments and rewards.

　Of course, she could read ten lines at a glance and had a photographic memory, so it didn't look like she was memorizing anything.

　……

　7:50 a.m.

　Dak deliberately arrived at the first-grade math classroom ten minutes early.

　The moment he walked into the classroom, the previously noisy classroom instantly fell silent.

　Although the first-year students were mentally prepared to welcome the new professor, they still felt somewhat suppressed when the moment actually arrived.

　After all, having a senior who is only one year ahead of them as a professor is not something easily accepted by many people who are actually proud and arrogant.

　Although the young professor had actually taught them for a semester...

　However, after spending a semester together, the first-year students were unlikely to cause any more trouble.

　With such a senior constantly above you, even the most arrogant person can't be haughty.

　The overall academic performance in the first semester of first grade actually improved.

　Dark walked onto the stage with a businesslike smile, followed by Ergani.

　The students' attention was immediately drawn to the girl, who didn't look much older than them.
