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

　Of course, Dark would never do something so despicable.

　Moreover, if this matter is exposed, the main culprits, Doron and Pierce, will definitely be punished.

　Fortunately, Doron and Pierce were somewhat sensible and didn't force "The Holy Son" to drink in the common room—I doubt it.

　Those drunkards downstairs seemed to have taken the drinks down for a good time. As long as no one else saw the "Holy Son" looking like a puddle of stinky mud, the matter could be considered a secret buried in memory and temporarily put aside.

　"What a headache, why are they all so troublesome?" Dark patted his forehead and turned to leave.

　He was too lazy to even look at that "holy son".

　I couldn't be bothered to even think about how the "holy son" was successfully persuaded to drink. It was too boring.

　Dark's magical spirits sprang into action after hearing the message from Impmon.

　I believe that the second-grade corridor will soon return to its peaceful state.

　Dak went into his bedroom, sat down at his desk, opened the box, took out the scabbard, and placed it on the table.

　His act of bringing the scabbard back was not without purpose. A scabbard is a sword because there is a sword in it.

　Behind his dormitory, there happened to be a sword without a sheath. Judging from its size, although it was slightly different, it was long enough.

　Therefore, Dark's initial idea was to bring the scabbard back and then try inserting the sword into it.

　Will sheathing the sword trigger something?

　Thinking of this, Darke got up again and picked up the "Emerald Holy Sword" that he had kept in his dormitory for a long time from the shelf.

　"Jade Holy Sword" is a grass-type holy sword. The blade is carved like jade, and the hilt is an oval shape with the center hollowed out. There is no obvious protrusion between the blade and the hilt, meaning there is no guard.

　By passing your hand through the hole in the hilt, you can hold the sword horizontally like a gun, and then... fire a beam cannon like a "sunbelievable beam"!

　Although it differs slightly from traditional swords, the "Emerald Sword" is actually quite useful.

　Throughout his journey to the Free City, Dak carried this holy sword with him. At this moment, he threaded his right hand through the hole in the hilt, gripped it tightly with his other hand, picked up the scabbard with his left, slipped the tip of the sword onto it, and then slowly inserted it.

　When half of the sword was submerged in the scabbard, he suddenly felt a tremor in his hand as he noticed the scabbard vibrating.

　"Moved!"

　Even in Professor Cazell's eyes, the scabbard was nothing special, but after the sword was inserted, things really changed!

　Almost immediately, Dark felt magic flowing from his palm and being channeled into the scabbard by the guide.

　The patterns on the scabbard were faintly glowing. The colors of the patterns carried a hint of the green of the Jade Holy Sword.

　The shape of the scabbard subtly changed as he gradually inserted the "Emerald Holy Sword." Ultimately, it perfectly enveloped the entire blade!

　The design of the scabbard also became a unique streamlined shape because of the "Jade Holy Sword".

　"call out!"

　The sword fits perfectly into its sheath!

　"The Eye of Truth!"

　Dak opened his eyes, which shimmered with golden light.

　The value of the scabbard containing the "Emerald Holy Sword" within the "Eye of Truth" suddenly changed drastically!

　"What's going on?" Dark was shocked.

　He guessed that the value of the scabbard would change, but he never expected it to change so drastically.

　The scabbard was now worth no less than the "Jade Holy Sword." "Whoosh!"

　He suddenly pulled the "Emerald Sword" from its "scabbard" and looked at it again with the "Eye of Truth".

　But the scabbard remained unchanged after the "Jade Holy Sword" was gone; the sword still retained its shape, and the patterns on it had a hint of the green of the Jade Holy Sword.

　And its value has not diminished in the slightest.

　But when his gaze swept over the "Emerald Holy Sword," he suddenly frowned, sensing something strange.

　After a moment's thought, he put the "Jade Holy Sword" back into its sheath.

　After the "Jade Holy Sword" was sheathed, the emerald green light emanating from the blade shone through the openwork patterns of the scabbard, flowing like water ripples.

　Gradually, the material of the scabbard also slowly changed, from the original bronze to a texture resembling jade.

　This range is truly a bit unbelievable.

　Dark stared intently at the scabbard for two or three minutes before suddenly drawing his sword.

　"Open the Eye of Truth!"

　Upon reactivating the "Eye of Truth," the value of the scabbard within it subtly increases.

　Then he turned to look at the "Jade Holy Sword" and found that the value of the holy sword had declined to the same extent!

　The difference between going up and down, between increasing and decreasing, is already quite obvious.

　Dark took a deep breath and whispered, "What on earth is this thing that can absorb the power of the Holy Sword..."

　He placed the "Jade Holy Sword" on the table for the time being and carefully examined the scabbard, which had already developed some jade-like color.

　With his increasingly keen senses, Dark quickly discovered that there was grass-type energy in the scabbard.

　This discovery gave him a sudden inspiration. He took the scabbard to the balcony, then slightly opened the window shutter, threaded the tip of the scabbard through the shutter, pointed it outside, and then tried to infuse the scabbard with magic.

　As the magic gradually dissipated, a faint green light actually began to emanate from the scabbard.

　But the green light flashed twice and then suddenly went out.

　Dark suddenly realized that he lacked the qualities of a hero and was unable to wield the power of the holy sword.

　"Gatomon!"

　At its command, Gatomon, who had just returned from outside, came over.

　Dark bent down slightly and picked up Gatomon. He then handed the scabbard to it and said, "Try it, infuse it with magic."

　Gatomon, completely bewildered, grabbed the scabbard, then in the next second, it frowned sharply and said, "This is the Holy Sword!"

　Dark shook his head and said, "No, this is a scabbard that has absorbed a bit of the Holy Sword's power."

　Gatomon seemed to understand something, and in Dark's arms, it grabbed the scabbard, pointed it out the window, and infused it with magic.

　As magic continued to flow in, a faint green light returned to the scabbard. The green light started from his fingertips, spread all the way to the tip of the scabbard, and then slowly converged at the tip of the sword.

　About thirty seconds later, the green light on the scabbard suddenly shone brightly, and a very clear line appeared from the tail to the tip. Then all the green light followed that line and instantly converged towards the tip of the scabbard, rapidly condensing into a bright ball of light.

　The next second, the ball of light suddenly transformed into a beam of light and shot out into the sky!

　"call out--"

　The beam of light pierced the night sky, then quickly disappeared.

　The students who happened to be looking this way blinked sharply, their faces full of confusion as they walked toward the balcony, but only the remnants of magic remained in the air.

　"Although its power is a bit weak, this is indeed the beam cannon of the 'Emerald Holy Sword'."

　Gatomon spoke in a calm tone, but a faint blush appeared on his cheeks.

　"Okay, you can put me down now."

　After Dark put him down, he took the scabbard from his hand and activated (Eye of Truth) again.

　From the perspective of the "Eye of Truth," the value of the scabbard remains unchanged.

　Even after firing a shot, it did not lose value due to the decrease in energy.

　This clearly means that what the scabbard absorbed from the "Emerald Holy Sword" was power related to the very essence of the Holy Sword!

　If the "Emerald Holy Sword" is kept in its sheath, it will likely absorb all of its power.

　Dark pondered, "What would happen if we inserted other swords? What if we inserted something other than the Holy Sword? What would happen then? And what if we inserted swords manifested from Magic Cards? Let's give it a try!"

Chapter 889 [Seeking 8,000 Votes] People's physical constitutions cannot be generalized (8k)

　Do it when you think of it.

　Dark's dormitory contained no swords other than the "Emerald Sword." However, he possessed a "Single Sheath" that he could summon.

　The experimental procedure is very simple.

　He simply summoned the "single sword sheath" to his side, "weaponized" it, drew the sword from its sheath, and then tried to insert the blade into the special sheath while observing the changes in the magic of the "single sword sheath".

　The final experimental result showed that the magic of the "single sword sheath" was indeed absorbed, and the shape of the sheath changed as a result, becoming a sheath that perfectly matched the blade of the "single sword sheath".

　But Darke, with his "eye of truth," found that the value of the scabbard had not increased as a result.

　When Gatomon tried to wield the sword again, the answer was immediately that the sword's power could not be activated.

　The result is obvious.

　Although the scabbard can change according to the blade of the "single scabbard" and even absorb its magic power, it cannot absorb its original substance—after all, that thing should still be in the magic card.

　If the sword cannot absorb the essence of the Holy Sword, the scabbard itself cannot exert the power of the Holy Sword and is essentially meaningless.

　Thinking this, Dark suddenly said, "Gittomon, try to change this scabbard back to the state where it's inserted into the 'Emerald Sword'."

　"Okay." Gatomon nodded in agreement and immediately channeled its magic power to try it out. The scabbard then transformed at a speed visible to the naked eye! "It actually works!"

　Dark looked at the scabbard, which had transformed into the shape of the "Emerald Holy Sword," and could not hide his shock.

　The confirmation of this transformative ability means that this scabbard can most likely gather the power of multiple holy swords and can be freely switched and used as needed.

　To further confirm this, all that's needed is a second holy sword... Dark did have a second holy sword, but he gifted it to Victoria.

　As long as Victoria doesn't mess around, the holy sword should still be there... However, unless the holy sword is completely absorbed, the scabbard itself cannot fully unleash the power of the holy sword.

　Since Dark has already given the "Blood Sword" to Victoria, there is absolutely no possibility of taking it back.

　Therefore, after careful consideration, he abandoned the idea of ​​using the "Blood Sword" for further experiments.

　Because it makes no sense.

　He didn't even continue trying to let the scabbard absorb the power of the "Emerald Holy Sword," because the scabbard didn't yet belong to him.

　"Upon closer reflection, the mechanism of this scabbard seems to be basically the same as the 'Hero' system."

　"Many candidates with the potential to become heroes must obtain the recognition of a large number of holy swords in order to make up for their thin bloodline of heroes and eventually become true heroes."

　"And this scabbard seems to be able to absorb multiple holy swords, just like the hero's body. In the end... what will it become?"

　A thought struck Dak, and curiosity began to stir within him.

　"But using a scabbard as a sword... there's always a sense of incongruity... hmm."

　Just as Dak was thinking this, he suddenly heard a sound and instinctively turned his head to look.

　Upon seeing this, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.

　But Gatomon, who was holding a scabbard, suddenly made a drawing motion. And then, it drew a jade holy sword formed from pale green magic power from the scabbard!

　How did you do that?

　Dak immediately followed up with questions.

　However, Gatomon looked solemn and examined the Emerald Sword in its hand with great seriousness.

　Suddenly, it raised its hand and shook it forcefully.

　The jade holy sword, formed from condensed magic, shattered suddenly like glass, turning into starlight and dissipating in his hand.

　When Dark was puzzled by this, Gatomon pointed to the scabbard and said, "Take another look."

　Dark realized something and immediately opened his "Eye of Truth." "How is it?" Gatomon asked.

　"The value has decreased, but not by much," Dak said.

　Tailmon said, "That's it. I drew it from this scabbard by mixing a bit of the 'Emerald Sword's' power, which I had absorbed, with my own magic, and it became a sword condensed from magic. But because I extracted so little power, it's very fragile."

　Dark said, "In other words, as long as enough Holy Sword power is extracted, it can be mixed with magic to condense into a Magic Holy Sword that is not much different from the real Holy Sword."

　Tailmon nodded and said, "That's my feeling." Dark's heart skipped a beat: "Let me try."

　But Gatomon gave him a look of disgust and said, "You're no good."

　"Ha." Dark, skeptical, took the sword sheath and infused it with magic. Then, then he believed it.

　Those without the bloodline of a hero cannot wield the power of the Holy Sword, and naturally cannot draw the Holy Sword's essence from its sheath, let alone combine it with magic to create a magical Holy Sword.

　Faced with Gatomon's cold mockery, Dark stubbornly said, "In that case, let's fill the scabbard with an ordinary magic sword!"
