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

　Dark's bond with Agumon is naturally far weaker than that of Devimon.

　As for the difference between one star and two stars, it's not that big.

　However, Agumon's evolved form, "BlackGreymon," is a five-star Magical Spirit, one star higher than "Devimon." Therefore, it definitely requires more mental power.

　With the help of "Devimon", Dark arrived at the clubroom, greeted the two upperclassmen who happened to be reading there, and then brought "Agumon" to the open space in the middle of the classroom to begin the experiment.

　Agumon, summoned after being sealed in the "Curse Cage," was completely bewildered. Several curious magical spirits also gathered around, but only "Devimon" spread its wings and floated in mid-air, looking wicked and cunning.

　Dark crouched down and said to Cursed Cage: Agumon, "Focus your attention, recall the feeling of evolving. The moment to prove the bond between us has arrived."

　Agumon's heart stirred, and its eyes suddenly hardened.

　Although it still didn't understand what Dark was trying to say, if it was about bonds, it would never be inferior to anyone in its lifetime!

　The blood was boiling!

　Seeing Agumon's sudden burst of excitement, Dark quickly grasped some key points.

　This made him smile and say, "Pay attention, I'm starting."

　The next moment, he focused his attention and channeled his mental power into Agumon's body.

　Agumon almost immediately felt a sense of fullness from it.

　It felt three parts similar to the feeling it had during its evolution, yet three parts different.

　But it doesn’t matter.

　It will always believe in the bond between itself and Dark!

　In that instant, an exceptionally powerful light of evolution erupted from its body! Dark's eyes widened suddenly, a look of utter surprise on his face. And "Devimon," which was flying in mid-air with its arms crossed, couldn't help but steal a glance in their direction.

　"Roar--"

　Under the astonished gaze of all the magical spirits, Agumon's body rapidly grew larger, its head easily reaching the ceiling, causing it to bend over to avoid causing damage.

　Once its body solidified from its luminous form, it had clearly completed the evolution from its growth stage to maturity!

　Moreover, what it evolved into was not the blue-black "BlackGreymon" or the ferocious "Greymon", but the more peaceful "Greymon"!

　"It's a Greymon!"

　Dak suddenly looked up, a look of joy in his eyes.

　He knew perfectly well that "Greymon" was a stronger Digimon than "Greymon". But he couldn't help it; his feelings for "Greymon" were impossible to hide.

　In his memory, the only correct evolutionary path is for Agumon to evolve into Greymon, then into MetalGreymon, and finally into WarGreymon.

　That has absolutely nothing to do with "strength" or anything like that.

　At this moment, he was like those guys who called themselves "XP" party members, only caring about appearances and not strength.

　However, after calming down, he still did some analysis.

　The evolution path of "Greymon" is one that "Curse Cage: Agumon" has not shown before.

　He initially thought that the "Pride" path would lead to "Greymon". But it actually turned out to be "Greymon", and then he analyzed that the evolution path of "Greymon" should be on the fire-type "Sloth" path.

　Since "laziness" seemed a long way off, he was actually prepared to not see the "Greymon" route anytime soon.

　But now, relying solely on the infusion of mental power, "CurseCage: Agumon" has successfully evolved into "CurseCage: Greymon"!

　Moreover, when he infused his mental power, he clearly felt a surge of emotion within him that was very similar to Agumon's state at that time.

　He couldn't determine whether it was "courage," but he was certain that Agumon's state at the time was very suitable for "mind evolution."

　This can be clearly seen from the Mind Blade he consumed and the consumption during the evolution of An Di Ding o-.

　—Mind magic, indeed a very idealistic concept. Dark raised his fist at the "Tyrannomon" that was looking over, and quickly poured magic power into it to check its magic cards.

　Soon, feedback was received.

　[Image: Tyrannomon]

　Card Name: Tyrannomon

　[Type: Spirit Card]

　[Level: co6ool]

　[Race: Dragon]

　[Type: Dragon/Fire]

　【Magic Power: 2400】

　[Attack: 2500]

　[Defense: 2300]

　[Special Moves: Super Flame, Wall of Flames, Flame Chair Corner]

　Apart from slight differences in card name and attributes.

　The stats of "Greymon" are almost identical to those of "BlackGreymon", and even their special moves are the same.

　But none of that matters.

　Dark's gaze involuntarily drifted to Gabumon among the onlookers! Since Agumon could evolve into Greymon so easily, evolving Gabumon into Garurumon shouldn't be difficult, right?

　But it turns out.

　Digimon cannot be generalized from one another.

　Dark thought he was very durable, but he didn't expect to suffer a heavy defeat against Gabumon.

　In the end, although he successfully evolved "Cursed Cage: Gabumon" into "Cursed Cage: Garurumon", the mental energy he had consumed left him feeling extremely tired.

　The bond between him and Gabumon is still too weak.

　Gabumon is not a hot-blooded idiot like Agumon, and his emotions are not so easily aroused.

　It was only at this point that Dark realized the concept of "synchronization rate." "Bond" and "synchronization rate" are positively correlated, but not linearly.

　His bond with Gabumon was lacking, and their minds were not in sync, which made his evolution of Gabumon into Garurumon seem too forced.

　But it's good that it succeeded!

　The lack of bonds and synchronization can be gradually made up for in the future.

　If you successfully evolve Gabumon into Garurumon, it means that Tower has been able to obtain deeper information about Gabumon through this method.

　With that information, the targeted training of "Gabumon" can be put on the agenda immediately.

　Due to the severe depletion of his mental energy, Dark did not continue the experiment.

　But in fact, he was very clear that he was not yet able to evolve a Champion-level Digimon into a Perfect-level one.

　Among the two-star Digimon, only "Momomon" remains. However, his contact with "Momomon" is even less than with "Gabumon," making it highly unlikely that they will form any kind of "bond."

　In contrast, Samsung's "Renamon" might bring him a pleasant surprise. However, evolving "Renamon" into "Nine-Tailed Foxmon" isn't in such a rush.

　After all, "Youkomon" is already a three-star monster with near-perfect stats, so there's no need to reforge it.

　After that, Dak made a list in his notebook of the things that needed to be done first.

　1. Re-creation and secondary synthesis of "Milkyr" 2. Targeted synthesis of "Devimon" 3. Targeted synthesis of "Agumon" 4. Targeted synthesis of "Gabumon"

　That evening, he spent the rest of his time on this part of the research and gained a lot.

　The next day.

　The first class on Tuesday.

　Dak Dimon picked up his math textbook after a long absence and entered the first-grade math classroom.

　The first-grade students didn't get carried away by his absence for a week; on the contrary, they were surprisingly more attentive than before.

　Is it because final exams are coming up?

　Dak was surprised by this, but did not change the pace of his classes.

　During this class, he also began to consciously observe each student, hoping to find some "hidden gems".

　Unfortunately, he hadn't found a new gem even after class. The top students in the first year were so outstanding, much like the situation in the second year, that they overshadowed everyone else.

　Under these circumstances, it seems that only by "accumulating strength and then unleashing it" can a resurgence be possible.

　In the following classes, "History of Magic" and "Beast Studies," Dark studied his own material until all the classes for the day were over. Only then did he rush back to his dormitory to turn his research into experiments.

　—He's started trying to replicate "Big Milk Tank"!

　When he created "Milky Jar", he used the basic crafting method of [Bird Beast - Normal], and the core material he used was milk from "Cowgrass".

　"Cowgrass" itself is not a very valuable material, so the juice (milk) it produces is naturally not very good either.

　If it weren't for being fermented in a "pot" to improve its quality, it wouldn't even be considered suitable as a base material.

　But by using these materials, combined with the [Bliss Fruit (Cow)], they successfully created the (Milky Tank).

　Moreover, Dark used the same core ingredients to create many "ultimate moves: drinking milk"!

　This only shows that the compatibility between "cowgrass" and "big milk tank" is just too high.

　The basic transmutation method used with it as the core may already be very close to the targeted transmutation method of "Milky Rush".

　But on some level, this isn't actually a good thing.

　Because the milk produced by "Cowgrass" is hard to find a substitute for! Not being able to find a higher quality substitute means that the method of creating "Sylveon" cannot be replicated.

　Dark can only proceed step by step, first developing a four-star "Big Milk Tank" before considering anything else.

　From yesterday to today, he prepared two cups of milk from "Cowgrass," which improved in quality after being extracted by "Pot Pot."

　At the same time, he also fed "Cow Grass" to absorb "Paradise Version of Bliss" and harvested juice made from two "Bliss Fruits".

　The experiment began on the spot.

　There were two experiments in total, and each experiment lasted no more than half an hour.

　And both experiments were successful!

　Two consecutive successes are definitely not accidental.

　Before the experiment, Dark added new materials and adjusted the final transmutation formula according to the method of targeted transmutation. He never expected the effect to be so remarkable.

　With the addition of two new four-star "Big Milk Tank" cards, he can immediately begin the second refinement process.

　But he didn't do that.

　Instead, they went to the academy's warehouse first and selected materials directly from there.

　Because he accepted the commission to train first and second-year students, Principal Arte used this as a reason to grant him partial access to the warehouse.

　With this access, he could obtain more materials than he would have as a professor.

　However, there are still limitations in the quality of the materials. The focus is on diversity.

　Basically, as long as the materials aren't of extremely high quality, Dark can get them from the academy's warehouse.

　This saved him a lot of trouble.

　That night, he not only obtained the materials needed for the second "Big Milk Pot" alchemy, but also the materials needed for the first targeted alchemy of "Little Devimon".

　The second alchemy is extremely difficult, and Dark is mentally prepared to fail many times.

　But he can only try twice tonight. After the two failures, he plans to focus his time on the targeted transmutation of "Little Devimon".

　If it weren't for the high success rate of replicating Miltank, he would actually prefer to prioritize the targeted creation of Devimon.

　The answer lies in the bonds we share!

　The remake of Miltank was Dark's attempt at targeted transmutation. The targeted transmutation of Devimon, however, was the very first official experiment!

　"Devimon" is a Devil type.

　In theory, the targeted creation of a Devilmon requires materials from the Demon race as the core. If we narrow the scope further, we would use materials from vampires as the core. Based on this idea, and drawing on the deeper information obtained yesterday, and relying on the knowledge gained from our research on the targeted creation of the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon," Dark wrote the targeted creation formula for "Devimon."

　Now is the time to put what we've learned to the test!

　He listed three different directional transmutation equations.

　The first two are based on vampire fangs, but he only got the powder of vampire fangs from the academy's warehouse.

　The next formula for targeted forging uses the tips of vampire wings as its core.
