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

　suspect--

　In this respect, it proves that directly injecting "pride" can influence its behavior.

　On the other hand, this also means that there was an unexpected problem in the cultivation of the [Fruit of Pride].

　Nobody likes surprises.

　"Let's observe further."

　So he temporarily

　He then abandoned the idea of ​​cultivating the Fruit of Pride.

　After absorbing one point of arrogance, Lion Grass truly calmed down.

　Fearing it might suddenly go berserk, Dark did not untie it but continued to observe it.

　While observing, he also took the opportunity to do some work that didn't require as much concentration.

　For example, grinding materials into powder.

　That evening, Dak spent the entire night grinding the eighteen ingredients into powder, which he then stored in separate containers.

　In eight small bottles.

　Looking at the lion grass now, it is still very quiet, as if it has fallen into a deep sleep.

　However, Lion Grass's eyes were not closed, and it would blink every now and then.

　Unable to understand the logic, Dak simply extracted his daily dose of "major sins" and went to bed.

　Since the "slow and steady" approach is sufficient for now, the "greed" index is insufficient.

　The index for "Paradise" is still above 100, so

　He chose to draw (Paradise) tonight.

　The following Wednesday.

　Upon waking up, Dak immediately went to the iron cage.

　The 1 point of [Arrogance] effect seemed to have disappeared, and Liongrass became ferocious and crazed again, but the binding of its limbs and mouth...

　The stopper inside limited its performance.

　Dark frowned and pondered for a long time, then simply squeezed two more drops of [Arrogance] into its mouth!

　The three [major sins], under normal circumstances, can cause a crest to appear on the top of the cat grass and sprout new shoots.

　This suggests that for a creature like the cat grass, the three "major sins" are likely to be a crucial factor.

　In short, after these two points of arrogance entered her mouth, Lion Grass quieted down again.

　And above its head, the emblem of [Arrogance] gradually appeared.

　If you touch it carefully, you can feel a slight bump in the middle of the emblem.

　"Nothing seems amiss."

　"But there's no rush, let's observe for another day."

　"Let's try making chocolate today!"

　Dak put aside his thoughts for the time being and prepared to make chocolate.

　Before this, he had never imagined that he would one day make chocolate by hand.

　However, the experience of making desserts by hand is actually quite wonderful.

　It's the magical spirits' desire to show off.

　Hope seems a bit strong

　I don't know if it's true that you become like those you associate with.

　They all displayed a tendency to "preach and teach".

　Dak let them do whatever they wanted, and was happy from beginning to end.

　However, the entire cooking process went relatively smoothly.

　The final chocolate has a bittersweet flavor, much like the taste of life.

　Finally, Dak divided the chocolate into fifteen portions: five liqueur-filled chocolates and ten milk chocolates.

　Chocolates, individually packaged in gift boxes

　Installed.

　"Don't worry, I'll give it to you on White Day."

　After waving away the magical spirits, Dark returned to the iron cage.

　It has been almost twelve hours since the lion's mane sprouted its first shoot.

　For the next twelve hours, the lion grass remained as if asleep, its quietness unsettling.

　As a result, Darko no longer dared to easily invest in Pride.

　Although arrogance is a renewable resource, he would still feel uneasy if such a large investment went down the drain.

　The pain was so intense I couldn't breathe.

　"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

　Dak suppressed his impulse.

　He always felt that Liongrass, in its "half-asleep, half-awake" state, was likely in the process of "digestion and absorption."

　At this point, it would be unwise to force more pride into the fruit!

　After calming down, Dak focused his attention and began making an eighteen-sided die.

　The eighteen-faceted crystal he obtained was very well-formed and didn't require much polishing. The difficulty lay in the engraving of the attribute symbols.

　carve.

　However, he first drew symbols on the crystal surface with a pen, patiently carving each mark one by one, resulting in a very refined final product.

　perfect.

　"call"

　After letting out a soft sigh, Dak rinsed the eighteen faceted crystals under the tap, then used fine carving tools to...

　Smooth out the burrs within the engraved marks, then rinse and wipe clean.

　Thus, the crystal-making process itself is complete.

　The next step is to apply a special potion to the inscription, and then fill it with powder of the corresponding attribute.

　Apply it in, wipe off any excess, and let it air dry.

　The whole process

　It seemed simple, but it wasn't until late at night when it was actually finished.

　Dak glanced at the darkness outside the window, wiped the sweat from his brow, and prepared to continue!

　As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot.

　Besides, tomorrow is Sunday, so it's perfectly fine to go to sleep in the early hours of the morning.

　However, before officially starting the refining process, he went into the bathroom to shower, allowing his mind and body to be cleansed by the hot water.

　Brush off to gradually relax and return to a good state.

　After bathing, a glass of special apple juice will instantly dispel any drowsiness caused by the bath, leaving you feeling refreshed and energetic.

　People become more energetic.

　At this point, it was already past midnight.

　Some of the magical elves have already obediently climbed into their respective little beds.

　The lion-like creature remained in a state of "half-asleep, half-awake".

　Dak picked up the eighteen-faceted crystal on the table and examined it carefully.

　This jet-black, translucent crystal has a total of eighteen facets, each of which is engraved with a different colored attribute symbol.

　As for the remaining light and dark attributes...

　According to Dark's own understanding, the crystal itself is a dark attribute, possessing a demonic quality inherited from the Mystic Eye.

　"Next, we will begin the refining process."

　"No, wait, how about we use light-attribute powder again to coat the surface of the black crystal with another layer of white?"

　"Although the eighteen-sided drinking game dice are not white, the first impression of dice is still that they are white."

　"Eighteen plus two, twenty attributes, perfect in every way."

　"Just do it!"

　Sometimes inspiration strikes suddenly – in an instant.

　Dak also took action in this regard.

　About half an hour later, he carefully applied pure white, luminous light-attribute powder to the surface of the crystal.

　Picking it up again at this point, I finally had the impression of a "dice".

　He couldn't help but smile.

　This should be his most dedicated work since he first encountered "The Forging of the Three Armed Forces".

　"Now, let's begin the forging process!"

　Dark was already very familiar with the steps involved in forging the Three-in-One Armor.

　First, prepare the special magic potion [Manjusaka] that has the "transformation" effect.

　Take another blank magic card, spread the [Manjusaka] evenly, add some other auxiliary materials, and make a base.

　Half an hour later, the [Three-in-One Armament Formation Array] began to be inscribed.

　Ten minutes later, the [Mind Forging] process will begin.

　This means infusing "mental power" into the [Three-in-One Armament Forging Array], transforming it into a [Mental Furnace].

　To this end, Dark has prepared 1 point of Pride, 1 point of Ecstasy, and 1 point of Greed.

　Pride is a light attribute.

　【Paradise】is of the Dark attribute.

　Greed is the fusion agent.

　If these three [great sins] can be fused together to forge a [mind furnace], then this weapon forging will be considered a success.

　Most of the work has been accomplished.

　Therefore, he was very careful.

　As the three drops of [Great Sin] were dripped into the glowing sphere of the [Three-in-One Armament Transformation Array], the sphere first turned white.

　Then it turned black, and finally, under the melting of [greed], it became a blend of black and white.

　The light of black and white gradually illuminated the bedroom.

　"The final step."

　Dark focused intently, picked up the nearly empty bottle of elven wine, tilted his head back, and drank the last sip he had deliberately saved.

　As the elven wine flowed down my throat, magic surged forth like a spring.

　He immediately placed the completed eighteen-sided crystal into the [Mind Furnace], and then used the magic pen to...

　At the top of the furnace, magic was continuously poured in.

　As the magic power rapidly drained away, the eighteen crystals within the [Mind Furnace] were melted and absorbed as they spun.

　As it completely disappeared, Dark pressed the magic pen down, and the spherical [Mind Furnace] rapidly shrank into...

　A very thick layer of light covered the card surface.
