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

　Jeffrey exclaimed, "Oh, I thought you went all out!"

　Mike Irwin said helplessly, "It was an unexpected outcome despite our all-out effort."

　Jeffrey sneered and stopped looking at him.

　……

　In the audience area.

　After being bored for a long time, Arvit finally perked up again.

　She came here for two reasons: one, to see what the "model Easter egg" was, and two, to try her luck in the lottery.

　She was lucky, and sure enough, she saw her baby again.

　However, the interval between the matches was too long; more than two and a half hours had passed since Dark's last match.

　After not seeing Dak for two and a half hours, her mood gradually declined.

　"Finally, I can see him again!"

　After a moment of excitement, Alvitt suddenly became dejected.

　"But after this competition ends, who knows when the next one will be? And summer vacation isn't here yet!"

　Ever since her son went to study at St. Marian, the Valkyrie of the kingdom has become somewhat anxious and insecure.

　……

　The City of Freedom.

　Lord Montilfari and Aurora also gradually focused their attention on Dark Dimon's reappearance on the field.

　Although their inner thoughts may differ.

　But both mother and daughter wanted to know more about him.

　……

　As for Diana and Rose of the ring belt, there is some concern.

　Stuart Fountain shone brightly in both the open qualifiers and the first round of the main event.

　As first-year students, the two could sense the seemingly insurmountable gap between them simply by watching from the sidelines.

　It's hard to imagine how one could possibly defeat such a powerful senior.

　"Don't worry, didn't Dark already defeat a third-year student? That guy with the big breasts and stuff?" Diana comforted Rose when she saw that she looked a little nervous.

　"It's Irving!" Rose exclaimed, looking up at the sky. "I have a feeling that Irving wasn't using his full strength. Just like when we met on Valentine's Day, it seemed like he was deliberately holding back?"

　Diana blinked, puzzled. "Is that so? But I thought he was quite serious."

　After listening to the two finish speaking, Pandora interjected, "Mike Owen, his true strength is not as simple as it seems."

　Rose immediately said, "See, senior sister definitely knows more than we do. Senior Owen might have other motives. But this Senior Stuart Fern has a rather annoying vibe."

　Poor Mike Irving, he was clearly giving it his all, but hardly anyone believed him.

　Diana put a piece of milk in her mouth.

　Sugar smacked her lips and said, "Whatever you say goes. Anyway, I hope Dark can keep winning."

　Rose said, "I hope so too."

　Pandora: "Then cheer him on."

　Rose became worried again: "It's a pity I forgot to bring the sign."

　……

　A young girl's sorrows are like clouds in the sky, gathering and dispersing as they please.

　Darko Dimon had no idea that his every move was drawing the attention of so many people.

　After learning the schedule, he shook hands with Stuart Fowne on stage, performing all the pre-match etiquette.

　Then both sides came down from the stage and went to their respective contestant stands.

　Red: Stuart Fountain

　Blue Team: Darko Dimon

　It's still the blue team's platform.

　When Dark climbed the steps again, he waved in Arvit's direction, hoping to get a response once more.

　He found himself feeling even more attached to "family" after regaining his memories of his past life.

　But as he observed Arvit's reaction, a thought struck him: a group of very conspicuous people walked in from the back of the audience.

　"Prince Charles? What brings him here?"

　……

　The eldest prince, who rushed over after finishing his presentation, had a gloomy face.

　He walked heavily into the audience seats.

　Although the front seats were all occupied, he was, after all, one of the heirs of the country and had plenty of ways to get people to give up their seats.

　Therefore, after entering the branch, he went straight to the first row, which was only a few seats away from Arvit.

　Their eyes met briefly, but only for a moment.

　Arvit lowered her raised hand, her expression gradually becoming serious.

　"You heard the news so quickly?"

　"Alvitt said in a low voice."

　Claire also saw the eldest prince and the others, and said, "Now that he has appeared, Elizabeth should be here soon too."

　Arvit frowned. "This is not a good sign."

　Claire comforted her, "It's not necessarily a bad thing."

　Arvit shook her head: "Some things, once they stick, you can't get rid of them." (Full text available for free online reading.)

　"You'll probably have to work hard from now on."

　Claire smiled slightly: "Why are you being so polite with me?"

　Anna and Angie, standing nearby, perfectly played the roles of "naive and ignorant little princesses," clinging to her and asking, "Is my older sister coming too?"

　Just as they finished playing, Angie suddenly looked up and exclaimed, "Tsk! They actually came!"

　Anna lowered her head and whispered, "I suddenly have a bad feeling."

　Anqi's expression also changed slightly. She looked around and hesitated before saying, "It can't be that bad, can it?"

　Not long after, Princess Elizabeth, dressed in casual clothes, arrived at the front row and squeezed Anna and Angie into one seat.

　Princess Elizabeth, on the other hand, took the place between Alvitt and Claire!

　The twin princesses looked mournful.

　……

　"What are you looking at?"

　On the contestant's platform, Dark suddenly heard Stuart Fowle's voice coming from the other side.

　He turned around, infused the card table with magic, and activated it.

　Once the loudspeaker was fully activated, he began to speak: "My eyes are fixed on the future."

　“Huh?” Stuart Fern was completely taken aback by Dark’s response.

　After a long pause, he hesitated before asking, "A prophet?"

　Dark blinked and couldn't help but laugh, "Don't you think that's a very profound way to talk?"

　"Gan!"

　Stuart Fern realized he'd been tricked, but his expression remained grim.

　Yu: "Words won't help you win. First grade is still just first grade. Unlike Mike Irving, I won't go easy on you just because you're younger. I'm going to show you the real difference between first grade and third grade."

　Dark nodded and said earnestly, "I'm looking forward to it."

　The duel with my senior, Ou Wenxue, was indeed not very satisfying.

　Having watched so many duels between upperclassmen from the sidelines, he also wanted to have a fierce battle that lasted more than eighteen rounds.

　I wonder if that senior, Stuart Fowne, on the other side, can handle it?

　……

　"Both players, please proceed to the preparation phase immediately!"

　The referee suddenly blew his whistle.

　Dark then took the deck out of the card pack and neatly placed it into the card slot on the card table.

　The card table was alerted and immediately began shuffling the cards automatically.

　Meanwhile, Stuart Fern solemnly placed his deck into the card slot.

　The scene of both players' decks being "shuffled" was projected into the air by a magical projection.

　At this moment, the eldest prince and princess, who had just sat down, both turned their gazes out.

　The exchange between the two sides, conducted through loudspeakers, was heard throughout the venue.

　The eldest prince and princess were both very sensitive to the remark that Dark made when he was being pretentious.

　The eldest princess even hesitated and asked, "Your Grace, does Dark not only possess the qualities of a hero, but also the talent of a prophet?"

　Alvit blinked, but Claire couldn't help rolling her eyes and said speechlessly, "Where did you hear that he has the potential to be a hero?"

　Eliza was stunned for a moment, then shut her mouth and pondered.

　But after a moment's thought, she said, "He can summon the Holy Sword."

　Only a hero can summon the holy sword!

　Eliza felt that the answer she had derived from the intelligence she had obtained was correct.

　Arvit and Claire exchanged a glance.

　The two quickly realized that since both sides clearly knew that the two magical spirits of Dark possessed the "heroic qualities," they subconsciously ignored this basic logic.

　It's important to know that even Alvitt, while able to use parts of the Holy Sword, cannot "summon the Holy Sword".

　She used the "Holy Sword Spell"—also known as the "Phantom Weapon Spell"—to summon a "gun"!

　Dark summons the "Holy Sword" using magic cards.

　Such actions can indeed easily lead to misunderstandings.

　If misinformation spreads, it could lead to some unnecessary problems.

　After thinking it through, Alvit said softly, "Eliza, even your eyes can deceive you, let alone information passed on by others. You must learn to rely on your own thinking to analyze the truth. Now, watch this duel carefully."

　Eliza could only bite her lip and say, "Good mouth."

　……

　"Beep——"

　"Preparation Phase" [30 seconds]

　【Life: 8000】

　……

　The moment the whistle blew, a 30-second countdown for the preparation phase was projected onto the screen.

　The audience, who were excitedly discussing the outcome of the match, fell silent instantly at the sound of the whistle.

　The two duelists on the contestant platform were already completely focused.
