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

　"Of course, when you get back, you can choose to tell either Alvette or Claire; they are both trustworthy."

　Professor Sylph laughed, a rare occurrence, definitively sealing the outcome of the matter.

　Humans are inherently biased; it's impossible to expect everyone to be absolutely impartial.

　Professor Sylph is like that.

　The same applies to Dac.

　He smiled and said, "Let's talk about it after the holiday."

　……

　With only two months until the long holiday, Dak still has a lot to do.

　He originally wanted to finish creating the "zoo" before the holiday, but now it seems a bit difficult.

　Furthermore, research on the "Love Magic Circle" has made no progress—no, it hasn't even begun.

　However, I learned about "Blood Sacrifice" by chance.

　In addition, he also needs to learn the improved "Death Spell" from Professor Harvey, at least to the basic level.

　He originally thought he could use the "Holy Grail" to make the leap from beginner to intermediate level, but now it seems there is an opportunity beyond that.

　The study of magic is extremely difficult, especially high-difficulty spells like the "Death Spell".

　If I could learn a modified version of the basic "Soul Loss Curse" from Professor Harvey, and have the opportunity to use the "Holy Grail" to experiment with wishes at the end of the semester, then I could use that opportunity to further improve my "Netherworld Arts".

　However, he was only a first-year student and had virtually no power to influence the ownership of the "Holy Grail." He could only hope that the upperclassmen from the Noble Academy would put in a strong effort to win the Academy Cup.

　Fortunately, the Noble Academy has always been very competitive in the Academy Cup.

　Darko still has a chance to win without lifting a finger.

　In comparison, learning the "Transfiguration Charm" can be postponed.

　"Right now, mastering the basic 'Soul Loss Curse' as quickly as possible is the most important thing; ideally, we should learn it before May."

　"My foundation in the Soul Loss Spell is solid enough that mastering the basic version shouldn't be too difficult. But the intermediate and advanced levels will require long-term planning."

　"Of course, you can read the full text for free here."

　All of this depends on Professor Harvey being able to complete the improvement of the "Death Curse" as soon as possible.

　"In addition, we can begin preparations for exploring the secret passage."

　"The idea of ​​living metal can now be explored!"

　Back in his dorm, Dak took out the last three face cards from his card holder and chose one decorated with white mandalas.

　This pure white mandala flower card, which he initially obtained from a crack in the door, carries additional symbolic meaning.

　"Those who see this flower will have evil removed. I hope it will bring me good luck."

　……

　The following Wednesday, after lunch, Dak went to Professor Cazell's office.

　Professor Cazell was still busy and seemed to have missed lunch.

　Looking at the thick stack of homework on his desk, Dak suddenly felt a little embarrassed to disturb him.

　But Professor Kazel looked up and smiled, "What, are you ready to learn the 'Transfiguration Charm'?"

　Darke then said, "No, actually I wanted to ask the professor for a favor."

　He then took out the white mandala flower card and waved it at Professor Kazel: "It's like this, I would like to ask the professor to make another flower card just like the last one."

　Professor Cazell's mind raced, and he asked, "The one with the Phalaenopsis orchid?"

　Dak nodded and said, "Yes."

　But upon hearing this, Professor Cazell put down his pen and said solemnly, "You wouldn't be thinking of..."

　Dark didn't hide anything: "The Temple of the Moon, I want to find the Temple of the Moon again in the secret passage."

　Professor Kazel frowned and said, "That's not a good thing. Besides, the last Temple of the Moon has collapsed and disappeared. To recreate the Temple of the Moon, you need more than just luck."

　Dark shook his head and said, "I think the Temple of the Moon, no, at least one statue of the Goddess of the Moon, should still exist in some corner of the secret passage."

　Professor Cazell asked curiously, "How did you confirm that?"

　Darke smiled and said, "That's a secret, Professor."

　Professor Cazell stared at him for a long time, then pondered for a while before saying, "In principle, I encourage you to explore, since that's the purpose of issuing access cards. But the new idol might be even more dangerous."

　Dark smiled and said, "But wealth often lies in danger."

　“Alright,” Professor Cazell said with a helpless smile. “Since you’re already prepared, I can help. But if you encounter any danger, remember to use the access card’s communication function.”

　Dark: "Of course."

　The modification of the flower cards is not complicated.

　Professor Kazel took half an hour and quickly transformed the flower card into a magical artifact capable of tracking the aura of the moon goddess.

　But when Dak reached for it with a look of delight, he waved the flower card around and said, "100 credits."

　Dak was taken aback for a moment, but then smiled and paid the production fee of 100 credits.

　Professor Kazel's modified Hanafuda cards are not magic cards, but magical items created using alchemy.

　After receiving the flower card, Dark infused it with a trace of magic. The white mandalas on the card slowly flew out and lined up in an orderly fashion in the air, like a string of pure white wind chimes, spinning and making a silvery sound.

　Pollen-like fluorescence scatters from the calyx of the white datura, drifting by in a row and forming a white veil.

　Although it doesn't have the lifelike quality of the butterflies released by the Phalaenopsis Orchid Vase, this white datura is still beautiful.

　Dark waved his hand gently, and when the row of mandalas slowly flew back, he put them away and said, "Thank you, Professor."

　Professor Cazell looked helpless: "Remember to be cautious."

　Dark laughed and said, "I don't usually take risks."

　……

　Now that he had the cards, Darke stopped bothering Professor Cazell. He quickly left the office, made a trip to his dormitory, and then went to the library.

　Next, he plans to wait until Friday night to collect 10 points of "Greed" before crafting "Greed 3" and then take action.

　But before that... of course, you have to finish your homework!

　When he arrived at the library, Pandora was working at the counter.

　After not seeing her for a few days, Pandora is as youthful and beautiful as ever.

　"Register." She pushed the registration form in front of Dak and said softly, "Why haven't I seen you these past two days?"

　While registering, Dak said, "I'm a bit busy."

　Pandora frowned and complained, "I thought you had forgotten me."

　Dark paused, looked up and said, "No way, senior, I've only been away from the library for two days."

　Pandora still looked resentful: "Have you forgotten what you promised me?"

　Seeing that the students around him were giving him strange looks, Dark suddenly realized, "How could I forget my senior's invitation, the time and place?"

　Pandora finally stopped pretending. She chuckled and said, "Next Wednesday afternoon, same place."

　“The usual place then.” Dark nodded, quickly completed the registration, handed the form to the next person, and then strode into the library.

　Inside.

　After that night, his "bliss" dropped by 10 points, leaving him with only 92 points, which is a very rare safe range.

　He had originally planned to keep this up until the long holiday, but now it seems a bit difficult.

　……

　The next two days were unusually peaceful.

　Dak checked the newspaper every morning, but for the past few days there had been absolutely no news from the Holy Church. Even the usual reports, such as a priest helping an old woman, were nowhere to be found.

　milk

　News about crossing the street, or a pastor providing free medical treatment to the elderly in rural areas, all suddenly disappeared.

　This eerie calm only heightened the sense of urgency.

　It wasn't until Friday morning that the Great Sage's Daily suddenly had a news item about the Holy Church—but that still had nothing to do with the Demon King.

　After staring at the newspaper for a while, Dak finally found this news item in the corner: "Maria Euphemia, a top student at the Holy Mystic Academy, returned a lost wallet after spending three whole days finding its owner and returning the wallet containing valuables to Viscount Gaby Eugene... What the heck?"

　Dak paused for a moment, then put the newspaper away.

　There are two classes on Friday morning: Duel and Warcraft.

　The dueling class still focuses on analyzing classic cases of dueling festivals, while Warcraft studies unusually teaches purely theoretical knowledge.

　Professor Nini somehow found a book as thick as a brick and began to read its contents aloud in a halting manner.

　She was clearly not very good at this teaching method. But if she wanted to become a formal professor of Warcraft studies, this was an essential path.

　While rote learning is often criticized, if someone can't even do that, they certainly aren't a good teacher.

　Professor Nini is also working hard for her dream.

　……

　On Friday afternoon, as soon as the gates to Travellers Street opened, Dak immediately joined the crowd and entered Travellers Street.

　He needs to buy a lot of things. In addition to the necessary preparations for entering the secret passage, he also needs to buy some furniture and gadgets for eight- or nine-year-old children.

　In addition, he also needs to buy a small bed.

　Although most vampire heiresses don't need it, what children care about most is what others have that they don't. Since Dark has the means, he certainly won't mistreat any of the magical elves.

　After buying everything I needed, it was already 6 p.m.

　Dark bought a bunch of food and brought it back to the dormitory to share dinner with the magical elves. Then he waited until 8 p.m. before taking out the magic brain dropper and starting the sixth extraction of the month!

　From the evening of April 1st until now, April 6th, he has not forgotten to extract a drop of "greed" every night.

　Adding tonight's drop, that makes a total of six drops, which is 9 o'clock "greed".

　Adding the 2 points of "greed" saved up from last month, that makes a total of 11 points.

　With 11 points of "Greed," you can theoretically craft a "Greed 3" card, which should be more than enough.

　After successfully extracting the "greed" of the night, Dark resisted the urge to immediately begin the alchemy process, allowing his brain to rest for half an hour before preparing for the decisive experiment.

　He was really looking forward to the changes that "Greed 3" could bring!

　……

Chapter 424 Darkdemon's Endless Greed (51/233)

　"Meow? (Is it finally coming, meow?)"

　As Dak began preparing for his experiment, Meow Meow, who was squatting on the small table carving little figures, suddenly had her eyes light up and started meowing.

　Of all the magical spirits present, none was more eager for "Greed 3" than it.

　After all, it is the embodiment of "greed" and will surely be able to achieve further evolution through "Greed 3".

　"Meow! (After evolving...)"

　Meow quickly glanced at the few second-tier magical spirits, and inwardly cried out, "Is the day of my turn to turn the tables finally coming?"

　In contrast, the little devilmon hanging upside down on the bird stand appeared remarkably calm.

　"Greed 3" cannot bring about a qualitative change; "Pride 3" is enough for it.

　On the other side, Gatomon was still urging the vampire heiress to learn phonetics. But the monosword sheath floating beside it started dancing in a circle.

　After all, the single sword sheath can be considered the embodiment of "greed".

　However, its creation only grants 3 points of "greed," unlike the Meow Meow created using the "Fruit of Greed."

　Greed 3 might not necessarily allow it to evolve further.
