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

　Arrogance: 95

　Jealousy: 39

　[Rage: 82]

　Laziness: 69

　Greed: 95

　[Bingeing: 73]

　【Paradise: 80】

　Compared to the beginning of last month, the overall number of "major sins" has decreased significantly at the beginning of this month. In particular, "bliss" has plummeted to 80 points, making it impossible to withdraw or use.

　After some adjustments, "Pride" and "Greed" both remained at the standard level of 95, making them unsuitable for extraction using the "dipping water method".

　Fortunately, the basic "Soul Loss Curse" has finally made a breakthrough. Otherwise, the only option would be to seek to increase the number of "great sins".

　"I wonder if this time, we can lower the safe extraction threshold to 80 points?"

　"If possible, there's no need to take the risk; simply increasing 'bliss' by a point or two will suffice."

　"Let's give it a try anyway."

　“Little devil!”

　Dark called out to Devimon.

　"I'm coming!"

　Little Devimon immediately jumped down from above, stood on the table, and wiggled its little bottom.

　Dark murmured, "This time, we'll test the safety of the 'Soul Loss Curse.'"

　"The Soul Curse?" Little Devimon squinted and thought for a moment, finally recalling the last experiment on the beginner-level Soul Curse.

　Then it flapped its wings on its belly, tilted its head back and said, "Touch my big breasts!"

　Dark couldn't help but laugh, and then immediately used a simple incantation to cast the "Soul Loss Curse".

　About a minute later, he raised his magic pen and pointed it at the little devil's forehead: "Death Spell!"

　A beam of light shot out instantly.

　After being shot, LittleDevimon appeared slightly dazed, but remained standing perfectly fine.

　Dark observed carefully and pondered, "It seems that this basic 'Soul Loss Curse' is indeed much more effective than the beginner-level 'Soul Loss Curse.' Even with Professor Harvey's improvements, it's still difficult to avoid a slight loss of focus, which is not a good sign."

　When using the Magic Brain Dropper to extract "Great Sin," severe loss of consciousness can have very serious consequences.

　The "loss of consciousness" phenomenon caused by this basic "Soul Loss Curse" is still very weak, but what about the intermediate and advanced levels?

　This means that if Professor Harvey's improvements have indeed reached their limit, then intermediate and advanced "Death Curses" may no longer be able to be used to lower the standard for safely absorbing "Great Sins".

　After Dark recorded his discovery, he used the "Happy Card" on Devimon.

　The little devilmon that was hit by the "Happy Card" was clearly more engrossed than when it wasn't affected by the "Soul Curse".

　As for other drawbacks, none of them have been observed.

　After careful consideration, Darke decided to conduct the experiment on himself.

　"For now, let's not use 'Netherworld God Technique' in conjunction with it; let's simply test the effect of this basic 'Soul Loss Curse.'"

　He composed himself slightly and pointed...

　My temples

　He cast a basic version of the "Soul Loss Curse".

　"The Soul-Stealing Curse!"

　In that instant, he could clearly feel a slight jolt in his brain, and he felt disoriented and unable to concentrate.

　His eyes narrowed instantly, and he gritted his teeth, forcibly concentrating his mind. It took him quite a while to finally hold on.

　"Using this 'Soul-Stealing Spell' repeatedly might even train one's mental focus."

　He shook his head slightly, and then, before the effects of the "Soul Loss Curse" had worn off, he picked up the magic brain dropper from the lab table, closed his eyes, and concentrated on sensing it.

　He first chose "Pride," which already had 95 points.

　Once the emotions were stirred up, he could clearly feel wisps of "emotion" drifting outwards.

　However, he did not use the magic dropper to draw it in, but merely relied on his perception, honed over such a long period of time, to sense the "great sin".

　"The overflow is approximately 5 points..."

　"Is it simply a matter of moving the standard line forward to 90?"

　Dark frowned, then immediately adjusted his thoughts, reining in "arrogance" and instead activating 80 points of "ecstasy".

　"Bliss" is arguably the easiest great sin to evoke. But no matter how hard he tried, he could not make "Bliss" overflow.

　Three minutes later, Dak relaxed.

　At this point, he was quite certain that this basic "Soul Loss Curse" could only raise the safe absorption threshold to 90 points, after which it could not be advanced any further.

　"90 points, given the current situation, suggests the potential to overcome 'arrogance' and 'greed'."

　"If I had to choose one, I would naturally choose 'arrogance'."

　……

　In this regard, Dak did not hesitate.

　He rested for half an hour, then used the "Soul Loss Curse" and "Netherworld Art" simultaneously to manipulate his emotions and cause "Pride" to overflow from his brain, successfully extracting a drop of 1.5 points of "Pride".

　In this way, the "great sins" he possesses will have 7.5 points of "pride" and 1 point of "greed".

　"Two experiments: one is the cultivation of the 'Fruit of Pride' and the transmutation of the Dragon Seed; the other is the transmutation of 'Three Months of Bliss.'"

　Let's start with something simple.

　Dak took a deep breath, took out the experimental materials and tools he had prepared in advance, and began the experiment to create "Elysium 3? Months".

　He was prepared for failure from the very beginning of the experiment.

　After all, the so-called seven "dead sins" each have different attributes and characteristics.

　In particular, "pride" and "bliss" represent the sun and moon, light and darkness, which are completely opposite existences.

　Simply mixing them together will most likely result in conflicts.

　As for "greed" and "bliss," they do have a certain degree of compatibility.

　At least from an emotional perspective, there wasn't much conflict.

　Dark had actually wanted to experiment with mixing the "Great Sins" together for a long time. But his need for "Great Sins" was actually very large, and he never had any extra "Great Sins" to waste.

　This time, although it was out of necessity, it was a chance that was finally seized.

　Using 1 point of "Greed" and 30 points of the Moon Goddess version of "Ecstasy" as the main materials for the experiment, we aim to demonstrate some points.

　……

　Once ready, Dark placed a blank magic card in the center of the table and immediately began the process of creating it.

　He was already highly skilled at crafting "Great Sin Cards" and had no need to worry about failure.

　A few moments later, he had prepared the "brain juice" and the "sealing liquid" and evenly applied the "brain juice" to the blank magic card.

　Once the "brain juice" was applied, Dak carefully picked up the magic brain dropper and first extracted "greed".

　The purpose of adding 1 drop of "greed" first is to better observe the reaction between "bliss" and "greed".

　The Moon Goddess version of "Elysium" is, in comparison to Dark's original "Elysium," like it's diluted three times, except for the lack of certain special factors.

　One drop of the Moon Goddess version of "Elysium" is equivalent to one-third of Dark's own "Elysium".

　Using it actually makes observation easier.

　"嘤嘤嘤!"

　Dark applied the magic brain dropper containing 1 point of "greed" to the blank magic card and squeezed the magic brain hard.

　As the demonic brain screamed, a drop of "greed" dripped onto the card, and under the influence of "brain juice," it quickly spread.

　The blank magic card was then stained with a dull blue hue.

　Dark concentrated slightly, drew out a drop of the Moon Goddess version of "Elysium" from the mind bottle, and once again pressed the tip of the magic dropper against the blank magic card, squeezing the magic brain forcefully.

　"Tick!"

　The pink drop of liquid falling from the sky

　The substance quickly dripped onto the card surface, which had already been stained blue by "greed".

　That pale pink color was like an oil layer floating on the surface of water, completely separate from "greed".

　Dark did not make a decision immediately, but continued to observe.

　But after observing for about three minutes, he shook his head.

　His judgment

　Read the full text for free here

　There are slight discrepancies; "greed" and "bliss" are completely incompatible.

　The two "great sins" may not conflict, but they are not integrated either.

　"In that case, should we continue, or cut our losses?"

　Dak frowned slightly.

　"Pure 'greed' and 'bliss' cannot naturally merge, but that doesn't mean they can't merge under external forces. Perhaps the final alchemy can bring about a certain degree of fusion between these two 'great sins.' Just like Tailmon and Black Tailmon are a fusion of 'pride' and 'bliss.'"

　After careful consideration, he chose to continue.

　No investment, no return.

　This is not the time to be stingy with a little bit of material.

　Therefore, he immediately continued to bet on "Paradise".

　Only after all thirty points of the Moon Goddess version of "Elysium" were injected did he apply the "sealing fluid" on top and then begin to inscribe the transmutation arrays one by one.

　In the end... the alchemy array was successfully activated.

　Dark could clearly sense a reaction occurring inside the magic card, but the actual situation remained to be seen.

　He wasn't in a hurry, and only picked up and washed the magic card after it was fully formed.

　The final version of this magic card is pink as always, with only a blue dot in the very center representing "greed".

　However, no other colors were mixed in with these blue dots.

　"On the surface, 'greed' and 'ecstasy' haven't merged yet; they just seem to be simply stacked together... Let's see how it goes!"

　After initial observation, Darke infused magic to obtain information.

　"Let's just stick with the 'Paradise 3-Month' card for now!"

　After careful analysis, he couldn't help but frown, his eyes showing a strange expression.

　This "Elysium 3? Moon" card shows absolutely no trace of "greed" in its description. It's as if that little bit of "greed" is completely enveloped by the full thirty points of the Moon Goddess version of "Elysium." There is neither conflict nor fusion, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the Magic Card itself.

　He thought for a moment and then summoned Devimon again.

　This time, however, Little Devimon couldn't help but show a bitter expression, cautiously probing, "Is it that one?"

　Dark nodded: "That's it."

　"Whoa!"

　With a scream, Little Devimon instinctively turned to run away.

　But suddenly it froze, motionless, and out of the corner of its eye it saw the little dream demon chuckling by the wall, which was actually the use of its ultimate move, "telekinesis".

　Then Dak smoothly activated "Elysium 3? Months", working in perfect harmony.

　Bathed in the radiance of "Elysium 3? Moon", Impmon's form changed dramatically, and in the blink of an eye, it broke free from Misdreavus's psychic powers.

　After successfully evolving into "BlackGatomon", its eyes transformed and it instinctively lunged at Dark.
