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

　For him, being able to have a duel with Dark at the end of his first year would be an ideal ending.

　If we could bite off even a single scale or claw of Dark during this duel, that would be even better.

　“Hey, Witt, what’s wrong?” Robert suddenly asked.

　Witt quickly composed himself and said, "I'm fired up."

　Robert quickly touched his forehead, then asked in confusion, "Isn't it hot? Should I ask the professor to give you a sick leave so you can leave early? Anyway, you don't stand a chance against Dark."

　Witt: “…”

　After a long pause, Witt said, "Can we talk about something else?"

　"Alright then," Robert shrugged and said, "Good luck, just make it through one round and you win."

　Witt said silently, "Robert, there's something I've never told you."

　Robert asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

　Witt said, "You're annoying."

　Robert slapped him hard on the shoulder: "Ha, you finally said it!"

　"Hiss!" Witt cried out through gritted teeth, "Stop messing around."

　Robert slapped him on the backside and sent him packing: "Go quickly, come back soon, don't waste everyone's time."

　Witt rubbed his shoulder, grimacing.

　But he still walked toward the players' platform in court number 1.

　At this point, Darko had already stepped onto the red player's platform.

　He placed his hand on the card table, his gaze passing over the transparent barrier to see Witt stepping onto the stage. His eyes were calm, yet they seemed to transcend time.

　Nine months have passed in the blink of an eye since the start of the school year.

　He still vividly remembers the terror he felt when he regained his past life's memories during the Sorting Ceremony, and how he searched for someone who might be the original game's protagonist after stepping down from the stage. He paid particular attention to this original game protagonist who was comparable to Harry Potter.

　But now he realizes that he hasn't had any contact with Witt for two months.

　Unbeknownst to them, the two sides had already walked on two parallel lines that never intersected.

　Once he became convinced that he would be able to analyze and even control the great sins in the future, there was no need for him to have any interaction with this future hero.

　Over the past year, he has indeed followed the approach he had at the beginning of the school year, and he just needs to continue doing so.

　As his thinking became clearer, Dak's mindset became more and more peaceful.

　He waited until Witt stepped onto the player's platform before activating the card table. Then he placed the deck into the card slots on the table, infused it with magic, and automatically shuffled the cards.

　Meanwhile, Witt, who was on the blue team's table, quickly put his deck into the card slots on the table and activated the shuffle.

　“Dark”.

　"Ok?"

　Witt's sudden voice made Dark look up slightly.

　Witt then said, "I've never had a chance to formally thank you, but I'm truly grateful."

　Dark raised an eyebrow and said, "That's not necessary."

　If you are truly sincere, please find an opportunity to formally express your gratitude.

　Witt replied, "I know that even if I go all out now, I'm no match for you, but I won't admit defeat."

　Dark nodded: "It's okay, as long as you can smile."

　Witt: "Huh?"

　Dark: "I hope this duel will bring smiles to both of us."

　"Beep——"

　"Preparation Phase" [30 seconds]

　The moment the exchange session ends, such as the thirty-second countdown before the preparation phase begins.

　Without the slightest hesitation, Dak reached out and touched the cards.

　Witt hesitated for a moment before making his move.

　This was the first official duel between the two since the start of the semester. Although it was just a rookie tournament, it was significant for Witt, as it might allow him to understand just how big the gap was between him and his goal, and to calculate how hard he needed to work to catch up.

　As for its significance to Dark Knight, it does have some, but not much.

　After acquiring the five magic cards, he immediately unfolded them, using all his strength even when hunting a rabbit.

　The Primordial Dragon Egg

　【Single Sword Sheath (Weapon Form)】

　Greed 3

　【Teapot】

　[Big Milk Tank]

　The very first card I drew was "The Primordial Dragon Egg"!

　Starting with this three-star Magical Spirit card, Dark can hatch a six-star Magical Spirit at an extremely fast pace.

　The premise is 1500

　The defenses at a point cannot be broken instantly.

　In fact, the possibility is extremely small.

　The second card in the starting hand, [Single Sword Sheath (Weapon Form)], can be transformed to summon a four-star magical spirit at a faster speed.

　If you use "Greed 3" again, it will also be a six-star Magic Spirit!

　The only problem is that the "Dual Scabbards" have inferior stats compared to the "Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon," but their special moves are stronger.

　"Both sides have their strengths and weaknesses."

　"But newcomers are given priority."

　"I choose you, Dragon Egg!"

　……

Chapter 445 You have one turn to use your imagination (2.5k)

　"In the name of Dark Demon, a magical summoning—the primordial dragon egg!"

　当达克开始召唤时，就连负责另外三个场地的教授们也都下意识的将视线转了过来。104;116;116;112;58;47;47;119;119;119;46;50;99;121;120;115;119;46;99;111;109;47;

　Of course, they only intended to glance at it before turning back.

　But once he glanced at it, he couldn't move anymore.

　A giant dragon egg materialized from the summoning light and stood silently in front of the red team's magic orb.

　It has no hands or feet and is clearly unable to move; it belongs to a special type of magical spirit.

　Although these egg-shaped magical spirits are not common, they are not actually rare; it's just that few people use them.

　However, the dragon egg summoned by Dark exuded a faint primal aura, a sense of time that ordinary people could not perceive at all, causing the three professors to freeze in surprise.

　Unlike the professors' keen senses, Witt Gold instinctively felt a sense of crisis when he saw Dark summon an egg.

　He tried his best to speed up the summoning process, compressing it to nearly five seconds!

　Among the first-year students, apart from Dark, the best students could only compress the casting time of a normal summoning spell to this extent.

　However, this actually meets the standard for the second-year final exam, which is an excellent result.

　Therefore, before the dragon egg had even hatched, Witt's first magical sprite had already appeared in the blue team's summoning area.

　But it's also a completely new and unexpected magical spirit!

　The students watching from the sidelines suddenly realized that both duelists were summoning magical spirits that they had never shown before!

　This made them instinctively feel that both sides had already revealed their trump cards.

　And that was indeed the case for Witt.

　The magical spirit he summoned at the beginning was created by refining his own blood under Tom Nixon's guidance, using it as a special auxiliary ingredient, and then using another material as the core.

　The techniques used in the refining process are also quite mysterious, and are special refining methods that can only be used by mages with special talents.

　Using this method, he created a total of three magical spirits, each of which was extremely powerful.

　For example, the magical spirit right now is one of the best among the three-star spirits, and it has almost replaced the "Giant" in his heart.

　That was a terrifying giant worm as thick as a bucket!

　Card Name: Blood Giant Worm

　[Type: Spirit Card]

　【grade:】

　[Species: Insect]

　[Attribute: Insect]

　【Magic Power: 1450】

　[Attack: 1450]

　[Defense: 1450]

　Ultimate Skills: Bloodlust, Blood-Forged Insect Armor, Blood Source Explosion

　With its three ultimate skills, this "Blood Giant Worm" possesses the qualities of three orange cards.

　Its stats are typical of a "barrel waist," although it has 50 fewer attack points than the "Giant."

　However, in the actual offense and defense of the Samsung Magical Spirit, these 50 attack points are really nothing.

　In addition, the "Blood Giant Worm" is superior to the "Giant" in every aspect.

　In particular, the three ultimate skills, whether it is "Bloodlust" which can ensure the endurance, "Blood Refining Insect Armor" which can improve attack and defense, or "Blood Source Detonation" which has amazing self-destruct damage and can be used as a sacrifice after the explosion, are all extremely practical.

　Witt God had witnessed the duel between Dark and Justin Wayne and knew that Dark could indirectly summon a five-star magical spirit in just nine seconds.

　Although his "Blood Giant Worm" is no match for a five-star magical spirit, he can severely injure it by self-destructing. Then, he can use the "Blood Worm" that he transformed into after the self-destruction as a sacrifice to specially summon another five-star magical spirit, "Blood Demon," using a normal summoning spell!

　The "Blood Demon," which can be summoned normally as long as a "specific environment" is present, is the strongest trump card that Witt crafted.

　If even the "Blood Demon" couldn't gain a chance of victory, then so be it—at least they've put up a fight.

　After all, Witt Gold didn't really think he could win. Just as Robert said, he thought that lasting a few more rounds would be a win, since he was at least a bit stronger than Justin Wayne.

　However, even this bottom line, which he sees as a point of no return, requires the strength to hold firm.

　Two months is enough for him to take a big step forward, and Darko's steps will only be even bigger!

　……

　Although the "hatching" process took some time, by the time Witt's "blood giant worm" crawled over with its enormous body, the "primordial dragon egg" had already cracked open with countless fissures.

　"Roar--"

　Under everyone's watchful eyes, although it looked a little immature, there was no doubt that the roar of the dragon's might burst out from the eggshell.

　The silver-white baby dragon with blue eyes suddenly broke through the eggshell and hatched!

　……

　Meanwhile, Dark, whose summoning spell was off cooldown, casually began summoning "Potpot".

　This

　The moment the summoning light of "Potpot" fell was the moment "Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon" took to the sky.

　The nearly three-meter-tall young dragon, carrying its still immature dragon might, pounced on the blue team's half of the map like the wind!

　The space was too narrow for dragons to cross in the blink of an eye.
