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

　He still hadn't made a decision by the time dinner started.

　It wasn't until eight or nine o'clock in the evening that he finally managed to create a class schedule.

　The course schedule is largely similar to that of St. Mary's College.

　The only difference is that each class has been shortened from 90 minutes to 60 minutes.

　Considering that tutors need to commute to work.

　Dak postponed the class, which was scheduled to start at 3:30 a.m., to 8:30 a.m.

　A class is from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.

　Another class is from 10:00 to 11:00.

　There are only two fixed class periods each day, which are used to teach literacy and arithmetic respectively.

　Outside of these two classes, the time is left to the tutors to arrange.

　From 2 PM to 3 PM, and then from 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM.

　The two afternoon classes can be changed to teaching literacy and arithmetic, or to teaching music, chess, calligraphy, painting, or the basics of magic and sorcery.

　Of course, there are also combat skills.

　In short, Dak filled this schedule to the brim.

　They don't even spare weekends!

　……

　the next day.

　Once all four tutors had arrived, Dak handed them the schedule he had prepared.

　Apart from Ms. Cook raising questions, the other three tutors were all fine.

　Dak couldn't help but ask, "Ms. Cook, do you think there's anything that can be improved in this timetable?"

　Ms. Cook replied without hesitation, “The interval at noon is too long. I’ve heard that your magical elves don’t actually need a nap, so how about we move the first afternoon class to 1 p.m.? One class from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m., one from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., and another from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.? In addition, we can also schedule two classes in the evening. What do you think?”

　Dark: "..."

Chapter 474 Darkdemon's Early Retirement (4k)

　达克最终还是没有按照库克女士的意见修改课表。104;116;116;112;58;47;47;119;119;119;46;50;99;121;120;115;119;46;99;111;109;47;

　After careful discussion, he constructed a system based on the four tutors' strengths, with Ms. Cook as the main tutor and the other three tutors as assistants.

　After that, the magical spirits were divided into four groups, each led by one of the four tutors.

　Among them, the vampire heiress and the Phoenix Girl were designated as key targets for care, and were each taken care of by Ms. Cook alone.

　Camilla is in charge of the Fighting-type Magical Spirits, namely Hawthorn and Leomon.

　Trash Slime is the only Grass-type, and Ms. Plant is in charge of it.

　With this allocation, the four groups are:

　[Cook's Group]: Vampire Heiress, Phoenix Girl, Poppy Sea Lion, Misdreavus

　[Plant Group]: Trash Slime, Ditto, Shuckle, Big Milk

　Can

　[Series Cyrus]: Spellbook, Eevee, Sylveon, Devimon, Blue-Eyes Drake

　【Camilla Team】: Hawkman, Leomon, Scabbard, Gatomon, Meowth...

　After all the arrangements for the subjects were settled, the four tutors took their leave.

　It was almost lunchtime.

　Dark gathered the magical sprites and had them copy down the class schedule.

　Although most of the magical elves frowned while copying the class schedule, they did not protest.

　Dak pretended not to see it.

　Four hours of class time a day isn't actually that much; there's still plenty of time... well, to do homework.

　……

　At dinner time.

　Arvit asked Dak about the tutoring arrangements, and Dak explained the details one by one.

　The advantage of having four tutors is that a certain degree of shift system can be implemented, and one-on-one teaching can be provided, allowing students to master basic knowledge more quickly and effectively.

　Arvit was fairly satisfied with his arrangement and said, "Today is Saturday, tomorrow is Sunday. Are you planning to start teaching on Monday?"

　Dark nodded and said, "Yes."

　After thinking for a moment, Arvitt said, "My suggestion is to increase the number of weekends; after all, too much of a good thing can be bad. Besides, your classes will start next Monday. You might need to use them every weekend after that."

　Dark frowned slightly: "What do I need to do?"

　Arvit said solemnly, "Become strong!"

　……

　Before this year, Yarvit had never made any demands on Dark. Even when Dark gave up sword training because he couldn't endure the hardship, she let it go.

　She doesn't need her baby to become outstanding; she only hopes he can live a carefree life.

　But the appearance of Leomon and Gatomon, especially Gatomon, made her wary!

　If Dark were to embark on the path of the "hero" because of her magical spirit—a path seemingly cursed by fate—even she could not guarantee to protect her at all times!

　As early as the Easter Duel Festival, Alvitt had already begun making preparations in various aspects.

　However, she can eliminate external influences for Dak.

　Internal problems, however, can only be handled by Dak himself.

　In her mind, the only way to become stronger is to become stronger than the hero Bright who died, stronger than herself, the Valkyrie, and even stronger than the "Saint" who passed down the bloodline of "Hero"!

　Only in this way can we break free from all fate and sleep peacefully without worry.

　She couldn't imagine what she would be like if she lost Dark one day.

　Fortunately, the rapid development of magical technology has already shown a path to "infinite possibilities".

　This era is no longer one where humanity is at the mercy of others.

　Even if the gods were to return, they would no longer be able to regard humans as cattle or sheep.

　……

　In order not to lose her, Arvit was mentally prepared to harden her heart and do it even if Dark refused again.

　But to her relief, Dak had indeed become more sensible.

　……

　After dinner, the mother and son took a walk hand in hand in the backyard and chatted for a while by the Seed of Diesel.

　They sat on the lawn, gazing up at the twinkling stars in the night sky, listening to the playful sounds of the water creatures not far away, and their mood gradually calmed down.

　The atmosphere remained very comfortable until Alvitt chuckled and asked Darker what his feelings were for Diana and Rose.

　The two returned home after their walk.

　After Dark extracted today's "great sins," he had Ollie bring some tea and snacks. Then he sat in a circle with the magical elves and chatted simply.

　Since returning home, Dark has summoned the spirit of the moon goddess for the first time.

　Without being transformed into "armor," the Moon Goddess's Soul is like a mechanical girl. Apart from her body being made of metal, she is no different from an ordinary human.

　Furthermore, she possesses sufficient magical regeneration to sustain normal activities.

　This means that, like Phoenix, she doesn't have to worry about running out of magic power.

　In fact, the Moon Goddess's Soul is not a magical spirit.

　If I had to describe it, her current form would resemble a suit of armor with its own consciousness.

　Similar types of monsters are not uncommon in dungeons.

　"I thought you had forgotten me."

　After the Moon Goddess's soul manifested in physical form, it complained with a sense of grievance.

　Dark gave an awkward laugh and then looked away.

　I can't exactly tell her that I've truly forgotten her, can I?

　The Moon Goddess's soul itself has no combat abilities, and her path of growth is already locked. Only by absorbing more primordial divinity can she complete her transformation.

　She doesn't even have the ability to cast spells until she absorbs enough of the Root Divinity.

　They were destined never to become magicians or archmages.

　Therefore, when Dark was planning the learning arrangements for the magical spirits, he rarely considered her.

　"If you also want to attend classes..."

　Dark thought for a moment and then said, "I can let you join the study group as a magical elf."

　"Classes? Can they help me become the Moon Goddess?" the Moon Goddess's soul asked in surprise.

　Dark paused for a moment, then said, "No."

　The Moon Goddess's soul immediately said, "Then I won't go."

　But Dark changed his mind: "But now I want you to take classes."

　Moon Goddess's Soul: "Huh? How could this be?"

　Dark shook his head: "We have to attend class."

　Then he thought for a moment and said, "From now on, you'll think of yourself as a magical spirit, with the card name 'Moon Maiden,' the same type of magical spirit card as 'Phoenix Maiden,' understand?"

　The Moon Goddess's soul complained, "And who is the Phoenix Maiden?"

　"It's me." The Phoenix Maiden's voice was unusually cold, a stark contrast to her fiery appearance.

　……

　Learning brings people not only knowledge, but also cultivation.

　Dark gradually realized that this Moon Goddess's soul was extremely lacking in self-cultivation.

　If left unattended, even if it undergoes a transformation in the future, it probably won't have the capacity to control the power of the moon goddess.

　That might cause some trouble.

　Since the potential trouble has been foreseen, it is natural to nip it in the bud.

　Dark plans to assign Luna Soul to Ms. Cook's study group, placing her alongside the vampire heiress and Phoenix.

　Ms. Cook was just an ordinary human without magical talent and could not perceive the special nature of the Moon Goddess's soul, making her a suitable teacher for it.

　……

　As night deepened, Dak told a few educational and entertaining stories as usual before falling asleep peacefully.

　Next, like the magical spirits, he only had one day of leisure left.

　On the last day before the start of "summer tutoring", he summoned Janice, the head maid of the "Pisces Maid Corps".

　Janice does not have a "golden armor". The maids she leads serve as "diplomacy" in the Duke's mansion, which is the "public relations department".

　However, since the Duke's mansion really didn't have much need for "diplomacy," and the Duke didn't like to hold tea parties, she was bored out of her mind every day.

　Janice is a classic redhead, always wearing her long, burgundy hair pulled up high, revealing her fair and slender neck.

　Her skin was fair and smooth, with a natural hydration.
