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

　Camilla immediately became alert, her eyes focused, and she unconsciously assumed a fighting stance, her spear pointing slightly diagonally, her aura subdued.

　Seeing her wary look, Dak smiled slightly, flicked his finger, and the white die engraved with eighteen different colored symbols instantly soared into the air.

　"May all my wishes come true, please grant my desires quickly!"

　The magic power within his body flowed out like a flood, and the "Wishful Dice" was like an insatiable white tiger, frantically absorbing his magic power.

　The attribute symbols on the eighteen sides lit up one after another, white and black light intertwined, and eighteen shades of colored light rotated and shone, as dazzling and colorful as neon lights.

　All eyes in the room were drawn to the colorful light.

　The maids strained their eyes, enduring Camilla's slightly lessened "presence," eagerly anticipating their young master's next performance.

　The battle between Dark Dimon and the "Silver Wolf Knight" completely changed their assumptions about his strength.

　In a simple swordsmanship contest, the young master might not be as skilled.

　But in a contest of true strength, he is in no way inferior to anyone.

　Thinking about it carefully, the young master, who hadn't even started school last year, was clearly still unrestrained.

　The child with such strength has become such an amazing person in less than a year. The world is truly wonderful.

　They lived in the mansion year-round and had many feelings about it.

　Perhaps one day, when the young master steps onto the dueling stage again, they can take leave to go and watch.

　The maids, thinking this, suddenly noticed the eighteen-sided coin.

　The dice have stopped spinning.

　Then the glowing symbols on the eighteen sides went out one after another, leaving only the last side still lit.

　Although they couldn't understand the meaning, all the maids were completely focused.

　Amidst a series of exclamations, a long, glowing blue dragon suddenly snaked out from the die.

　Then the auspicious die transformed into a stream of light and followed closely behind as the long dragon flew out.

　After circling in the air, the blue dragon of light swooped down and swirled around Dark Dimon.

　Dark Deemon stood with his sword in hand, surrounded by flying dragons, and a powerful aura, distinct from mere "momentum," surged forth.

　"Dragon type? Dragon Dance!"

　Dark was filled with fighting spirit, as if a dragon had possessed him.

　[Dragon Dance: Perform a fierce and powerful dragon dance, increasing base attack and base speed by 50%!]

　"Dragon Dance," which belongs to the Dragon type, and "Sword Dance," which belongs to the Normal type, are clearly the same type of special moves.

　However, the special move performed by "Lucky Dice" has not been adjusted much and is basically the original move from Pokémon.

　In the original version, "Sword Dance" always increases attack by 100%, while "Dragon Dance" increases attack and speed by 50%.

　Both sides have their strengths.

　Moreover, unlike the "Sword Dance" of the "Single Sheath" at this time, it does not only have the power of a single strike.

　The increased attack and speed remain effective until the blue dragon's light fades!

　The 2000-point increase in base attack power brought Dark's attack power back to 5800.

　But the more important improvement is actually in his speed!

　A full 50% increase in base speed is actually a very outrageous change.

　Feeling the lightness of the clinging body, Dak leaned forward slightly—and vanished from his spot in an instant!

　The scenery in my field of vision rushed past, and the information entering my brain became fragmented.

　That speed was even beyond his own control!

　"boom!"

　The sensation of the sword colliding with the gun traveled through my nerves before the sound came from behind my head.

　Dark's heart fluttered slightly.

　A surge of excitement rose within him, and he quickly turned around.

　Camilla, who had blocked the lightning-fast sword strike thanks to her rich combat experience, instantly changed her expression, her five fingers involuntarily tightening their grip, and the black runes on the gun surface reappeared.

　Without hesitation, she swung her spear around, and a massive surge of magical power, previously unseen, erupted from Fenrir Spear, the shadow of a demonic wolf attaching itself to the spear.

　As Camilla spun her spear, she left a trail of dark afterimages, which unfolded swiftly like a curtain.

　But in the next instant, Dark, who had already turned around, swung his second sword—"Double Slash"!

　"boom!"

　A deafening roar, like muffled thunder, erupted instantly!

　The "Double Slash" skill's attack power increased by another 2000 points, bringing Dark's sword strike to a terrifying 7800 points.

　With only a Fenrir Gun, Camilla had no chance of blocking this attack.

　The shadow of the demonic wolf wrapped around the "Fenrir Spear" was crushed almost effortlessly, and the immense magical power within it was instantly annihilated.

　After the magic power was exhausted, countless cracks appeared on the gun, and it broke into pieces with a "bang," with the remaining magic power scattering like starlight.

　Camilla seemed to be momentarily stunned, and her hand was now empty of gun.

　She tucked her fingers together, feeling that emptiness...

　The feeling of being adrift reminded him of the dangers of wartime.

　When was the last time a weapon was destroyed?

　She stood there, lost in thought.

　The entire room fell silent.

　……

　After shattering the "Fenrir Gun", Dark slid forward a great distance before coming to an abrupt stop.

　He pointed his single-edged sword scabbard diagonally at the ground, the silver armor gleaming, while the blue dragons dancing around him dimmed.

　The force of the recoil made his fingers numb, but the excitement in his heart had only just begun to surface.

　……

Chapter 482 Arvit's Armament Training Mini-Lesson (4k)

　"I admit defeat."

　After only a brief silence, Camilla awoke from her reverie.

　She turned to look at Dark, a faint smile on her face, and conceded defeat.

　She is no longer the "Silver Wolf Knight" who would stop at nothing to achieve victory.

　She placed her hands together in front of her, the overwhelming aura she had previously exuded had completely vanished, leaving only her usual gentle and tender demeanor.

　……

　Upon hearing her concede defeat, Dark felt a sense of relief, and the excitement he had just felt quickly faded.

　"Good luck."

　He took a deep breath and did not become arrogant because of this victory.

　In fact, Camilla is terrifyingly powerful.

　If he hadn't been lucky enough to roll "Dragon Dance" with the "Lucky Dice", he probably wouldn't have had a chance of winning.

　This is because Camilla only used one weapon card!

　"Silver Wolf Knight" Camilla not only mastered martial arts and magic, but also possessed the necessary magical knowledge, making her a strong enough person to participate in the final battle.

　Even if she has focused on her family for more than ten years without making any progress, she is still not someone that Dark can easily defeat now.

　Of course, Darko wouldn't underestimate himself.

　He picked up the magic card and voluntarily deactivated "Armed Evolution".

　Therefore, in the next moment, he transformed from an adult form back into the appearance of a thirteen-year-old.

　"Although the armed form is also quite good, the original form is definitely better."

　Claire Kate smiled slightly and announced the end of the impromptu tiebreaker.

　Then she clapped her hands, signaling the maids, who were the audience, to leave quickly.

　The maids, filled with barely suppressed excitement, glanced in the direction of the young master as they gradually made their way out.

　Once outside, they couldn't help but start a lively discussion, their cheerful laughter echoing throughout the Duke's mansion.

　And Dark's final performance quickly became known to everyone.

　……

　Inside the martial arts arena.

　Once all the maids had left, Alvit came to Dark and couldn't help but pull him into a hug, then said, "The last two sword strikes were quite good."

　Dark blinked: "But that was just luck."

　“Luck is always a form of strength,” Arvit said with a smile. “And isn’t our success today also due to luck?”

　Dak seemed to be deep in thought.

　Camilla and Claire also came over.

　Claire joked, "Didn't expect to lose, did you, Camilla?"

　Camilla smiled gently: "There are just too many unexpected things in this world. Perhaps even if you, Claire, were to step into the duel, you might still lose."

　Claire held up a finger and wagged it confidently, saying, "Not at least not now."

　A duel between mages is naturally a magic duel using magic cards. And in a magic duel, even if she wanted to lose, it wouldn't be so easy.

　But after saying that, she suddenly turned her head and said, "By the way, Dark. Where's your 'zoo'?"

　Dark looked slightly embarrassed: "There's one last problem."

　Claire nodded and said, "Don't keep it to yourself if you can't solve it. Just come find me tonight."

　“Okay,” Dark said.

　Claire then added, "Given your learning pace, your training in Qi and swordsmanship will be temporarily put on hold. July will primarily focus on weapon forging, but other magical knowledge should not be neglected."

　Arvit agreed, "While the two weapon cards you crafted are quite unique, it doesn't mean your basic knowledge is sufficient. The fact that there are no intermediate-level weapon cards is proof of that."

　Dark nodded: "That's right. Apart from the 'Moon Goddess Armor' and the 'Wishful Dice,' most of the weapons I've crafted only have a costume-changing effect."

　“It seems your problem is more serious than I thought,” Arvit said. “Then let’s start with the basics tomorrow. But you can’t slack off on your morning exercises.”

　Dak replied, "I need normal, unrestricted weaponry."

　The "Divine Armament" in "Soul of the Moon 1" is similar to the "Evolution" type, lasting only about 15 minutes, with a cooldown of up to an hour.

　While this unconventional weaponry has its unique features, its inability to be used around the clock is a major drawback.

　“That will depend on your own efforts.” Arvit smiled slightly. “Once you are able to forge conventional weapons, I will take you somewhere else.”

　Dak asked curiously, "Where?"

　"Judging from your performance just now, it seems like a place that will satisfy you," said Arvit mysteriously.

　"What happened just now?" Dark thought for a moment, then guessed, "Could it be some kind of battle tower?"

　Upon hearing this, Arvit couldn't help but ask, "Could you let Mom keep a little mystery about herself?"

　"Haha." Dark chuckled dryly. "I've only guessed a rough idea, haven't I? Anyway, if it's a battle tower, I'm really looking forward to it."
