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

　"Tsk." Phyllis clicked her tongue and looked away.

　Dark asked with great interest, "As for Eugénie, are you from the Eugénie Merchant Guild?"

　Brown's expression softened slightly as he said, "The Eugénie Chamber of Commerce is indeed the chamber of commerce to which our family belongs."

　Dak asked curiously, "Is it alright for nobles to travel as merchants?"

　Brown said, "It wasn't so good before, but it's different now. Who doesn't want more money? However, my uncle is still the official person in charge of Eugénie. He doesn't hold any position in the kingdom."

　Dak nodded, his gaze strange; he seemed to have already foreseen the capitalization of the kingdom's future.

　However, in this era where individual power is becoming increasingly exaggerated, the capitalization of the kingdom in the future should also be quite unique, right?

　The Dumont family has ties to the political and military spheres, but seems to have made little progress in the business world.

　Even the "Soul-Stirring" clubhouse, which has the involvement of the Dimon family, is not a purely profit-driven establishment.

　Compared to politics and military affairs, Daqo was more interested in commerce.

　After all, who doesn't like a dummy?

　Moreover, the development of magical technology does indeed require a large amount of wealth as support.

　Although the Dimon family is wealthy, it belongs to the entire family, and even if he becomes the head of the family in the future, he cannot misappropriate it.

　If one has their own directly affiliated chamber of commerce, they can use it at will.

　At that time, we might even be able to monetize some of our magical techniques.

　Thinking of this, Dark looked up and said, "I know the person who planned the model Easter egg. How about this, tomorrow is Sunday, I'll help you schedule a time?"

　“That would be wonderful!” Brown Eugénie exclaimed.

　Dark smiled slightly: "It's nothing. How about tomorrow afternoon at one o'clock, at my house?"

　Brown was taken aback: "How could I possibly accept that?"

　Dark leaned back on the sofa and said lazily, "What's there to be embarrassed about? We're all young people, just visiting each other. Or is there something you're having trouble saying?"

　Brown turned his head slightly, somewhat embarrassed: "That's not it."

　Phyllis suddenly said, "Go ahead."

　Brown hesitated, then asked, "Should I really go?"

　"Tsk." Phyllis clicked her tongue again. "What's there to hesitate about? If I could go to the Valkyrie's house, I would definitely run there."

　Brown rubbed his hands together and said, "That's true. It's tomorrow at one o'clock in the afternoon, isn't it?"

　Darke laughed and said, "Yes, afternoon tea."

　Then he immediately looked at the others and politely asked, "Would you like to join us?"

　To everyone's surprise, these people who were clearly hanging out with Jeffrey nodded like rabbits, as if they wanted to jump straight into the Duke's mansion!

　Dak was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't back out, so he had Trina write down the names of the group of people so that the gatekeeper could let them through later.

　Phyllis's eyes crinkled with laughter.

　……

　As evening approached, the young noblemen all took their leave, and the remaining two also made an excuse to go elsewhere.

　After Dark had some free time, he had dinner with Diana and the magical elves in the circular corridor.

　The evening water dance performance was exceptionally dazzling, captivating all who watched.

　Especially the young lady wearing a tight-fitting school swimsuit, her long, swan-like neck left a deep impression.

　But the biggest highlight was indeed the upcoming magic duel exhibition match.

　Dark deliberately stayed behind to enjoy this exhibition match.

　Formal duels prioritize speed and victory, so duelists will use every means at their disposal, calculating every second of offense and defense. The entertainment value of a duel lies primarily in the intense confrontation, rather than in various dazzling techniques.

　However, the exhibition matches of magic duels have a completely different focus.

　They prefer to showcase dazzling techniques during the duel, making the entire duel more dramatic.

　The special guest for this competition, "Butterfly Princess," is an expert in exhibition matches.

　Of course, even in formal duels, her fighting style is extremely flashy.

　After eating and drinking their fill, Dak and the others leisurely waited for "Butterfly Princess" to make her appearance.

　Along the way, many nobles came to greet them, men and women, young and old, all kinds of people.

　But those people were quite perceptive; after saying hello, they left without causing any further disturbance.

　Most of them come just to leave an impression.

　Perhaps next time we meet, I can say to Dark, "Long time no see."

　……

　At eight o'clock sharp.

　The exhibition match of magic duels has finally begun.

　The duelist named "Butterfly Princess" made a grand entrance riding a magical spirit; she was indeed a very beautiful lady.

　She had her long red hair piled up behind her head, revealing her slender, fair neck. She was tall and slender yet curvaceous, and wore a gorgeous costume for a performance, giving her the air of an actress.

　Her opponent was a professional duelist trained by the guild, who was also a woman of considerable beauty.

　The duel between the two was extremely spectacular, leaving the audience in awe.

　However, Dark shook his head halfway through.

　It looks glamorous on the outside, but it's not so good on the inside.

　This experience made him realize the gap between duelists from the outside world and those from St. Marian Academy.

　That was truly like a chasm.

　"No wonder the dueling competitions in the academy are so popular, with seats for tens of thousands of people always packed."

　After a moment's consideration, he simply abandoned the comparison and watched it as a performance, which was quite enjoyable.

　……

　After the magical duel ended, Dark did not linger. He called Diana and the others and boarded the carriage for the return journey.

　The carriage traveled through the quiet night, bathed in the peaceful moonlight.

　Bon Voyage.

　……

　Despite the chaotic state of the capital recently, it is clear that most people are actually afraid of losing their lives.

　On this trip, Dak didn't encounter even a petty thief and returned safely to the Duke's mansion.

　Once inside the mansion, as it was late, Dak invited Diana to stay the night.

　Diana readily complied, and after Dak instructed the maid to deliver a letter to the Greta Baye family, she happily slipped into Aurora's room.

　The two sisters were ready to talk all night long.

　Dark simply smiled helplessly and returned to his room.

　He then took a bath and changed his clothes to wash away the dust, and then sat down at the lab table and brought up the system panel.

　"System, expand the indicators."

　【Yes. 】

　After a while.

　Seven indicators appeared in Dac's field of vision.

　Arrogance: 98

　Jealousy: 43

　[Rage: 77]

　Laziness: 67

　Greed: 91

　[Bingeing: 78]

　【Paradise: 91】

　Tonight is only the seventh night of July, and the data hasn't changed much since the beginning of the month.

　The system's statistical metrics don't use rounding; they simply omit the digits after the decimal point.

　During this period, apart from "Envy" and "Sloth" each decreasing slightly, "Greed" and "Bliss" only increased slightly after being extracted.

　The main focus is undoubtedly on "arrogance"!

　"Arrogance," which had been drained to just over 90 points before today, has jumped to 98 points!

　34; Jeffrey is such a good person! 34;

　Looking at the "Pride" that could be drawn six more times, Dark couldn't help but sigh.

　He couldn't be bothered to understand Jeffrey's reasons for acting this way. Such childish games wouldn't have much of an impact on him.

　in contrast.

　Given the shortage of experimental materials, he actually hoped that such timely assistance could come more often.

　"In any case, let's start with a drop of 'Arrogance'!"

　Every time Dark drew "Pride", he felt a pang of unease.

　Because he had not actually developed the exclusive transmutation array for "Pride 4" yet, and there was not even any progress.

　This gives the gradual accumulation of these actions a feeling that is hard to describe.

　It's like a squirrel storing up food for winter, only to find that winter never comes.

　Even when "arrogance" accumulates to 30 points, there may still be no clue.

　When the time comes, he'll have to find a way to use up those 30 points of "arrogance".

　That was truly a very sad thing.

　Dak sighed, embraced two women, and then fell asleep.

　……

　July 7th, after noon.

　The weather was slightly overcast, with a few raindrops splashing down, but the dark clouds lingered and did not fall for a long time, making the weather muggy.

　Phyllis Raman, Blonde Eugénie, and three other shameless noblemen and women then arrived one after another.

　When Alvitt learned that her darling had invited people to the tea party, she excitedly instructed Ollie to give them a grand welcome.

　If she didn't have official duties to attend to, she would definitely fulfill her responsibilities as a good mother and take care of everything herself.

　The Eugénie family was a very famous noble family in the capital, but unfortunately, their reputation wasn't exactly positive.

　This family made their fortune through business and later became nobles by purchasing titles, but they have always had a bad reputation.

　Regardless of the era, merchants are often perceived as cunning and mercenary, especially since their titles were bought.

　In an effort to change this situation, the previous head of the Eugénie family chose to devote all his wealth to supporting the army during the war, which ultimately earned him the king's favor and slightly improved the family's reputation.

　The current head of the Eugénie family is Grandet Eugénie. She currently works at the royal court, specifically in the financial sphere.

　Grandet was completely different from the previous head of the family; he was a meticulous shrewd accountant who wished he could split a single holy coin in two.

　But for a kingdom with an empty treasury after the war, someone like Grandet was indispensable.

　From the moment he took office, it became increasingly difficult for other departments to obtain funds from the finance department, leading to widespread complaints.
