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

　Dac's next task is to interpret it.

　If the interpretation fails, try a clumsy but potentially effective method!

Chapter 533 Darkdemon Under the Scorching Sun (4k)

　自八月二十三日晚上开始研究月之神殿的壁画起始，达克便不再分心他顾。104;116;116;112;58;47;47;119;119;119;46;50;99;121;120;115;119;46;99;111;109;47;

　He tried to think for himself as much as possible, only consulting Claire and Ylvette when he encountered something truly difficult to understand.

　Claire and Alvett both knew he was researching the "power of the moon goddess." But they didn't know he was researching something far more fundamental.

　The commonality between "Paradise" and "the power of the moon goddess" meant that Dark didn't need to hide his research at all.

　The evolution of the magical spirits seems to be explained by this.

　After discussing it privately with Claire, Aylvit felt that teaching Dark to swordsmanship was putting the cart before the horse.

　Dark has clearly embarked on a unique path in his research on magical technology.

　Moreover, it must be a path to divinity with boundless potential!

　Both the divinity displayed by "Bastimon" and the aura of the moon goddess that "Soul of the Moon Goddess" often exudes foreshadow this.

　The world has opened a door for him.

　As parents, all we need to do is watch over them.

　……

　However, Dac's research on the murals was not without its challenges.

　In fact, by the evening of August 26, he had completely given up on fully interpreting the mural.

　The murals that have been recorded are clearly lacking something essential compared to the original murals carved on the temple walls.

　His current research is like trying to study the internal structure of a rocket by comparing it to a picture of the rocket... It's impossible to get any results.

　Therefore, on the evening of the 26th, he finally decided to try a different approach.

　In other words, the mural was compiled and simplified in a very unique way, ultimately turning into a magical circuit similar to a circuit board.

　Then, this magic circuit is looped into a circle and engraved on a magic card.

　The overall structure is completely modeled after the design of the Temple of the Moon.

　The emblem of "Elysium" or "Pride" is engraved in the very center of the Magic Card to replace the original statue of the Moon Goddess.

　Although Dark's goal is to create "Pride 4," it's more sensible to experiment with "Bliss" first, given the current circumstances.

　Fortunately, he still has 0.5 points of "Bliss" left, so even if he uses it, he won't feel too bad.

　……

　After coming up with the idea, Dark spent an entire night preparing. Then, on the morning of August 27th, he began simplifying—or rather, adding magic runes—to the mural!

　The so-called magic runes are actually the prototype of magic spells.

　Before magicians developed corresponding magical scripts and spells written in magic script, they recorded magic or inscribed magic circles in the form of magical symbols.

　In other words, magic patterns are pictures, and magic spells are words.

　Although Dac's research in this area was limited, it did not prevent him from transforming the mural into a magic pattern through a certain format.

　The magic pattern is mainly composed of a large number of geometric patterns and lines. If it is spread out in large quantities, it will give people a direct sense of geometric beauty.

　The entire process of creating magical runes is similar to scaling down proportionally, but it is much more complex.

　The most basic requirement is to allow magic to permeate the entire magic rune and produce a magic-like effect.

　Generally speaking, the magical effect is not complete, but it will produce that feeling.

　It's like you can't release a small fireball, but it makes people feel that the temperature has risen.

　This is essentially Dark's ultimate goal.

　He needs to simplify the mural into a single magical rune that emits a special fluctuation before proceeding with further experiments.

　At 2:00 AM on February 28th, after nearly 20 hours of effort, he finally completed the initial magic rune transformation.

　He then immediately went to sleep, and after sleeping for six hours, he got up to continue.

　He first spent about two hours checking and adjusting the magic rune, and then took out a blank magic card and made the base according to the precise method of making "emotion cards".

　Once the base was laid, he first planned the positions on the base, and then used a magic pen to engrave the magic patterns on it.

　No mistakes or omissions are allowed in this process.

　Although Dak concentrated, he still made a mistake on his first seal carving attempt and had to start all over again.

　Once the circular magic rune engraving was complete, he breathed a slight sigh of relief, took out the magic brain dropper, sucked the last 0.5 points of "Ecstasy" into the dropper, and then placed the tip of the magic brain dropper against the location of the "Moon Goddess Statue".

　Due to special treatment, this time the "bliss" did not spread outwards as it usually does after dripping.

　It floats on the surface like a drop of water, emitting a faint misty fragrance.

　Dark carefully picked up the magic pen, poured magic into it, and let it flow through the mercury axis to the tip of the pen, and then extend outward from the tip to form an extremely fine point.

　He then manipulated the magic with extremely precise techniques to draw out that drop of "Elysium," gradually transforming it into the shape of the "Elysium" emblem.

　Once the inscription was completed, the emblem seeped into the base of the magic card, leaving a pink mark.

　After waiting for two minutes...

　Dark then proceeded to the next step, inscribing the basic transmutation array, including the No. 7 transmutation array, to achieve effects such as imprinting, refining, amplification, preventing loss, and automatic recovery.

　Once all the transmutation arrays required for the meticulous creation of these "emotion cards" were drawn, Dark began to apply the final "sealing fluid."

　Soon, this magic card, which only used 0.5 drops of "Elysium", was completely completed.

　Dark carefully examined the magic card.

　The fully formed magic card has only a ring of complex magic runes around the perimeter of the card face, with the emblem of "Paradise" engraved in the upper center, and the background color is a very light pink.

　Dark frowned slightly in thought, then reached out and touched the magic card, attempting to infuse it with magic power.

　The magic card reacted immediately without requiring much magic power to be injected.

　The intricate magic runes first lit up, emerging from the card surface and then expanding and contracting like a halo.

　The emblem of "Paradise" also lit up, complementing the other emblems.

　Unconsciously, a sense of pleasure arose within Dak.

　He snapped back to reality, took out "Fantasy Beast: Eevee" from his card pack, first desummoned it, and then reactivated it.

　In fact, because Impmon has always been active in its familiar form, Dark cannot summon it to its side in this way.

　Otherwise, its special status would be unshakeable.

　"Ee-bu?"

　The suddenly summoned Eevee tilted its head and called out affectionately.

　In the final days of the holiday, the tutors were cramming whatever they wanted to teach into the minds of the magical spirits in a rushed manner, keeping them all very busy.

　"Let's do an experiment."

　Dark waved the magic card, and after receiving a nod from Eevee, he cast a Normal Summoning spell to summon it.

　A moment later, a faint pink glow was released from the emblem on the card, which then shone on Eevee's forehead.

　As if in response, the same "Elysium" emblem lit up on Eevee's forehead, and its body emitted a faint pink glow.

　Its expression softened subtly, as if it were very comfortable.

　But that's where it ends.

　This magic card, crafted using 0.5 points of "Elysium," only exhibits the effect of a "Happiness Card."

　Dak frowned.

　He could clearly sense that the magic runes were indeed working—although he couldn't discern the specific effects, the emblem used to replace the statue of the Moon Goddess had also been activated.

　According to his idea, this magic card should theoretically be able to produce an effect close to "Elysium 1", immersing Eevee in Elysium.

　"It's also possible that Ibrahimovic has developed a resistance to the emotional changes caused by 'Elysium'."

　Dark turned to look at the two Mind Bottles on the table, pondered for a moment, then turned to Ibu and said, "Go back to class first."

　Little Eevee came and went in complete bewilderment, leaving without a trace.

　……

　Next, Dark took out another magic card and made it using the same method.

　This time, however, the emblem of "pride" was used to replace the statue of the moon goddess.

　Because it has a total of 35 points of "Arrogance".

　This time, he was prepared to try it out with a full point of "arrogance".

　The main purpose of this experiment is to see if the magic rune that is effective for "Elysium" can also be effective for "Pride".

　More than an hour later, he finally completed the process.

　A brand new "Pride 1" card appeared before him.

　Because his overall strategy was very clear, he was quite certain of the basic effects of "Pride 1" when he successfully created it. Therefore, he did not immediately summon Eevee for the experiment this time, but instead stopped and left the laboratory.

　As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ollie waiting outside.

　It seems that Ollie had been looking for an opportunity to invite him to dinner.

　Dark nodded to her and hurried toward the restaurant, arriving just before the meal was over. He then grabbed the little devilmon, whose mouth was dripping with oil.

　If we're talking about guinea pigs, then Devimon is definitely the most suitable.

　Dark picked up the new card "Pride 1", called Little Devimon to a corner, and then activated the magic card.

　As the crest of "Pride" emitted a dark golden light, Devimon involuntarily clenched his toes.

　Dark could see that the skull pattern on its forehead faded and turned into the emblem of "arrogance".

　Then it abruptly closed its eyes, clenched its teeth, and pressed its lips tightly together. Undoubtedly, it was resisting the erosion of "arrogance" with its own willpower.

　It must be said that Devimon has indeed made great progress in the past year, and even his temperament and will have been tempered.

　It successfully survived, and did not sit idly in the sky because of "Pride 1".

　However, Darke could still discern the effect of "Pride 1" from its reaction.

　He then pointed to a secluded spot and said, "Use 'small darts'."

　The little devil immediately opened its eyes, and a shark-head syringe materialized under its wings.

　Before it could fire, Dark tapped it on the head and said, "Stop."

　The little devil's face froze, and he stopped in his tracks.

　But Dark's experiment was already complete.

　Before being sealed inside the "Cursed Cage," Impmon, as a familiar, did not possess any special attacks.

　However, "Pride 1" can grant it a special move.

　Its successful summoning of "Small Darts" means that this "Arrogance 1" is indeed effective.

　But that's all.

　Dark found nothing different from the previous "Pride 1" in it.

　However, as time went on, a new conclusion was quickly reached on this point.

　This "Pride 1" was restored to usable status in just fifty minutes!

　This means that the cooldown, which was originally close to one hour, has been reduced by a full ten points!

　……

　This discovery undoubtedly boosted Dark's confidence in the magic rune.

　This means that the magic rune is indeed working.

　And that effect gave "Pride 1" a certain degree of boost!
