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

　Dark's research on magical spirits has led him to a relatively clear understanding of the levels of Digimon and the corresponding star ratings of magical spirits.

　Basically, the "growth period" and below correspond to the first step.

　"Maturity" corresponds to the second stage.

　The "complete form" corresponds to the third tier.

　The "Ultimate" level and above correspond to the fourth tier.

　The reason why using the "Sin Cards" can allow Digimon to evolve is because the "Seven Deadly Sins" themselves are a kind of mental power.

　Tailmon is currently stuck in the process of evolving from the sixth star to the seventh star, which is equivalent to being stuck in the process of "mega evolution" into its perfect form.

　Based on the original text, this implies a lack of sufficient mental strength.

　Dark doesn't have a "psychic power amplifier" like the "Badge," but he possesses the "Seven Deadly Sins"!

　"Three Flowers Technique!"

　Thinking of this, Dak immediately focused his mind and used the "Three Flowers Technique".

　"Tick!"

　Like a drop of water falling into the heart, ripples spread outwards.

　A white light shone from Dark's fingertips, and a wisp of mental power emanated from them.

　Then he slowly opened his eyes, and deep within them, the emblems that seemed to represent great sins flashed by.

　"Gitomon".

　Under the watchful eyes of all the magical spirits, Dark reached out his hand to Gatomon.

　……

　Tailmon's consciousness was very clear, so it was even more aware of the pain of wanting to burst open but being unable to.

　Its will is not weak.

　Those who possess the "heroic quality" all have a strong enough will.

　But at this moment, it is also vulnerable.

　They are like infants curled up in their mother's amniotic fluid. Willpower alone cannot bring about any substantial change.

　Beneath the surface of "arrogance" lies a heart that possesses a gentleness unique to the attributes of light.

　It needs help.

　……

　The moment their fingers touched, a burst of light shone forth!

　……

　Dark had an idea. He stepped forward and firmly grasped Gatomon's slender, glowing hand, which had become as delicate as a young girl's.

　The pure aura of light returned along with the sensory feedback of the power of the mind.

　Dak felt a gentle warmth, like water.

　He now has mastered the art of "arrogance" with ease, and with a mere thought, he can make "arrogance" surface.

　The "psychic power" injected into Tailmon's body has an added element of "arrogance," leaning towards light.

　As the power of their minds flowed, Dark clearly felt a thin, long thread building a bridge between their hearts.

　The "true affection" that grows from spending time together, the "true affection" that remains unchanged even without "sentiment," slowly flows into Gatomon's heart as "bonds" are formed.

　Dark felt as if he had touched the most delicate part of Gatomon's heart, and felt the affection that Gatomon had always held for him.

　That feeling grew stronger with time spent together, and at this moment it had already brewed a clear lake in its heart.

　It was so warm, so inviting.

　……

　When the "bond" was established with Impmon, Impmon's consciousness was mostly chaotic and unclear.

　Now that the "bond" has been established with Gatomon, Gatomon's consciousness is incredibly clear, and the feeling is even deeper.

　As Dak became engrossed in that warmth, the power that welled up from his heart grew ever purer and more immense.

　With this power infused, Gatomon has finally achieved a breakthrough!

　Figure

　The light within it completed the process of exploding and then receding in that instant.

　The body, which resembled a radiant aggregate, finally materialized into a physical form.

　White feathers drifted down from among the six wings that suddenly opened.

　The special aura belonging to "angels" spread rapidly like ripples.

　The people guarding outside Dak's bedroom, including Alvette, nodded quietly.

　Far inside the Holy Church, an elder guarding the Holy Church's divine artifact suddenly opened his eyes, his sharp gaze seemingly piercing through space as he stared intently at the Duke's mansion.

　"Another angel has been born!"

　A hint of worry, hard to ignore, lingered in the aged voice.

　……

　Dark watched as Angewomon landed on her toes, and his face revealed undisguised joy.

　Ever since he encountered the remnant soul of the Moon Goddess who had become "Angewomon" in the secret passage, he has always hoped that he could also possess "Angewomon".

　However, the magical spirit created using the feather left behind by "Angewomon" was only "Gatomon".

　Now, he has finally brought about the evolution of "Gatomon"!

　Although half of her face above her red lips was covered by a cross-shaped mask, her beautiful facial features and moist red lips still exuded charm, making one wonder what kind of beautiful face was hidden beneath the mask.

　Angewomon's posture is exceptionally sensual, with her golden hair flowing smoothly down her back. Three holy feathers adorn each side of her face, and a leather belt symbolizing "binding" tightly binds her slender waist and plump right thigh.

　On her left ankle, she wore a golden "sacred ring".

　Pinkish-purple ribbons engraved with mysterious runes are wrapped around her arms, with the two ends of the ribbons shaped like wings.

　Slightly different from the complete "Angewomon", Gatomon's evolution, achieved using the "Pride 4" card, seems to be incomplete.

　As previously thought, it only has six wings and belongs to the "angel type" rather than the "archangel type".

　The difference between them might be reflected in its star rating and stats.

　However, the fact that Gatomon was able to successfully evolve into Angewomon already brought Dark enough joy.

　His gaze swept over Angewomon repeatedly, scrutinizing her from head to toe. His eyes gradually moved downwards, and he suddenly noticed the hands that had remained clasped together ever since.

　He couldn't help but loosen his grip, but when he tried to pull it out, he found that Angewomon's fingers were still gripping him very tightly.

　"Cough! Cough!"

　Dark glanced at the magical spirits behind Angewomon and quickly coughed twice as a demonstration.

　But Angewomon still held his hand, her lips pressed tightly together, her eyes hidden behind a cross mask, lost in thought.

　Dak had to apply some force.

　Angewomon suddenly woke up with a start, and then subconsciously said, "It worked."

　"Yes, it was a success."

　Dark smiled and quietly withdrew his hand.

　This event led to Gatomon's successful evolution into Angewomon. Beyond the apparent surprise, there lies an extraordinary significance hidden within.

　In particular, the fact that he finally relied on mental strength to overcome the last hurdle was almost revolutionary for Dak's research.

　This means that as one becomes more proficient in controlling the power of the mind, the study of the "Seven Deadly Sins" becomes more profound.

　He might no longer need the "Sin Card" to enable the Digimon in Magic Spirits to evolve!

　The power of the mind is currently just an add-on, but it may gradually replace the "Sin Card" in the future.

　Simply using "Sin Cards" to evolve magical spirits has too many limitations.

　If Dark's tactics system could break free from the limitations of the "Great Sin Card" and rely entirely on mental power to drive the evolution of magical spirits, it would undoubtedly receive an extremely terrifying boost.

　However, we should not be overly ambitious at the moment.

　The development process of the "Great Sin Card" is an irreplaceable process of in-depth research into "great sins".

　Dark focused his mind slightly, then temporarily set aside his excessive thoughts and joined the magical spirits in congratulating Gatomon on its successful evolution.

　And at the bedroom door.

　Arvit and the others quietly dispersed without knocking or entering.

　……

　Angewomon, having successfully evolved, exudes a gentle aura that makes people want to get close to her.

　Despite the coldness on its face due to its "arrogance," the magical spirits were already immune to it and all crowded around it. Even Little Devimon reluctantly offered his congratulations.

　Dark had already sat down and picked up the magic card that had transformed into "Angewomon" to examine it closely.

　Figure

　Card Name: Angewomon

　[Type: Spirit Card]

　【grade:】

　[Race: Angel]

　【属性：Light】

　【Magic Power: 3500】

　[Attack: 3600]

　[Defense: 2000]

　【Ultimate Skills: Holy Ring, Holy Arrow, Heavenly Purple Light, Holy Bubble】

　After changing from a "Winged Beast" to an "Angel," Angewomon's three stats were improved more comprehensively, but her weakness in defense remained.

　However, compared to the breakthroughs in magic power and attack power, this flaw seems insignificant.

　Especially its ultimate move, which still has four of them at full power, made Dark's only worries disappear.

　He originally thought that Angewomon, with only six angel wings, would lack a core finishing move, but it seems that's not the case.

　Angewomon is still a genuine gold card!

　"Perhaps it's because what prompted its evolution wasn't just that 'Pride 4' card."

　"The power of the mind compensates for its deficiencies, enabling it to evolve smoothly."

　"If we can forge a complete 'Pride 4,' we won't need the assistance of mental power, and we might even be able to further improve its star rating and three-dimensional attributes."

　After careful analysis, Dark poured more magic power into the magic card to examine the details of the ultimate move.

　"First up is the 'Sacred Ring'!"

　[Holy Ring: Passive Skill. Angewomon's Holy Ring is proof of her Holy type, making her even more powerful. Magic Power +500, Attack +500, Defense +500.]

　The preservation of the "Sacred Ring" is undoubtedly a huge surprise.

　The practicality of increasing both magic attack and defense by 500 points has already been proven countless times by Gatomon.

　This means that Angewomon's base attributes in its normal state will be:

　【Magic Power: 4000】

　[Attack: 4100]

　[Defense: 2500]

　With such terrifying base attributes, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to consider it an eight-star magical spirit.

　Unfortunately, Gatomon did not retain the claw gauntlets that it always wore, which originated from the Ultimate-level Digimon "SaberLeomon," greatly reducing its close-combat effectiveness.

　However, in return, Angewomon gained a special attack called "Holy Arrow".
