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

　After the success of "Single Sword Sheath", he never stopped wanting to replicate it.

　The main reason he felt regret about "Blood Sword" was that there were no Pokémon with the "Blood" type that possessed the "Sword" move.

　The reason why his first holy sword was able to be successfully forged into a "single sword sheath" is closely related to the fact that the "single sword sheath" itself possesses a deadly technique called "holy sword".

　Dark doesn't recall many Pokémon having the same name as their special move.

　Aside from "Single Sheath", the only other "Swordsmen" who have appeared in the Pokémon movie "Kyurem vs. Swordsmen" are the legendary Pokémon Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion, and the mythical Pokémon Keldeo!

　These four Pokémon are all very powerful, with Keldeo being a "Mythical Pokémon"!

　Their attributes are, in order: Steel, Rock, Grass, and Water!

　Also.

　In Digimon, the fusion of WarGreymon (evolved from Agumon) and MetalGarurumon (evolved from MetalGarurumon) to form Omegamon seems to be able to transform into a holy sword called the Omega Sword.

　However, the strength of the "Omega Sword" is definitely far greater than that of the "Holy Swordsman".

　With Dark's current skill level, the success rate of forging the "Omega Sword" is basically zero.

　In fact, because those four Pokémon known as "Saint Swordsmen" are all powerful individuals with extremely high base stats, the probability of successfully training them is extremely low.

　Once successfully crafted, they will likely be third-tier magical spirits.

　The idea of ​​transforming a third-tier magical spirit into a sword form for a second-tier Gatomon or Leomon to control is utterly impractical.

　Therefore, Dark's ideas have always remained only in the realm of imagination.

　He never expected that he would obtain two "Holy Swords" in one go on his first official exploration of the academy dungeon!

　This is a plot that even novelists wouldn't dare to write.

　"We still need to plan carefully. We can't act rashly before we have a definite grasp of the situation."

　……

　Dark took a slight breath and said, "Let's look again and see if there are any other treasures."

　How can there only be one treasure chest in a boss's room?

　Couldn't there at least be some other small things to complement the "Holy Sword"?

　Dark turned around and scooped up the red velvet cloth from the treasure chest. After confirming that there was no hidden compartment underneath, he rubbed his eyes and looked at the "Emerald Holy Sword".

　His eyes immediately turned gold, and the "Eye of Truth" was activated.

　"The value of this holy sword... doesn't seem to be much higher than the 'Blood Holy Sword.' They should both be weapons of the same tier, meaning higher than 'Hawkman Wrestling' but lower than 'Ball-Ball Sea Lion.'"

　"If we can successfully refine it, we might actually be able to create a Biligion..."

　Dark picked up his red velvet cloth and tossed it to Gatomon.

　"Remember to stick it on."

　Neither the "Blood Holy Sword" nor the "Emerald Holy Sword" has a scabbard, and without properly securing the blade, they are inconvenient to carry.

　Dark did not intend to take out the two holy swords and show them to others directly.

　But since someone deliberately lured him to obtain the "Blood Holy Sword," he will not hide it.

　Let the person behind the scenes see for himself that this holy sword is already in his hands.

　As for the specific method of dealing with the "Blood Holy Sword", Dark hasn't figured it out yet.

　He might casually forge it, hoping for a stroke of luck, or he might actually use it to trade with Witt for a useful holy sword—if Witt had one.

　As for its further use, leaving it for "Bastimon" or "Vampire Heiress" is also a viable option.

　Although neither "Bastimon" nor "Vampire Heiress" can activate the Holy Sword power within the "Blood Holy Sword," they might be able to unleash the other half of the Blood power.

　The "Blood River Sanctuary" cast by the Orc Blademaster is indeed a pretty good area-of-effect skill.

　……

　While Dark was carefully calculating, Devimon and Misdreavus had already rushed out, and even Eevee was trying its best to search with its short legs.

　The room wasn't big, but it was full of odds and ends.

　Several magical sprites rummaged through boxes and cabinets, eventually gathering up everything that might be treasures.

　Dak opened his "Eye of Truth" and examined each item carefully, eliminating those that clearly belonged to "architecture" or "decoration," before looking at the other finds.

　Little Dreammon proudly placed down a small treasure chest, while Little Devimon only threw down a few red crystals.

　Little Eevee brought over a long, rectangular box.

　Basically, these three things have shown enough value in the "Eye of Truth".

　Dark picked up the treasure chest that was most likely to contain good stuff first.

　This treasure chest is similar in size to the one containing the "Crescent Moon Pendant," and resembles a jewelry box.

　The treasure chest wasn't locked; just pry open the latches and the lid will open directly.

　Upon seeing the treasure inside the chest, Dark raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

　"what?"

　The little devilmon flew onto his shoulder and looked into the box with a disdainful expression.

　Dark laughed, "A key, do you think it might be a door key?"

　Little Devimon immediately composed himself, saying with a displeased look, "Perhaps!"

　Upon discovering that it had found something good, the Dreammon immediately became excited and floated around the Impmon.

　"Ee-boo!"

　Little Eevee immediately picked up the long box he had painstakingly found, not to be outdone.

　Dak patted its head, then took the box in his hand and opened it.

　On the yellow velvet cloth lay a scroll made of some kind of animal hide.

　Dak's mind started racing, and he became interested.

　Scrolls from dungeons like these may not be useful for improving combat power, but they often have special cultural value.

　He wasn't particularly interested in this area at first. But as he read more and more books, he naturally developed some interest.

　But when he untied the scroll and unfolded it for a closer look, he discovered... it was actually a map!

　The terrain on the map isn't particularly complex; it's more of a "simplified version."

　There are no specially marked lines on the map; the only symbol is a six-pointed star in the upper right corner.

　Apart from that, there is nothing.

　Dark stared intently at the six-pointed star symbol, then shook his head and put the scroll away.

　With his level of knowledge, he was completely incapable of identifying the location from such a map.

　The meaning of that six-pointed star symbol is also unclear.

　"It can't be a treasure map, can it? The six-pointed star marking is a map of hidden treasure."

　"But I've never heard of treasure maps being found in dungeons."

　Filled with doubt, Dak put the bundled scroll back into the box.

　He opened his "eye of truth" again to take a closer look.

　The value of the "key" lies between the insect tree and the cat grass.

　This is not unexpected.

　Even if it really is a key to the dungeon, it wouldn't be very valuable.

　Basically, dungeon keys, like storage boxes, are just a medium used to trigger dungeon mechanics, and do not actually have the ability to manipulate space.

　As for the scroll that Ibu found...

　Its value is lower, second only to the insect tree.

　However, the scroll's value lies primarily in the map on it, and has nothing to do with the scroll itself.

　Therefore, the true value of these two treasures still needs to be determined.

　On the contrary, the crystals that the little devil brought back looked no different from the blood crystals obtained after annihilating the blood frog army.

　These five "blood crystals," plus the previous one, make a total of six.

　Its value lies between that of the insect tree and the cat grass.

　……

　On the surface, if it weren't for the "Emerald Holy Sword" inside the treasure chest as a safety net, this level boss would be considered extremely poor.

　But a single holy sword can be worth a thousand treasures.

　This is a sure-fire way to make money.

　After stuffing all the treasures into his increasingly large bag, Dak patted his cheeks and announced, "Time to go!"

　The room for the tiered boss will not exist forever.

　Once the level boss is defeated, its room will collapse and disappear within ten minutes to two or three hours.

　Therefore, adventurers will choose to leave quickly after looting the treasure.

　Dark didn't want his rewarding night to turn into a disastrous one because the room collapsed—

　As for the other routes within this "dungeon," he had already lost interest in exploring them.

　As the saying goes, "know when to stop" and "greed is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant."

　He has already tried his best tonight, and the magical spirits are all exhausted. It's time to stop.

　……

　To speed things up, Dark recalled both Misdreavus and Eevee into his Magic Cards.

　He himself used a "flight spell" to fly directly over the red liquid.

　It took him about fifteen minutes to finally leave the territory of this level of BOSS and land through the stone gate.

　After landing, Dak turned to look at the massive stone gate, and a slight sense of excitement, which had only arisen at this moment, suddenly entered his mind.

　Suddenly, he seemed to realize that in his first official adventure, he had single-handedly defeated a level boss.

　This should have been an exciting, thrilling, and noteworthy event.

　But now it has happened so naturally...

　"So be it."

　Dark shook his head, then turned and left with several magical sprites.

　If we're fast enough, we might be able to get back to the safe zone before 11 o'clock.

　……

　The tenth floor, the safe zone.

　There were very few students around the magic marker, whether they arrived early or late.

　When Dak returned quickly, he was puzzled to find that none of the senior students he had just met were there.

　"Did they all go out too?"

　Dark frowned slightly, glanced at the few students he wasn't very familiar with, and then abandoned the idea of ​​directly launching "Paradise".

　He walked to the magical marker, stepped over the circle of "snake tongue flowers" surrounding the Medusa statue, and retrieved the "key" he had found in the final room.

　The key is between ten and fifteen centimeters long, and its surface is a grayish-white with a faint silver sheen, giving it a metallic texture and weight.

　If it truly is a "door key," then it will react whenever it comes near a magical marker.

　With a glimmer of hope, Dark brought the key to the chest of the Medusa statue. As the statue's magic came into contact with it, the key indeed emitted a special magical fluctuation.

　"Looks like it's the door key!"

　Dak couldn't help but show a look of delight.

　Defeating bosses in different tiers is indeed one way to obtain "Gate Keys" and "Gate Crystals".

　But to actually obtain the "door key" is still very lucky.
