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

　Looking at the "Dream Demon" floating in the air, Dark said calmly, "Dream Demon, deploy 'Nightmare Space' to cover the entire area."

　……

　"Yao Mi—"

　Upon hearing Dark's command, "Dream Demon" let out a coquettish cry, then suddenly opened its arm-like tentacles and unleashed its ultimate move—"Nightmare Space"!

　Its eyes emitted an eerie pink light, and thick purple smoke suddenly erupted from below, spreading outwards at an extremely fast speed.

　Almost instantly, the purple smoke filled the entire blue team's half of the court and continued to spread towards the red team's area.

　Although the purple smoke visually only covered the ground below the knees, the height that the "Nightmare Space" could reach when fully expanded was no less than its length and width.

　In fact, it would be a cube with exactly the same length, width, and height.

　However, due to the limitations of the site's shape, it had to adjust the shape of the "Nightmare Space".

　In short.

　Within this vast spatial coverage, the Red Team's Magic Ball has nowhere to hide!

　……

　"In the name of Dark Demon, I summon—'Renamon'!"

　Dak gave Jimmy no chance whatsoever.

　Before ordering "Dreammon" to attack the red team's magic ball, he also summoned "Renamon".

　And this way.

　Of his three magical spirits, two were positioned in the enemy's and his own summoning zones: one guarding the enemy's magical spirit, and the other protecting his own magical orb.

　The "Dream Demon," now free, silently disappeared into the "Nightmare Space."

　Jimmy Abbott was unaware that his magic ball had been discovered.

　The "Dream Demon" that disappeared into the "Nightmare Space" is the magic ball that caught it!

　……

　One second the commentator was asking the audience how Dark Dimon would deal with Jimmy Abbott's invisibility, and the next second it was clear that there was no need to deal with it at all...

　Since the red Magic Ball has been targeted by "Dream Monster", it is impossible for it to escape.

　"Dream Demon" raised its tentacles, which had transformed into claws, and slapped the red Magic Ball twice.

　With those two palm strikes, the life barrier shattered on the spot!

　【4000→0】

　……

　"Beep——"

　The referee blew his whistle immediately, announcing the winner.

　"The battle is over."

　"The victor: Dark Dimon!"

　……

　A moment later, the commentator's exclamation suddenly rang out, prompting the audience to cheer.

　"Although this duel only lasted two rounds, those two rounds were the result of a great deal of effort both on and off stage."

　"Both fighters employed various strategies on the dueling stage, with Jimmy Abbott's stealth tactics being particularly impressive. However, Dark Dimon, who easily countered his tactics, was clearly the stronger fighter."

　"The thick purple fog that spread across the entire venue could not obscure the brilliance of Dark Dimon."

　"Now, let us shout the name of the victor!"

　……

　"Dakdak! Dimon Dimon!"

　The applause from the audience outside the stadium instantly intensified.

　Fans, especially those who came specifically for Darko, clapped until their hands were swollen.

　Dark smiled politely in that direction, then raised his hand and waved.

　The fans became even more excited.

　……

　While they were celebrating their victory, Jimmy Abbott was quietly putting away his magic cards.

　Compared to Dark, his magic cards—especially his magic spirit cards—are particularly weak.

　Therefore, upon learning that his opponent was Dark, he immediately devised a tactic to avoid direct confrontation with him.

　However, this tactic ultimately yielded very little result.

　Dark's magical sprites possess too many abilities to clear the field.

　"call--"

　Jimmy exhaled a breath of stale air, turned around, and stepped off the stage.

　Although the duel was short, he had indeed done his best.

　The gap in hard power between the two sides makes the outcome a foregone conclusion.

　But he will not stop there.

　The deeper one goes into the research of magical technology, the more difficult it becomes.

　Dac's progress will slow down sooner or later.

　He will gradually catch up through accumulation, and when the gap between the two narrows to a certain extent, the suspense of the outcome will increase.

　"That day will eventually come!"

　His eyes were exceptionally resolute.

　……

　Dak suddenly turned his head and glanced at Jimmy Abbott's back, pondering for a moment as if he had something on his mind.

　He then put the collected magic cards into his card pack and stepped off the contestant's platform.

　Today's duel was not quite what he had expected.

　The decks built for this purpose have hardly been effective.

　There's simply no way to assess the quality of this deck.

　"Tomorrow! Tomorrow's duel with Emma should give me more room to maneuver. It's been such a long, long time since I last fought her..."

　Thinking this, Dak quickened his pace.

　Expectation shone in his eyes.

　……

　Good morning! Today, even those below the human realm are striving to become living beings!

Chapter 609 The War Between Darkdemon and Emmetheus (10K)

　A few minutes later, Dark walked out of the players' tunnel.

　He walked into the circular area, glanced at Jimmy Abbott surrounded by students from the House of Fools, and couldn't help but smile.

　The heartwarming scene of the teenagers comforting and supporting each other is like a painting.

　"DakDak, what are you laughing at?"

　"They're laughing at how much you can eat."

　"Wow!"

　Now that today's duel was over, Dark did not stay in the dueling arena for too long.

　After speaking with Diana and Rose, he left the Duel Arena and went straight to the Lakeside Pavilion, where he entered Traveller's Town via the pavilion's teleportation hub.

　Even though the dueling arena was raging, the lively atmosphere of Traveller's Street remained undiminished.

　When he arrived at the All-People Duel Club's shop, Leomon was already covered in bags and packages.

　“看来生意不错。”

　Dak stopped outside the shop, watching the flow of people inside, and made up his mind.

　Dark walked through the bustling crowd, casually summoning a few magical spirits to follow him, and then strolled along as if he were shopping.

　He plans to begin attempting to forge the rhinoceros horn in the next day or two. Therefore, purchasing the necessary materials is part of today's plan.

　Along the way, whenever he saw senior students selling materials, he would take a look and buy some at reasonable prices. As a result, he ended up buying more than he intended.

　Dark had originally come to the store to observe the advertising effect of the exhibition match. Now that it was obvious, there was no need to go in and ask.

　So he observed outside for a while longer, and after confirming that it was not just a temporary boom, he left satisfied.

　After that, he focused on collecting materials, only stopping at the cat grass flower shop once when passing by, and spending the rest of his time searching for and collecting materials.

　The advertising effect of yesterday's opening ceremony exhibition match is gradually becoming apparent.

　More and more students are buying duel disks in the store.

　Eve and Irene have a clear division of labor: one is in charge of sales and the other is in charge of bookkeeping. They are extremely busy.

　After all the materials were processed, he took out the rhinoceros horn to soak, and then continued reading.

　I watched it for an entire night.

　By the time he finally bought all the ingredients, it was already dinner time.

　Dark happened to be passing by a restaurant, so he decided to have dinner there with a few magical elves.

　After returning to his dormitory after dinner, he called Miaomiao over, and together they processed the newly purchased materials.

　Because multiple sessions are being held simultaneously, the schedule is actually quite early—but it is still an afternoon session.

　Therefore, Dark had ample time for experiments before that.

　He first turned to the page with the Beast Horn, which contained three thousand items and eight thousand refining methods, and then began to prepare the softening agent according to the Beast Horn's refining method.

　the next morning.

　After getting up early, Dak began his experiments.

　The duel with Emma Metis is scheduled for the eighth match this afternoon.

　He exhaled slightly, then removed the rhinoceros horn from its original soaking solution and placed it into the softener.

　As time slowly passed, an indescribable ambiguity gradually appeared on the surface of the rhinoceros horn.

　The entire "softening" process takes one to two hours.

　Adjusting the softener in the Beast Horn to a level usable by the Rhino Horn is a technically challenging task.

　Although Dark had made a fairly comprehensive deduction last night, it still took longer than expected after the experiment actually started.

　By the time they finally managed to concoct a barely usable softener, it was nearly ten o'clock.

　He remained calm and made quick adjustments. With his high level of mastery of magical language, he completed the fine-tuning of the "magical language" within an hour and successfully adjusted the surface properties of the blank magic card to a suitable state.

　After checking the softening progress of the rhinoceros horn, he began to accelerate its forging.

　After failing twice and wasting a lot of materials, Dark finally pushed the experiment to its final step in the third transmutation experiment.

　In the meantime, Dark quickly concocted a magic potion to be used as "ink" and poured it into the axis of the magic pen, beginning to write the "magical language".

　Despite having the Beast Horn transmutation method as a template, problems still arose during the testing phase after the "magical language" was written.

　However, Dark did not become impatient because of this.

　Moreover, there are inherently many variables in the process of refining materials.

　He first removed the rhinoceros horn from the softener, carefully propped it up, and let the residual slime from the softener slide off its surface naturally until the slime was gone.

　Then, following the pre-designed formula, the materials were placed one by one into the light array of the Heimer alchemy array.
