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

　But once a person falls from the peak to the bottom of the valley, if they don't succumb to despair, they can only seek change.

　Dak had thought that Angus Jeffrey might have already learned to work hard.

　Now that he has launched another challenge, does it mean that he has, through hard work, mastered the strength he believes he can win?

　Based on this conjecture, Darke decisively accepted Angus Jeffrey's challenge!

　However, after that, the Duel Club did not schedule Angus Jeffrey's challenge for that weekend, but instead postponed it to the following week.

　This week, apart from a third-year student randomly matched by the Duel Club, Dark's main opponent is a fourth-year student from the Noble Academy named Stuart Fuen!

　Although Stuart Fern is only a fourth-year student, his strength is beyond doubt. His "Shadow" series of cards is known for its unpredictability and is difficult to defend against.

　Dark has not had any contact with him since last year's Easter Duel Festival.

　Eight months should be enough time for it to transform.

　Not to be underestimated!

　……

　After the discussion ended, Dak left the office alone.

　His partnership with Professor Lily hadn't disbanded, but the professors still had a tea party to attend... as if everything had returned to normal after that massive investigation.

　The students, of course, observed the professors' behavior.

　Based on this, the idea that the investigation was over had already spread throughout the castle.

　The patient, Fern Morse, finished his treatment on Monday afternoon and returned to class after only one more day of rest.

　Even though he had no memories related to the "Cerebrolysmic Demon," he had a general understanding of it after leaving the infirmary.

　However, he still couldn't accept the fact that he had lost to Darko Dimon, and he became even more diligent than before.

　Although the rules of the "Golden Cup" only allow students to challenge the same person once, those who advance to the round of 16 through the qualifying rounds will have the opportunity to face Darko Dimon again!

　After this match, Fern Morse had already determined that Dark would definitely make it to the round of 16.

　He wants to prove himself again on a bigger stage!

　……

　Time slips through our fingers, but youth will not waste it.

　……

　Darko Dimon temporarily put aside the matters involved. But instead of returning to his dormitory, he went straight to the library.

　Some of this week's assignments required researching information to complete.

　He pushed open the door and saw Ms. Bella behind the counter, and was slightly disappointed.

　Ms. Bella moved the registration form in front of him and said with a kind smile, "That child asked for leave, saying he had some experiments to do."

　Dark looked slightly embarrassed and said, "I wish her research goes well."

　He then spent the entire afternoon in the library, finishing all his assignments for the first three days of the week. He stayed a while longer until dinner time before finally leaving the library.

　After dinner, he immediately returned to his dormitory and began a new round of research.

　On Monday of this week, he purchased new "magical beast fur" from Professor Kazel, and has been conducting research on the "magical beast" transmutation and "secondary transmutation" for the past two days.

　The research process went relatively smoothly, and he obtained his second three-star "Fantasy Beast: Ditto" and his third two-star "Fantasy Beast: Fantasy Sheep"!

　In reality, only three Spellbeast cards have truly succeeded in "secondary refinement": "Spellbeast: Eevee," "Spellbeast: Ditto," and "Spellbeast: Sheep."

　Therefore, research on "secondary alchemy" still has a long way to go.

　However, after warming up a bit tonight, he temporarily put aside his research on "secondary alchemy" and summoned the "Soul of the Moon Goddess".

　The "Soul of the Moon Goddess" was already prepared. It sat on the chair with a dignified expression, and the aura of the Moon Goddess was faintly visible.

　"let's start."

　Dark took a deep breath and said.

　The "Soul of the Moon Goddess" nodded slightly, raised her hands, and brought them together in front of her chest, thus manifesting the "Mirror of the Moon Goddess".

　This mirror, which can absorb moonlight and convert its power into magical reserves, is now radiating divine power.

　The "Moon Goddess Soul" stores the "Moon Goddess Version of Bliss" collected from the hearts of students through "Hanafuda" in this "Moon Goddess Mirror".

　Although these "blisses" are called "the Moon Goddess's version of bliss," they are actually collected from mortals and cannot be considered true products of the "Moon Goddess."

　This is similar to Dark's own "bliss," which, strictly speaking, cannot be considered a product of "demons."

　After all, he was just a demon god in reserve.

　……

　As a faint silver glow appeared on the surface of the "Moon Goddess Mirror," the "Soul of the Moon Goddess" solemnly said, "It's ready."

　Dark immediately picked up the magic brain dropper, touched the silver light to absorb it, and then continuously dripped it into the "mind bottle".

　The amount drawn by the magic dropper each time is very limited. Therefore, this is a task that requires a great deal of patience.

　A single "Advanced Mind Bottle" can only store a dose of thirty times.

　Fortunately, he had enough "Advanced Mind Bottles". After dividing them into six bottles, he finally absorbed and stored more than 180 points of "Lunar Elysium".

　The "Moon Goddess Version of Elysium" stored in the "Moon Goddess Mirror" suddenly decreased by more than half, causing its silvery glow to dim.

　"All right."

　Dak has temporarily stopped; these three bottles of "Lunar Elysium" should last him for a while.

　The "Soul of the Moon Goddess" quickly put away the "Mirror of the Moon Goddess." The expression on her face was strikingly similar to that of a child handing over part of their New Year's money to their parents.

　Dak pursed his lips, unable to suppress a smile.

　But he quickly turned his attention to studying the "Lunar version of Elysium".

　From this moment forward, every experiment will have a significant impact on his future plans.

　First, there's the issue of its nature.

　He judged that the "Moon Goddess Version of Elysium" absorbed by relying on the "Soul of the Moon Goddess" as the terminal was more suitable for him than the "Moon Goddess Version of Elysium" absorbed from the "Statue of the Moon Goddess". Therefore, the "Great Sin Card" made in this way would not cause the magical spirit to go out of control after evolution.

　But that's just a judgment; further experiments are needed to confirm it.

　The experimental method is also very simple; you only need to use it to refine the simplest "Paradise I? Moon".

　By observing the effects of "Elysium I? Moon" on a magical spirit, this can be determined very intuitively.

　But after careful consideration, Dak directly performed a "Bliss III? Month" refining!

　He now has two "Paradise III? Moon Modified" and one uncontrolled "Paradise III? Moon", the latter of which has been gradually phased out, and another "Paradise III".

　According to the rules of Magic Duel, a deck can only contain three Magic Cards with the same name.

　"Paradise III? Moon" and "Paradise III" have significant differences in their effects. They are not the same as "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" and "Blue-Eyes White Dragon".

　However, "Paradise III? Moon Modified" and "Paradise III? Moon" are cards with the same name, and both are defaulted to "Paradise III? Moon".

　Therefore, he can add another "Elysium III: Moon" to his deck.

　Considering that "Elysium I" and "Elysium II" have already rotated out of the Standard format, there was no need to specially craft a Magic Card for them. Therefore, he chose to directly craft "Elysium III: Moon".

　In fact, his subsequent plans were all based on the premise that the "Moon Goddess version of Elysium" absorbed by the "Soul of the Moon Goddess" could perfectly match its own nature, and "still out of control" was not one of his options.

　……

　From preparation to completion, it only took half an hour for the long-awaited "Great Sin Card" to be successfully created.

　A total of 32 points of "Moon Goddess Version of Elysium" were consumed.

　Dark had another "Elysium III? Moon" in his hand.

　"The quality of the 'Lunar Version of Elysium' varies, and a 3:1 quality ratio cannot be guaranteed."

　He had a slight understanding of the situation, so he summoned Impmon and prepared to experiment on it.

　The little devilmon, which had been waiting for orders, immediately flew down from the bird stand and landed on a corner of the lab table.

　"In the name of Dark Demon, a magical summoning—'Elysium III: Moon'."

　After a rapid chant, a soft silver glow fell from the sky, and a pink light illuminated the face of Devimon.

　As the skull pattern on its head transformed into the emblem of "Elysium," the light of evolution engulfed its entire body.

　When the light faded, the little Devimon standing on the lab table transformed into "BlackGatomon"!

　BlackGatomon's eyes darted around, and it suddenly leaped up, landing with a "thud" on Dark's face.

　Dak quickly removed it, but had already determined that it was not out of control.

　This made him smile, his face beaming with pleasure.

　……

　"There is no problem in terms of its nature."

　He wrote this line in his notebook and then decisively began the second round of experiments.

　This second round of experiments is highly likely to be a waste, but it must be carried out.

　That was the experiment of "Paradise IV: Moon"!

　Although he has not yet found a breakthrough in the creation of "Great Sin IV", even a half-finished "Great Sin IV" can greatly enhance his lineup.

　Whether it's "Magicalmon: Impmon", "Magicalmon: Agumon", or "Gatomon", they can all use this to break through to the third tier.

　Based on this, Renamon, also a Digimon, also has the opportunity to break through and evolve into the Ultimate form Priestmon!

　Of course, it is also possible that, like "Lion Beast", it will stop at the six-star threshold.

　In short, given the abundance of "Lunar version of Elysium" available today, Dark will inevitably have to give it a try, regardless of the outcome.

　He calmed himself down and quickly began preparations.

　This time it took even longer, more than forty minutes from preparation to completion, before the final result was achieved.

　"Consumed a full 110 points of 'Moon Goddess Version of Elysium'!"

　Looking at the remaining two bottles of "Lunar Elysium," Darke indeed wore a very satisfied smile.

　Because he succeeded.

　"Paradise IV: Moon" successfully forged!

　Although he clearly sensed during the forging process that the quality of the "Lunar Version of Elysium" was no longer keeping up with the intensity of the "Elysium IV," he ultimately managed to barely reach base by increasing the amount of material, successfully forging this semi-finished "Elysium IV? Lunar"!

　"So, semi-finished products also have their advantages."

　Dak couldn't help but sigh.

　His intuition was already very clear.

　If the final result is a finished product, then this transmutation experiment is likely to fail.

　Perhaps when "Soul of the Moon Goddess I" absorbs more primordial divinity and transforms into "Soul of the Moon Goddess II", the "Moon Goddess version of Elysium" it absorbs and transforms will be able to keep up with the quality required for the finished product of "Elysium IV".

　But it certainly won’t work now.

　Based on this, Dak quickly came up with an idea for subsequent policies.

　"If I can continue to harvest 'Moon Goddess Version of Bliss,' I will try to use it to refine semi-finished 'Bliss IV' or magic spirit cards and item cards related to 'Bliss.' All the 'Bliss' I produce myself can be used for reserves!"

　"However, at present, it still needs to be verified whether the 'Moon Goddess Version of Elysium' can successfully bear fruit for use in the creation of the Magical Spirit Card?"

　"If all goes well, then the entire circuit will be complete!"

　Dark's brain was working at high speed, completely ignoring the eager anticipation of Little Devimon.

　He set the "Paradise IV? Moon" card aside and immediately began preparations for creating the Magical Spirit Card.

　The little devil immediately turned around, secretly annoyed, and flew back to the bird stand to continue observing Dark's experiment while hanging upside down.

　It originally thought it would immediately obtain a brand new evolutionary form, but unexpectedly Dark did not immediately conduct the experiment.

　……

　After a moment's thought, Dak chose Dragon Grass from among the many cat grasses, then took it to the balcony. He first used the magic dropper to inject "Lunar Elysium" into the insect branch, then held it and sucked on the insect branch.

　If a person is not ruthless, he cannot stand firm!

　The most visible material he possesses related to "Paradise" is the dragon blood of the fairy-type "Rainbow Dragon".
