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

　As for the testing experiments on "Paradise IV? Moon", only the two "Dorum Mesia" that accompany "Dorum Baruto" have not yet been conducted.

　However, considering that the most that could be done was to evolve "Dronmecia" from a five-star "Dronki" to a six-star "Dronki", Dark decided to test it again later.

　In short, the possibility of using "Paradise IV: Moon" on "Dorummesia" was extremely low, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

　……

　One p.m.

　Dark entered the library with "Renamon" and immediately saw Pandora, the senior student behind the counter.

　Although Pandora Drogon was at work, it felt more like she was studying in a different place. She was currently deep in thought, a rare sight for her, perhaps because she had encountered a difficult problem.

　In the seat she used to sit in, now stood the "Pure White Dragon Princess," who had awakened her sentience.

　At this moment, the "Pure White Dragon Princess" was merely pretending to be dull, acting like a magical sprite with an intelligence level close to three, registering entry and exit on behalf of Pandora.

　It wasn't until Dak walked right up to it that it gave a small smile, its eyes sparkling with intelligence.

　Dark nodded to it, then took the registration form and wrote down his and "Renamon's" names.

　The latter's actions made "Pure White Dragon Princess"'s eyes light up, and her gaze toward Dark became even gentler.

　Even the "Fox Beast" following closely behind Dark gave it a cold look.

　"Hmm, Dark, what brings you here today?"

　Pandora looked up and asked casually.

　Although they were busy with their studies and didn't contact each other often, they did exchange text messages because of the "access card" in the secret passage.

　As for the recently popular "Hanafuda" (flower cards), she seems to have paid no attention to it because she is too busy.

　This shows that "Hanafuda" has not yet truly reached every corner of the academy.

　Dark said, "I brought 'Renamon' with me to look for something."

Chapter 687

　【Ball-Ball Sea Lion】→ "Floral Sea Lion"→ "Sirius Sea Lion"!

　The first two forms of "Popeye" are Water-type, and it only gains the Fairy-type after it finally evolves into "Primarina".

　Before that, the "fairy" attribute was like a hidden talent that lay dormant within it.

　Based on normal logic, "Pokémon" needs a "Sin Card" with "Jealousy" to evolve into "Pokémon", and then "Elysium" is added to "Jealousy" to finally evolve into "Primarina".

　Therefore, it is difficult to achieve initial evolution by simply using the "Great Sin Card" of "Paradise".

　Dac's ongoing experiments have proven this point.

　But everything requires a quantitative change to lead to a qualitative change.

　It is undeniable that the "Ballball Sea Lion" does possess the "bliss" factor.

　Now we need to see if the power of this "Paradise IV: Moon" can be unleashed!

　"mo!"

　When Dak called "Ball Ball Sea Lion" to his side, it timidly showed its surprise.

　As one of the characters that consistently rank at the bottom, "Popeye the Sea Lion" has never been neglected, but when people talk about battles, he can never get a word in edgewise.

　Over time, it developed some feelings of inferiority, and when it was alone in the pool, it would secretly look at the other magical spirits with envy.

　While the "Hawkman" who was born at the same time also had similar troubles, that guy was single-minded and was always blinded by passion, so he didn't have time to think about these things.

　Conversely, the "Ball-Ball Sea Lion" is meticulous and extremely sensitive.

　The fact that it didn't develop feelings of "jealousy" under these circumstances is simply because Dak Dimon's family values ​​are so upright!

　Therefore, when Dark called it to its side, it was still hesitant and confused.

　As Dark observed the micro-expressions of "Ball-Ball Sea Lion," he sighed inwardly, realizing that he had indeed neglected the magical spirits due to his busy research schedule.

　"Come on, let's see if we can evolve."

　He patted the head of "Ballball Sea Lion" and took out "Paradise IV: Moon".

　"mo?"

　"Ballball Sea Lion" asked, still confused.

　I suppose I felt that this "Paradise IV" was not suitable for me.

　"Give it a try, maybe it'll work?"

　Dak then encouraged him.

　“mo…”

　"Ballball Sea Lion" lowered its head and nodded almost imperceptibly.

　Dak then brought "Paradise IV: Moon" in front of it and summoned it aloud.

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

　As the summoning conclusion ended, pink light emanated from the card art of "Elysium IV: Moon".

　Bathed in this radiance, "Ballball Sea Lion" is as if draped in a starry veil, making its already adorable appearance even more elfin.

　Dark carefully sensed its energy changes and discovered that it was indeed absorbing the energy of "Paradise"—the emblem of "Paradise" was gradually appearing on its forehead.

　This is conclusive evidence that it possesses the potential for "ecstasy".

　Although it is relatively slow, power is gathering within it.

　"Momo?"

　Seemingly sensing its impending transformation, "Ballball Sea Lion's" previously hesitant expression suddenly turned to surprise. It spread its arms, stood upright with its tail fin, and radiated a dazzling glow.

　"Elysium IV: Moon" is causing it to evolve into its next form!

　All the magical spirits that had gathered were drawn to the light; they clearly hadn't expected that "Ball-Ball Sea Lion" would actually succeed.

　Milotic, who has just joined this family, also has a bright and sparkling look in its eyes.

　It felt an extremely affectionate connection with the "Ball Ball Sea Lion".

　……

　The subsequent evolutionary process went extremely smoothly.

　"Elysium IV: Moon" successfully triggered the potential of "Ballball Sea Lion", enabling it to successfully evolve.

　When the light of evolution finally faded, "Ballball Sea Lion" had grown noticeably taller, as if it had skipped from kindergarten to elementary school. Both its outward appearance and inner temperament had changed.

　Its eyes widened, radiating vitality, and it clearly regained its confidence.

　Compared to when it was called "Ball Ball Sea Lion", it has more human-like features.

　Not only did the wavy choker around her neck transform into a skirt, but two braid-like features also appeared on her head.

　Her originally dark blue skin tone has become lighter and more layered.

　In short, it has become more beautiful.

　When Dak saw its final posture take shape, he felt a sense of unease.

　"I see. So, 'Elysium IV? Moon' has largely had the effect of 'Sin III' on Dewpie."

　He picked up the magic card and examined it briefly.

　As expected, the "Flower Sea Lion" that evolves from "Ball Sea Lion" is a five-star magical spirit belonging to the second tier.

　To his slight surprise, the "Flower Seal" card's attribute wasn't simply Water, but rather [Water + Fairy]!

　This change made him look at Milotic.

　Both changed from a simple water attribute to a water + fairy type, and both exuded a similar aura.

　"mo!"

　Suddenly, "Ballball Sea Lion" hugged Dark's leg, looked up at him with teary eyes.

　Dak then squatted down, nuzzled it affectionately, and congratulated it, saying, "Looks like it worked!"

　The sea lion, Ball Ball, then shyly revealed a blush on its cheeks.

　……

　After dawdling for a while, Dark picked up the "Flower Sea Lion" magic card and input magic to get feedback.

　Figure

　Card Name: Flowery Sea Lion

　[Type: Spirit Card]

　【grade:】

　[Race: Bird-Beast]

　[Type: Water/Fairy]

　【Magic Power: 2200】

　[Attack: 2300]

　[Defense: 2100]

　[Special Moves: Singing, Absorbing Kiss, and Bubble Aria]

　The "Flower-Faced Sea Lion" has very balanced stats. It doesn't have many weaknesses, nor does it have any outstanding features. The "Elysium IV: Moon" did not make its stats too high.

　But the fact that it was able to evolve was already an unexpected event, so naturally, we can't ask for anything more.

　Dark turned his attention to the special moves of "Flower Sea Lion".

　"Popeye" has two special moves: "Wet Voice" and "Charm Voice". Although they look like a combination of passive and active moves, they are actually not very useful.

　After evolving into the "Flower Sea Lion", it finally had a breakthrough in its special move.

　It has three ultimate skills and has been upgraded from a blue card to an orange card.

　These three ultimate skills belong to three different attributes.

　The first ultimate skill, "Singing," belongs to the Normal type.

　[Singing: The Flower Lion's song is soothing and beautiful that it can subtly lull its opponent into a sleep.]

　"Singing" is undoubtedly a very powerful and versatile special move.

　Dark's strong impression of this special move comes from a certain "Jiggling" that would draw on people's faces with a marker when it was angry.

　With this ultimate move, Dark will no longer need Devimon's "Devil Hypnosis" if it wants to fall asleep quickly.

　Clearly, falling asleep to the song of the "Flower Sea Lion" is a more pleasant experience.

　However, in reality, it might take some time for "singing" to take effect. And it won't automatically wake up like it does in the game after one to three rounds.

　People who fall into a "sleep state" because of "singing" will generally sleep until they wake up naturally.

　However, in contrast, there are also many factors that can wake a person from a "sleep state".

　After all, "singing" triggering "sleep" is not a curse.

　If I had to put it in a nutshell, it would only be considered a deeper level of sleep.

　A strong stimulus can naturally wake a person from a deep sleep.

　In short, to fully master and utilize the ultimate skill of "singing," one must conduct detailed tests on aspects such as these.

　If you can master it, its applications will be quite extensive!

　Dark took a deep breath and looked at the "Flower-Faced Sea Lion's" second special move - "Absorbing Kiss"!

　"Absorbing Kiss" is a special move belonging to the Fairy type.

　【Kiss of Absorption: The Flowery Sea Lion throws a kiss at the target, absorbing the target's life force (mana) and restoring half of the life force (mana) dealt as damage.】

　In the Pokémon games, "Sucking Kiss" has a power of 50, only one-third that of "Bubbles Cannon." Therefore, it is far from being considered a powerful special move.

　However, its endurance is quite impressive; it can absorb half of the magic power that causes damage, which is excellent.

　However, compared to "singing," it doesn't stand out as much.
