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

　"busy!"

　It let out a scream, and its body suddenly transformed, changing from Milotic's form into the appearance of a wrestling eagle.

　In this ordinary transformation, it cannot inherit the flying instinct of "Hawkman" and can only rely on its own efforts to flap its wings.

　Therefore, after narrowly dodging the "Shadow Demon's" sneak attack, it began to sway and plummet downwards.

　The real "Hawkman Wrestling" has already launched two attacks on the blue team's Magic Sphere's Life Barrier.

　The magic power of this life barrier was reduced to just over four thousand points.

　Stuart Fern, whose attention was completely off the ball, suddenly noticed that the value of his life points had plummeted. He quickly looked down, frantically mobilized his magic power, and manipulated the magic ball to dodge the attack.

　However, during this process, the blue magic ball once again withstood a full-force blow from "Hawkman".

　The magic power of that life barrier plummeted to only three thousand points!

　……

　The situation changed in an instant, from a seemingly even and intense battle to the current situation where the Blue team is clearly at a disadvantage, all within less than a minute.

　But that's the charm of magical duels.

　The pace is breathtaking, and the outcome is always unpredictable.

　……

　What made Stuart Fern even more upset was that the "Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon," which was clearly in a state of confusion, actually chased after the "Shadow Demon" and pounced on it!

　Seeing the Shadow Demon and the Blue-Eyes Young Dragon locked in combat once again, he knew he couldn't wait any longer!

　"Shadow Demons, attack to the death!"

　With the final command given, Stuart Fowne focused all his energy on manipulating the magic orb to dodge.

　He didn't lift the Magic Ball into the sky; the sky is the domain of the Flying type, and there was no way he could escape the pursuit of "Hawkman Wrestling".

　Under its control, the blue magic ball flew into the labyrinth of "Shadow Tomb". Relying on extreme turns and pulls, it constantly maneuvered against "Hawkman Wrestling" and successfully gained a chance to catch its breath.

　Upon receiving the order, the Shadow Demon immediately launched a fearless attack on the Blue-Eyes Young Dragon—and then, it truly died!

　The Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon regained a sliver of clarity after being severely injured and immediately turned into a dragon egg.

　The previously chaotic situation has now come to an end and is now very clear.

　From Dark's perspective, the only thing Stuart Fern didn't do well was that he didn't order the "Shadow Demon" to kill the "Ghost King in the Pot" who was pinned down by the "Black Gaze" on the spot.

　This extremely ruthless approach is actually the only way to maximize efficiency.

　But Stuart Fowne ultimately did not do so.

　This is a big plus for Darko.

　However, one's senses about people and things do not affect the duel.

　Dark held nothing back and immediately raised "Pride IV".

　"Are you ready, Gatomon?"

　He uttered a single word and then quickly began to chant a normal summoning spell.

　"In the name of Dark Demon, a magical summoning—'Pride IV'!"

　The brilliant light dispelled the darkness.

　The thin black curtain that had spread to the red side's half of the court was completely dispelled.

　"Gatomon" stood under the pillar of light formed by "Pride IV", and its body and limbs rapidly elongated, transforming into a tall humanoid form.

　As four snow-white wings sprouted from its back, a sacred and pure angelic aura spread out.

　It was no secret that Dark Dimon possessed the "angel" ability; the news had even spread throughout the Holy Mystic Academy.

　But every time they witness Angewomon's evolution, it still excites the fans who have become her fans.

　And the "Gatomon" Easter egg model will probably be a bestseller for some time to come.

　……

　When Angewomon successfully evolved, the outer shell of the Shadow Vessel was shattered, finally revealing its inner essence.

　That's not a Magical Spirit Card.

　In fact, the "Wraith Vessel" is a ritual item that combines the functions of a cryptic card and an item card, and can only be triggered after certain conditions are met.

　Once it is successfully triggered, it will give birth to "Shadow Spirits" of different natures depending on the amount of Shadow Power absorbed into its body!

　Although the "Soul Vessel" was not yet full, it had already absorbed a six-star magic spirit, a three-star magic spirit card, and a seven-star magic spirit.

　The fusion of these three shadow powers gave birth to an extremely terrifying "Shadow Spirit"!

　"BOOM!"

　The "Soul Vessel" contains a vortex that emits a dark light.

　The phantom images of the remnants of the "Shadow Gravekeeper," "Shadow Bull," and "Shadow Demon" flashed alternately within the vortex.

　The vortex exploded in an instant, from which the terrifying "ghost" was born!

　Milotic ceased its attack.

　After Ditto reverts to its original form, it stands beside him.

　Angewomon's eyes showed disgust. The two wings extending outward from her left wrist had transformed into the "Holy Bow." She raised her right hand, and an arrow of light gathered between her two fingers, which she then nocked!

　The battle is about to break out.

　……

　The "Wraith" born from the "Wraith Vessel" has a near-human appearance. It is tall and thin, with bull horns on both sides of its head, a golden mask on its face, demon wings on its back, and a short staff half a meter long in its hand.

　That short staff exuded an extremely dangerous aura!

　But there was little joy on Stuart Fowle's face.

　The power absorbed by the "Wraith Artifact" is discounted. This "Wraith," born from the residual shadow power of a six-star magic spirit, a three-star magic spirit, and a seven-star magic spirit after their deaths, is only equivalent to a seven-star magic spirit.

　Although there are differences in quality even among the seven stars, can anything be higher than Dark Dimon's "Angewomon"?

　Stuart Fowne felt unusually heavy-hearted.

　Magical duels are said to have infinite possibilities.

　However, as the duel progresses, the number of magic cards remaining in the deck gradually decreases, and the mage will have a very clear understanding of the extent to which they are capable.

　The so-called possibility is under the premise of having a glimmer of hope.

　If there is not even a glimmer of hope.

　So all that's left is a "do-or-die" situation.

　Stuart Fountain had prepared himself to lose before the match started, but he never expected to find himself in such a desperate situation after the "ghost" had been born.

　"call!"

　He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down as quickly as possible.

　The duel is not over yet, and his mission is not yet complete.

　Betting on a possibility that doesn't exist.

　"Drag that high and mighty angel into the abyss of filth! Dark spirits, shadowy claws!"

　In that instant, Stuart Fern pulled the blue team's magic ball toward "Wraith" and then tried to revive morale.

　The newly born "ghost" floated in mid-air. Upon receiving the command, it raised its short staff high and emitted a hoarse, unpleasant sound, like tearing silk, from beneath its golden mask.

　The sound seemed to be some kind of chanting, but in any case, the short staff in its hand was emitting a dark light.

　"Angelmon" immediately realized that this "ghost" had its sights set on it. It sneered inwardly and abruptly released its grip on the arrow.

　"Boom!"

　The bowstring fell.

　The "Holy Arrow" shot out!

　The lightning bolt, a convergence of light, carried intense electric light and pierced through the entire arena like a pillar of light.

　Just the next second.

　A dark vortex appeared beneath Angewomon's feet, and a withered, terrifying claw suddenly emerged from it, grabbing Angewomon's ankle.

　Then the demonic claw suddenly exerted its force, intending to drag "Angewomon" into the abyss!

　The black substance flowing from the demon's claws spread upwards along Angewomon's delicate skin, gradually staining her calves black.

　A strong suction force also erupted from within the vortex.

　Angewomon, hovering in the air with its four wings, was suddenly pulled down by this attack.

　But as her toes touched the vortex, Angewomon suddenly spread her wings, thus halting her descent.

　Its icy gaze swept downwards, and a blinding white light gathered along its line of sight. The power of light converged beneath its feet, gradually dissolving the "Shadow Claw."

　The "holy arrow" that had already been shot struck the "ghost's" body without the slightest deviation.

　The power of light flowed into the "Wraith's" body through the arrowhead, causing widespread damage after an instantaneous burst.

　The electric current from the arrow crawled up the "ghost's" body, paralyzing it and rendering it unable to move.

　Although the electric current was short-lived, the "ghost" quickly regained its normal mobility.

　But as its lost consciousness gradually returned to normal, its body was already bound by Milotic's long tail and suddenly tightened!

　Pain struck immediately.

　The "ghost" felt as if its bones were being crushed and shattered, and its chest felt suffocated.

　But what truly suffocated him was the astonishing allure of the mind-numbing sensation!

　Although not intentional, it is indeed making the closest possible contact with Milotic.

　Experiencing Milotic's amazing charm up close, its ultimate move, "Beauty," undoubtedly came into play.

　This "ghost" was actually bewitched when they were in deep crisis!

　Despite the "suspension bridge effect," a phenomenon where fear and emotion are confused during times of crisis, the "ghosts" in this situation are clearly not subject to the "suspension bridge effect."

　After being completely captivated, it even had the absurd illusion that the feeling of being crushed was not bad!

　In short, it was completely absorbed, remaining motionless as it endured Milotic's execution.

　This phenomenon even left the attacking Angewomon with nowhere to strike.

　The "heavenly purple light" above its fist repeatedly lit up and then subsided, instantly interrupting the smooth attack that should have followed closely.

　But the next moment, Milotic suddenly released its grip. It left only the end of its tail to continue binding the legs of the "Wraith," and then looked up at Angewomon.

　Angewomon instantly understood, and a beautiful and soft purple glow gradually emanated from her right fist.

　Then it let out a soft shout and threw a punch at the "ghost"!

　"Ultimate move - Heavenly Purple Light!"

　A purple beam of light emanated from the fist and pierced through the "Wraith's" chest cavity in an instant.

　"Heavenly Purple Light" is dedicated to punishing evil.

　Increases damage against demons by 100%, damage against dark attributes by 50%, and damage against evil attributes by 20%.

　This "spirit" is both a demon and a dark being.

　Damage taken increased by 150%!

　Even if the "ghost" has a strong defense, it can only accept its death under this punch.

　……

　"The 'Wraith,' a deadly infection!"

　Stuart Fern's next order came urgently, but it was already too late.

　The "Shadow Spirit's" ultimate skill, "Deadly Infection," releases infectious rays from its eyes, causing nearby targets to be devoured by shadows. The most obvious manifestation of this is a change in race and attributes.

　Targets infected with "Deadly Infection" will transform into "Demon" or "Dark" species during the period of infection.

　If it succeeds in using this move, all of Angewomon's special attacks will be rendered useless!
