Agumon who wants to become Omegamon

"Then let's go now," Huangfu Weilai said in a deep voice.

You can't expect a horse to run without feeding it; there's no such logic in the world. Especially when it's a mutually beneficial situation.

Huangfu Weilai turned her back and, in a corner where Betamon couldn't see her, gave a slight smile, as if to say to Betamon: You might make a killing, but I'll never lose out.

Agumon S glanced at Huangfu Weilai, then at Betamon, confused about what was going on between them. He decided to ignore it; he trusted Huangfu Weilai, that old fox, wouldn't suffer any losses.

"Phew..." Agumon breathed a sigh of relief, at least they wouldn't start fighting immediately.

Chapter Fourteen: Clash

It was a dark and stormy night, perfect for petty theft.

When Betamon led everyone to Erimon's base camp, Erimon's leader stood on a high platform and gave a passionate speech to the Erimon gathered below, boosting morale.

"This is no different from the Erimon in our village, is it?" Agumon, who was hiding nearby and spying, complained.

“It looks like that,” Huangfu Weilai said. The scene felt so familiar, so similar to a certain Elitemon.

Maybe this is talent.

The third person spying, Agumon S, said, "So how should we distribute them? There are about twenty Erimon here."

The fourth eavesdropper, Betamon, spoke up: "I don't care about anything else, but I want the head of that Erimon who's speaking on that stage!"

Huangfu Weilai glanced at the two of them speechlessly. Were they just picking out Elite Beasts like merchandise?

“Then let’s each have six, and the rest can be dealt with by Betamon,” Huangfu Weilai said calmly.

What? You're not going to pick and choose Elekmon like merchandise? These are all weaklings?

Huangfu Future could clearly sense that the strongest leader of the Elitemons was almost on par with himself. This meant that Agumon S or Betamon could easily defeat him.

Does that mean they can easily beat me? Are you kidding me? I fight with my brain, or at the very least, I'll be a damage-dealing mage and fight them in close combat. I'd only do that if I lost my mind.

Hmm! It's definitely not because I couldn't beat them that I became a mage.

Thinking this way, Huangfu Weilai felt much better.

However, as far as mages are concerned, it seems there is still a melee combat skill to learn, so it doesn't seem too far off.

Agumon's S-type ability is purely a racial advantage, something that cannot be learned during the Rookie stage; but Betamon's advantage is genuine experience, which goes without saying—only practice makes perfect.

Betamon stared intently at the leader of Erimon and said, "I have no problem. Let's move out now."

After saying that, he was about to rush out.

"and many more!"

Huangfu Weilai reacted quickly and stopped Betamon from rushing out.

"Give me a reason."

Betamon suppressed his anger and gritted his teeth as he spoke.

Huangfu Weilai crossed his arms and said calmly, "You're too impulsive."

"Don't tell me you need to be careful when dealing with those trash."

"Caution can catch cicadas for a thousand autumns, and careful navigation can ensure a boat sails for ten thousand years."

Huangfu Weilai crossed his arms, his gaze cold and aloof, while Betamon lay on all fours, his eyes deep and thoughtful.

"Hey, Agumon, what do you think happened to them this time?" Agumon S poked Agumon and asked.

"They'll be fine soon, don't worry about them." Agumon rolled its eyes at Agumon S and replied irritably.

In this situation, Huangfu Weilai would never cooperate with Betamon, so he softened his tone and said, "While they're gathered together, let's combine several powerful attacks to attack their center. This will not only take down some of the Elitemon, but also disrupt their formation."

Their formation.

"Heh, you're certainly cautious enough," Betamon said coldly.

"Heh." Huangfu Weilai smiled contemptuously. Of course, he could tell that Betamon was saying he was a coward, but he didn't care.

Huangfu Weilai knows that he has the necessary courage, and that's enough for him. He's not just good at backstabbing people; he can also take up arms and fight. He doesn't need anyone else's approval.

"But it's still really frustrating!" Huangfu Weilai thought to himself.

"I look forward to seeing you unable to use the digital armor." Only thinking this way makes Huangfu Future feel better and gradually feel 'pleasure'.

Huangfu Future and his three Agumon, along with Betamon, agreed on an attack time and began their attack.

Before any of the Elitemon could react, the attack had already arrived—

"Lightning strike!"

"Small flame!"

"Small-scale blasting!"

"Hoo..." Huangfu Weilai took a deep breath, energy surging within his body, gradually spreading to his mouth, his body temperature rising, heat accumulating in his mouth, and then... released!

"Small-scale blasting!"

"This is!!" ×3

Huangfu Future used a technique that surpassed "Small Flame," and its power alone, even without considering the total power, exceeded that of Agumon S's "Small Blast."

This is the result of Huangfu Future's painstaking research. He has finally found the accumulation point of "small flame" and can successfully use "small explosion".

Of course, the most important factor was the generous contributions of various Digimon along the way, which, combined with the power of rewriting, led to our success.

Four attacks simultaneously struck the center of the Elite Beast, detonating them in quick succession.

boom--

Amidst the raging flames, flashes of lightning occasionally streaked across the surface, generating immense energy that instantly strangled the few Elite Beasts at the center.

Only the Erimon, who was caught in the blast and fell down screaming in agony in the center, and the Erimon on the outer perimeter, who was unharmed but looked utterly shocked, remained.

The leader of the Elite Beasts on the stage fell silent for a moment, like a duck being strangled, before erupting again like a volcano.

"Who is it?!"

The leader of the Elite Beasts' purple face began to flush red, and its crimson eyes burned with a raging fury as if dripping blood.

Looking at his fallen kin below the stage and the data resulting from their deaths, his anger surged even more fiercely. But it was quickly suppressed by the leader of the Elite Beasts, who began to organize the remaining panicked Elite Beasts, maintain their formation, and get into position.

"Oh? He wasn't blinded by anger. He must be someone important."

A sound suddenly came from the dark forest—it was Huangfu Weilai's voice.

The leader of the Elitemon suddenly turned its head and stared intently in the direction from which the sound came. The Elitemon's formation was momentarily disrupted, demonstrating the extent of the shadow cast by Huangfu Future and the others' attack.

Then, a cold voice came in response to Huangfu Weilai's words.

"Of course he's someone important, otherwise I wouldn't have come with you."

"That voice!" The leader of the Elitemon widened its eyes, then gritted its teeth and said, "Betamon!!"

The moon finally emerged from behind the clouds, shining on the forest and on... the Beta Beast that was gradually emerging.

The emerging Betamon and Huangfu Future were surrounded by the radiance scattered from the moon, making it seem as if the two Digimon themselves were emitting light, exuding a sense of holiness.

As for why only Huangfu Future and Betamon appeared, it's because while Huangfu Future attracted attention, Agumon and Agumon S flanked from behind, planning to ambush them during the later melee.

"Wow! Boss and the others look so high-class." Agumon, who had moved to the back, looked at Huangfu Future and the other two surrounded by moonlight and said enviously.

"Ahem, don't worry about appearances. We're about to go, so focus." Agumon S said, trying to sound serious, but that didn't stop his eyes from wandering around.

At this time-

"You dare show your face in front of me? Have you found an accomplice, Betamon!" the leader of Erimon said menacingly.

"Hmph!" Betamon sneered. "Yes, so what!"

Chapter Fifteen: Blue Lightning and Purple Lightning

"How about that? Hahahaha." The leader of the Elite Beasts laughed, but his eyes held no smile, only unchanging coldness and rage.

"This time you won't escape! You guys go deal with that Agumon, I'll take care of Betamon!"

Before he could finish speaking, the leader of the Elitemon, its body crackling with purple lightning, appeared in front of Betamon in the blink of an eye, raising its nine tails and launching a nimble yet terrifying attack interwoven with purple electricity.

"The Dark Tail".

At the very moment the leader of the Elite Beasts attacked, Huangfu Future's energy surged, covering his feet, and he stomped down hard.

boom--

The ground has sunk into a hole the size of a fist.

A flash of fire appeared beneath Huangfu Weilai's feet. Using the recoil, he dodged the electric shock from the leader of the Elite Beasts and charged toward the Elite Beast formation.

Betamon reacted, its entire body crackling with blue electricity, greatly increasing its physical strength, and once again displaying the posture it had when fighting against Alienmon.

A cold glint flashed in Betamon's eyes, "Thunderbolt - Modified".

Betamon is an amphibious Digimon. Currently, its short limbs are its biggest weakness, but this does not mean that Betamon is weak in close combat.

As a creature partly 'fish', Betamon possesses a dorsal fin, an organ born for aquatic life. In water, it serves a balancing function, while on land, it becomes Betamon's sharpest weapon in close combat.

this is--

"Dormal fin cut!"

Like a sharp blade slicing through steel, it made a 'whoosh' sound as it cut through the air, accompanied by blue lightning, colliding with the Nine-Tailed Fusion - Dark Tail of the Elite Beast leader.

Instant——

"Boom!!"

“Sizzle!!”

The purple electric current and the blue electric light collided violently, producing a loud sound.

The surrounding area was torn apart by the indiscriminate discharge of electricity from the two people, leaving deep cracks.

Meanwhile, as the leader of Elitemon and Betamon were locked in combat, Huangfu Future rushed to the front of Elitemon's formation and unleashed a 'small flame' as a sign of respect.

"Don't panic, let's use our ultimate moves together."

"Yes, he's just one person, don't be afraid."

"Stop it! Stop it now!"

"He's coming!!"

Apart from a few Elitemon that could take command, the rest of the Elitemon were terrified by the powerful fire attack.

Clearly, they all mistakenly believed that it was Huangfu Weilai's fire attack alone.

However, not all of the Elitemon in the formation were useless; some Elitemon reacted and organized an attack.

"Interference with lightning strike!" ×n

Several purple electric currents combined to detonate Huangfu Future's attack in mid-air.

"what!"

"hateful!"

The storm generated by the extremely close-range detonation instantly overturned the formation of the Elite Beasts, and this was Huangfu Future's target.

Taking advantage of the storm's airflow disrupting their formation, Huangfu Future focused his energy on his claws, specifically targeting a few of the Elite Beasts that could act as commanders.

Huangfu Future charged into the Elite Beast formation like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, surrounded by delicious little lambs that he could easily devour.

Huangfu Weilai didn't get away unscathed. Entering the Elite Beast formation, she wasn't surrounded and killed. Instead, she displayed superb close-combat skills; her flaming claws could take down an opponent with a single swing.

Elite Beast.

"Damn it, how can we possibly win?"

"Damn it!"

"This is the same close combat technique as the King."

Faced with Huangfu Future's ability to defeat them one by one, the morale of the Elite Beasts was lower than ever before.

But Elitemon are Elitemon; when faced with an enemy they cannot fight back against and unable to escape, they become ferocious.
