Of course, if he truly wanted to use it for transmutation, he had another method.
That was to shatter this dagger!
As long as it was shattered, it would turn from a weapon with self-awareness into pure precious material.
The cost of transmutation would then be greatly reduced.
However, in that case, he would most likely be unable to transmute a [Honedge].
Though [Honedge] looked like a sword, it was actually a dual-attribute Magic Spirit of [Steel Type] + [Ghost Type].
Without the "Ghost" element, it would be difficult to transmute successfully.
Furthermore, after [Honedge] evolved into [Doublade] and [Aegislash], both would possess shields.
Therefore, to transmute a [Honedge], he also needed the element of a "shield."
At the mention of "shield,"
Dark could not help glancing in Meowth's direction, but quickly withdrew his gaze.
"Come to think of it, I seem to already possess the core requirements for transmuting a [Honedge]."
"If that still isn't enough, that piece of living metal might be able to make up for what's missing."
He suddenly realized that the only barrier remaining between himself and [Honedge] was "insufficient mana."
And "insufficient mana" could be remedied in many ways.
For example, the most common [Mana Recovery Potion], or something else that was more efficient.
Unfortunately, Miltank's [Moomoo Milk] essentially restored life force rather than mana. Otherwise, he would not need to worry about insufficient mana at all.
Then the final question was which [Great Sin] he should use as the guide.
As Dark considered the feasibility of transmuting [Honedge], he took out Gatomon's Magitech Card to inspect it.
After feeding in a thread of mana and receiving feedback, he discovered that Gatomon's attributes had indeed been greatly enhanced while holding that dagger.
Gatomon's base attack was 1900, and with the blessing of the [Holy
