The Villain Young Master Just Wants to Live a Buddhist Life 43

Initial estimates suggest that this "Bliss 1" has likely reached the limit of what a single drop of a Great Sin can achieve.

Additionally, after Eevee-chan returned to normal, its intelligence level rose to 3.0.

Small.

As for Devimon, there is no way to judge.

Dark recorded the various data points with satisfaction.

He then paused the experiment.

In the afternoon, he once again used the Magic Brain Dropper to extract a drop of "Pride" and tried placing the tip of the dropper near the mouth of the Meow Meow Grass. However, the Meow Meow Grass seemed to have no interest in the dropper and refused to take a single sip.

Not wanting to waste it, Dark injected the drop of "Pride" back into the Insect Branch.

Unexpectedly, the Meow Meow Grass acted as if it had suddenly caught the scent of something delicious, meowing as it pounced on the branch to suck it up.

Following that, the sprout on its head grew visibly to the naked eye!

Dark observed and recorded the process, feeling exceptionally delighted.

Seventeen minutes after the Meow Meow Grass finished absorbing that drop of "Pride," the sprout on its head stopped growing, but it had already developed into a tiny flower bud!

By the afternoon of the weekend, Dark extracted another drop of "Pride" and injected it into the Insect Branch.

The Meow Meow Grass, as usual, pressed its two fleshy paws onto the head of the Insect Branch, sucking vigorously!

The flower bud on its head grew larger and larger!

Gradually, it actually grew to the point of being on the verge of blooming!

Dark excitedly recorded the data: "At this rate, one more drop should be enough for it to bloom, and two more might even allow it to bear fruit!"

But after finishing his notes, he suddenly realized that his quota for extracting "Pride" this month had been exhausted, and he instantly wilted.

"Meow-woo—"

"Meow, meow, meow!"

In the blink of an eye, it was Monday morning.

The Little Magisters, having rested for two and a half days, threw themselves back into their busy daily studies.

In the first Summoning class, Professor Sylph finally began teaching one of the advanced techniques of Normal Summoning—Sacrificial Summoning!

So-called Sacrificial Summoning is a special summoning technique born from the excessively long summoning times required for Magic Spirit Cards of four stars and above.

Magic Spirit Cards are divided by star level: the first three stars are the first tier, four to six stars are the second tier, seven to nine stars are the third tier, and above nine stars is the fourth tier.

For every tier ascended, the casting time and cooldown of a Normal Summon increase by one level.

The Normal Summoning time for the first three stars can be compressed to a maximum of 3 seconds.

By the fourth star, it starts at 1 minute.

By the seventh star, it requires at least 30 minutes.

For anything above nine stars, it starts at 3 hours, and some Magic Spirits even require days and nights, or even months of continuous casting to be summoned!

In the early days of magic technology development, even if Magisters possessed high-level Magic Spirit Cards, it was very difficult to summon them in a direct confrontation.

Every time a high-tier Magic Spirit was summoned, a large number of personnel were required for protection.

It wasn't until about thirty years ago that a special summoning technique, which originated from an unknown source, came to light. Magisters could summon high-tier Magic Spirits by sacrificing low-tier ones, successfully shortening the summoning time.

However, every sacrifice caused irreparable damage to the low-tier Magic Spirit Cards.

It wasn't until modern times that this technology was innovated, no longer causing damage to low-tier Magic Spirit Cards, further shortening the time for Sacrificial Summoning, and officially naming it "Sacrificial Summoning."

The core of Sacrificial Summoning lies in the accumulation of star levels.

+=

++=

It has nothing to do with the number of cards; it is purely the accumulation of star levels.

The necessary criterion is that to summon a third-tier Magic Spirit, there must be at least one second-tier Magic Spirit among the sacrifices, and so on.

Professor Sylph demonstrated in class, taking a total of 12 seconds to summon a six-star Magic Spirit, leaving the Little Magisters in awe.

Sacrificial Summoning and Normal Summoning do not share a cooldown, and the minimum casting time and minimum cooldown are also 3 seconds.

It was also at this moment that Dark realized his 8-second summoning time was far from enough.

Don't be arrogant or rash!

Just as he was skillfully daydreaming, he suddenly noticed that Victor, who was also sitting in the back row, seemed a bit off.

→Is he using the Flower Card to scan people?

Chapter 56 White God Opens the Magic Box

Without the burden of debt, White God seemed to have lost his soul.

Although he kept saying he would change, finishing his homework was clearly the absolute limit of his efforts.

In this world, there was nothing more delightful than Magic Chess!

If there really was something else, it might just be this "Forbidden Love" card in his hand!

White God carefully aimed the Flower Card at the students in the front row.

After three consecutive nights of prayer, he had finally received a revelation from the "Goddess."

A single drop of divine water falling from the sky had caused "Forbidden Love" to undergo a further upgrade.

As long as "Forbidden Love" was aimed at a person's head, it would display their portrait and certain attributes on the card face, namely:

[Name:]

[Rarity:]

[Affection:]

Although White God hadn't discovered any other functions, this was already interesting enough, wasn't it?

"White God, what are you doing?" Robert whispered.

White God aimed "Forbidden Love" at Robert and said smugly, "A new toy!"

[Name: Robert Broheim]

[Rarity: R]

[Affection: 80]

White God placed "Forbidden Love" on the desk: "Look, Robert, your rarity is R! And your affection is 80."

Robert was confused: "I know what rarity is, but what does R mean? And this affection..."

White God: "I don't know what R means either, but most people are N. You're very special, Robert!"

"Really?" Robert immediately beamed, "Then this affection..."

White God then whispered: "It might be the level of affection for me. Most of them are below 50. Robert, you really are my best friend!"

Robert smiled confidently; he was particularly confident about this one thing: "What about Emma? Have you scanned Emma?"

White God shook his head: "It's too far, and there are people blocking the way."

Emma was sitting in the very front row, so of course he couldn't scan her.

However, White God soon thought of someone else, and he couldn't help but look toward the seat by the window in the last row.

Robert noticed his gaze and became interested as well: "Want to try?"

White God nodded: "You help me keep an eye on Professor Sylph, and I'll try."

Dark happened to look over and caught him red-handed.

White God quickly put down "Forbidden Love" and pretended to whisper to Robert.

Once Dark turned his head away and stopped paying attention to them, White God flipped open "Forbidden Love" and took a look.

[Name: Dark Dimon]

[Rarity: UR]

[Affection: 45]

White God was slightly stunned and sighed: "45. I really didn't expect Dark's affection for me to be higher than many others."

Robert: "After all, your parents are the Kingdom's Twin Swords. Perhaps he also wants to be friends with you?"

White God: "..."

After a moment of silence, White God suddenly noticed a golden icon appearing in the top right corner of the card.

He reached out to touch it, and a line of text appeared beneath the icon: Unlocked at 80 Affection.

"Ring-a-ling!"

The Summoning Technique class came to an end amidst the scolding of Professor Sylph, and Robert, who had been caught and had points deducted in the final minute, let his head droop.

Dark glanced over in that direction, then put his books into his bag, preparing to head straight to the classroom for the next lesson.

It was said that following "Magic Phantom Beast," Professor Kazel would teach the students a widely applicable, universal method for crafting Magic Spirit Cards in this class.

Dark was very interested in this.

And it seemed that most of the first-years were very interested as well.

After all, to join the Duel Club, one must possess 20 Magitech Cards.

If one could master the universal crafting method for Magic Spirit Cards, one could assemble a full set of 20 Magitech Cards at a relatively fast pace.

→No one doesn't love dueling!

Dark couldn't help but quicken his pace.

But he had only walked halfway from the Summoning Technique classroom to the Magitech classroom when he suddenly noticed someone tailing him.

Dark did not reveal his intentions; he simply walked a few steps in place after turning a corner, then turned around to wait.

Soon, he saw Victor and Robert come rushing around the corner.

He dodged to the side.

Robert stopped in time, but Victor tripped and slammed into the wall.

"Hiss--"

That looked painful!

Dark took the initiative to speak: "The reason for following me?"

"Haha." Robert shrugged and let out two dry laughs.

After a moment, Victor rubbed his head, turned around, and said with a stiff upper lip: "It's like this. Aren't our parents comrades-in-arms? I just suddenly realized that it's been over a month since school started, and I haven't officially greeted you yet."

Dark frowned slightly, a flicker of wariness flashing in his eyes.

Victor's move was far too abrupt.

If Victor had come to make friends right when school started, Dark might have believed him.

But as Victor himself said, it had already been over a month!

In over a month, they had entered and exited the same classrooms countless times; why come now instead of earlier or later?
