Chapter 538: Birth of Angels and Dragons (10k)
Those who haven’t experienced it can hardly imagine the emotional fluctuations Darke was experiencing.
If one had to make an analogy, it would be like being on a roller coaster just as it reaches its peak, ready for the most thrilling ride, even with the screams prepared, only for the ride to suddenly stop!
That feeling of not being able to go back or down is almost unbearable.
It took Darke some time to regain his senses, and then he immediately noticed Deoxys in its luminous form showing signs of pain.
Clearly, the feeling of being stuck at the peak without being able to launch was far from pleasant.
Seeing its increasingly furrowed brows, Darke felt pained and quickly began to think.
The “Pride IV” card in his hand was indeed defective. Other than the Imp Beast, all other Golems could only break through to six stars with this card.
For Deoxys to evolve into Celestial Beast, this step was crucial!
Even if the evolved Celestial Beast only had six angel wings, it would still be at least a seven-star.
Now that it was stuck at the final stage of evolution, it confirmed Darke’s guess.
So, how could he help it complete this final breakthrough?
Injecting it with another “Capital Sin Card”?
But lower-level “Capital Sin Cards” could only serve as a guide.
Transitioning from quantity to quality isn’t easy.
And right now, what Deoxys needed the least was guidance.
Then why could the Imp Beast break through?
Was it due to the intense conflict between light and dark leading to an extreme mutation?
Perhaps the overly smooth evolution process of Deoxys turned out to be a disadvantage?
“Ahh!”
Deoxys’ cry tightened Darke’s face further.
Now wasn’t the time to ponder these things.
“I have to try everything!”
Darke’s mind raced. The more critical the moment, the calmer he became.
Using a “Capital Sin Card” in this situation wouldn’t just be useless; it might cause further chaos and add more suffering to Deoxys.
At this point, the only useful method he could think of was the mental power he had used before!
Although Deoxys was a Golem, it still retained its essence as a Digital Monster.
…
In the first season of “Digital Monsters,” the protagonists like Taichi Yagami were able to evolve their Digital Monsters by relying on mental power.
The chosen children used a “Holy Plan” Digital Tamer to maintain a bond with their Digital Monsters.
Transmitting their mental power through the Digital Tamer allowed their monsters to evolve into “Mature Stage.”
Accompanying badges like Courage, Friendship, Love, Knowledge, Honesty, Purity, Hope, and Light acted like amplifiers of mental power, enabling “Super Evolution” or evolution into the “Ultimate Stage.”
…
Darke had studied enough about Golems to know the levels of Digital Monsters corresponded to the star ratings of Golems.
Generally, “Growth Stage” and below corresponded to the first tier.
“成熟期” corresponded to the second tier.
“完全体” corresponded to the third tier.
And “究极体” and above corresponded to the fourth tier.
The reason “Capital Sin Cards” could enable evolution was because the “Seven Deadly Sins” themselves were forms of mental power.
Currently, Deoxys was stuck between sixth and seventh star, akin to being stuck in the process of evolving into a “Complete Stage.”
According to the original story, this lack of sufficient mental power was the issue.
Darke didn’t have a “badge” like a mental power amplifier, but he did have the “Seven Deadly Sins!”
“Three Flowers Technique!”
Realizing this, Darke focused and performed the “Three Flowers Technique.”
“Drip!”
Like a drop of water falling into a pond, ripples spread out.
White light flickered at Darke’s fingertips, with a ripple of mental power spreading outward.
He slowly opened his eyes, and deep within them, the marks of the Seven Deadly Sins flashed.
“Deoxys.”
Under the gaze of all the Golems, Darke extended his hand towards Deoxys.
…
Deoxys was fully conscious, so it clearly felt the pain of wanting to burst open but unable to do so.
Its will wasn’t weak.
Anyone with “Hero Qualities” possessed a strong will.
But at this moment, it was vulnerable.
Just like a baby curled up in its mother’s amniotic fluid, mere will couldn’t bring about substantial change.
Deep beneath the surface of “Pride,” the heart held a softness unique to the Light Attribute.
It needed help.
…
As their fingers touched, a great light shone!
…
Darke’s thoughts shifted, and he stepped forward, firmly grasping Deoxys’ glowing hand, which had become as delicate as a girl’s.
Pure Light Aura flowed back through the mental power’s perception.
Darke felt a gentle warmth, like water.
His control over “Pride” was now effortless, and with a thought, “Pride” surfaced.
The mental power injected into Deoxys carried elements of “Pride,” tending towards the Light Attribute.
As the mental power circulated, Darke clearly sensed a fine thread building a bridge between their minds.
The genuine affection born from long companionship, unaltered by sentiment, slowly flowed into Deoxys’ heart as their bond formed.
Darke seemed to touch the most delicate part of Deoxys’ mind, feeling the deep respect and affection Deoxys had always harbored for him.
This emotion, growing stronger over time, was now nurturing a clear lake in its heart.
It was warm and captivating.
…
When connecting with the Imp Beast, its consciousness was largely chaotic.
Now, connecting with Deoxys, its consciousness was crystal clear, enhancing the experience.
Darke was immersed in the warmth, the power emerging from his mind becoming purer and more powerful.
With this infusion, Deoxys finally broke through!
The light within it completed its transition from burst to containment in an instant.
A body resembling a radiant cluster finally materialized.
Six wings unfolded, with white feathers drifting down.
The special aura of an “Angel” rapidly diffused like ripples.
Alvaraite and others outside Darke’s bedroom nodded quietly.
Far within the Church, an elder guarding the sacred relics suddenly opened his eyes. His sharp gaze pierced through space, fixated on the direction of the Duke’s Mansion.
“Another Angel has been born!”
The old voice contained a hint of undeniable worry.
…
Darke looked at the Celestial Beast landing, his face revealing pure joy.
Since encountering the remnant soul of the Moon Goddess transformed into a Celestial Beast in the secret passage, he had wished to possess one too.
But the Golem created from the feather left by that Celestial Beast was only a Deoxys.
Now, he had finally helped Deoxys evolve!
Though half of her face was covered by a cross mask, her beautiful facial features and luscious red lips still exuded charm, prompting one to wonder what lay beneath the mask.
Celestial Beast’s posture was exceptionally emotive. Her golden hair cascaded smoothly, with three holy feathers adorning each side of her face, symbolizing restraint. Leather straps tightly bound her slender waist and plump right thigh. On her left ankle, she wore a golden “Sacred Ring.”
A pinkish-purple ribbon inscribed with mysterious runes wrapped around her arms, with the ends resembling wings.
Unlike a complete Celestial Beast, Deoxys’ evolution via the “Pride IV” card seemed incomplete.
As expected, it only had six wings, classifying it as an “Angel” rather than an “Archangel.”
This difference might manifest in its star rating and stats.
Nevertheless, Deoxys successfully evolving into a Celestial Beast brought Darke immense joy.
His gaze swept over her from head to toe, noting the hand they hadn’t let go since it was clasped.
He loosened his grip, but when he tried to pull away, she held on tightly.
“Cough! Cough!”
Darke glanced at the Golems behind Celestial Beast, feigning a cough.
But Celestial Beast still held his hand, her lips tightly closed, her eyes hidden behind the cross mask, lost in thought.
Darke had to apply some force.
Celestial Beast suddenly snapped out of it, subconsciously saying, “It succeeded.”
“Yes, it succeeded.”
Darke smiled, gently retracting his hand.
Evoking Deoxys’ successful evolution into a Celestial Beast was not only a surface-level surprise; internally, it held significant meaning.
Especially the fact that mental power played a key role in crossing the final threshold. For Darke’s research, this was nearly revolutionary.
This meant that with greater mastery of mental power and deeper understanding of the “Seven Deadly Sins,” he might no longer need “Capital Sin Cards” to evolve Digital Monsters within Golems!
Current mental power was merely supplementary, but it could gradually replace “Capital Sin Cards.”
Relying solely on “Capital Sin Cards” for evolution had many limitations.
If Darke could rely entirely on mental power to evolve Golems, his tactical system would see a terrifying enhancement.
However, he couldn’t be overly ambitious.
The development of “Capital Sin Cards” was essential, as it involved deep research into “Capital Sins.”
Darke briefly pondered and then joined the Golems in celebrating Deoxys’ successful evolution.
At the bedroom door, Alvaraite and others quietly dispersed without knocking.
…
The evolved Celestial Beast emitted a gentle aura that invited closeness.
Despite “Pride” making her expression cold, the Golems were already immune to it. They all gathered close, even the Imp Beast reluctantly offering congratulations.
Darke sat down, examining the Golem card that had transformed into a Celestial Beast.
[Card Name: Celestial Beast]
[Type: Elemental Card]
[Level: ????]
[Race: Angel Type]
[Attribute: Light Type]
【Mana: 3500】
【Attack: 3600】
【Defense: 2000】
【Ultimate Skills: Sacred Ring, Sacred Arrow, Heaven’s Purple Light, Sacred Bubbles.】
After transforming from “Avian-beast Kin” to “Angel Kin,” “Tian Nü Beast” saw全面提升的三围属性，但防御力的短板仍然存在。
However, compared to the breakthroughs in mana and attack power, this minor flaw was negligible.
Especially with its ultimate skills, which were all maxed out, this eliminated Dark’s remaining concerns.
He had originally thought that the “Tian Nü Beast” with only six angel wings might lack in its core ultimate skills, but now it appeared that wasn’t the case.
The “Tian Nü Beast” was still a genuine gold card!
“Perhaps it’s because something more than just the ‘Pride IV’ triggered its evolution.”
“The power of the mind made up for its deficiencies, allowing it to evolve smoothly.”
“If a complete ‘Pride IV’ could be refined, there would be no need for the assistance of mental power, and it might even see further improvements in star level and stats.”
After carefully analyzing, Dark injected more mana into the mana card and delved into the detailed information on the ultimate skills.
“First is the ‘Sacred Ring’!”
【Sacred Ring: Passive skill, the Sacred Ring of Tian Nü Beast is proof of its holy attribute, making its strength even greater. Mana +500, Attack +500, Defense +500.】
The retention of the ‘Sacred Ring’ was undoubtedly a significant surprise.
The practicality of each stat increasing by 500 points had been proven countless times on Deoxys.
This meant that in normal conditions, the base stats of “Tian Nü Beast” would be:
【Mana: 4000】
【Attack: 4100】
【Defense: 2500】
Such terrifying base stats made it almost comparable to an eight-star mana spirit.
Unfortunately, the claw gauntlet from the Ultimate Mode Digimon “Golden Sword Lion” that Deoxys wore did not remain, significantly reducing its melee damage.
However, in compensation, Tian Nü Beast acquired the ultimate skill called “Sacred Arrow.”
【Sacred Arrow: Tian Nü Beast can summon a sacred bow made of light, named “Heaven’s Executioner,” shooting lightning arrows to punish evil! It comes with a paralysis effect, adding an extra +500 attack.】
While adding +500 attack to weapons is not uncommon in mana cards, the additional effect as a powerful ultimate skill is extremely potent.
Unfortunately, the weapon’s additional attack cannot stack.
When Tian Nü Beast uses the “Holy Sword,” it does not gain an additional +500 attack boost.
But talking about the “Holy Sword”…
Dark had no doubt about Tian Nü Beast’s “Hero Qualities.”
Unfortunately, the perfect synergy between Tian Nü Beast and the “Holy Sword” made it difficult to produce special combo techniques like “Crazy Dance.”
However, people’s desires are insatiable, and Dark was already incredibly satisfied.
【Heaven’s Purple Light: Tian Nü Beast will not tolerate injustice and evil. When she releases her beautiful and gentle purple beam with the purpose of judgment, the more evil the opponent, the greater the damage they receive.
Damage to demons increased by 100%, dark attribute damage increased by 50%, evil attribute damage increased by 20%.】
Under the illumination of “Heaven’s Purple Light,” no evil could survive!
Dark, seeing this similar effect to the “Holy Sword,” no longer doubted Tian Nü Beast’s hero qualities.
It was practically a living “Holy Sword” itself!
“There’s one more ultimate skill left!”
Dark continued to check with excitement.
【Sacred Bubbles: Tian Nü Beast gathers the power of all allies into a sacred bow, firing a sacred arrow to purify all sins.】
The brief description hid an immensely terrifying meaning.
“This is undoubtedly a mental skill!”
After experiencing the “Mystical Beast: Buck Deer” and its “Light of Mind,” Dark finally obtained his own mental skill!
His eyes widened involuntarily, feeling excited about this obvious protagonist-specific ultimate skill usually seen at the end of works to turn the tide against bosses.
But after calming down, he realized that such ultimate skills were actually quite unstable in terms of power.
“Tian Nü Beast gathers the power of all allies… so what defines ‘allies’? How much power can each ally provide? Is there an upper limit to the final power?”
All these questions required deeper investigation to answer.
“From what I can tell, I, being connected to Tian Nü Beast, must be one of the allies. As for the other allies… perhaps they are the mana spirits?”
Dark couldn’t help but look up again at the harmonious mana spirits.
Then he began to recall the animations he had watched.
“In the first season of ‘Digital Monsters,’ the eight chosen children and their Digimon were all considered allies of Tian Nü Beast.
Each of them had a Digivice with a Holy Plan, a medium for transmitting mental power, and a key item connecting the eight children.”
“I don’t have a Digivice, but it seems I have a tool to connect Deoxys and the other mana spirits together.”
“That is, the Field Card!”
“Or more accurately, the ‘Paradise’!”
Dark suddenly understood.
He quickly realized that the potential of the “Sacred Bubbles” was unimaginable.
As “Paradise” upgraded, its ultimate power could continue to increase!
This was no longer just a “trump card”; it was a true “finishing move!”
…
It was late.
Dark did not attempt any experiments with Tian Nü Beast’s ultimate skills after this.
The excitement of the mana spirits subsided as Tian Nü Beast regressed.
But the mana spirits who did not gain new powers planted a seed of desire for power in their hearts.
The憨态可掬的青眼幼龙, embodying “Pride,” eventually approached Dark and repeatedly used the “Lick Tongue” ultimate skill, clearly wanting Dark to continue while it enjoys the infusion of “Pride IV.”
“Tomorrow morning,” Dark patted its adorable big head affectionately.
“Grrr—”
The large eyes of the blue-eyed dragon narrowed into slits.
…
Dark had ideas about hatching the “Primordial Dragon Egg.”
But after numerous experiments, he was very clear that the energy level of the “Pride IV” was still insufficient.
Otherwise, using a complete “Pride IV” could potentially hatch a new mana spirit — “Sin? Blue-Eyed White Dragon” — from the “Primordial Dragon Egg”!
As for the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon,” it likely requires higher-quality pure mana injection.
But given the current situation, the best outcome might be hatching a seven-star semi-dragon.
And it’s unlikely to succeed.
Perhaps the experiment tomorrow morning will disappoint the blue-eyed dragon.
But in this world, things don’t always go as planned.
Dark closed his eyes and slowly fell asleep.
…
The night was quiet.
The appearance of “Tian Nü Beast” caused some unknown commotion, but the entire capital city remained calm.
The Church of the Saints, which was highly concerned about the birth of an “Angel,” was preoccupied with implementing “Judgment” and had no time to spare.
Moreover, the “Angel” appeared in the Duke’s Mansion, and Chief Archbishop Gail Norris immediately guessed it was likely due to Dark Demon.
He had a deep impression of “Deoxys” and “Bastemon.”
Considering Dark’s mysterious ability to evolve mana spirits, he directly concluded that “Deoxys” evolved into an “Angel”!
If his judgment was correct, all they could do was record the owner of the “Angel” and their basic information, as they had always done.
…
A night passed, and when the morning light of August 29th illuminated the capital city.
Students preparing to return to school by mana train had already set out early.
In fact, most students returned by mana train.
Saint Maryann Academy also dispatched dedicated mana trains to pick up students, and during this period, fewer public classes were available.
After breakfast, Dark brought the mana spirits to the training ground in the backyard.
The blue-eyed dragon was already huge; if it hatched into an adult dragon using “Pride IV,” it wouldn’t fit inside the mansion.
To avoid causing further destruction, it was better to conduct the experiment outside.
“Blue-Eyed Dragon, converting the egg.”
As Dark’s command rang out, the blue-eyed dragon let out a loud roar and immediately contracted its essence, turning into a snow-white dragon egg.
Dark walked over, aimed the “Pride IV” at the egg, and began summoning: “By the name of Dark Demon, Mana Summoning — ‘Pride IV’!”
The dark golden light condensed into a beam under his control and pierced into the dragon egg.
As the power of “Pride” continuously infused, the red “Pride” emblem gradually appeared on the surface of the egg.
The aura emanating from within the egg also changed rapidly.
Dark carefully felt the change in aura,敏锐地察觉到 “Primordial Dragon Egg” 对 “Pride IV” 的吸收效率非常高，远高于对 “Pride III” 的吸收效率。
“Could it be because the light attribute energy in ‘Pride IV’ dominates?”
Dark’s thoughts stirred, and the original expectation in his heart surged back up.
The “Primordial Dragon Egg” originated from the “Blue-Eyed Dragon.”
And the “Blue-Eyed Dragon” was originally a six-star mana spirit.
In other words, the “Primordial Dragon Egg” inherently contained elements sufficient to hatch a six-star mana spirit.
That is to say, its foundation was already six stars!
This was closer to seven stars than the five-star “Lion Beast” and four-star “Deoxys.”
Perhaps this defective “Pride IV” could help it break through to the third tier?
Thinking of this, Dark’s gaze became increasingly focused.
The absorption of “Pride IV” energy by the “Primordial Dragon Egg” was extremely fast.
There was no hesitation or resistance as before; after absorbing the energy of “Pride IV,” it immediately showed signs of hatching.
“Crack!”
A crisp sound suddenly echoed.
A distinct crack appeared on the eggshell, revealing a hint of the innate authority unique to dragons.
Those familiar with the blue-eyed dragon immediately noticed that the quality of this aura was superior to that of the blue-eyed dragon.
“Pride IV” indeed achieved a qualitative leap compared to “Pride III,” even though it was incomplete.
“Crack, crack, crack—”
The sound of the eggshell cracking grew denser, and blinding white light shot out from the fissures.
In the distance, a faint dragon roar seemed to echo.
Finally, the newborn dragon emerged from the shell!
Emerging from the top of the cracked shell was a clearly adult-sized white dragon with blue eyes!
“Roar!”
Upon breaking free, the white dragon spread its wings abruptly!
Rushing towards the sky.
It was like a white light flashing through the air, disappearing in the blink of an eye above the clouds.
Then the wind howled.
A white lightning bolt swiftly struck down.
The dragon with green veins all over its body returned once again.
Just as it was about to land, it suddenly spread its wings, causing a gust of wind that stirred up the sand, blinding everyone.
Overwhelming pressure immediately filled the sky.
The golems widened their eyes but were not intimidated by this pressure.
Despite becoming larger and more imposing, the dragon’s eyes still retained a hint of innocence.
This was a pure light attribute white dragon.
Dark could not help but raise his head to look directly at it.
When the white dragon first hatched, he thought it was the legendary “Blue-Eyed White Dragon,” but upon closer inspection, he noticed many differences from the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.”
The most obvious difference was the green veins covering the dragon’s scales.
Clearly, this should be a subspecies of the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.”
However, Dark had limited knowledge of “Yu-Gi-Oh!” and could only recognize that there were many subspecies of the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon,” but he couldn’t distinguish them well.
Fortunately, he had the magic spell card.
Dark immediately took out the magic spell card and found that the text on the card had changed to “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon!”
“Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon… Is this the card that can substitute for the Blue-Eyed White Dragon? But it shouldn’t have the same star rating…”
Dark frowned slightly.
The card clearly displayed seven stars.
This meant it was a seven-star card!
Seven stars, although already a significant surprise, did not match well with an adult white dragon.
In “Yu-Gi-Oh!,” neither the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” nor any of its subspecies had a rating lower than eight stars!
Dark judged that after transforming into a magic spell card, the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” should also be rated eight stars, so he assumed the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” should also be eight stars.
But the current situation was different.
Being able to hatch a seven-star “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” with the “Pride IV” was already the best possible outcome.
He then raised a smile, spreading his arms wide to welcome the arrival of the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon.”
[Card Name: Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon]
[Type: Elemental Card]
[Level: ???????]
[Race: Dragon]
[Attribute: Light/Dragon]
[Magic Power: 3000]
[Attack: 3500]
[Defense: 3000]
[Ultimate Skills: Dragon Egg Transformation, Blue-Eyes Incarnation, Annihilating Jet White Light, Light Hall.]
The seven-star “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” had very standard stats.
As for its ultimate skills, they overlapped partially with those of the “Baby Blue-Eye Dragon.”
Aside from “Dragon Egg Transformation” and “Light Hall,” the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” had two new ultimate skills.
Dark’s eyes flickered, skipping over “Blue-Eyes Incarnation” and focusing on “Annihilating Jet White Light!”
“Annihilating Jet White Light” was a famous move in “Yu-Gi-Oh!” used by Kaiba Seto when commanding the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.”
Dark vaguely remembered that the “Blue-Eyes Deck” also had a magic spell card named “Annihilating Bursting Gale Bullet,” which was a special move of the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.”
Whether these two moves were the same or not, he wasn’t sure.
In any case, having this ultimate skill made the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” finally have a powerful magical attack skill!
[Annihilating Jet White Light: The white beam emitted by the Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon has destructive power. The damage cannot be recovered once hit. Its power equals a full strike, consumes 100 magic points, takes 3 seconds to charge, and has no cooldown.]
“Is this really just a regular attack? It seems ‘Annihilating Jet White Light’ might not be the same as ‘Annihilating Bursting Gale Bullet.'”
Dark quickly pondered.
“Currently, ‘Annihilating Jet White Light’ doesn’t seem to be a shocking ultimate skill, but it consumes less magic, has no cooldown, and can be used every 3 seconds. It converts the physical attack of the ‘Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon’ into a magical attack, and has an extremely long range and almost undodgeable speed!”
“It sounds decent enough.”
The effects of ultimate skills varied, and using the right skill at the right time was crucial to fully utilize each skill.
“Annihilating Jet White Light” was actually a very useful ultimate skill.
Dark turned his attention to the last ultimate skill of the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” — “Blue-Eyes Incarnation!”
[Blue-Eyes Incarnation: At critical moments, the Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon can transform into a [Blue-Eyed White Dragon], gaining the same level, race, attributes, magic power, attack, and defense. Duration: 30 seconds.]
“A transformation skill lasting one round!”
Dark’s eyes shone.
This ultimate skill had many limitations, with the 30-second duration being the biggest drawback.
But if it could copy the star rating, it meant it could be sacrificed as a “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” or something else.
During the 30-second duration of “Blue-Eyes Incarnation,” it could be treated as a “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.”
It was a pity that it couldn’t copy the ultimate skills.
However, through “Blue-Eyes Incarnation,” one could learn the true form and stats of the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” in advance.
…
Dark looked up again and saw the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” raising its head, looking down with half-closed eyes.
Judging by its posture, it seemed to have finally developed some “Pride” awareness after growing up, showing a hint of arrogance typical of dragons.
Dark didn’t make it lower its head; instead, he pointed toward the empty space in the training ground and softly said, “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon, try your ultimate skill, shoot a white beam there.”
“Roar!”
The “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” let out an excited roar and turned its head toward the empty space, opening its blood-red mouth wide. Bright white light rapidly condensed inside, turning into a terrifying glowing sphere in an instant.
“Annihilating Jet White Light!”
“Roar!”
In an instant, the destructive white light shot from the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” pierced through the ground.
After the rumbling, Dark became even more excited, shouting loudly, “Blue-Eyes Incarnation!”
“Roar—”
Another majestic dragon roar echoed.
The “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” suddenly spread its wings, and white light burst out from its heart, instantly enveloping its entire body.
Its body outline suddenly expanded, and the green veins on its body completely faded away in plain sight.
The pure white dragon with only its eyes remaining green appeared before him in the gathering white light.
Dark raised his right hand again and forcefully slashed down, shouting, “Annihilating Jet White Light!”
A white beam even thicker and larger than before instantly shot out, creating an even more terrifying crater in the ground.
Clearly, as the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon” transformed into a “Blue-Eyed White Dragon,” its attack increased simultaneously, and the strength of “Annihilating Jet White Light” also gained further enhancement.
While excited, Dark immediately checked the magic spell card that had turned into a “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.”
[Card Name: Blue-Eyed White Dragon]
[Type: Elemental Card]
[Level: ?????????]
[Race: Dragon]
[Attribute: Light/Dragon]
[Magic Power: 4500]
[Attack: 5000]
[Defense: 4500]
[Ultimate Skills: Dragon Egg Transformation, Blue-Eyes Incarnation, Annihilating Jet White Light, Light Hall.]
The series of stars on the card instantly dazzled Dark’s eyes.
He suddenly gasped, “Nine stars?”
…
“The ‘Blue-Eyed White Dragon’ isn’t eight stars, but nine stars?”
Dark couldn’t determine whether this was a pleasant surprise or a shock in a short time.
But the duration of “Blue-Eyes Incarnation” was tight, and he must gather as much information as possible.
In the first part of “Yu-Gi-Oh!,” the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” was hailed as the “strongest dragon type,” with the highest attack and defense ratings at the time.
Although it was an effectless normal monster, its attributes were completely exceptional.
After being transformed into a magic spell card, the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” was now a nine-star card, with complete nine-star magic power and defense, and an incredibly strong base attack that exceeded nine-star perfection by 500 points!
To put it into perspective:
In the panel of magic spell cards, higher-ranked magic spell cards were harder to reach the top values.
Let alone a superimposed existence like the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.”
It was undoubtedly the strongest dragon type in the third tier—if we don’t consider the ultimate skills!
Of course, the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” transformed into a magic spell card couldn’t possibly lack corresponding ultimate skills.
Perhaps the magic spell card in “Yu-Gi-Oh!” that could destroy all monsters on the opponent’s field — “Annihilating Bursting Gale Bullet” — was one of its ultimate skills.
In any case, thinking about this made Dark exceptionally eager.
He slightly raised his head, looked at the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” again, and then reluctantly watched it revert back to its seven-star form, the “Blue-Eyes Young White Dragon.”
…
At the end of the summer vacation, Dark Diemon finally completed most of his holiday plans.
The lessons for the magic spell cards would also come to an end today.
During lunchtime, Dark took the magic spell cards to the training ground again and, with the aid of mental power, successfully evolved “Deoxys” into “Celestial Beast.”
Next, he directed the “Celestial Beast” to attempt “Sacred Arrow” and “Heavenly Purple Light,” and finally “Sacred Bubble!”
“Gathering the power of all companions…”
Before unfolding the “Paradise,” Dark had the “Celestial Beast” perform “Sacred Bubble.”
As expected, only Dark, as its owner, could transmit power to it.
After unfolding the “Paradise,” the magic spell cards belonging to the “Paradise” connected with the “Celestial Beast,” and indeed, they could transmit power to it.
But the “Sacred Bubble” had a threshold for absorbing power.
As the deepest-bonded owner, Dark’s power could increase the “Sacred Arrow” by nearly 100%.
Even after unfolding the “Paradise,” the other magic spell cards could only increase its power by 10% each.
The nearly tenfold difference was due to the strength of the bond.
The stronger the bond, the wider the transmission channel.
As for the overall upper limit of the “Sacred Bubble” absorbing power, it couldn’t be measured yet because it hadn’t reached that point.
…
After completing the test, Dark went to the final afternoon activity class with the magic spell cards and bid farewell to four tutors.
Seeing the magic spell cards handing folded paper cranes, hearts, and various shapes to the tutors who had accompanied them for over two months, Dark felt a slight ache in his nasal cavity for some reason.
“Hope we can still meet next year during the holidays.”
Dark shook hands with each tutor, bidding them farewell, and finally sent Mrs. Camilla, Sage Cyrus, and Ms. Plant off from the Duke’s Mansion.
Mrs. Cook, however, accepted the continued employment at the mansion and would stay to educate younger maids.
From then on…
Dark changed into formal attire, boarded the carriage heading to the palace.
