Chapter 559: Dark Demon’s Astrology Class (10k)
“Let’s wrap up the experiment for now.”
Dark pressed his finger on the card face of 【Spell Cage: Agumon】, gently tracing the array.
As mana slowly infused, Agumon’s state gradually recovered, and his confused eyes brightened again.
Normally, golems wouldn’t be long troubled by abnormal statuses.
Most abnormal states could be cleanly dispelled by “dismissing the summon,” which naturally included consciousness confusion caused by incorrect evolution.
After all, dismissing the summon would also undo Agumon’s “evolution.”
But what if they couldn’t dismiss the summon?
Then they’d have to kill it!
…
After “death,” golems would naturally return to their magic cards, and any effects on their bodies would vanish, including “evolution.”
This was why Dark could remain so calm while conducting experiments related to “evolution.”
“This incomplete ‘Pride IV’ has a significant effect on ‘Agumon,’ as if it were specifically designed to evolve him into ‘Zombie Tyrannomon.'”
“Pity that with Agumon’s current state, he won’t be able to stay conscious after evolving into ‘Zombie Tyrannomon.'”
Dark continued to replenish Agumon’s mana as he pondered.
His thoughts became more active.
“Both ‘Imp Beast’ and ‘Agumon’ can evolve into ‘Zombie Tyrannomon’ after using this ‘Pride IV.'”
“If we gather three ‘Zombie Tyrannomon,’ could they fuse and evolve into ‘Zombie Ultimatemon’?”
“Hahaha…”
Dark chuckled dryly, extinguishing his unrealistic fantasies.
In any case, the results of his current experiments were within acceptable limits.
【Spell Cage: Agumon】could become a dominant force in his deck if used properly.
Moreover…
At the moment when ‘Lion Beast’ slashed ‘Zombie Tyrannomon,’ a sudden inspiration struck him, reminding him of an important matter he had overlooked these past few days.
“Let’s try it again after Agumon recovers.”
Dark turned towards the classroom.
…
“Is the experiment over?” Diana approached and asked.
“Not yet,” Dark replied. “We’ll do another round after Agumon recovers. What do you want for dinner?”
Diana thought for a moment. “I don’t know. I heard there’s a super sweet pineapple pie tonight, but each person can only get one piece.”
Dark smiled. “How about I give my share to you?”
Diana’s eyes lit up immediately. “Okay! Okay!”
They returned to the classroom, followed by the golems.
Just then, a loud cry suddenly echoed, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.
Ditto and Big Milk Jar paused and rushed into the room.
Everyone exchanged glances before dispersing.
Catalysta followed closely, her brows twitching continuously.
There were too many things in Dark’s experiment that she didn’t understand—highly intelligent golems that could stay in the clubroom for long periods already bewildered her, and Agumon’s triple evolution crushed her understanding further.
But upon reflection, she seemed to recall similar scenes from the Easter Duel Festival, though this time it was even more exaggerated and terrifying.
“Isn’t it just half a year?”
Catalysta shook her head slightly.
Time flowed forward, and everyone progressed. Some simply advanced faster than others.
She should continue reading.
…
It wasn’t until 7:11 PM after dinner that “Spell Cage: Agumon” fully recovered.
Dark stood up from his seat and returned to the open space between the six classrooms.
Rose and Diana hurried to follow, and Rose summoned “Scale Worm” again, releasing “Sound Barrier” to isolate sound.
With only nineteen minutes left until the evening “Astrology Class,” students began to ascend the Spiral Bell Tower one by one.
Most people would pause curiously at the tenth floor, which had never been lit before, out of curiosity.
The more curious ones would even knock on the clubroom door, bothering Catalysta who was engrossed in her book.
Therefore, Dark paid extra attention to soundproofing during his second round of experiments.
“Come out, Agumon!”
Given the tight schedule, he summoned Agumon back onto the open ground and immediately took out the latest versions of “Bliss II” and “Bliss III.”
After over an hour of adjustment, Agumon had regained his fighting spirit.
The experience of incorrectly evolving into “Zombie Tyrannomon” hadn’t affected him much.
Being resilient and unwavering, these were traits of a “Hero!”
“Solitary Sword Sheath!”
Upon being called, “Solitary Sword Sheath” flew swiftly.
Dark extended his hand, and “Solitary Sword Sheath” automatically transformed into weapon form.
“Agumon, test the sword.”
…
Agumon looked up at the “Holy Sword” that had slain him not long ago, his expression filled with excitement.
Only firsthand experience could convey the power of the Holy Sword.
He took a deep breath, reached out, and grabbed the hilt of the Solitary Sword Sheath, then clenched it tightly with his claw.
“Buzz—”
Even before the sword was drawn, its blade trembled violently.
Although it had always been around Agumon, it remained loyal, only absorbing Deoxys, never coming close to Agumon.
Today marked the first close contact between two magic spirits.
—Well, except for a negative-distance contact an hour earlier.
In any case, the instant Agumon grasped the hilt of the Solitary Sword Sheath, a resonance formed between the two magic spirits.
This was a unique chemical reaction between a “Hero” and a “Holy Sword.”
Agumon seemed to have a richer “Hero Qualities” than Deoxys!
Driven by heart, he suddenly drew the sword.
When the “Holy Sword” emerged, the sacred aura hidden within burst forth, pure white like a holy light flickering on the blade.
Without further experimentation, it was clear that Agumon could fully unleash “Chain Slash” and “Sword Dance.”
“A third ‘Hero.'”
Dark couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
Though he had anticipated this, he still felt amazed.
In the world of “Digital Monsters”—in his understanding—Agumon embodied “Courage” and was the most fitting definition of a “Hero.”
It was unexpected that Lion Beast and Deoxys also possessed “Hero Qualities.”
Agumon was truly the orthodox choice.
The current situation confirmed his judgment.
Agumon’s “Hero Qualities” were likely higher than Deoxys’.
But how high exactly? Dark couldn’t measure it.
However, after confirming this judgment, Dark had another conjecture.
If he could master the evolution route of “Agumon” – “Tyrannomon” – “MechaTyrannomon” – “WarGreymon,” would it enable Agumon to further purify “Hero Qualities” with every evolution?
This conjecture lacked evidence and couldn’t be verified.
But Dark indeed had this idea.
…
However, two minutes later, Dark set aside this thought and focused on the current experiment.
He waved his hand, reclaiming the Solitary Sword Sheath amidst Agumon’s reluctant gaze, and activated “Bliss II” directly!
Pink light gradually fell, and moonlight tilted slightly.
A “Bliss” emblem appeared on Agumon’s forehead.
Immediately afterward, his body outline expanded, glowing like when he evolved into “AgumonS.”
But unlike before, the light around Agumon absorbed quickly, revealing a pitch-black skin!
“Black Agumon!”
Dark’s eyes shifted, recognizing this subspecies of Agumon.
Darkness, night, moon… were elements of “Bliss.”
This Agumon clearly absorbed the darkness element.
His entire body exuded a highly malevolent dark aura!
“Just a hero, now corrupted by darkness.”
Dark couldn’t help but think of “Crazed Lion Beast,” then attempted to hand the Solitary Sword Sheath to “Black Agumon.”
“Black Agumon” immediately seized the hilt.
The sacred aura inside the Solitary Sword Sheath activated smoothly, but the light immediately reversed, burning his palm.
“Black Agumon” let out a low growl, but his fingers tightened their grip.
“His mana is decreasing!”
Dark injected mana into the magic card to quickly check the information.
【Card Name: Black Agumon】
【Type: Elemental Card】
【Level: ???】
【Race: Dragon】
【Attribute: Dragon/Dark】
【Mana: 1100】
【Attack: 1500】
【Defense: 1300】
【Ultimate Skill: Small Flames, Mach Pierce】
“While holding the ‘Holy Sword,’ Black Agumon’s mana is steadily decreasing at a rate of 3 points per second. However, in ‘Paradise,’ this consumption is negligible.”
“On attributes, Fire changed to Dark.”
“Mana, attack, and defense are identical to ‘AgumonS.'”
“But compared to ‘AgumonS,’ Black Agumon lacks the powerful ‘Small Explosion’ and instead has a physical ultimate skill called ‘Mach Pierce.'”
Dark delved into the detailed information on the ultimate skill.
【Mach Pierce: Instantly bursts forward with extreme speed, piercing through the opponent with sharp claws.】
“A displacement + attack ultimate skill similar to ‘Giga Impact’! If applied correctly, it can be used for evasion or assassination.”
Compared to Pokémon, digital monsters’ ultimate skills were straightforward and brutal.
Dark had the Mana Book record the detailed information, then extracted the Solitary Sword Sheath bit by bit from Black Agumon’s claws.
Watching Black Agumon reveal its fangs like a teddy bear, he couldn’t help but laugh.
“Pfft… Sorry, didn’t mean to, cough cough!”
Dark patted Black Agumon’s head, solemnly. “Did you forget what I told you?”
Black Agumon’s expression froze, then slowly calmed down, the ferocity fading from his face.
Upholding one’s heart, remembering oneself.
Not being corrupted by darkness.
Not being devoured by chaos.
…
The black in Black Agumon’s eyes gradually faded. He successfully overcame the negative effects of “Bliss II.”
Despite being a virus-infected digital monster in theory, Dark’s Black Agumon retained his “Heart of Justice.”
This could be seen from his ability to activate the “Holy Sword” successfully.
…
“So, let’s continue.”
An experiment.
Dark nodded in satisfaction and raised “Bliss III.”
“If my guess is correct, the next evolution should be the Blue-Black ‘Teratigermon’!”
“Dark Agumon” – “Teratigermon (Blue)” – “Mecha Teratigermon (Blue)” – [Dark Battle Teratigermon]
This was an evolution route that he already knew.
Among the “Teratigermon” and “Mecha Teratigermon” on this route, both were blue-black viral types.
In comparison, the “Teratigermon” and “Mecha Teratigermon” of the vaccine type could be seen as two sides of the same coin.
Overall, he was very satisfied with this evolution route.
Because “Dark Battle Teratigermon”… was really cool!
…
Under the glow of “Bliss III,” “Dark Agumon” successfully evolved.
Compared to the previous “Teratigermon,” “Teratigermon (Blue)” – “Dark Teratigermon” was closer to “Teratigermon.” Except for its blue-black skin, the two were almost identical.
[Card Name: Dark Teratigermon]
[Type: Elemental Card]
[Level: ????]
[Race: Dragon Type]
[Attribute: Dragon/Dark]
[Mana: 2400]
[Attack: 2500]
[Defense: 2300]
[Ultimate Skills: Super Flame, Flame Wall, Flame Horn]
“Five stars?”
“Perhaps this is the normal evolution,” Dark thought to himself, looking at the five stars shimmering on the card face.
Although he wasn’t too familiar with “Teratigermon,” from its distinctive appearance, he could tell that “Teratigermon” should have stronger combat capabilities than “Teratigermon.”
As for “Dark Teratigermon” and “Teratigermon,” aside from their different attributes, their combat capabilities were roughly equal.
In other words, it was “Teratigermon” that was abnormal!
Based on this, the correct evolution form of “Teratigermon” should be stronger than “Mecha Teratigermon,” and the next evolution form should be stronger than “Battle Teratigermon.”
Hmm…
Is this deduction correct?
Dark was uncertain.
He shifted his thoughts to “Dark Teratigermon’s” ultimate skills.
Besides “Super Flame,” “Dark Teratigermon” also had two other fire-type ultimate skills.
But the black flames it spewed had a dark attribute among these three ultimate skills.
Among them, “Flame Wall” was clearly a defensive ultimate skill.
[Flame Wall: Dark Teratigermon drives flames to create a firewall to block the opponent’s attack.]
And the third ultimate skill, “Flame Horn,” was aptly named.
[Flame Horn: Dark Teratigermon attaches flames to its large horn, adding extra fire damage when attacking with its horn.]
“It’s still a straightforward ultimate skill, but it’s quite practical.”
After analyzing, Dark looked up at the “Dark Teratigermon” still battling his will, pondering in his heart.
“I hope Agumon can hone its mind during the evolution into ‘Dark Teratigermon,’ and ultimately maintain a certain level of rationality even after evolving into ‘Zombie Teratigermon.'”
…
With class approaching, Dark released “Dark Teratigermon” at 7:25.
The moment the summoning was undone, “Dark Teratigermon” regressed back to “Agumon.”
It shook its head in the mana card, trying to regain consciousness quickly.
“Bliss III” had a huge impact on it, plunging its consciousness deep into darkness, barely preserving its sanity with great effort.
But a true hero never fears difficulties; it even wants more and more trials!
When Dark felt Agumon’s will, he praised, “Good job, keep it up tonight.”
Then he directly released Agumon from the “Spell Cage,” returning it to its familiar form.
Agumon stretched, eyes gleaming, “More tonight?”
Dark nodded, “Tonight is a feast.”
…
With only a minute left before class, Dark Demon entered the classroom of the “Astrology Class” through the back door.
Following him were Rose and Ibut!
Still at the top of the Spiral Bell Tower, still the purple witch.
“Astrology Class” seemed like a continuation of “Astronomy.”
Professor Metia rarely arrived before the bell rang, unlike every previous lesson where she drove the Pumpkin Carriage into the classroom.
However, she still adhered to her own style in attire, refusing to compromise with the academy.
A pointed witch hat carelessly placed on the desk.
A purple veil covering her nose.
A tight-fitting black witch robe after being tailored to fit her figure.
Long elbow-length mesh gloves in deep purple.
Purple stockings tightly wrapping her slender legs.
Crystal high heels with tips sharp enough to kill someone…
Dark always suspected she had more than two sets of similar outfits.
Even in cold winter, Professor Metia only wore a fluffy coat over her clothes.
Her nimble fingers spun a long magic wand, her phoenix-like eyes with light purple eyeshadow slightly narrowing, scanning everyone in the classroom.
After Dark sat down with Lil’Eevee, she stopped spinning her wand, tapping the table.
Whispers in the classroom gradually ceased.
At the same time, the bell for the “Astrology Class” rang.
When the bell stopped, Professor Metia curled her lips and whispered softly, “Does anyone stand up to introduce me? This year, I don’t want to mention those terms.”
As she spoke, her gaze lightly drifted downward.
“Astrology Class” was not unique.
On Tuesday nights, there was another “Astrology Class” taught by a senior professor, which most seniors chose.
Those who chose this “Astrology Class,” besides a few second-year students brought along by Professor Metia, were only a few students who failed in the other “Astrology Class” but still wanted to learn astrology.
In other words, Professor Metia was their second choice.
This didn’t mean Professor Metia’s competence was lacking.
It was just that the senior professor was more popular.
However, Dark felt lucky to have this class.
While other students felt awkward, he stood up with a smile, “Of course. The guide of great destiny, seer of the Starry Eye, the witch of the Silver Moon, our astronomy professor last semester — Ms. Metia Barthelemy, it’s a great honor to meet you again.”
“I’m honored too, Dark Demon.”
Professor Metia winked at Dark, then raised her wand and gently tapped, “Please everyone, chant your names in your hearts.”
The students had just reacted when she suddenly extended her wand and touched it.
Instantly, flames appeared above each student’s head, one after another.
Those flames danced joyfully, eventually turning into names!
…
Students instinctively looked up, emitting low exclamations.
This mysterious technique of transforming thoughts into flames and manifesting them was terrifying.
But once they calmed down, most students began to look around, memorizing the names of unfamiliar classmates.
Dark naturally didn’t miss this opportunity.
He scanned the room quickly, memorizing.
There were eight second-year students present, including himself, Rose Florette, Eudora Envy, Emma Maltis, Sarah Swati, Heidi Euphemia, Pistons Kellogg, and Jimmy Abbott.
Of the nine stars selected in the “Astronomy” class, only Robert Broheim did not choose this “Astrology Class.”
Whether right or wrong, it was his own choice.
And the remaining eight stars were all present.
Jimmy Abbott was a rather unremarkable student from the Fool’s Academy, with exam results in the middle-lower range. Apart from having a bit of “astrological talent,” he didn’t stand out much.
Since Dark had little contact with him, he gave Jimmy extra attention.
Jimmy had short dark gray hair, a watermelon hairstyle, not-so-good skin color, with many faint freckles on his cheeks, tall in stature, ordinary in build, making it hard to leave an impression.
But since he was a student in the “Astrology Class,” Dark had more opportunities to interact with him.
After memorizing his appearance, Dark turned to look at students from other grades.
There were three third-year students, two fourth-year students, and two fifth-year students!
Among these seven students from other grades, Dark only recognized one.
His presence surprised Dark.
Betty Morrey.
Now a fifth-year student, she belonged to the “Marine Biology Research Department,” with a costume of an eel.
Last year, she had joined an adventure team with Wit, Robert, and Scott to explore the secret passages, encountering the vampire Vlad and finding herself in danger.
Dark was somewhat her savior.
Therefore, whenever they met by chance, Betty always greeted him warmly.
Dark’s impression of her improved.
Betty wasn’t strong, but she was somewhat outstanding in studies. However, her talent and luck weren’t great, so it wasn’t surprising she was dropped from the other “Astrology Class.”
But being accepted by Professor Metia, she must have some astrological talent.
As for the other fifth-year student.
The flame above his head displayed the name “Antonio Cromwell.”
Dark felt he looked familiar, but couldn’t recall where he had seen him.
Though these two fifth-year students were both from the Mana Academy, one sat against the wall on this side, and the other sat against the wall on the opposite side, separated by the entire classroom.
“Are these two in conflict?”
Dark’s eyes gradually lit up, his curiosity burning brightly.
…
After subtly taking attendance, Professor Metia smiled, “We only have fifteen students in this class, so I won’t say much. Before class starts, I made a small bet with Professor Macdonald, hoping you can win this bet for me.”
Professor Macdonald was the professor of the other “Astrology Class.”
As soon as Professor Metia finished speaking, the seven students outside the second year immediately stirred.
Fifth-year Antonio Cromwell immediately raised his hand.
Professor Metia pointed at him and said, “Antonio Cromwell, what do you want to say?”
Antonio’s expression darkened slightly as he stood up immediately, “Professor Barthelemy, we enrolled in your elective class to learn astrology, not to become a tool for your bet with Professor Macdonald.”
Professor Metia’s eyebrows lifted slightly, but her thin veil could not hide her smile.
She smiled, “Cromwell, learning and betting aren’t contradictory. This will be part of your final assessment this semester. I sincerely hope every one of my students can master astrology quickly, faster than Professor Macdonald’s students.
As second-year
The only student who directly chose my class outside, don’t you want to surpass Professor McDonald’s students? Or perhaps you lack confidence in yourself?”
Antonio stared deeply into Professor Metia’s eyes, and after ten seconds, he admitted defeat and said solemnly, “No, I have confidence.”
Metia laughed heartily. “Exactly! You need confidence! No matter how capable a seer is, they must first believe in themselves. If one doesn’t trust their own divinations, how can others trust them? Sit down. You’re the oldest student in the class, and I hope you’ll set an example for your juniors.”
“I will.”
Antonio sat down, but his serious expression did not fade.
Professor Metia then turned her gaze to the other students.
With Antonio as a demonstration, those students indeed no longer questioned the bet.
However, beyond that, they clearly lacked confidence.
Clearly, they had little hope of surpassing Professor McDonald’s students.
After all, aside from Antonio, the other six were part of the “failure group” brushed aside by Professor McDonald.
In contrast, the second-year students seemed less skeptical.
Emma raised her hand and asked, “Professor, since the assessment is tied to the bet, if we lose the bet, can we still pass this elective course this year?”
A very practical question.
Professor Metia nodded and replied, “Of course… you won’t be able to pass.”
The murmurs below immediately increased.
Sarah raised her hand and asked, “Professor, what exactly is your bet?”
Professor Metia narrowed her eyes and said, “It’s a very simple bet. Professor McDonald and I will teach you astrology in the first semester of this academic year. Then, during the final exam, we will predict certain events for the next semester. Whichever side makes more accurate predictions wins. If the prediction fails, it means you haven’t successfully mastered astrology.”
Not mastering astrology naturally means failing the assessment.
This was a straightforward concept.
After hearing Professor Metia’s explanation, the students fell silent.
The elective course was chosen by themselves.
Since they chose “Astrology Class,” they came to learn “astrology.”
If they couldn’t learn it, passing the course wouldn’t make sense.
Therefore, among the fifteen students, only Dark Demon looked bewildered.
He knew nothing about his divination talent and chose “astrology” just to accompany Lil’Eevee.
Although Lil’Eevee had made up for some foundational knowledge during the break, its level in mana technology or magical theory was still abysmal.
Teaching it “astrology” in half a semester… it would be better to let it study “Gigantification,” as both were impossible!
“I wonder if the assessment will be a class-wide group assessment or an individual assessment. If it’s a group, I might still have a chance…”
Dark thought meekly.
…
Unlike the popularization of astronomy, the “Astrology Class” professor was professional from the start.
Professor Metia no longer joked around; she started explaining the basic theories of astrology in detail.
In general, astrology involves seeing the future through the trajectory of celestial movements.
But diving deeper, it varies widely based on different central celestial bodies, observation methods, and many other factors, leading to countless types of astrology.
Among these, there are two major categories: “Celestial Divination” and “Constellation Divination.”
Celestial Divination refers to divination methods centered on the sun, moon, Mercury, Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, Venus, etc.
Constellation Divination involves divination centered on the eighty-eight constellations.
According to Professor Metia, mastering any one of these subcategories within this term counts as success!
…
“Astrology centered on the sun or moon, or constellation divination focusing on the twelve zodiac signs, are relatively easy to master.”
“I personally recommend lunar astrology as the most convenient and easy to learn. Of course, everyone has different preferences and compatibility, so you should ultimately rely on yourself.”
“That concludes tonight’s lesson. After returning home, I hope you can quickly memorize the knowledge covered tonight.”
“Also, don’t forget to submit your homework to the class leaders by Wednesday night.”
“Class dismissed!”
After announcing the end of class, Metia left the classroom wearing high heels.
The familiar pumpkin carriage was already parked at the door. She got on the carriage, and the two dark, blurry figures pulling the carriage moved their limbs and flew off into the sky.
However, the atmosphere in the classroom didn’t relax after she left.
All fifteen students were rapidly copying the notes left on the blackboard. After finishing, they began to ponder deeply, trying to absorb the knowledge Professor Metia had imparted during the class.
She had covered so much content that even a one-and-a-half-hour lecture felt insufficient.
Even without assigning homework, these lessons required a lot of time to digest.
The students outside the second year were encountering Professor Metia for the first time, with two even asking the second-year students, “Is Professor Bartholomew always this diligent?”
The second-year students could only laugh dryly and say, “Yes.”
They couldn’t tarnish Professor Metia’s image in front of their seniors. If Professor Metia found out, wouldn’t it be disastrous?
Regardless, the learning atmosphere in this “Astrology Class” was clearly more intense than in the main courses.
Those upperclassmen who still chose Professor Metia’s class despite being brushed aside by Professor McDonald naturally had a positive attitude towards learning astrology.
Under their leadership, the second-year students also couldn’t slack off.
Thus, it wasn’t until half an hour after the class ended that the students gradually left.
Dark stayed until last, taking the eraser from Eudora, who was standing on tiptoe to clean the board, and wiped it clean.
“Thank you!”
Eudora’s face flushed again.
“It was nothing.”
Dark put down the eraser and asked, “Are you going straight back now?”
Seeing Eudora’s hesitant look, Dark smiled and said, “Why don’t we go to our club room for a bit, then head back together?”
Eudora immediately nodded. “Okay!”
Rose, who had just packed up her things, walked over and took her arm. “Let’s go together. I’ve made tea. Though I’m not sure if you like iced tea…”
The three of them left the classroom, turned off the lights, and went from the twelfth floor down to the tenth.
The Magical Animal Club’s clubroom was still lit, but Senior Catalysta had already left, leaving only the mana golems resting and reading in the room.
Agumon handed the guillemot in his arms to Ditto as soon as he saw Dark return.
Eudora’s eyes were completely drawn to the obviously non-mana golem magical animal.
Before she could ask, Rose spoke up, “That’s a guillemot, our club’s first magical animal…”
After putting down his backpack, Dark led Agumon to the empty space between the six classrooms.
Rose’s “Scale Worm” flew over upon her signal, deploying its “Soundproof Barrier.”
Dark took out “Greed II” and “Greed III” from his deck and said to Agumon, “Is it too difficult to familiarize yourself with three evolutions in one day?”
Agumon’s gaze was resolute as he shook his head. “Each evolution is very clear to me. They are vastly different and won’t be confused.”
“That’s good.” Dark relaxed. “Prepare for the third experiment, starting with ‘Greed II.'”
When Agumon nodded, Dark activated “Greed II.”
“Swipe and Evolve!”
Releasing the accepted Agumon, he evolved in the blue-purple glow!
As the evolution light shone, the cold air dispelled the last bit of heat from the night.
Agumon, as white as snow, emerged from the light.
“What kind of subspecies is this?”
Dark couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.
Until tonight, he never imagined that there could be so many subspecies of “Agumon.”
It felt like watching Lil’Eevee evolve, each time new and exciting.
He then looked at the mana card, “Spell Cage: Agumon,” which had changed to “Spell Cage: Snow Agumon!”
“Snow Agumon,” a subspecies living in the snowfield, with body color matching the snow, able to hide in the snow and approach enemies undetected.
They playfully frolic like children when it snows.
[Card Name: Snow Agumon]
[Type: Elemental Card]
[Level: ???]
[Race: Dragon Type]
[Attribute: Dragon/Ice]
[Mana: 1100]
[Attack: 1500]
[Defense: 1300]
[Ultimate Skill: Small Blizzard, White Hail]
“The change in attributes brings changes to the ultimate skill.”
“Other than that, it is no different from ‘Agumon S’ and ‘Black Agumon.'”
“So let’s check the ultimate skills first.”
Dark injected more mana, and soon received feedback.
[Small Blizzard: Snow Agumon sprays a small blizzard from its mouth that can freeze the opponent.]
[White Hail: Snow Agumon condenses ice energy into spherical projectiles and shoots them into the air, forming ice columns that fall and hit the enemy.]
“Two ultimate skills very much in line with the ice attribute. ‘Small Blizzard’ can serve as a control skill, while ‘White Hail’ is an attack skill that can be manipulated.”
“In any case, it’s still decent for a three-star mana spirit.”
“Now… I’m curious about the next stage of evolution for ‘Snow Agumon.'”
Dark first ordered “Snow Agumon” to release its ultimate skill into the air and carefully observed and recorded it before picking up “Greed III.”
“Snow Agumon” immediately turned around, lifting its head to welcome the light of “Greed III.”
“In the name of Dark Demon, Mana Summoning!”
The intense “Greed” light dyed the six walls a deep blue-purple.
“Snow Agumon” sensed a greater desire.
It craved not only power but also ice and knowledge!
Among Dark’s mana spirits, only it was summoned after enrollment.
Except for it, the other mana spirits had mostly learned to read and write.
Every time it saw its companions reading and writing, though it was confused, it secretly envied them.
This envy intensified under the guidance of “Greed III,” transforming into a greed for knowledge.
As the evolution light enveloping it converged inward, a snow-white demonic creature appeared before Dark.
It wore a pointed hat, a snowy cloak, and wielded an ice crystal staff, resembling a mage controlling ice and snow, exuding a cold yet wise aura.
