Chapter 750: Darc’s Rabbit Experiment 4K
Darc had long intended to give Rose a [Bliss Fruit] as a gift, but he was concerned she might treat it like a precious treasure and not use it. To prevent this, he planned to personally teach her how to use the [Bliss Fruit] to conjure a mana spirit — if it failed, he would simply give her another one!
The method of conjuring a mana spirit card using a [Bliss Fruit] actually differed in detail from the usual conjuring methods. Without his guidance, it was easy to cause waste.
Moreover, he had to watch Rose use it to ensure the [Bliss Fruit] did not go astray.
Additionally, his idea of giving Rose the [Bliss Fruit] contained an experimental component from the start.
He wanted to see if someone else could use the [Bliss Fruit] to conjure a mana spirit, and if so, whether the conjured mana spirit would be confined within the same categories as his — “Digital Monsters,” “Yu-Gi-Oh! monsters,” and “Pokémon.”
Ultimately, would they possess consciousness after being conjured and have the potential to evolve?
…
Rose picked up the juice and examined it closely. After a moment, she said, “There are some high-grade materials for rabbits… Darc, are all your mana spirit cards made with this juice?”
Darc smiled and said, “You could say that.”
The [Capital Sin Fruit] was cultivated by injecting [Capital Sin] into the body of a cat plant.
The so-called [Capital Sin] was actually a form of mental substance overflowing from his mind.
Thus, the final [Capital Sin Fruit] contained not only the biological factors of the cat plant and the characteristics of [Capital Sin], but also his mental energy and mana, making it a culmination of his possessions.
This fruit was the core of his mana spirit conjuring system.
Of course, he couldn’t explain these details.
He didn’t even plan to reveal the name [Bliss Fruit].
So when Rose asked him what the fruit was called, he simply smiled and evaded the question.
“Why don’t we try it now and see what kind of mana spirit we can conjure?”
Tomorrow was their departure, and he wanted to make sure he saw Rose use it today!
…
Rose had always been smart. When Darc told her that the juice could be used to conjure a mana spirit, she knew it was a very precious Christmas gift.
And there must be great secrets hidden in that juice.
So when Darc suggested conjuring it on the spot, she readily agreed without hesitation.
“I’ve also set up a lab in my dorm.”
Her heart raced as she turned to leave.
…
It took Darc a few minutes before he left for Rose’s room.
By then, he had already changed into his outdoor clothes and had washed up briefly.
No matter when, maintaining tidiness was a necessary virtue for a noble.
He knocked on the door and entered. Inside, Diana was excitedly arranging [Food Cards], while Rose hurriedly selected materials.
“Share some with me.” Darc approached Diana and tried to take some.
He hadn’t eaten breakfast yet.
“Eat, eat.” Diana happily shoved the summoned food into his mouth, filling the room with fragrance.
After eating half his fill, Darc stood up to guide Rose in selecting materials.
Besides choosing the core material, selecting auxiliary materials was equally important.
Different core materials required different auxiliary materials.
There were many subtleties involved, and without enough experience, one had to repeatedly trial and error.
Darc walked over and asked, “Where’s your core material?”
Rose pulled out several high-quality materials and arranged them, saying, “I saved three pieces; two came from the dungeon, and one from Halloween.”
Darc looked down and pondered carefully.
Those three materials were parts of a rabbit.
The first was a ruby-like rabbit eye that emitted intense fiery energy.
“This is the eye of a Fire Rabbit, right?” he asked.
Rose nodded with a smile, “To catch it, I almost got my hair burned!”
No wonder her bangs suddenly became shorter one day…
Darc didn’t reveal the truth and continued to look at the second material.
This second material was a large brown foot claw—without Rose’s indication, it wasn’t clear if it was a rabbit’s foot.
He guessed, “It has an earthy aura; is it an Earth Rabbit?”
Rose nodded vigorously, “Yes, yes, it’s bigger than a bear!”
“Why compare it to a bear?” Diana protested, but no one paid attention.
Darc looked at the last material and concluded, “Is this the fur of a Ghost Rabbit?”
“Yes.” Rose replied, “It has three tufts of hair on its head.”
Darc nodded.
These three rabbit materials easily reminded him of three rabbits with different attributes.
“Fire Bunny, Dig-Dig Rabbit… Ghost Rabbit?”
“No, although Ghost Rabbit sounds similar to Ghost Rabbit, it seems to be a light attribute Yu-Gi-Oh! monster, and it’s humanoid. It’s hard to tell if it’s a rabbit just from the card.”
Darc shook his head.
The tufts of hair on the Ghost Rabbit were dark and ghostly materials, most fitting with the [Bliss Juice], and were also the highest quality core materials, making them the best choice.
However, he couldn’t immediately think of any rabbits with dark powers among Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, or Digital Monsters.
Considering the experiment, focusing on fire and ground types might be the best choice.
The only issue was that the [Bliss Fruit] couldn’t direct the experiment results towards fire or ground types.
In essence, the characteristics of Fire Bunny and Dig-Dig Rabbit didn’t align well with [Bliss].
Therefore, he found it hard to decide.
After a while, he asked, “Which material do you want to use?”
Rose thought for a moment and immediately set aside the tufts of hair from the Ghost Rabbit.
Well, she didn’t like ghosts.
That’s why the tufts of hair from the Ghost Rabbit remained unprocessed until now.
“The fire type and ground type, fire type leans more towards attack, and the Fire Rabbit’s eye is of higher quality. Can I choose this eye?”
“Then let’s use this eye, since it’s a random conjuring method.”
Darc couldn’t help but smile.
Rose puffed out her cheeks and suddenly turned to take out a small bottle from the cabinet, shaking it at Darc.
Inside the tiny bottle was a shimmering silver sand.
“Is it Star Sand?” Darc pretended to be surprised.
Proudly, Rose said, “It’s a gift from my Christmas stocking. My luck will surely be good this year.” “Hope it doesn’t use up all your luck for the year…” Darc thought of his little apple, feeling a pang of sadness.
…
Next, Darc briefly guided her on choosing auxiliary materials, then stood aside with his hands in his sleeves.
Once Rose prepared the auxiliary materials, he briefly pointed out a few key points during the mana spirit conjuring process, and then remained silent.
Having been a professor for so long, he naturally knew how to maintain the right balance in teaching, ensuring Rose learned the method without overshadowing her own experiment.
As the experiment began, he observed from the side.
Rose’s conjuring technique was already very proficient, especially in precise operations. Her use of mana during the experiment was also very subtle.
The entire experiment went smoothly with no major surprises. He only corrected a few minor issues at the end, leading to a successful outcome.
“It seems our luck isn’t bad.”
He watched as Rose removed the stains from the mana spirit card, revealing a card with an orange glow.
Rose exclaimed in surprise, “It’s an Orange Card!”
“(@ο@) Wow!” Diana jumped up instantly.
It was truly lucky to conjure an Orange Card!
…
Darc’s gaze fell on the card, a slight seriousness appearing on his face.
On the card, a small standing rabbit was depicted.
“Fire Bunny!”
She had actually conjured a Fire Bunny!
Fire Bunny, as one of the starter Pokémon of the eighth generation, had high speed and attack, with two stages of evolution and even a special form called Gigantamax, which could perfectly complement Rose’s weaknesses.
But Darc had only intended to give it a try; he never expected Rose to actually conjure a Pokémon!
And it was a fire-type Pokémon conjured with a [Bliss Fruit]…
Although this Fire Bunny was an Orange Card, not a Gold Card, it was still quite decent.
“Now, I’ve verified some of my ideas.”
“There is indeed a possibility of conjuring a Pokémon since the [Bliss Fruit] contains my mental substance.”
“But I wonder if my [Bliss Card] will work on it…”
“But, although this Fire Bunny was conjured with a [Bliss Fruit], can it really evolve using [Bliss]?”
Fire type is the main type of [Sloth], theoretically, it should evolve using a Sloth Capital Sin Card.
But the classification of Capital Sin types isn’t that clear-cut, so there is a possibility it could evolve using [Bliss].
Only, this Fire Bunny is Rose’s, while the [Bliss Card] is Darc’s…
“Thinking too much won’t help. We’ll find out soon.”
Darc looked at the Fire Bunny card subconsciously, “Can I take a look?”
Rose had just cleaned the Fire Bunny’s mana spirit card, and now she handed it to Darc without hesitation.
“It’s no wonder it’s a fire-type mana spirit.”
The mana spirit card emitted a faint warmth, far from cold.
Darc habitually injected mana—then realized it was Rose’s mana spirit card!
Mana had already been injected, and the information inside the card flowed back unhindered!
He was surprised, and his eyes quickly displayed the information about the Fire Bunny.

Card Name: Fire Bunny
Type: Elemental Card
Level: ???
Race: Avian-beast Kin
Attribute: Fire
Mana: 1400
Attack: 1600
Defense: 700
Ultimate Skills: Freedom, Double Kick, Accumulate Flame Strike

Fire Bunny is a very lively rabbit Pokémon with a white body, fluffy cheek protrusions, big ears, and feet. Its ear tips and toes are orange, and it has a small flame-shaped collar around its neck. There are rectangular fleshy protrusions above its nose and on its feet, resembling bandages.
The Fire Bunny also has a “flame sac” in its chest filled with concentrated fire energy.
When its heartbeat and body temperature rise due to warm-up exercises, the fire energy becomes active, greatly enhancing its physical capabilities.
The Fire Bunny conjured by Rose has attack stats exceeding the top tier of three-star Pokémon, though its defense is weak, and its mana is decent. From the attribute allocation, it’s a standard strong-attack type.
Since it’s an Orange Card, it has three ultimate skills.
It does not have the [Flare Boost] ability but instead has the hidden ability [Freedom].
—
Freedom: Before using an ultimate skill, the user’s attribute changes to match the skill being used. This effect lasts until the Fire Bunny uses a different attribute skill or ends the battle. For dual-attribute mana spirits, activating [Freedom] turns it into a single-attribute mana spirit. Mana spirits with [Freedom] suffer 70% less from binding and stun effects.
—
The ultimate skill [Freedom] is undoubtedly useful, but mastering it isn’t simple. It allows the Fire Bunny to temporarily change its attribute to avoid type weaknesses by using its ultimate skills.
However, because mana spirit ultimate skills have longer cooldowns, it’s not as convenient to use.
But the additional 70% resistance to status effects makes it incredibly powerful.
This means the Fire Bunny is unlikely to be bound, allowing it to move freely and maximize its high mobility!
Its other two ultimate skills are [Double Kick], a fighting-type skill, and [Accumulate Flame Strike], a fire-type skill.
—
Double Kick: The Fire Bunny uses both feet to kick opponents continuously, dealing damage twice and adding fire-type damage, with a chance to burn the target.
—
Accumulate Flame Strike: The Fire Bunny can store flames in its flame sac, increasing attack and speed by 10% upon full charge. Once released, it covers itself in flames, boosting attack and speed by 20% for three minutes.
—
While [Double Kick] isn’t particularly powerful, it allows for consecutive attacks.
[Accumulate Flame Strike] is clearly a god-tier skill, making the Fire Bunny nearly invincible in the three-star range.
If [Accumulate Flame Strike] is used alongside [Double Kick], the damage is even higher.
—
After reviewing, Darc didn’t return the Fire Bunny card to Rose but gave it to Diana.
“Inject mana and see.”
