Chapter 119 Pride's Flower Blooms

***Edited by Kronost***

Grimm's potion and Andersen's potion: one is for treating illusion, and the other is for treating brainwashing—obviously, the latter is more useful.

"After this is made into a magic card, it should turn into a curse-dispelling card for dispelling brainwashing cards, such as [Forbidden Love] and [Golden Treasure Chest]."

Dark finally obtained three tubes of Andersen's potion from Sister Kaleid's hands.

After thanking the nun, he exited the infirmary and met White Gawd.

Naturally, White came to visit Robert.

When the two met, White looked embarrassed, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Morning."

"Morning." Dark nodded, walking past him.

...

Of course, Dark, with three tubes of potion, couldn't run around. He quickly returned to the dormitory and placed the potion into the test tube rack.

The three golden tubes of Andersen's Potion gleamed slightly, attracting all his attention.

Dark pondered for a moment before taking out the core materials obtained in the costume party one by one and placing them on the table.

Including Andersen's potion, there were a total of five items.

①A Harpy's feather

②A Mermaid's scale

③The buttons of the Puppet Bear Zombie

④Angewomon's feather

⑤Andersen's Potion

...

"In addition to these, there is another material that can be harvested in the near future!"

Dark hugged the cat grass on his lap, looking expectantly at the blooming flower on top of its head.

It has been a month since the first use of [Magic Brain Dropper], and finally he could continue to absorb deadly sin.

"I haven't used it for a while, and I don't know if I'm getting rusty."

"Given that [Pride] and [Lust] exceeded 100 points at the same time."

"Maybe it is necessary to try another method."

Dark picked up the magic brain dropper, cleaned it, and set it aside to dry.

After a while, he suddenly narrowed his eyes, and his mental strength suddenly condensed.

At that moment, his brain was completely empty; there was nothing but a tiny black spot in the middle.

Just focusing his attention on this black spot, his entire consciousness quickly converged towards that spot, highly concentrated.

Professor Cazer probably couldn't have imagined that Dark would be able to learn the basics of [Spiritual Concentration Art] in such a short time.

After entering the spiritual concentration state, Dark deliberately constricted [Lust] and released [Pride] in accordance with the method of evoking emotions in the "Magic Brain Dropper User Guide".

Then he immediately picked up the magic brain dropper, put the sharp mouth on his temple, pinched his two fingers on the magic brain, and then let go.

A very thin black thread was immediately sucked out of his brain!

It was still a drop, but the quality contained in this drop was significantly higher than before.

Dark opened his eyes, withdrawing from the spiritual concentration state.

He didn't know until after learning the basics that maintaining the spiritual concentration state required continuous consumption of mental strength. Using this method to defend against thinking intrusion required extremely high skills.

But now was not the time to study spiritual concentration art.

He dropped that drop of Pride into the Bottle of Thoughts, carefully observing it.

He had a natural instinct for deadly sin.

After more than a month of observation and use, he had been able to have a "degree" of certainty on the amount of deadly sin.

"The amount of this drop is at least 1.5 points [Pride]."

"It seems that this method is indeed feasible."

"Improving the concentration of emotions through spiritual concentration art can make [deadly sin] easier to squeeze; thus increasing production rate."

"Continuing to use this method can increase the amount that can be drawn in a month from 10 to 15 points!"

This was undoubtedly a very good experimental result.

...

Next, Dark used the magic brain dropper again, sucked out two-thirds of [Pride] from the Bottle of Thoughts, injected it into the Worm Tree's worm branch, and then moved the cat grass over.

"Meow meow meow!"

Cat grass acted like a little monk who had been fasting for several months and finally smelled the food. It pounced on it and sucked it immediately while using its paws to hold it.

Dark looked at the way it sucked desperately, even its face also became round.

...

Soon.

Cat grass transferred the sucked [Pride] to the bud on its head.

The flower bud that had stopped growing for more than half a month finally began to grow. And this time, the bud actually bloomed!

As if feeling the itchiness on top of its head, Cat Grass raised a paw and touched the side of the flower. It stopped sucking the worm branch and crawled to Dark's feet.

Dark knelt down and picked it up, carefully observing the blooming of the flower.

This flower was cultivated using six points [Pride]. From the dark gold at the bottom to the crimson red on the petals, the whole flower was filled with a sense of extreme luxury and nobility.

But Dark actually didn't feel much relative lightness from it.

If it hadn't been deduced through experiments, it would be hard for him to imagine that the basic refining method of [Bird & Beast-type - Light Attribute] was the correct method for this core material.

"If I use this flower of pride for refining, what kind of magical spirit will I get?"

Dark took out the notebook, described the appearance of the flower of pride, and then listed a few elements on the side.

①Cat

②Pride

③Sun

④Light

⑤Plants

If Dark just picked up the first three elements, he actually had a guess.

That was the sun god of the Olympian-twelve-gods in "Digimon": Apollomon!

Apollomon, based on the lion, is both a cat and a sun god, with almost ruthless pride.

Its pre-evolutionary form → the Coronamon in the Rookie level is a little lion.

But if he picked ① and ④, he would not be able to help himself but think of Angewomon’s pre-evolutionary form → Adult Level Gatomon!

"The result of the basic refining method itself is uncertain. Perhaps both of these two kinds of magical spirits are possible."

"Apollomon is a human-formed Digimon that manipulates flames. If I want to increase the probability of creating Apollomon, I may need to add some fire-attribute materials."

"On the other hand, if I want to create the sacred Digimon that is favoured by light, I should add materials with light attributes."

Dark looked at the core material on the experimental table.

"There is no doubt that Angewomon's feathers will be a core element for creating Gatomon."

The Flower of Pride finally bloomed.

But of course Dark wouldn't pick it immediately.

He was more inclined to use it after it produced fruit.

"According to the current progress, the fruits can be harvested at this time tomorrow. I need to make a decision before then."

...

One o'clock.

Everyone's sorting cards vibrated at the same time.

All teachers and students of Saint Marian received a notice:

At three o'clock in the afternoon, a teacher-student meeting will be held in the hall on the first floor.

The principal has something to say.
