The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life
chapter-15

Dark glanced at the magic brain dropper in One-eyed Morgan's hand and frowned, "Why does this magic brain dropper look so crappy?"

One-eyed Morgan casually said, "It's been stored for a long time, of course it will be crappy."

Then he added, "If it's not, I don't think you can afford it."

Dark would no longer get angry with this little thing, he simply said, "Show it to me."

One-eyed Morgan passed the magic brain dropper.

Dark pinched the sides of the magic brain dropper's neck and moved it before his eyes to observe carefully.

The magic brain of this magic brain dropper was really old, but it seemed like it was more than just being kept for a long time.

He had studied about this thing carefully before.

The magic brain dropper was a living thing. Although its intelligence level was only 0.1, basically the same as Paramecium, as long as it was alive, it would get sick and old.

The normal lifespan of the magic brain dropper was 10 years. In other words, this magic brain dropper may not be able to live for long!

He couldn't help asking, "How old is this dropper?"

One-eyed Morgan didn't respond to Dark immediately and then he unexpectedly gave a very precise number, "Eight years and six months."

"So it only has slightly more than ten months to live? It's not unacceptable."

Dark thought for a moment, then looked up, "How much?"

One-eyed Morgan grinned, "1,000 credits."

In fact, even if a magic brain dropper had one year to live, it was not something 1,000 credits could buy!

One-eyed Morgan quoted this price simply to prove that Dark could not afford 1,000 credits!

In other words, just to annoy him.

But Dark didn't know about it. He thought it was a normal price, and even tried to haggle over the price.

Because one-eyed Morgan insisted on the price, Dark had no choice but to say, "Fine, 1000 it is then. Please wrap it up for me."

One-eyed Morgan said with suspicion, "Pay first."

Dark reached out his hand and took out the sorting card and looked at him.

One-eyed Morgan hesitated for a while, and also took out the merchant card specially prepared by Saint Marian for the merchants.

Dark put the sorting card on top of the merchant card, and with just a thought, 1000 credits were drawn from the sorting card and transferred to the merchant card of One-eyed Morgan.

One-eyed Morgan picked up the merchant card and took a closer look, his eyes became strange.

He couldn't figure it out. How did a freshman, who had just started school less than a month ago, get a full 1,000 credits?

But, he had already said its price was 1000 credits, so he couldn't go back on his words.

Then, he took out an empty bottle from the cabinet, poured some clean water into it, and put the magic brain dropper in the water. He then screwed the bottle cap and handed it to Dark.

"Here."

Dark blinked, took the bottle, and turned to leave.

But as soon as he reached the door, one-eyed Morgan's voice came from behind him.

"Wait, what's your name?"

"Dark Demon."

...

1000 credits was also quite expensive for Dark.

From the time he planned to go to Traveller Street to purchase the necessary items, Dark began to accumulate credits purposefully.

As a first year student, it was too easy for him to get credits.

Even a freshman at Magister House would not be able to take a credit away from him!

The only competitor he had was Emma Mortis.

Every time the professor asked a question, Emma would always rush to answer the question.

Dark was annoyed by this, so he changed his approach and helped the professor to "mark students' homework" to get extra credits.

Especially for arithmetic classes, Professor Lily even wanted to give him the podium.

So the credits he got in the first month were exactly one thousand and two hundred!

Even Emma, who also had a lot of credits, couldn't compete with him.

After spending a thousand, Dark went to the grocery store and bought a set of the most basic experimental tools.

That ended his trip to Traveller Street.

...

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

While most of the freshmen were still hanging around on Traveller Street, Dark had already returned to his dorm.

He must learn how to use [magic brain dropper] correctly before the end of this weekend.

Prior to this, he had borrowed related books from the library and checked them for a period of time.

This "Magic Brain Dropper User Guide", hidden on the twenty-third level of the bookshelf, described in detail about almost all the uses of magic brain droppers.

It included not only the method of absorbing a specific memory, but also the method of how to control the emotion so that it could be absorbed more easily.

Using magic brain droppers was a very dangerous thing, requiring extremely high magic energy operation skills and the necessary amount of knowledge.

Once the operation was careless, it was very likely that part of the memory would be permanently absorbed and directly cause amnesia!

In history, there was even a very unlucky magister who accidentally sucked his emotion "sadness" away forever, and he could never feel the sadness again.

Among them, the safest and easiest way to use was called the "Dragonfly Touching Water method".

In short, it was to press the pointed mouth of the magic brain dropper against the temples, and then gently squeeze the "magic brain" instead of the rubber cap, and suck the natural overflowing emotions, desires and other things into the "magic brain".

As long as the person didn't get into deep contact with the brain, the danger could be minimized!

Dark had decided to use this method!

This was probably the only method he could currently use.

Putting the other prepared instruments on the low cabinet beside the bed, Dark laid down and stayed calm first according to the method taught in the book.

After the breath became smooth, he could concentrate and stimulate a certain emotion or desires through brain activities!

But he omitted this step.

Instead, he directly picked up the magic brain dropper, pressed the sharp mouth against his temple, pinched the two fingers on the magic brain, and then released it.

A very thin black line was sucked out of his brain in this way!

"As I expected, there is no need to concentrate on stimulating emotions. My [Pride] has already leaked out."

Dark thought silently, not knowing whether he should be happy or not.

But no matter what, he must not be angry!

"System, show me the indicators."

[Yes ]

After a while.

Seven indicators appeared in Dark's vision.

[Pride:112]

[Envy:44]

[Wrath:96]

[Sloth:60]

[Greed:82]

[Gluttony: 58]

[Lust: 90]

The Pride indicator was already over 100!

With a strand of black lines being sucked away, [Pride] finally changed from 112 to 111!

"YA-"

The magic brain dropper suddenly screamed!

Dark hurriedly stopped pressing.

He had read from the book that the scream of the magic brain dropper meant its magic brain capacity had reached its limit.

"In other words, it can only suck away one point of my [Pride]."

He sat up cautiously, and after getting out of bed, he arrived before the low cabinet. He then moved a semi-finished blank magic card on the low cabinet to the middle.

This kind of semi-finished blank magic card required extremely high craftsmanship, and it was very time-consuming to manufacture.

So, most magisters would choose to buy them directly from the store.

The blank magic card on Traveller Street was sold at 10 credits.

According to the exchange rate, it was more expensive than the market price.

The price difference between this would attract more travel agents to the Traveller Street to settle down.

Dark only purchased five blank magic cards.

He put the sharp mouth of the magic brain dropper against the blank magic card, and then, ignoring the scream of the magic brain dropper, he squeezed the magic brain violently!

"Ya! Ya! Ya…."

One point of [Pride] stored in the magic brain was instantly spit out on the blank magic card!

A drop of dark golden thick ink suddenly spread out on the original snow-white surface of the card!
