The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life-Chapter 165: Dark Demon encounters a formidable enemy
Chapter 165 Dark Demon encounters a formidable enemy
***edited by x10***
"Bang!"
White slapped the card table with his palm, his face twisted in disbelief.
The core ability of [Forbidden Love] was indeed based on charm, but it was impossible for a magical spirit to get rid of the brainwashing control on its own with an intelligence level of less than 3 unless the corresponding spell-breaking card was used.
However, Dianna didn't activate any magic cards at all!
"How is this possible?"
White simply couldn't understand what had happened.
His fingers holding the magic card clenched involuntarily.
No matter what, the effect of [Forbidden Love] had expired.
And after Radiant Python's ultimate finally entered Cooldown, it became difficult to cause damage to the two magical spirits that were in the energy form.
In just one round, the originally good situation was completely ruined!
White's palms were sweating.
What should he do next?
...
It wasn't just White who was surprised.
Professor Silver's surprise was no less than White's.
As a professor at Knight House, she was definitely more worried about White. She was also very clear about the effect of that [Forbidden Love].
"To be able to rely on the bond between the magical spirits and forcibly remove the brainwashing..."
"I didn't expect Dianna to have such a strong talent as a Spiritual Magister!"
"No wonder Pavar likes her so much."
"They are literally carved out of the same mould!"
...
"This is really unexpected."
Dark gasped in surprise.
Dianna was often guided by him, but now she had clearly exceeded his expectations.
Moreover, while he was still thinking of establishing a "Bond" with the magical spirits using the method of "Breeding fondness through familiarity" after he refined the [Zoo] card, unexpectedly, Dianna had already established a "Bond" with her [Bear Spirit]!
"Is it because it is easier to establish a bond with the magical spirit with a purer soul?"
Dark couldn't help but think of what Professor Claire had been teaching recently.
Professor Claire had also established a Bond with her magical spirits before she developed [Zoo].
At that time, her heart was very pure, and it was full of pure love for magical spirits.
There weren't any other impure thoughts.
And she also didn't know much about "Spiritual Bond Summoning", just like Dianna at this time.
"Perhaps Dianna is better suited to be the successor of the Sage of Beasts than me?"
Of course, sometimes, the most suitable one might not be the best for the job.
Dark continued to follow the match.
...
The duel was now in its fourth round.
But there were not many cards left on both sides.
White had only one magic card left.
He knew so well what the last magic card was that he didn't even have the desire to pull it out.
That was his [Phantom Magic Beast].
The first magical spirit of every little magister.
He liked that Stag very much, but it was a pity that the stats of [Phantom Magic Beast: Stag] with only one star was too low.
One-star [Phantom Magic Beast: Stag] was no different from those trash cards that were used when there was no high-star magical spirit that required sacrifice summoning.
He thought so.
So he didn't pull out [Phantom Magic Beast: Stag] in the end.
...
"The battle is over!"
"Winner: Dianna Great Bayer!"
...
White, who had no more magic cards, was unable to stop Bear Spirit's attack in the end, and the Magic Ball's life barrier representing his Health Points was completely shattered!
[End Phase]
White used his hand to brace himself against the card table, his knees almost gave out as if he had experienced a life-and-death battle.
In the first in-class game, he lost to Emma.
In the second in-class competition, he couldn’t even defeat Dianna.
Was he not progressing?
It did seem like he was progressing.
It was just that his classmates were making progress faster than him!
So.
What should he do next?
...
"Hey, Gawd."
In the distance, Dianna's voice came.
White barely looked up.
Dianna blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "What was your last magic card? Why didn't you take it out?"
White glanced at the last magic card left in the card slot, pulled it out, and put it back into the card pouch, then said casually, "Nothing, a trash card."
Then he turned around and stepped off the stage.
His back looked very desolate.
...
The students on the sidelines probably didn't expect that White would be knocked out at the round of 16.
Many people seemed surprised.
But they also couldn’t help admitting that Dianna's strength was indeed really strong.
The students of Noble House looked very excited.
The morale of Knight House was visibly suppressed.
The Magister House student, Sara, whispered to her friends around her, pointing at White and then at Dianna from time to time.
The Knight House student, Emma, just sighed while playing with the winged gold coin in her hand, and then left.
There was now only Robert waiting for White below the player platform.
"White, don't be discouraged."
Robert quickly put his arms around White's shoulders and comforted him.
"Dianna's magic card must have been made with Dark’s help!"
"Besides, we've also made some progress, haven't we?"
"After we master more knowledge, we will definitely be able to refine stronger magical spirits!"
White took a deep breath and forced a smile on his face: "Ah, you are right. We still need to go to the professor's office tonight to serve our detention."
...
Meanwhile,
Dianna, who got off the platform, found Dark and Rose, and showed off proudly, "How were my little bears!?"
Dark said sincerely: "They were really amazing!"
Dianna: "Heh, heh"
Rose hurriedly reminded: "Don't be complacent, you have to replenish the magic energy of your magic cards as soon as possible."
Dianna pouted, "Okay."
...
With the end of the round of 16, the eight players moving to the next round were finally decided.
In the round of 8 next, it would be double-elimination matches, with each player having two chances.
But the matches would not start right away.
The eight players needed to replenish the magic energy of their cards.
It was not until half an hour later that everyone gathered together again. After Professor Jones made a short summary and speech, she announced the new schedule.
...
Dark looked at the schedule: "My opponent is... ⑨?"
Dianna said excitedly, "I'm number ?!"
Rose counted with her fingers: "Number ⑨ should be Sara Swati from Magister House. Number ? is from Fool House... Dianna is really lucky!"
In other words, Dark's luck wasn't great.
"Sara Swati?"
Feeling the gaze, Dark turned his head and saw Sara who was already watching him.
Sara Swati was the best student of the first-year students at Magister House. Despite her extremely poor physical strength, her complexion looked quite healthy. Her white hair was tied up and draped over her chest. Her eye color was lighter than her skin tone, the bridge of her nose was high, and her lips were full and very attractive.
Dark smiled politely and nodded to the other party.
Although the two have not said a word to each other since the beginning of the school year, they actually met almost every day.
→ They were regulars at the library!
Without a doubt, she was a formidable opponent!
