Chapter 280 Dark Demon Stays True In Essence 2.5 chapters in 1
[Identify]
[Read]
[Reconstruct]
The existing names of the three core crafting magic circles of the [Ultimate Card] originated from their purpose in the crafting process.
The first step to crafting the [ultimate card] was to identify a [magical spirit card]’s “ultimate”. Next, it was to read the identified “ultimate”. Finally, the last step was to reconstruct the “ultimate” that had been read.
As [Identify] was the starting step of the process, everything would become futile if the [magical spirit]’s ultimate couldn't be identified.
To identify the ultimate from a [magical spirit card] that one wanted, the core materials corresponding to the ultimate had to be placed in the [Reconstruct] crafting magic circle to guide the process.
Finally, the reconstruction would involve using the core materials as a core base for the reconstruction.
Understanding this process, one would easily realize that [Identify], [Read], and [Reconstruction] was like a disk reading process.
And the [magical spirit card] was like a flash drive.
[Identify] was equivalent to “searching” for an “ultimate” on the flash drive.
The “ultimate” already revealed on the card was like a document in a folder.
Whereas a potential “ultimate” that was still not shown on the card was like a “hidden file” that was protected by layers of encryption.
The difficulty in searching between the two was naturally vastly different.
Moving an “ultimate” document to the top of the folder would thus make it more searchable!
In other words, that was equivalent to getting a [magical spirit] to dig up the memory of that “ultimate” from the depths of its mind. That is, it had to recall how to utilize its “ultimate”!
Other magical spirits may not be able to do that.
But every single magical spirit that Dark owned could do that! Furthermore, it was an easy feat for them.
……
After hearing Dark’s command from in the card, Ditto could not help but recall the first time it met its master and how it used [Transform] to transform into Dark’s head.
At that point, Dark had not even placed [Phantom Magic Beast’s fur] into the [Reconstruct] crafting magic circle but the [Identify] crafting magic circle had already lit up!
That was a sign that an ultimate was going to be identified!
……
“This…” The expression on Professor Cazer’s face changed slightly unintentionally as he observed what had happened, standing behind Dark.
Dark’s crafting was somewhat unexpected to him. However, considering that Dark’s magical spirits all had above 3 intelligence, how Dark handled the crafting then seemed quite normal to him.
However, even he could not replicate how Dark handled the crafting!
“This method is not universally usable.”
Skills that could change a generation and could be passed down had to be “universally usable”.
This was true for all skills, be it “Merlin crafting magic circle”,“Dalton crafting magic circle ”or “Demeter crafting magic circle”.
Even “Alvette crafting magic circle” had some level of universality.
However, if an [ultimate card]’s crafting magic circle required the magical spirit involved to have high intelligence, that crafting magic circle could only be used exclusively.
That was unless “high intelligence” could be normalized among other magical spirits.
The moment that thought flashed across Professor Cazer’s mind, he immediately tossed it into the bin.
For an ability coveted by so many magisters, how could it be so easily proliferated?
If it did become common knowledge, the whole magic era would be subverted!
……
Professor Cazer could not help but continue observing Dark’s experiment.
After the [Identify] crafting magic circle glowed slightly, Dark continued to put the [Phantom Magic Beast’s fur] into the [Reconstruct] circle.
Next, he infused his magic energy into it to ‘guide’ and ‘fine-tune’ the process. This would make the [Identify], [Read], and [Reconstruct] magic circles light up sequentially.
After the glow from the crafting magic circles become stable, he would be able to remove the [magical spirit card] from [Identify] and start arranging the crafting magic circles such that the three circles would converge closer.
Finally, he would put the rest of the materials into the [Reconstruct] crafting magic circle so that the card could be crafted slowly and bit by bit.
It was like brewing bone soup. The core materials were the bones but other ingredients were still necessary.
This step would be more difficult than normal people thought!
……
As students did not have an accurate formula to follow, they had to personally control the type of materials they needed to place in the crafting magic circle, the number of materials, the quality of materials, etc.
It was very difficult for even an experienced magister to do this to perfection, let alone a first-year magister.
In the end, the original purpose of the lesson was just for the young magisters to have an experience so that they could have a preliminary concept of advanced crafting methods.
At the same time, Professor Cazer might also have had the idea of treating them as guinea pigs…
Children’s imaginations were always wild.
Perhaps from their behaviors, he could find the method and opportunity to perfect his crafting method.
……
Even when Dark was still in the process of crafting his [ultimate card], Professor Cazer already noticed that he had failed.
Even if the card may eventually form, it would just be a failed [ultimate card].
Professor Cazer narrowed his eyes and continued watching.
……
Just as Professor Cazer had expected, when Dark started wrapping up, he also noticed that something was wrong.
After his research on [Curse Cage] and [Fuse], he could tell from experience that there was something off during this crafting.
However, the crafting process was already at a stage where he could not change anything so he could only continue.
After two minutes, the materials had fully been crafted, and the magic crafting circles also converged into a magic card.
A shadow of a Ditto started appearing on the card.
It seemed almost successful.
Even though Dark was doubtful, he picked up the magic spell card and washed it. After that, he took out [Phantom Magic Beast： Ditto] and prepared to experiment.
At that point, his experiment had already attracted a lot of attention.
Despite sitting in the corner in the last row, he could not escape the attention of his classmates.
Even if only one person noticed, he would tell another and soon it spread like wildfire.
The whole classroom very quickly found out that Dark Demon was once again the first person to complete crafting a magic card!
“In my name, Dark Demon, magic summoning ——Phantom Magic Beast·Ditto!”
After a quick chant, a cute purple spirit appeared on the table.
Dark held up the [ultimate card] he had just crafted and used a Normal Summoning Spell to activate it.
As the white light from the surface of the ultimate card gradually grew brighter, Ditto’s body also gradually emitted light of a similar frequency
“Poof!”
Ditto transformed into [Crooked Mouth Dark]!
……
Lying on Dark’s table was a Ditto with only its face transformed to the face of “Dark” with a crooked mouth and dot eyes. Dark could not help laughing.
“Pfft!” Dianna and Rose, who had turned around from the front row, covered their mouths and could not help laughing.
The students nearby could not help tiptoeing to look over, and then all of them burst out laughing.
The classroom gradually filled with cheerful laughter.
……
In the next instance, there was a loud explosion.
“BOOM” Someone’s crucible had exploded.
“Ah!” Screams quickly followed.
Professor Cazer hastily waved his wand, and water suddenly appeared and extinguished the flames.
However, the unidentified liquid which had poured out from the crucible had already eroded the tabletop, emitting a strong stench!
"Open the window, open the window!" The students yelled wildly.
Regardless of whether they actually smelled the stench, they shouted crazily.
The students from the Noble House, sitting near windows, quickly opened the windows to allow the stench to escape.
"My God, dear Gawd, what exactly did you put in it?!"
