The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life

Chapter 7 There is Something Wrong with Dark Demon's Familiar Spirit

Whether it was a freshman from the Noble House or a freshman from the Knight House, everyone inside the room couldn't help but talk to each other the moment they heard the words 'Wishing Cup' come out from Professor Silver's mouth.

Robert, who was seemingly unconcerned about the fuss he made earlier, was the loudest freshman from the Knight House and kept on shouting with excitement to the extent that his neck had turned red.

"Hey, White! Did you hear what the Professor said? As long as we get the Wishing Cup, everyone from the Knight House can make a wish!"

"Don't get too excited now, Robert. The professor only said that we would get the chance to make a wish, and didn't exactly tell us that it would be fulfilled."

Although White was also very excited, he obviously retained a clearer mind contrary to Robert.

On the other side of the room, Dianna's voice was the loudest among the students from the Noble House. She yelled excitedly at Rose, but was still clearly unsatisfied as she leaped towards where Dark was and shouted, "If we obtained the Wishing Cup, I want to wish for chocolate walls, candy lights, fluffy bed, cake tops, sugar cake carpets, and a pudding-upholstered-fried-chicken candy house!"

Seeing how Dianna enthusiastically described the appearance of the candy house she dearly wanted, Dark was almost corrupted by her overly cheerful emotions.

Noticing that his [Greed +1] have not yet appeared in his field of vision, Dark quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He then gave a refreshing smile to Dianna and reminded her, "Dianna, Greed leads to nothing."

If the Wishing Cup could really fulfill any kinds of wishes, there was no way an overpowered item like that would be used as a reward for the students of St. Marian Academy.

Judging from the inscription written on the Wishing Cup, most of the wishes that were fulfilled were only trivial things.

*Otherwise, I would want to make a straightforward wish and asked to extract the blood of the Demon God flowing within me, and make this stupid Broken System pack its shit and leave my body.*

...

This time, Professor Silver did not use the [Silence Card], but instead waited for everyone to tone their voices down before saying, "In addition to determining the House Cup's winner, the credits are St. Marian's hard currency. Using these credits, you can go to the Traveller Street to purchase anything you want. Additionally, you can also use them as a means of trading with any teachers and students from St. Marian. Of course, every transaction will be recorded by the sorting card, and only legitimate transactions will be accepted by the school. And just to be clear, does everyone present here know how to obtain credits?"

Professor Silver put her hands on the desk while scanning the room with a serious face.

As a half-elf, Professor Silver had inherited the ethereal beauty and longevity of the elves.

Although she always looked serious, she would occasionally show a soft expression when in private.

——That side of hers turned out to be her charming point.

In "Duel! St. Marian Super XX Academy", Professor Silver was the most popular professor among the players. And of course, she was also a playable character.

If she hadn't shown such a serious and rigid first impression, which would have greatly reduced some of her charms and favorability, Dark's *great powers* might have exploded again.

And if that really happened, it wasn't a matter of whether or not he would attend her classes, but a matter of life and death.

Being asked such a question by Professor Silver, students from both Houses didn't really know how to respond. They seemed to be the same as Dark, and didn't care much about the school rules.

After a while, one of the female students finally raised her hand.

Professor Silver turned her head towards the student and directly called her name out, "Emma Mortis, you can answer it."

Emma Mortis was a brown-haired little girl with a round and baby-like face. She seemed to grow slower than her peers, but was at least taller than Dianna.

She was a little nervous when she stood up, which caused her to accidentally bite her tongue. After a while, she finally answered smoothly, "There are a lot of ways to obtain credits. The easiest one is by taking classes seriously. You can get 10 credits for each class. Answering the professor's questions correctly can also earn you extra points. Furthermore, the results of the final exams can also be converted into credits.. and, uh.. Ah! By participating in the Magic Duel!"

"Excellent, Mortis. I'll give you 5 points for that."

Professor Silver clapped and signaled Emma to sit down, and then continued to add, "She's right about earning extra points by answering questions asked by the professor correctly. However, if any of you misbehaved during the class, the Professors also have the right to deduct some points. In addition, the Magic Duel Competition in St. Marian is highly valued, in which case, an enormous amount of credits can be obtained by every participating House. As to how one can participate, the professor in charge of the duel will tell you. Now then, let's officially start our class. Please open your Elementary Summoning Guide textbook."

…

"Miss know-it-all?"

Dark glanced at Emma's back once again, realizing that she should be the last heroine in the protagonist's harem trio.

However, because of Emma's fluffy brown hair and baby-like face, it made Dark unable to harbor any interest towards her.

Dark neither wanted to be in contact with the harem members, nor did he feel the need to avoid them on purpose.

Especially with the fact that he was not at all attracted by the appearance of the heroine.

After that, Professor Silver began to teach about the most basic summoning techniques.

Summoning was a technology based on magic cards that could summon various things that were sealed inside it, such as spirits, items, potions and so on.

It was said that if you advanced at a deeper level, there were various types of summoning techniques that could be performed, such as sacrifice summoning, fusion summoning, ritual summoning, and reversal summoning.

Some magic cards were also equipped with special summoning spells!

The proficiency of the summoning technique determined how many magic cards a dueler could use at the same time.

In short, if you need 5 seconds to cast a summoning spell, and your opponent only needs 3 seconds, they can attack 2 seconds earlier than you.

And if your Summoning CD (Cooldown) is 30 seconds long, you wouldn't even get the chance to use your third magic card within the one minute range.

Just like what the famous dueling master Roman Fomynok had once said, "Summoning can determine the upper and lower limits of a dueler."

The task that the students needed to perform in this lesson was to use the summoning technique that could summon the familiar spirit stored in the sorting card.

Professor Silver spent half an hour talking about the school regulations, another half about teaching the initial theory of summoning, and finally another half that was left for the students to experiment.

After Dark determined that the [Greed] indicator had not increased, he tried to perform the summoning technique by following the steps written in the textbook.

Because he had seen the preview inside the common room this morning, his progress was faster than most of the other freshmen.

And because the sorting card itself was a beginner's item, the setting of the summoning activation was easier than the general magic card.

And, baam! Dark successfully summoned the familiar spirit that was sealed inside the sorting card at 9:30!

Sorting cards were a kind of composite magic cards that were very special and with overly powerful built-in functions.

Because the students themselves were the ones who completed the last step of producing their sorting cards, the familiar spirits each of them summoned were different.

"In the name of Dark Demon, Come, o' spirit! Familiar Spirit Summoning!"

Using a sorting card to perform the summoning greatly reduced its difficulty because of the card's special summoning spell function.

As Dark chanted the spell correctly, the magic energy in his body was poured into the sorting card through his fingertips.

As a result, the sorting card shone with brilliant light which attracted every students' attention.

Emma, ​​who had also seen the preview, but failed even after attempting to summon several times, ​​couldn't help but to look over.

Behind the shining white light, where Dark's handsome face and peaceful eyes could be seen, Emma couldn't help but sigh at the sight as it left a deep impression on her.

Emma gritted her teeth and stopped looking at Dark, not wanting to see what he had summoned. She quickly flipped through the textbook, looked for errors and mistakes that she might have missed and tried summoning again.

Her competitive personality was completely revealed.

...

However, contrary to what Emma was thinking, Dark was having a hard time.

He suddenly noticed that the magic energy that was being poured into the sorting card was gushing faster and faster, as if it was actively absorbing all of his magic energy!

The magic energy that had increased due to the awakening phase of the demon god bloodline was almost exhausted.

At the same time, a hexagram magic circle suddenly appeared on the sorting card!

"This is…!"

Looking at the familiar spirit he had summoned through the sorting card, Dark felt that a big problem had just occurred.

What appeared was a little demon with an appearance of a bat.

Furthermore, it was not an ordinary little demon!
