The sky gradually darkened, and the moon rose from the west.

Dark paused to pet his cat, then finished the dinner brought by the Imp before beginning the second round of experiments.

This time, he first used the basic alchemy method of [Plant-type – Light Attribute] for the炼成.

The result was not ideal.

After gaining experience from making [Junk Slime], he originally thought that the “plant-type” classification should be correct.

But it seemed not to be the case.

Perhaps the reason [Junk Slime] could be refined was that his fingernail was the true core material.

On the contrary, the subsequent炼成 using the basic alchemy method of [Beast-type – Light Attribute] went unusually smoothly.

It was just that in the final step of filling the core material, the Cat Grass’s cat fur was clearly not enough!

No matter how many strands of cat fur were put into the No. 1煉成 Array, the array’s light remained dim.

This phenomenon was described in textbooks as being caused by insufficient quality of the core material!

Dark immediately realized that [Beast-type – Light Attribute] should be the correct method, but merely absorbing a tiny bit of cat fur from [Arrogance] was not enough to complete this magic card.

It needed higher quality core material!

That is, the fruit jointly nurtured by Cat Grass and [Arrogance]!

“Finally confirmed the use of the fruit.”

Dark was overjoyed.

There was plenty of cat fur, but only one fruit.

All previous failures were to usher in the final success.

He picked up a pen and wrote in his notebook:

① Beast-type

② Light Attribute

③ Fruit (Arrogance)

…

The experiment came to an end.

Now, he just needed to wait for the beginning of next month.

Dark set up a lounge chair on the balcony, held the Cat Grass, and read “Dress-Up Master” as entertainment.

He wasn’t really interested in dress-up cards, but precisely because of that, he could read it without reservation.

The beginning of “Dress-Up Master” introduced the simple methods of making dress-up cards, and the rest were various bizarre costume designs.

Dark even saw a set of clothes with an S embroidered on the front and a B on the back.

In short, it was quite interesting.

…

Time gradually passed.

The moonlight grew brighter.

Just as Dark was about to fall asleep, a purple butterfly, trailing a long tail of fluorescent light, gracefully flew across his field of vision.

After a few seconds of delay.

Dark suddenly perked up, his body instantly straightening.

“Meow!”

The Cat Grass was startled and let out a cry.

Dark opened his eyes wide, watching pink and purple butterflies continuously fly out of the room, their long glowing tails forming a brilliant Milky Way, carrying a hint of mystery and splendor.

“What’s going on?”

Dark reached out and picked up the Cat Grass, placing it on the lounge chair, while he himself quickly walked into the room, taking out the Phalaenopsis card from the card pack on his desk.

Without any magic injected, this flower card activated on its own.

Butterflies continuously flew out from the card face, dancing around it.

Dark looked up at the clock on the wall: nine forty-three.

Normally, he should have been preparing for his bedtime routine.

But today, having put too much effort into the experiment, he ended up dozing off while reading.

However, it didn’t have much impact.

Instead, because of the short nap, he was now full of energy.

He frowned, and finally put on his school uniform jacket hanging on the hanger.

Checked his cards, put on his card pack.

In fact, the origin of the flower card was related to the reduction of [Bliss], which was extremely important to him.

“I feel like if I don’t move soon, the melon will get cold.”

“It’s clear from Professor Cazel’s actions that he actually wants me to investigate further.”

“But he himself seems unwilling to act personally, he’s in a rather contradictory state of mind.”

“Is there some difficult reason to choose?”

“Should I trust him?”

…

Dark quickly walked to the door, but as he opened it, he suddenly remembered something and turned back to take out the [Tuxedo Mask Set] from the drawer and put it into his card pack.

“Unconsciously, I already have nine cards.”

The public lounge in the noble’s dormitory, almost ten o’clock, was already empty.

Dark walked down the stairs, and the magic lamp on the wall automatically lit up.

He didn’t linger in the public lounge but pushed the door open and walked out.

The golem guarding the tower was coiled up with its eyes closed, showing no reaction.

Dark quickly crossed the bridge and entered the castle.

St. Marian’s castle was interconnected, and golems patrolled every night.

However, golems would only activate their warning function before midnight, and only enter “guard” mode after midnight, arresting students if found.

So, midnight every day was the curfew time for the entire castle.

Dark took out his Sorting Card and summoned the Imp.

The Imp sensed Dark’s thoughts and couldn’t help but show a hint of excitement.

The dull and boring academy life had always suppressed its nature.

It was an Imp, an Imp destined to stand above the heavens in the future!

Night was its domain.

Above the night sky, was its throne!

“Come here.”

“Woo woo woo!”

Dark looked at the Imp, whose expression changed freely, with a dark face, and helplessly said, “Do you still remember the path we took last time when we tracked Witt? Take me there.”

The Imp immediately regained its composure and quickly patted its face, saying, “Of course I remember! Who am I?”

Dark smiled, “Then hurry up.”

Night was indeed a good environment.

He felt as if the emotions that had been suppressed until now had found an outlet, slowly flowing out.

He waved his hand, and the butterflies, following his guidance, formed a colorful ribbon.

Professor Cazel said that this flower card would guide him to the source, but in reality, they were just fluttering around the card, aimlessly.

Dark guessed it was because the distance was too far.

Fortunately, he had tracked Witt for a distance before, so he could get closer.

Therefore, he followed the Imp quickly, first arriving at the window where he had looked at the moon before, then to the next floor, crossing the external bridge, and entering another area of the castle.

While being careful to avoid the golems, he continued to advance.

About ten minutes later, Dark finally found the Archmage statue he had used for cover last time.

It was here that the butterflies suddenly reacted, flying in a specific direction.

“Here it comes.”

Dark realized he was within range.

Last time, the Imp lost Witt not far ahead.

Considering that this was a game world derived from “Harry Potter,” there couldn’t be no secret passages in the castle.

Witt must have used a secret passage to evade the Imp’s tracking.

Dark followed along until the butterflies stuck to a wall and stopped flying.

He realized that his destination should be somewhere inside the wall.

“This way?”

Dark narrowed his eyes and quickly explored the wall.
