Dark's knowledge of the magic brain dropper basically ca from the "Magic Brain Dropper User Guide".
Using the magic brain dropper, not only could one draw out a certain emotion, one could even draw out mories from one's mind.
But the use of the magic brain dropper was a very dangerous thing. Even with extrely high magic energy controlling ability and the necessary amount of knowledge, there was no guarantee that there would be no accidents.
It was precisely because of this that Dark never dared to go deep into his mind easily, but only used the "Dragonfly Touching Water thod" to draw [Deadly Sin] from outside his mind.
After all, inserting a tube into his head was a really scary thing; he couldn't accept it both physically and ntally!
And deep mind extraction would be too much even just once a month.
Nor was it necessarily better than drawing from the outside the mind.
So this ti, with the opportunity to make a wish to improve his ability, Dark also preferred to improve his exterior extraction ability.
Not the advanced technique of inserting a magic brain dropper into the mind, but a thod to thin the "brain barrier" in conjunction with the "Dragonfly Touching Water thod".
Simply put, it was to find a way to reduce the mind's ability to withstand emotional changes in a short period of ti, so as to achieve the effect of "easier to leak out".
But in fact, the level of sophistication of this technique was not necessarily lower than the technique of extracting emotions from deep inside the mind.
...
Dark was thinking like this in his heart when he made a wish.
The resulting Wishing Force was then absorbed by the Holy Grail and the feedback would be given accordingly.
...
After scrutinizing that wishlist, Dark had actually learned so skills.
If he wanted to increase the probability of making a wish co true, the best way was to not make the wish too specific.
For example, he shouldn't make a wish like "I want to improve my strength tenfold", but "I want to improve my strength".
In this case, the probability that the wish would co true would be much higher.
This was what he did this ti.
...
About two or three minutes later, the Holy Grail finally had so reactions!
As if a star had dropped in, the "wine" in the cup suddenly rippled outwards, like a starry night spreading out, sending out circles of dark waves.
Closing his eyes, Dark suddenly "saw" a scene.
The starlight that fell into his mind turned into the knowledge he coveted, and as if it had already been mastered by him in the past, this knowledge was now just a piece of mory in his mind.
He really got a response!
...
"How is it?" Principal Arte asked softly.
Dark opened his eyes with excitent: "It feels great!"
Principal Arte chuckled: "Looks like it worked?"
Dark nodded slightly: "In a way."
Principal Arte raised her wand again : "Then let's leave here first."
As she pointed her wand towards the Holy Grail, the ripples like the starry night shrank rapidly, and then the "wine" in the cup gradually receded, leaving only a thin layer in the end.
The Holy Grail still exuded an unique aura, but it had lost its previous charm.
Then the two exited the secret room.
Principal Arte locked the door, pulled out the door key, and the door leading to the secret room disappeared instantly, and the wall was restored to its original state.
It was only then that the principal said again: "You can actually succeed on the first try. It seems like you are very lucky."
Dark: "My luck is always good at critical monts."
Principal Arte: "Do you mind telling what kind of wish you made?"
Dark: "Of course I don't mind."
This was actually a necessary procedure after making a wish.
Dark already knew this when Principal Arte took out her wish list.
After the annual Holy Grail Wishing session, students would report their wishes to facilitate school statistics.
Therefore, the wish he made, on the surface, had nothing to do with the bloodline of the demon god.
Emotions and mory were his long-standing research topics.
"You've actually been using a magic brain dropper?" Principal Arte was still surprised, showing obvious dissuasive intent.
Dark explained that he was just using the "Dragonfly Touching Water thod" to scratch the surface of mind.
Only then did Principal Arte breathe a sigh of relief, but she still said, "Even if you just extract it from the outside, it can't completely eliminate the danger. I personally suggest that you'd better wait until you get to the third year- No, only try this subject after you get to the fourth year."
However, she then praised: "But your wish is very clever. You didn't wish to obtain a knowledge that delves deeper into the mind, but sothing on the surface, which is a more secure choice. If what I think is correct, you should have learned a debuff-like mind magic from the Holy Grail."
Dark was impressed by how quick the principal figured out what kind of wish he had made: "Yes, I just wanted to master so knowledge related to the magic brain dropper."
Principal Arte: "The difficulty of learning Mind Magic is second to none among many types of magic. Without a huge body of knowledge as a frawork, it is difficult to make achievents in this area. You should already have the foundation of Mind Magic, right?"
Dark; "Professor Cazer has taught Spiritual Concentration Art."
Principal Arte: "No wonder. This is the premise that your wish can be fulfilled."
...
Mind Magic - [Soulless Curse]!
A Mind Magic with almost the sa effect as [Soulless Water]!
Using Soulless Curse on people could make people lose consciousness in a short period of ti, and at the sa ti, the bond between the soul and the body would beco loose, and the Thought Substances would float, making it easier to be stripped from the mind.
Because the learning difficulty of [Soulless Curse] was too high, [Soulless Water] was hence created.
Human beings infused with Soulless Water were the perfect seedbed for demons.
In the era when demons still existed, Soulless Water was the most commonly used potion for demons to conduct possession experints.
Although this was considered a very evil magic by many people, magic itself had no division of good or evil.
The professors at the Saint Marian Academy were particularly clear in this regard.
...
Although the [Soulless Curse] that Dark had learned by relying on the Holy Grail was only entry level, having a difficult entry level was the scariest thing.
Of course, if he could find a follow-up learning thod in the future, he would have the opportunity to further expand his knowledge.
...
Unknowingly, the ti for the academy curfew was approaching.
So although Dark benefited a lot from the brief chat with Principal Arte on the topic of emotion research, he still needed to leave now.
After saying goodbye to the principal, he left the principal's office with a reward of 10,000 credits.
The reward of 10,000 credits was a huge sum of money for a first-year student.
If it was converted to sacred coins, it would be 160,000 sacred coins.
But if he really used it, he would spend it all very soon.
However, Dark didn't want to think too much about it. He just hoped to use these 10,000 credits to successfully craft the [Fusion] card.
...
With the arrival of January, the temperature in Saint Marian dropped another level.
Walking alone in the cold castle, Dark felt like he would freeze at any ti.
He cupped his hands and blew hot air into it, thinking that maybe he should install a heater in the dorm.
At the sa ti, he wondered if his magical spirits had done their howork seriously?
Basic education was not sothing that could be achieved overnight.
Dark actually didn't hold out much hope, so any results would be a pleasant surprise.
As the new sester started, the dueling club would begin to recruit new mbers
With his current strength, it would be very easy for him to pass the test, but participating in a regular duel competition required a minimum of forty magic cards.
If the number of cards in the deck was less than 40, one could only participate in the Rookie Tournant.
Generally, first- and second-year students would be assigned to this group.
Dark was very excited just thinking about it.
...
After greeting the Feathered Serpent golem that guarded the tower gate, Dark entered the common room of the Noble House tower.
The excitent of the opening ceremony had not cooled down yet, and there were still a dozen people left in the common room.
But most of them were either reading or playing chess, very quiet.
Noble House was nowhere near as loud as Knight House, nor as quiet as Magister House, an atmosphere like this was very rare.
In normal tis, Dark would probably sit in a common room like this for a while.
But not tonight.
He still had a lot to do!
...
"Click!"
The mont the lock was unlocked, Dark could clearly feel the large movent in the dormitory.
When he pushed the door open, he saw the magical spirits sitting in a row obediently, with the exception of Trash Sli, all doing their howork.
But with just one glance, he knew they were pretending...
"Have you learned to pretend?" Dark laughed out in anger.
Then a thunderstorm followed.
The two magical spirits who had done the least howork were asked to co out and punished to face the wall.
After Dark scolded the rest of the magical spirits again for a while, he took out the experintal equipnt and began to do the [Deadly Sin] extraction experint.
There was not much ti left tonight, so he could only do this experint.
"Pride 105, Wrath 89, Greed 103, Lust 106."
"Maybe I'll start with Greed... no, start with Soulless Curse's experint!"
"DemiDevimon."
"Yes!"
...
The full spell of [Soulless Curse] was extrely long, at least five minutes from beginning to end at a normal speaking rate.
But using a simple incantation could shorten this ti to less than a minute.
The entry-level [Soulless Curse] used a simple spell. Its effect was not as good as [Soulless Water] for the ti being, but if the effect was too good, it would only make Dark feel troubled.
When a mage cast a spell, they would be able to modify the magic within the range.
For example, remove so effects and increase the proportion of so effects.
[Soulless Curse] would cause people to lose consciousness.
The [Soulless Curse] Dark learned by relying on the Holy Grail had its own control thod to strip the unconscious effect, and would not cause the caster to "lose consciousness".
And the duration of the overall effect was extrely short, less than three minutes.
In other words, without the need for [Andersen's dicine], Dark could return to normal after three minutes.
If this level of [Soulless Curse] was evaluated by the normal magic evaluation system, it would definitely fail.
But what Dark needed was this failed [Soulless Curse]!
...
DemiDevimon walked over with a sad face, it would rather face the wall.
With only wings and no hands, it could only stand on one foot and write with the other foot when doing howork. It was very hard.
DemiDevimon was envious every ti when it saw Hawlucha, who also had wings but claws on it.
So there was a reason for it not to do howork - but this reason certainly wouldn't work in front of Dark.
"Is there a little red flower reward for helping the experint?" DemiDevimon, who reluctantly ca to its master, asked aggrievedly.
Dark gave a big smile: "Of course."
...
"Soulless Curse!"
"Ah!" DemiDevimon scread, but nothing happened.
All the magical spirits were looking at it curiously, allowing it to enjoy a much-anticipated actor experience.
Dark then took out the [Card of Happiness] that he hadn't used for a long ti.
As DemiDevimon was enveloped in the light of [Card of Happiness], the expression of pain on its face was fleeting, and a smile blood on its face, revealing a look of contentnt.
"It's definitely more effective than using [Card of Happiness] alone."
After trying to talk to DemiDevimon while it was under the effect of [Card of Happiness], Dark discovered that its mind was still very clear, and it didn't lose its consciousness or fell into a confused state.
As long as it was properly controlled, it would not affect the experintal process.
"It seems feasible!"
This was originally a trial experint for safety reasons.
But now it seed that the [Soulless Curse] bestowed by the Holy Grail t his needs in every way.
Dark put away the [Card of Happiness] and waited quietly for three minutes.
Three minutes later, DemiDevimon, who made a fool of itself, fled to the bunk bed and got into the cute little quilt, crying, only showing half of the soles of its feet.
When Dark was about to start the [Deadly Sin] extraction experint, it quickly ran back and tried desperately to remind him that he should reward it with a little red flower.
Dark gave it a small red flower, which he then took back imdiately.
Helping with the experint should indeed be rewarded, but being lazy should also be punished.
"Maybe this is what they call a carrot and a big stick." Dark couldn't help chuckling.
Demidevimon: "Ahhhhh!"
……
After the safety of [Soulless Curse] was verified, Dark started the formal experint.
This ti what he wanted to test was not [Greed], but [Wrath]!
He wanted to see if the [Deadly Sin] with less than 100 points on the indicator could overflow his head, and then if he could use the "Dragonfly Touching Water thod" to extract it. This was his main purpose of the experint at present.
Before that, it was necessary to use [Spiritual Concentration Art] to make his mind highly concentrated.
[Spiritual Concentration Art] and [Soulless Curse] seed to conflict, but they were actually not.
[Spiritual Concentration Art] would make the inner mind highly concentrated, whereas [Soulless Curse] would loosen the outer barrier of the mind.
And then with careful control, the thought substances could be drawn out of the mind.
Dark picked up the magic brain dropper, disinfected it, and then let it dry.
After a while, he suddenly squinted his eyes, gathering his focus, and entering the spiritual concentration state.
"Soulless Curse"!
For the first ti casting a spell on himself, Dark was inevitably a little nervous.
But the effect was as expected.
He could feel so of his thoughts drifting outward.
This was actually extrely dangerous.
If he was not careful enough, it would not be emotions that drifted out, but mories!
But fortunately, his [Soulless Curse] was a real degraded version, and the experint was still under his control.
After that, Dark imdiately followed the thod for invoking emotions in the "Magic Brain Dropper User Guide", and only invoked [Wrath].
But after a while, he gradually opened his eyes.
Failed!
[Wrath] stopped when it was still so distance away from the "barrier" and could not be lured out by him no matter what.
But Dark wasn't discouraged by this.
He recalled what happened in detail, recorded the feelings just now, and then pondered carefully.
After ten minutes, he started the second experint!
This ti, he didn't plan to conduct the experint on [Wrath], but on [Pride], the Deadly Sin that he was the most familiar with.
