Chapter 131 Conjecture of the Cat Goddess
***Edited by Kronost***
Although the phenomenon that occurred in front of him was unexpected, Dark didn't stay stunned for too long.
After he regained his senses, he immediately drew the outline of the glowing humanoid that Gatomon had evolved into from his memory.
It was not an eight-winged archangel like Angewomon, nor was it a distinctive silhouette like Lady Devimon.
It was a slender humanoid with two cat ears and two cat tails!
Dark's understanding of "Digimon" was actually relatively limited. He frowned for a long time and couldn't identify the body from the outline.
"Not Angewomon, not Lady Devimon? What else can Gatomon evolve into? Nefertimon? That's not right... ah ah ah~! My head hurts!"
Just when he was troubled by this, Gatomon's eyes were filled with a [Lust] aura that was so strong that it couldn't be dissolved.
It covered its head and curled up into a ball.
Pride was fighting with Lust.
Light and dark were battling each other.
The chaos gradually intensified.
When Dark noticed, one of its eyes had turned black and the other white.
Pride had also mutated.
"This phenomenon?"
Dark hurriedly picked up Gatomon and took a closer look.
At this time, although Gatomon snorted slightly, it did not show any sign of resistance.
The boy and the cat became very close.
It wasn't till a cold tongue licked across his cheek that Dark finally confirmed Gatomon's state.
He grabbed Gatomon's tail and stroked it lightly, thinking:
"Although there is a Fruit of Pride in the refining materials, the Holy Ring on the Gatomon's tail indicates that it leans toward the Light attribute."
"And [Lust III] can make DemiDevimon evolve into Black Gatomon, so it can be seen that it leans to the dark side."
"One black and one white, the fusion of light and darkness, the integration of angels and demons– Mastemon?"
"That's not right. Mastemon is a Mega Level digimon! It's the fusion of Angewomon and LadyDevimon, not Gatomon and..."
"Unless Gatomon and Black Gatomon can also fusion-evolve together?"
Dark's eyes lit up, feeling as though he had finally caught the crux of the matter.
Although this evolution failed, it foreshadowed a possibility.
Just like how Angewomon and Lady Devimon could evolve into a mega-level digimon, Gatomon and Black Gatomon should also be able to evolve into an ultimate-level Digimon!
But then the new question is, how to make Gatomon and Black Gatomon fusion-evolve together?
[Fusion]?
"In this world, is there this card?"
As Dark was thinking, he picked up the cat very naturally and petted it.
Although Gatomon was tightly clenching its lips, its expression clearly showed enjoyment.
Dark suddenly felt his trouser legs move, so he lowered his head and picked up the cat grass.
Petting the two cats at the same time!
...
Gatomon's "Tsundere" state lasted for about sixteen minutes before it woke up with a "meow".
But although its eyes returned to normal, it still lay on Dark's lap and didn't move.

Evening.
The students came to the cafeteria earlier than usual; doubling their homework was clearly not enough to dampen their enthusiasm for adventure.
Dark sat down to eat by the window. He could hear the students in front and back discussing tonight's secret passage adventure.
Although seniors have been allowed to venture into the dungeons on weekends, the secret passages and dungeons in the castle have different meanings.
From some of the information Dark had heard occasionally, it seemed that not only he and Emma had gained something. Some students also found paintings lost in the past, the last copies of ancient books, and special magic items...
Although those things disappeared after a while, they became treasures that evoked students’ desires.
Even if it was useless, it could become a topic of discussion for people to show off for a while.
Not to mention that some of the antiquities were truly extraordinary.
...
Dark, who came to the library again, had a clear purpose.
He needed a [Curse Cage] and also a [Fusion].
[Curse Cage] definitely existed, and [Fusion] needed to be verified.
But before that, as a student, he had to complete his homework first.
In today's three classes, except for the first arithmetic class, the Theory of Magic only assigned tasks, while the History of Magic did not assign homework.
But the amount of homework the arithmetic class had was enough to cover the other two subjects.
Moreover, the after-class tasks of the Theory of Magic seemed to be simple, but in fact, it would take a lot of time.
On the premise that Dark had finished the exercise sheets in advance, it still took him a quarter of an hour to finish the rest of the homework. It was hard to imagine how long it would take for other first-year students to do it.
Not to mention the kids who were getting double the amount of homework because they were late.
"Full of malice!"
After Dark complained a little, he put away his homework and prepared to leave the reading room and swim in the sea of bookshelves.
But Emma was clearly watching him, and when he was done with his homework, she rushed over.
Dark finally remembered it after being reminded by her, and lent her the notes he copied from the mural.
...
Emma, who got the notebook, showed a look of joy, bowed slightly and thanked: "Thank you. I will share with you when the research results come out."
Dark: "Eh."
Emma returned to the desk, biting the pen holder and struggling with the material book she found beforehand.
She seemed to know a little more about murals than Dark, and she already had a goal.
Dark glanced slightly and found that the material books were historical accounts of a certain era.
Saint Marian's library housed almost all the books from all over the world.
Students could always find the book they were looking for.
Dark didn't consider there was a problem before, but now that he learned about the location of the castle and part of its meaning, he was impressed by the incredibly detailed thoughts involved regarding the foundation of the library.
...
Three hours later.
Dark walked out of the sea of bookshelves with two books in his hands.
One was "Three Thousand Magical Uses of Curse Cage".
The other was "On the Extraordinary Characteristics of Fusion Series Card Groups".
Sure enough, there’s Fusion in this world.
A duel without fusion is not a duel at all.
It was a dark night.
The reading room was almost empty.
In one corner, there was only a girl with shaggy hair and a boy with neat blond hair.
The surroundings were quiet except for the rustling of the pen tip touching the surface of the paper.
...
Noble House, common room.
Dianna was playing magic chess with Rose.
Despite her repeated defeats, she continued.
The two did their homework for two hours in the library, but the "homework helper" was lost in the sea of bookshelves, and in the end, they didn't even bump into each other.
Dianna was not very interested and asked casually: "Rose, which of the five Generic Spells are you going to do first?"
Rose frowned and thought: "I want to do Fade Spell, but that seems very difficult. Maybe start with something simple, like Push Push Curse?"
Dianna: "Sigh, you are probably right. I wanted to do Blinking Spell, but I couldn't do it."
Rose nodded and said, "Blinking Spell is also good. It can flash forward one to three metres, and it has high tactical value."
Dianna: "Maybe Magic Bullet Spell."
