When Dark returned to the dormitory, it was already six o'clock in the evening.
The Magic Guide Spirits, having finished their homework, were indulging in their respective entertainments.
Only the cute Catnip waited at the door to welcome him, day after day.
He bent down and picked up the Catnip along with its small flower pot, using his accustomed technique to rub the soft flesh under its neck.
Gatomon, who was also a cat, was sitting on the top level of the cat climbing frame, using a toddler's reader to conceal the twitching of the corner of its eye.
"Gatomon, come here for a moment."
Dark suddenly beckoned to it. It couldn't help but reveal a look of joy, but in the next instant, it pursed its lips tightly.
Then it put down the reader and said reservedly, "What is the matter?"
Dark grinned. "There's a small experiment."
"Pa!"
DemiDevimon, who was practicing balancing on one foot on the desk, accidentally knocked its pen down.
It instantly stiffened all over, turned toward the balcony like a rusted machine, and then spread its wings...
"DemiDevimon, you come here too."
"Oh."
...
An experiment!
The Magic Guide Spirits generally knew what Dark's experiments entailed, so their spirits immediately rose. They put down the entertainment in their hands one after another and hopped over to surround him.
Dark put away his schoolbag, went to the bedside to sit down, and placed the Catnip on his knees.
Gatomon glanced at the Catnip, then stood straight about half a meter away from him.
It did not reject experiments like DemiDevimon did; on the contrary, it was slightly expectant.
Because the Master's experiments were always able to grant the Magic Guide Spirits enhancements in intelligence and power. As for the temporary changes in personality—one always had to pay a price to gain something.
Gatomon's thinking was still relatively mature.
Moreover, when it tried [Lust III · Moon] a long time ago, it had felt a brand-new power exploding within its body. If that power could take form, it wouldn't have been suppressed by a mere gorilla in the duel the day before yesterday.
It crossed its arms, raised its chin slightly, and waited for the Master's command.
"Whoosh."
DemiDevimon retracted its wings and landed on the ground, covering its eyes with the tips of its wings while secretly peeking at Dark, speculating on what kind of experiment it would be tonight.
Dark looked at the completely different reactions of the two Magic Guide Spirits and couldn't help but narrow his eyes in a smile.
Then, from his card pouch, he took out a [Lust III] and a [Fusion] respectively.
[Lust III], like [Lust III · Moon], could enable DemiDevimon to evolve into Black Gatomon, but [Lust III] was controllable.
When Gatomon saw that [Lust III], its heart stirred, realizing that its era was likely about to arrive!
But that [Fusion] card, which it had never seen before, made it feel wary.
"Let's start with DemiDevimon first!"
Dark looked at DemiDevimon, the corners of his mouth curving up.
DemiDevimon's expression tightened. It took a step back and suddenly said, "Three flowers!"
Dark was stunned for a moment, then immediately said, "One flower."
DemiDevimon: "Two flowers!"
Dark: "One flower."
DemiDevimon: "Fine, one flower is one flower."
Then it closed its eyes, lay down on the carpet, and completely gave up struggling.
Dark hurriedly held back the corners of his mouth and activated [Lust III].
"Magic Guide Summon!"
The instant the summoning was successful, pink radiance suddenly released from the card face of [Lust III].
Gatomon subconsciously raised its hand to cover its eyes, as did the surrounding Magic Guide Spirits, but the pink color still shone upon them, causing their emotions to fluctuate slightly and their faces to flush red.
And as the center of the pink illumination, the Crest of [Lust] lit up on DemiDevimon's forehead.
It twisted slightly twice, and its body turned into light under the effect of [Lust III], its entire form beginning to transform toward the shape of a cat.
"Meow~?(??w`?)"
A black cat, appearing as if stamped from the same mold as Gatomon, appeared before Dark after a long absence.
Gatomon took just one look and revealed a look of disgust.
It even moved a step to the side without concealment, as if staying away from some kind of foul-smelling object.
Immediately after.
DemiDevimon, having evolved into Black Gatomon, climbed up from the carpet methodically.
It first touched its own body, then waved its hand in front of its eyes, muttering a sentence: "I have hands, eh."
Then, catching everyone off guard, this black kitty let out a "Meow" and jumped up!
Dark only saw a black shadow flash before his eyes, and then he was being ridden!
"Meow!"
The Catnip lying on his knees was scared into bolting upright.
Gatomon looked at that shameless black cat and harrumphed coldly.
All the Magic Guide Spirits looked restless.
Dark lay back on the bed and sighed; a cat's tongue is truly cold.
Then he reached out, grabbed Black Gatomon by the armpits, and pulled it off his face.
"Meow~"
Black Gatomon licked its lips, extending two meat pads to paw at Dark's wrist, soft and squishy.
"Alright, behave."
Dark patted its head and placed it by the bedside, standing in a row with Gatomon.
One black and one white, although the two cats looked the same, their expressions were widely different, and their temperaments were completely distinct.
Gatomon was holy and inviolable.
Black Gatomon was evil and coquettish.
Light and Darkness.
Pride and Lust.
Could these two really fuse?
...
"Thinking so much is useless, let's just experiment!"
Dark placed the [Fusion] card in his palm and abruptly injected mana!
In that instant, [Fusion] was triggered. The black and white twin fish on the card face went from static to active, slowly beginning to swim.
The usage of the [Fusion] Magic Guide Card differed from normal Magic Guide Cards; apart from the necessary summoning spell, it also required the assistance of a massive amount of mana.
How to inject a sufficiently huge and stable amount of mana within a short time was actually a very profound technique.
Of course, he wasn't in that much of a rush right now; simply pouring the mana in slowly would suffice.
When the mana had been poured in to a certain degree, the black and white twin fish flicked their tails lightly, suddenly swimming out of the card face and growing with the wind.
The white fish flew toward Gatomon.
The black fish flew toward Black Gatomon.
They circled the two Magic Guide Spirits once respectively.
Naturally, the two Magic Guide Spirits turned into light along with the black and white twin fish. Riding the fish, they converged at one point in the air, fusing into one like a Tai Chi symbol, forming a massive, mysterious magic array.
Subsequently, a brand-new Magic Guide Spirit sat up slowly within that magic array.
Just as it had been recorded before.
It was a slender humanoid figure with fluffy cat ears and two long, thin tails.
It wasn't until its physical features became clearly visible that Dark suddenly realized that rather than a cat, its physical characteristics were more like a leopard.
Or perhaps, a Leopard Cat humanoid!
The pink long hair inherited from [Lust] gave it more feminine softness. A pale purple veil half-concealed it, and its scant attire left its furless abdomen largely exposed. Its soft, exquisite skin shimmered with a faint luster.
The round breast shape wrapped in tadpole-shaped pink bra cups, the soft fullness that a single hand could not grasp, and the X-shaped tattoo branded on its abdomen made it full of wild nature.
The pearls, gemstones, and gold rings distributed all over its body endowed it with a facet symbolizing wealth.
This was the Beast-man type Digimon known as the Cat Goddess, the incarnation of bewitchment and charm!
While reading the information from the Magic Guide Card, Dark carefully observed this fused Digimon.
Already possessing a human form, it still retained a large number of leopard cat characteristics. Its slender waist and flashy attire made it look just like a frivolous dancer.
And in reality, it indeed possessed a frivolous personality, skilled at using the gems on its body and its bewitching, glowing pupils to confuse enemies, subsequently manipulating opponents as it pleased.
Its body was as flexible as if boneless; one could see at a glance that it possessed agility as outstanding as a cat's.
Its hands and feet, retaining bestial characteristics, were extremely full of power, the claws on its hands sharp enough to cut gold and penetrate iron.

[Card Name: Bastemon]
[Type: Spirit Card]
[Level: ???????]
[Race: Demi-human Species]
[Attribute: Dark]
[Mana: 3500]
[Attack: 3400]
[Defense: 2700]
[Finishing Move: Confusion, Vampire Dance]

...
This Digimon, modeled after the cat-headed goddess in Egyptian mythology, fused the dual natures of light and darkness. It was impressively a Digimon belonging to the Ultimate body!
Its finishing moves were [Confusion], which uses a bewitching belly dance to confuse and manipulate enemies.
And [Vampire Dance], where it approaches the opponent while dancing to suck every last drop of blood from their body!
Possessing both a large-range control skill and a gorgeous large-range attack skill—a seven-star Magic Guide Spirit with Mana and Attack exceeding three thousand!
...
"A Gold Card with only two finishing moves?"
Watching the golden halo rising on the [Fusion] Magic Guide Card that temporarily carried Bastemon, Dark's thoughts shifted slightly.
Having experienced the Gold Card [Magic Beast: Ditto] which had only two skills, Dark no longer felt overly surprised by this.
The existing Magic Guide Card grading could only be said to be a popularized standard; there were always special Magic Guide Spirits that transcended the standards.
Judging solely from the information, this [Bastemon] was worthy of being a Gold Card.
Skills that exerted mind control on humans were originally extremely precious, let alone a range-based control skill.
As long as it successfully danced on the field, any Magic Guide Spirit whose will was not firm enough would become a captive of its infinite charm.
He couldn't be more satisfied!
...
Dark looked at the slowly rising Bastemon with a face full of joy.
The [Lust +1] drifting past his eyes made him realize that the Hanafuda cards capable of absorbing [Lust] had not yet left the environment.
"Hello, my dear Master."
Bastemon, fusing the wills of DemiDevimon and Gatomon, opened its eyes the instant its consciousness awakened. Water-like desire overflowed from its soft, charming eyes.
It retracted the terribly long claws on its hands, turning them into round, oversized meat pads, and then extended a greedy hand toward its Master.
Dark reached out to respond in kind.
Bastemon unconsciously placed its palm into his palm.
The body heat transmitted from the touching palms made Bastemon unable to control itself; it stuck out its tongue and lightly licked the corner of its lips.
It felt thirst.
