Digimon: I reached the top using the Knight item.

In terms of effectiveness, the basic combat power exerted by transforming using a piloting card and transforming using a watch face should be almost the same.

However, since only one driving card can be used at a time, it may not be as convenient as a watch face.

However, the advantage of piloting cards is that after transformation, other piloting cards can be used in battle to summon or launch various special attacks.

It is more flexible than a single dial.

As for the form of 'ancestors'...

Perhaps the focus of all knight items should be on the 'recipe'.

As for other knight props that have not yet been made.

Memory, like a full bottle, is a combination of two forces.

However, its characteristics should lean more towards 'balance'.

It's not a chemical reaction-like mixture of 'best match', but rather a harmonious unity achieved through the mutual balance and complementarity of two forces.

As for Den-O's belt...

Bai Yu's expression turned strange.

Is this thing really going to let a Digimon possess you and then fight for you?

Let a Digimon control your body to fight?

Just thinking about this scene makes me feel very uncomfortable.

There is also the Soul Eye.

Are you looking for a ghost?

Are there ghosts in the digital world?

Have!

Immediately, a figure wearing a pointed hat and a cloak appeared in Bai Yu's mind.

Wizardmon!

Wizardmon's consciousness, or rather, its soul composed of data, should still be wandering in Odaiba.

Bai Yu really thought about it a lot, until...

"Gurgle—"

An untimely cry came from inside her belly.

Bai Yu then waved his arm, collecting all the various knight props on the bed back into the system space, before going out to have dinner.

-------------------------------------

Two days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Bai Yu hasn't gone out much these past two days, spending most of his time at home watching TV or lying in bed studying the new knight gear he's acquired.

Outside, all was calm; no new Digimon materialization events had occurred.

But the news on television was anything but calm, with almost every channel reporting on the street riots and the hospital being covered in cobwebs from the previous two days.

This matter has become so outrageous that it's impossible to control.

Especially in the hospital, anyone who isn't blind can see those spider webs.

With this boiling "heat," Bai Yu knew without even thinking that Yamaki Mitsuo must be both busy and having a headache.

In the middle, Yamaki Mitsuo sent a message to Shiraha. The message was very simple; he just asked for Shiraha's bank card number and then transferred the hospital's reward for this incident.

Bai Yu sat on the sofa, stretched, glanced at the time, looked at the bright sunshine outside the window, thought for a moment, and decided to stop staying at home.

I got up, changed my clothes, put on my shoes, and went out.

Bai Yu planned to go find the little crybaby.

Come to think of it, it's been several days since I last visited him. He must miss me terribly, right?

They arrived at the elementary school where Qi Ren studied with ease.

The timing was perfect; the school bell was ringing cheerfully as the school let out.

Before long, students began to emerge from the school gate in twos and threes.

Qi Ren and Jian Liang were walking side by side, chatting and laughing, and they seemed to be in a good mood.

Bai Yu approached silently.

As Qi Ren was walking, he suddenly felt his backpack being grabbed from behind.

He stumbled, quickly regained his balance, and immediately turned his head away.

When he realized that the person who grabbed his backpack was Bai Yu, his face, which had been on the verge of anger from shock, immediately turned into a smile.

Bai Yu released his grip, a warm smile on his face, and said to Qi Ren, "Qi Ren, it's been a few days, have you missed me?"

Qi Ren's head nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice.

Yes, yes!

"Kenryo and I were just about to go find you, or perhaps Ruki!"

Keito and Kenryo already know that Shiraha found and rescued Ryuhime.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu's expression revealed a hint of surprise.

Looking for me?

What do you want from me?

This little crybaby actually wants to come find me on her own initiative?

What? You have so much pocket money you don't know what to do with it, and you don't want to use it to buy snacks, so you insist on giving it to me?

Bai Yu wasn't interested in thinking about what Qi Ren wanted to see him for the time being; Qi Ren had his own things to do, and so did Bai Yu.

Bai Yu reached out his hand to Qi Ren with practiced ease and natural movements.

"Hurry up, I haven't asked you for it for several days."

The bright smile on Qi Ren's face instantly vanished when he saw Bai Yu's outstretched hand, like an eggplant that had been hit by frost.

He thought... he thought that Brother Bai Yu had forgotten about this matter because he hadn't come for the past few days, or that he had taken pity on him and let him off the hook.

Oh, that's not it after all.

The beautiful bubble of fantasy was ruthlessly burst by reality.

Qi Ren's entire face was wrinkled up, full of heartache and reluctance.

He slowly reached into his pocket, rummaged around for a while, and finally pulled out a few coins and a wrinkled banknote, which he then placed slowly in Bai Yu's palm.

"Brother Baiyu, I... I only have this much pocket money left today. I spent some of it on snacks this afternoon."

Bai Yu glanced at the pitiful amount of money in his palm, then casually stuffed it into his pocket, the movement fluid and without the slightest embarrassment.

He even added in a lecturing tone, saying to Qi Ren, "You glutton, all you do is eat snacks."

Jianliang, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but speak up after seeing this scene. "Baiyu, you should stop bullying Qiren. He doesn't have much money to begin with."

Kenryo's impression of Shiraha has improved considerably, especially after learning that Shiraha successfully rescued Ruki.

If it were in the past, Jianliang's tone would definitely not have been as calm as it is now when he saw Bai Yu "extorting" his good friend like this.

Bai Yu turned to Jian Liang and said with a smile, "Qi Ren lost to me, how can you say I bullied him?"

"Besides, if Qiren doesn't want to give it, he can always fight me again."

At this point, Bai Yu's gaze returned to Qi Ren, a faint smile playing on her lips.

“If Qiren wins, I will not only return all the money he gave me before, but I will also give him an extra share.”

"But... what if he loses again..."

Bai Yu didn't finish his sentence, but the implication in it sent a chill down Qi Ren's spine.

This little crybaby is still a crybaby; she's timid and has a soft personality.

But after a while, when he is able to ride Guilmon to evolve into Gallantmon, he will definitely be a "big brother" figure.

That means we can still "bully" him now.

Qi Ren hurriedly waved his hands at Bai Yu, shaking his head like a rattle-drum: "No, no! I'm no match for you, Brother Bai Yu!"

Are you kidding me! Fight me again?

Qi Ren was terrified of Bai Yu's strength and dared not fight him again.

He didn't want his hard times to double for another month, otherwise he would really have to eat bread from his own bakery every day.

Immediately afterwards, Qi Ren turned to Jian Liang and said, "Jian Liang, it's okay. I'm a man of my word. I promised Brother Bai Yu that I would do it. You don't need to worry about this."

Jianliang was speechless when he saw Qiren's expression.

It's as if no one is willing to accept the consequences of their bet.

Didn't I obediently give the share I lost back then to Bai Yu that very night? I'm only asking now because I see Qi Ren looking so pitiful.

Day after day, I can't even spend my allowance.

However, since Qi Ren, the person involved, had said so, Jian Liang decided not to say anything more.

He couldn't very well force Qi Ren to fight Bai Yu again.

Then Jianliang changed the subject and started talking about something else.

"Bai Yu, we've been watching the news."

"What happened a couple of days ago, especially at the hospital, you and Ruki should have been there at the time, right? What exactly happened?"

Qi Ren, standing to the side, nodded quickly, his face showing obvious thirst for knowledge.

"Yes, yes, yes! Brother Baiyu, Jianliang and I came to find you or Liuji because we wanted to ask you about this."

Oh, so that's what happened.

Bai Yu suddenly realized.

Since they wanted to know, Bai Yu had nothing to hide, so he briefly told them what had happened that day.

When Qi Ren and Jian Liang heard Bai Yu's story, they were both shocked.

Qi Ren stammered, "Eight...eight Digimon? How...how could so many materialize at once?"

Jianliang added, "This has never happened before; there shouldn't be so many."

Seeing their shocked expressions, Bai Yu shrugged and said in a cautionary tone, "Situations always change, and you have to change accordingly."

"If you ever encounter the 'Digital Realm' again, or even run into a wild Digimon, you must be extra vigilant and careful."

"Otherwise, you might get ganged up on and beaten by a group of Digimon at any time."

Bai Yu's words made both Qi Ren and Jian Liang's hearts jump.

The thought of being surrounded by a group of Digimon made Qi Ren's legs go weak. He nodded repeatedly, making sure he remembered every word Bai Yu said.

Jianliang nodded solemnly as well.

In fact, the frequency of their battles was much less than that of Ruki.

Kenjiro's personality is not keen on fighting; he prefers peaceful coexistence. Unless he encounters a situation where fighting is unavoidable, he generally will not actively seek trouble with wild Digimon.

In this respect, his ideas were exactly the opposite of Ruki's.

As for Qi Ren...

He hadn't been a beast tamer for very long, and coupled with his crybaby personality, he was quite timid.

He avoids fighting whenever possible.

It wasn't the Crimson Knightmon that would later stand majestically on the rooftop with his arms crossed.

Seeing that they had both taken his words to heart, Bai Yu waved his hand and said, "Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, someone grabbed the hem of his clothes.

It is Qi Ren.

Bai Yu turned around and looked at him with some confusion.
