Wind and frost?
Kudamon was momentarily stunned, surprised that this Angewomon was unexpectedly refined.
But comparing setbacks to wind and frost—not only was it elegant in a literal sense, it also carried a domineering spirit that looked down upon the world.
Is this… really Angewomon?
That thought flashed through Kudamon’s mind once more.
A firm and unwavering holy conviction, coupled with this domineering mindset of treating all obstacles as mere cold winds—what a truly unique Angewomon!
Thinking this, Kudamon grew even more curious about what this Angewomon would evolve into in the future, and perhaps it would be a completely new Mega-level form.
But, back to the point—as a Royal Knight, it couldn’t just become disheartened by one defeat, not in its lifetime!
Kudamon calmed its heart, a slight smile on its lips. “Thank you, Angewomon.”
Sora smiled. “Now that the human world has confirmed Kurata as the enemy, and Kurata is also the enemy of the Digital World, having a common enemy will help the two worlds cooperate. Let both worlds hunt down Kurata together—this kind of cooperation can lay the foundation for future peace.”
Although she also wished that this siege could’ve wiped out Kurata, now that it had failed, there was no need to dwell on it—after all, it wasn’t an issue of combat strength or tactics.
Since it wasn’t a fault of war, instead of regret, they should launch a large-scale manhunt.
Captain Sampson, hearing Sora’s words, thought of World War II and felt that this Angewomon might know more about the human world than most humans themselves.
Saying she didn’t understand during their first meeting was pure nonsense—at most, she just didn’t know the streets.
As he pondered this, Captain Sampson nodded. “Angewomon is right.”
Kudamon had already been feeling much better. Now, seeing that its partner Sampson also agreed with Angewomon and thinking that although they didn’t eliminate Kurata, they had still helped the world take a big step toward peace, its mood became even brighter.
Seeing this, Sora struck while the iron was hot.
“Then, let’s have a banquet!”
“Now? Is that appropriate?” Kudamon froze.
Although it was feeling better, this wasn’t a victory celebration—was it really right to hold a banquet?
Sora smiled. “This is to boost morale.”
Kudamon looked around at the DATS members and suddenly understood. “I see…”
People’s moods can affect many things—especially the Digisoul, which in turn influences DATS’s combat power.
To get things done, boosting morale was a must.
“Let’s have a banquet!”
“Oh—!”
The banquet was held in the DATS cafeteria. Honestly, there wasn’t much fine food, but the point was to enjoy the atmosphere.
Happy times always fly by quickly.
After the banquet ended, those who were tired went to the dorms to sleep, those on duty grabbed a coffee and returned to work, and those with classes rushed out…
Kudamon didn’t stay on Captain Sampson’s shoulder as usual but instead approached Sora, Vademon, and the other Digimon.
“I’m heading back to the Digital World. Do you want to come with me?”
It planned to report the situation with Kurata to the god of the Digital World—Yggdrasill—and ask Yggdrasill to dispatch more Royal Knights to cooperate with the human world in capturing Kurata, using the opportunity to deepen the connection between the two worlds.
So it had to return to the Digital World—and might as well bring along Sora, Vademon, and the other Digimon who had initially wanted to return.
Vademon and the other Digimon all looked toward Sora.
They already saw Sora as their big sis. If big sis was going back, they’d go back.
If not, well, it didn’t matter much.
Though the Digital World was their homeland, DATS headquarters had a huge advantage—free Digimon food.
If they went back to the Digital World, they’d have to find their own food.
Being fed while lying down was also pretty nice.
Sora said, “Let’s go back.”
Back when she rescued Vademon and the others, she had promised to send them back to the Digital World.
Stay true to the original intention, and see things through to the end.
…More importantly, this might increase the evolution chances into Holydramon or Sanzomon.
By imitating the behavior of a target, one could increase the probability of evolving into that target. Let’s call it the Roleplaying Evolution Method.
“Is there anything we need to prepare?” Kudamon asked.
Sora said to Vademon and the others, “Bring some Digimon food with you.”
“Yes!” Vademon and the others answered instantly.
Half an hour later…
Vademon, Mushroomon, Gawappamon, Otamamon, and Kunemon were all carrying backpacks stuffed with Digimon food cans.
Once preparations were complete, they gathered before the transporter in the DATS command room.
“Prepare for departure.” Joining Kudamon was also Captain Sampson.
Megumi said, “Coordinate axis calibrated!”
Miki said, “Initiating transporter cooldown.”
“Bio-capacitor, start!”
“Digital Harmonizer connected.”
“Safety protocol, disengaged.”
“Teleportation, commence!”
Compared to the Space-Time Oscillation Bomb, which severely damaged the space-time barrier, the transporter had very little impact on the time-space wall. The former was like a slash, the latter like a needle prick.
With a flash of light, everything inside the transporter was transferred to the Digital World.
It was Sora’s first time in this frequently mentioned place, and she was momentarily struck by the feeling that she’d returned to the Fairy Tail world.
Compared to the human world, the Digital World had a more colorful and fantastical landscape—much like a fantasy realm, very reminiscent of the Fairy Tail world.
“We’re headed somewhere and can’t stay with you,” Kudamon said goodbye to Sora, Vademon, and the others. It evolved into its Mega form, Sleipmon, and took Captain Sampson to Yggdrasill’s location.
Sora watched Sleipmon disappear into the horizon.
Sleipmon was extremely fast—one of the fastest in the entire Digital World as it vanished from sight in just seconds, so she didn’t watch for long.
She then turned her attention to the evolution rates shown on her panel.
[Holydramon: 6%]
[Sanzomon: 2%]
Completing the achievement of “safely returning Digimon to the Digital World” increased both Holydramon and Sanzomon’s evolution chances by 1%.
The Roleplaying Evolution Method really worked!
Sora was thrilled—but when she saw that 2% next to Sanzomon, she sighed helplessly.
‘Only 2%? At this rate, I’ll have to do 98 more good deeds to tap into Sanzomon’s power… That’s even more than the 81 trials of the west!’
If she was lucky, just a few more percentage points could let her draw Holydramon or Sanzomon’s power directly.
For example, she drew Vamdemon and SkullSatamon when the evolution rate was only 10%.
But in the end, it all depended on luck—and luck was never guaranteed.
When fortune comes, the heavens aid you; when fortune leaves, even heroes are powerless.
Rather than rely on luck, Sora preferred to believe in percentages—she decided to keep doing good deeds.
Angewomon sensed Sora’s frustration. “Actually, doing good deeds also strengthens the holy power in our bodies. And once our holy power grows, we’ll be able to master Heaven’s Charm more easily.”
“I see…” Sora felt even more motivated.
Heaven’s Charm was one of Angewomon’s skills, used in her first appearance in the original series.
It mainly served three functions—
First, healing: restoring allies’ stamina.
Second, power concentration: channeling the power of allies’ special moves into the Holy Arrow.
Third, purification: suppressing dark-type Digimon.
Previously, Sora couldn’t use it because Angewomon couldn’t.
To be precise, the Angewomon she was possessing couldn’t use it.
Not all Angewomon were the same. Without her possession, this Angewomon was probably just a background Digimon with a single shot in Episode 36 of Season 5.
Because of her possession, this Angewomon now had infinite possibilities.
Speaking of which, the power concentration aspect of Heaven’s Charm… it was just like a Spirit Bomb!
Sora’s thoughts started to run wild. If she played her cards right, maybe she could use Heaven’s Charm to defeat enemies above her level.
‘Spirit Bomb… no, Heaven’s Charm is a must-learn!’
To do that, she needed to strengthen her holy power.
Which meant she had to do more good deeds.
What kind of good deed?
Sora’s thoughts raced, and she said to Vademon, Mushroomon, and the others, “I’ll help you build your homes. Let’s go find a nice mountain and river view first.”
The next day…
Sleipmon returned and found her.
Moreover, it brought back news: “Angewomon, Yggdrasill has appointed you as the Digital World’s ambassador to the human world.”
Sora froze.
‘Yggdrasill, you’re serious about this?!’
