Card Apprentice Daily Log

Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild Association Mall, Warehouse no. 234.

”Sun Blossom City?” Diana asked in puzzlement. She did not understand how keeping track of local news updates in Sun Blossom city would help her. But then, since I had explicitly advised her to, Diana decided to keep an eye out for it.

”Yes. If you have nothing else worth my time, leave my property.” I have said everything I had to. Now the decision was up to Diana. Whatever she decides, she knows how to contact me.

”Are the Ogre Blood Totem Cards not for sale? I can give you a good deal for it.” Diana once again expressed her interest in buying the ogre blood totem cards. Unfortunately, my answer for her remained the same.

”No, they are not for sale. Speaking of cards, I am mass producing C-rank NanoMorpher cards. If you are interested in buying them in bulk, contact Susan.” Though I was not planning on selling the Ogre Blood Cards, I had another card in mind that I planned to sell, the NanoMorpher cards made using C-rank liquid spirit gold.

”NanoMorpher? Are you talking about the Golem used in the tournament? That card which could switch between a hoverbike and a golem, right?” It seems my advertisement of NanaMorpher in the school tournament was not a dud as Diana appears to remember the NanoMorpher from the ad.

”Right, that one. Are you interested?” Confirming Dianaʼs doubts, I asked her if she was willing to make a mass purchase of those cards.

”Are there any A-rank NanoMorpher Cards?” Diana tried her luck. After all, it wouldnʼt hurt to ask.

”There arenʼt any. All I have are C-rank NanoMorpher cards. Are you interested or not?” I repeated myself.

”Just C-rank, the profit margin on these cards is not high. But considering how your cards are a unique of their kind and market for C-rank cards in this city is quite decent. I think they will have a good market. Since I am buying in bulk, are there any discounts?” Diana knew that the profit margin on C-rank cards was not as high as A-rank cards. Therefore, she hesitated before making a decision.

”Thatʼs Susanʼs department. Contact her tomorrow. The cards should be ready then.” Stating that I wait for Diana to show herself out of the Warehouse.

”So, how much discount should I give her?” After Diana walked out of the door, Susan finally made her presence known.

”None. You know what stiffen the prices by 20%. Those shameless psycho sisters are wealthy. They can afford the cards.” I was really pissed hearing Diana shamelessly ask for a discount.

”Good, no discount it is.” Susan was not comfortable with unfair trade practices, therefore she did not approve of my idea to stiffen the prices by 20% and stuck to no discount. I decide the price tag of the cards I create so no one will know.

”Ok, prepare the card lab. I want to start creating the NanoMorphers cards right away.” Now that I had a buyer in place for the NanoMorpher cards, I decided to finish creating them today. They wouldnʼt require a lot of time as the liquid spirit gold body and framework of the NanaoMorphers was already created by Corey.

”Ah, about that….” Susanʼs words trailed off, not knowing how to explain that the Card Lab was still occupied.

”Whatʼs wrong?” I asked, seeing Susanʼs expression.

” The Card Lab is not free. Corey is still using it.” Susan finally said.

”Donʼt tell me she still ainʼt done creating the body and framework using liquid spirit gold for the NanoMopher cards.” It was almost evening, meaning Corey had an extra 8hrs, yet she could not complete her task. I was disappointed in her. I was planning on making her my assistant and letting her carry some of the heavy workloads. It seems I have to reconsider.

”Yes. I guess she is not as capable as she boasted.” Susan, too, did not seem satisfied with Coreyʼs performance.

”I will head into the Card Lab and take over.” I could not wait around for Corey to complete the task given to her, as I did not know how long it would take Corey to get the job done. Since Diana will be here to buy the cards tomorrow, I did not have the time to wait around.

”Okay, I will arrange the remaining ingredients required in the creation of the NanoMorpher cards.” Susan headed to the warehouse shelves, and I headed to Card Lab.

…

*Knock**Knock**Knock*

After knocking, I entered the Card Lab. I knew it was not ethical or safe to enter a Card Lab when someone was in the middle of card creation, but I did not have the luxury to think about all of this right now. And the worst that could happen is the card creation would fail, meaning all I would lose is a tiny amount of liquid spirit gold.

”...” Entering the Card Lab, I saw Corey comfortably sleeping on the futon while a humanoid-shaped fire extended out of her body and was utilizing her gold grimoire to refine Liquid Spirit Gold to create NanoMorpher body and Framework. Yes, while Corey slept comfortably, her Ego Fire was helping her in the card creation process.

”Hi, Wyatt. What are you doing here?” Corey Park turned to see me enter the Card lab.

”That is what I should be asking you. What the heck is going on here.” I was astonished to see what was happening in the card lab, especially the part where Corey slept like a log in the futon. What the fock?

”Corey was tired, so I stepped in. Donʼt worry. I am almost done. This is the last of the liquid spirit gold.” Corey Park explained that Corey was mentally exhausted from refining the liquid spirit gold all night and morning. Therefore, Corey Park decided to step in and do the remaining work as Corey Bright got some sleep.

”... Okay, I will be outside. Once you are done, you know where to find me.” Since Corey Park said she was refining the last batch of Liquid Spirit Gold and would be done any minute now, I had no work here, so I decided to wait outside.

”Okay,” saying that Corey Park returned to refining while I walked out of the Card lab.

...

”Wyatt, all done, here are the cards.” Handing me a stack of cards, Corey walked past me and slumped down on the couch, saying, ”I am exhausted and feeling so sleepy. Do not disturb me.”

I took the stack of cards and checked them to see if they all had satisfactory rank and durability. All 30 cards were up to the standards. Therefore I left Corey alone and headed to the Card Lab, and soon Susan brought the old soul engines, soul reactors, floater components, and artificial will to create Nanomorpher.

With all the ingredients available, I did not delay any longer and began the creation of the Nanomorpger cards. I placed all the body and framework cards into the grimoire along with the soul reactor, soul engines, and floater components. In order to turn the liquid spirit gold body and framework into the card, Corey had already used origin cores, so I did not require origin cores. I could just use the origin cores of these cards.

Morphing the cards into core form, I transfer the soul pathways of the soul engine and soul reactor into each of them along with the floater components. And began to precisely assemble the soul engine, soul reactor, floater components into the body and framework made using the liquid spirit gold.

After assembling the NanoMorpher in each core, I took the remaining one-ton spirit gold that I had kept aside to create weapons for the NanoMorpher. For the weapon system of the NanoMorpher, I chose to make an energy gun and energy blade out of the remaining liquid spirit gold for each of them. Then I transfer the soul pathways of the energy gun and energy blade into each of the cores and add them under the NanoMorpher Armor. I designed the energy gun and energy blade compactly so that they could hide under the NanoMorpher armor and act as concealed weapons.

Now that the 30 NanoMorpher were assembled with soul engine, soul reactors, energy weapons, and floater components, I added the artificial will to each of the assembled NanoMorpher and morphed the cores back into cards.

[Card Name: LSG NanoMorpher

Card Type: Item Card

Card Rank: C-rank, Uncommon Grade

Card Rate: 9-Stars

Card Durability: [92/100]

Card Effect: Liquid Spirt Gold NanoMorpher is a sentient hoverbike with the unique ability to morph into a sentient golem.

Additional Effect: Transformation, Concealed Energy Blaster, Concealed Energy Blade.]

Reading the card info of the NanoMorpher, I was satisfied even though it was a lot weaker than the one I made for myself. I didnʼt make these 30 NanoMorpher cards as grand as mine, these NanoMorpher could only morph into one form and not strengthen themselves by consuming other metals.. But they meet all the conditions to be sold in the market as capable hoverbike/Golem cards.
