”My origin card is my only choice to make a comeback and take revenge on those who wronged me. Even if the platinum grade card creationist disagrees with his grandsonʼs wishes, I can not go through with it.” Kaneʼs answer surprised me. I did not think this timid guyʼs thought process would take into consideration what my reaction would be when he narrated the reason why he believed his bully. There seems to be much more going in his head than I thought.

”Why not tell your grandfather and mother?” Corey asked but feeling my glare, she added, ”Sorry boss, I was too engrossed in the kidʼs story.”

”I cannot because it will do more harm than good. Though I have no proof of what my bully said, my mother will believe me. She will go as far as to get justice for me, no matter the cost.

My bullyʼs family is very prominent. For them, wiping out my mother and grandfather out of existence is as easy as smashing a bug. You know my grandfatherʼs corrupt behavior. They will have no difficulty dealing with him.

Thatʼs the worst-case scenario. Best case, my mother will hold a grudge and withdraw the appointment she made with the platinum grade grimoire card creationist. Knowing him, he would not let my mother do that and ask why. Then that can lead to various variables such as questioning the integrity of the platinum grade card creationist, etc. No matter how you see it, my family would be the one that ends up hanging by the end of the stick.

The only way out of this predicament is if I take the blame for all this. Knowing my mother and grandfather, they would rather die than let me do that. Therefore, I have kept them in the dark about all this.” It seems Kane had weighed in all his options before coming to his current decision.

”Whoa! Thatʼs brave of you, but why shoulder this alone if you tell your entire plan to your family members? I bet they will help you. And how do you plan to take the blame and walk out of this?” Corey once again butted in and, turning to meet my glare, she promised, ”Boss, this is the last time I promise.”

”The only way out of my predicament is if I donʼt have a fate ingredient. Thatʼs where Master Wyatt comes in. If he helps me create the origin card, I will no longer have the use for my appointment with the platinum grade card creationist.

This way, my mother and grandfather are clean while I do not have to worry about the bully ruining my one shot at vengeance. Granted, my mother and grandfather will yell at me for being brazen and creating my origin card without consulting them, but this is better than the alternative.” Behind his timid appearance, Kane hid a patient and cunning avenger. His wits and patience made up for his lacking strength.

”Good, it seems you have prepared everything in advance. That includes my service fees. I take it?” I asked.

”Yes, through my research on you. I have been informed that. When it comes to your service fee, it would be in my best interest not to hold back and go all in. Here are the things I have prepared as compensation for your expertise.” Saying that, Kane shared a few documents with my grimoire.

”Waoh! Thatʼs a lot. Are you sure you want to give this to me? If your grandfather knows this, he may die of shock.” The documents that Kane shared with my grimoire were the deeds to various dungeons. 3 A-rank dungeons, 8 B-rank dungeons, 22 C-rank dungeons, 17 D-rank dungeons located all across the blossom district and managed by multiple local adventure guilds. If converted to soul jades, the valuation of these dungeons will easily cross a million soul jades.

”Thatʼs all the property my grandfather has purchased in my name through his ill-gotten gains. Master Wyatt, please give me the strength I need for my vengeance.” Kane yelled, getting down on one knee and bowing his head to me.

”You need strength? You have come to the right place. Get up. We have lots of things to do. But letʼs begin with the introduction of your fate ingredient.” My hands were itching, with the amount of assets Kane had provided as funds sky was the limit. I was looking forward to his fate ingredient, in what ways it will prove challenging to me or will it just be plain and rigid with a tiny place for improvement.

”Aaa… My fate ingredient is an ironwood seed.” Kane dragged his words before introducing his fate ingredient. It appears he is shy, no, ashamed about it.

”Kane, are you ashamed of your fate ingredient?” I questioned Kane looking into his eyes.

”No, I am not….” Kane said one thing, but his body language told another.

”Clearly, you are ashamed of your fate ingredient.” Corey butted in.

”Why is that Kane?” I asked, giving him a chance to understand if he was really ashamed of his fate ingredient.

”No, I am not. It is just that my classmates make fun of me because of it, saying I am a waste wood and my fate ingredient is waste wood.” Ironwood is commonly known as waste wood in this world. Because it has zero use in this world, it can not even be used as fodder for the fire or for woodwork. Due to the high iron content in the wood, it is not a good fuel for the fire or woodwork compared to alternatives available. Hence it was labeled as waste wood.

”Good, remember that. You got to have your opinion. Donʼt let others force their opinion on you. Especially your bullies.” Kane was not ashamed of his fate ingredient he only felt ashamed because his friends made fun of him because of it.
