“You are a Card Creationist and also opened a card studio, Woah. Are you for real?” Tammy was utterly shocked knowing Corey was a card creationist and had created a Sword card better than the one she bought at association guild mall. No matter how rich Corey is, one only achieves such success in card creation with hard work and dedication. This new information put Corey in a new light on her bias.
“Yes, but I founded the card studio just yesterday. So you will be my first customer. Tell you what, help me promote my business and I will let you keep the card. Before you say no, just check out the card info once.” Corey once again tried to hand the extra E-rank tainted one card to Tammy
Hearing Corey, the referee was in a difficult position as fraternization between contestants in the arena was against the rule but the Contestant in question’s family was one of the rulers of the city, therefore he chose to take a bathroom break but to his astonishment, the replacement referee was quicker than him and had already taken a bathroom break. Finding no way out the referee just looked the other way.
Corey’s proposal of keeping the item card attracted Tammy’s interest. With some hesitance, she took the card to check the card info. She thought this wouldn’t hurt anybody. Reading the card info Tammy finally knew the source of the agonising cry and the fear she felt earlier clashing swords with Corey. Knowing the strength of the card given to her by Corey Tammy’s mind and heart started a duel of their own.
Her heart said, ‘What about our self-esteem? Have we fallen to the point of accepting pity from the one who destroyed our life? Faq that bitch, let’s get out of here before it gets more embarrassing.’
Her mind said, ‘Yes, what about our self-esteem? Faq that it is overrated. With our savings, we cannot even afford another subpar Feather Petal Sword card. Let’s take that rich girl’s offer, with a card like Tainted One we can contribute more during the dungeon raid and get more money.’
If Tammy followed her heart she would have to cut back on her food and daily essentials to pay for a new sword and the house rent. But if she follows her mind not only will she get a new sword but she will get stronger which basically in her line of work meant more money.
Having lived and experienced the jungle society Tammy knew following her heart would get her killed faster so she did not hesitate any longer and equipped the card in her grimoire and summoned, “Tainted One”
“This does not mean that I have forgiven you. As you said, this is just good business.” Tammy made intentions clear to Corey.
“Yes, come at me when you are ready.” Said Corey as she took a defensive stance.
“1st Blossom Slash” Tammy no longer hesitated, she leapt towards Corey and brandished her sword.
“Sword song – 1st Mudra” Corey did not underestimate her enemy and activated her card’s additional effect.
*Cryyyy!!!**Cryyyy!!!* The cry of two tainted ones clashing with each other sounded trout out the arena cancelling out the Fear abnormal status of each other.
During this clash Tammy, thanks to her 5% critical chance, held the upper hand by pushing Corey a few steps despite her blocking Tammy’s sword. The duel had just begun and it was hard to tell who was stronger and who would win.
“2nd Blossom Slash”
“Sword song – 2nd Mudra”
“3rd Blossom Slash”
“Sword song – 3rd Mudra”
“4th Blossom Slash”
“Sword song – 4th Mudra”
.
.
.
“7th Blossom Slash”
“Sword song – 7th Mudra”
By the 7th clash, Corey’s slash had accumulated 7 times the damage and triggered the 15% critical chance of Sword Song. Allowing her to dominate Tammy with absolute strength. Unable to bear the strength behind Corey’s slash, Tammy’s sword bounced out of her hand as she fell on her butt.
“I surrender.” Feeling the coldness of the sword placed on her neck by Corey, Tammy did not struggle and chose to surrender. If she was not so focused on triggering her Origin card effect Tammy could have dodged Corey’s last sword and dragged the duel to a draw, maybe or maybe not. Cause who knows what kind of other cards Corey is hiding because Tammy can feel that Corey had not displayed her full strength to fight against her.
Picking up the Tainted One and turning to the audience Tammy said, “This is the Best Sword I have seen in the E-rank and Common grade category in the market, I will rate it a 5-star experience.” And then turning to Tammy she added, “I am keeping it.”
“Sure, happy cooperation.” Replied Corey.
Hearing Corey the referee who was going to announce set 5 Arena 37’s result cursed at his ill fate inwardly and announced,
“Set 5, Arena 37 Winner Corey Bright”
Before leaving the arena Corey yelled at the audience, ” Everyone My card studio opens on the 30th of this month. Please search Corey’s Card Studio in your grimoire network to visit my online shop for information and to avail limited period offers.” Advertising her Card studio Corey went down the arena but instead of heading to the VIP section, she headed to the seats of the New Song guild.
Corey’s self advertisements astonished many advance and contestants alike. Especially me, I even blamed myself for not coming up with such a good idea. Free advertisement to the whole Sky Blossom city, count me in.
…
New Song guild leader was having a good day receiving praises and envy filled gazes from fellow guild leaders for having 4 under 18 card soldier guild members representing their guild in the tournament. Until the 5th set where Tammy, one of his star members stirred up trouble which he could never have imagined.
Thankfully the Bright family heiress did not seem to mind rudeness rather appreciated it, calming his nerves. But he decided to get stricter with Tammy and reprimand her for the stunt she pulled in the arena. Does she not know she is no longer an average student, She is the New Song adventure guild member. Her every action and deed will be associated with the guild.
When Tammy retired to her seat. The Guild leader just decided to teach her some manners but saw the Bright family Heiress walk towards Tammy so he decided to stay put. And eavesdrop on their conversation.
