"Boss, Rami Kaga took the bait and invited us for dinner." Diana had forwarded the card info of Blood elixir to various auctions, private collectors, and brokers. Considering that blood elixir is a rune medical item card, it did not take long for the rumors about it to spread throughout the sky blossom city market. And it took three hours for the talks about blood elixir cards to reach the ear of the head of the Blossom District medical card association who is visiting the city. 

"Good, but I was expecting a private meeting." I was happy that a meeting with Rami Kaga could be arranged at such short notice, but I wanted a private session to use the calamity daughter gem. So hearing that we were invited to a dinner, I couldn't help but frown because this meant there would be many witnesses. 

"Sorry, boss. I tried, but it seems Rami Kaga's schedule is tightly booked. Or at least that's what his secretary said." This was the privilege of the people with authority. Rami Kaga wanted to buy our blood elixir cards, but we had to meet him at his convenience to sell our cards. Ain't this bullshit. 

Not to mention that blood elixir cards are one of a kind with zero competition in the market as they are manufactured using the blood rule, meaning comprehended by Van. These cards were more than rare. They are unique. People would beg at our doors to buy blood elixir cards, but we had to follow Rami Kaga's arrangement. This is the privilege that only comes with having authority. 

"Fine, I will make do with it." I had no choice but to come up with other stealth ways to sow my calamity daughter gem in Rami Kaga. I would not get such a golden opportunity to plant a calamity daughter gem who could control the entire sun blossom city 

"Boss, the Dinner meeting is at 19:30. If you tell me who will be attending the meeting with you, I can make appropriate arrangements." Diana asked. 

"Just Guild master Van and you," I replied and then asked, " How are the plans for the carrier floaters coming?" 

"I have assigned Cindy to that task as her origin card is a good fit for the task. She will contact you once she is done, boss." Diana responded as she made transportation arrangements for the dinner meeting in the evening.

"Diana Keith, party of three," Diana announced to the front desk. 

"This way, madam. Mr. Rami Kaga is expecting you at VIP box no.01. Please enjoy your stay here." The lady at the front desk guided us to Rami Kaga.

"Sir, Ms. Diana Keith and her plus two have arrived." The staff announced our arrival in the VIP box and let us in. 

"Right on time, Ms. Diana. It seems you are as eager as me. Let's not waste on pointless chatter and get to the point of our meeting. I have another meeting in about 15 minutes." A silver-haired wrinkled Oldman in a suit greeted Diana. With his words, he made it clear that he was Rami Kaga. Surprisingly, he was alone in the spacious VIP box. As the head of the Blossom District Medical card association, I expected him to have a few bodyguards. 

Thanks to the ability ' you see me, I see you ' of my calamity daughter gem, I was not deceived by what I saw. As soon as I entered the VIP box, I felt four extra pairs of eyes watching me since I could not turn into my Gigamite form to catch the voyeurs using the other half of the skill. I opened my soul pupils, and what I found made me realize that I could not go through the plan. 

I found four peak Card Overlords, each hiding in the shadows of four corners of the VIP box, monitoring Diana, Van, and me. They weren't the problem. The problem was as I swept my gaze through the VIP box for anything else unexpected, I learned that Rami Kaga himself was a Card Overlord. Yes, the silver-haired crusty old bastard was a card overlord. Fock! Diana, why did you not tell me that this old Mitch is a card overlord. I can't blame her because she thought I would coerce him. How could she know that I was planning to use my calamity daughter gem? 

The only limitation of the calamity daughter gem is that it cannot be used on someone in a higher realm than my grimoire grade. Currently, I had a golden grade grimoire which meant that I could only use calamity daughter gem on card apprentice in or below Card Lord realm. Which meant I could not use calamity daughter gem to control Rami Kaga, who is in the Card Overlord realm. 

I guess I have no choice but to improvise now. I mean, the man loves to collect medical cards and is the head of the blossom district medical card association, so I bet a man in his position would be thrilled to have a card apprentice like Van who can create Blood Elixir on a wimp. Now that everything has come down to this, I had no choice but to use Van and his blood rule meaning, blood elixir, to negotiate with Rami Kaga. 

"Sure, Mr. Rami. But let me first introduce you to the creator of the Blood elixir card, guild master Van. And the owner of the card boutique that holds the rights to Blood elixir cards, Golden grade Card creationist, Dalton Wyatt." Diana introduced Van and me to Rami Kaga. 

"Hahaha, that kid is a golden grade card creationist? Ms. Diana, you are funny." Rami Kaga laughed, pointing at me. Clearly, this man was drunk on pride and arrogance that came with his authority. 

"..." In response to Rami Kaga's laughter, I summoned my golden grade grimoire. 

"Wait, you are not joking." Said Rami to Diana, witnessing me summon a golden grade grimoire. And later, turning to me, he added, " Aren't you too young to be a golden grade card creationist?"

"Yes, Yes I am."
