Time- 03:31

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

World’s impression of homegrown demon cores aside, This life core guardian of Asong’s was truly overpowered. This showed how much recognition Asong had gained from the World’s will. Seeing the enhancement provided to her origin card by the world’s will I couldn’t help but want to try and figure out the different ways to gain the world will’s recognition. 

With the abilities of her origin card, Asong could just sleep for decades in the shell monster and awaken as a card demigod. She did not even have to try. That was how much the World favored Asong. For example take the Growth Revision ability of the life core guardian, from its info it appeared nothing less than fucking growth cheats. What does growing towards perfection even mean? To add to that this was incomplete ability info, what else more could this ability do, wasn’t perfection already the limit? 

Then the Supreme soul devourer, this ability basically allowed the Asong to devourer souls to replenish her soul energy and increase her active soul control. If this was not an overpowered cheat then what was. 

Soul illumination, World blessing, origin mucus all these abilities were overpowered too, there was no question that Asong’s origin card was too overpowered, but it was a pity that it only made her overpowered in terms of support ability and its attack abilities were still lacking. Except for the soul illumination, and thorn shower abilities the Life Core Guardian lacked attack force, and these abilities were not exactly attack-type abilities but crowd control type abilities. But they had more lethality than regular attack abilities because they were just too overpowered. 

Keeping the overpowered abilities aside, Asong lied to me about the number of card apprentices she could hold in her Life Core Guardian’s shell’s health space. According to her, currently, she could only store ten card apprentices at max but the Swallow ability of the Life Core Guardian told a different story. The info on the Swallow ability read that the guardian could shrink its target and store them in its health space. That meant the math that Asong narrated to me that her health space could only hold 10 card apprentices at present was big lie. 

According to Asong, the size of the health space is 3000 cubic meters and at present, it could fit ten card apprentices allotting 300 cubic meters of independent space per head but things change when you consider that the Swallow ability of the Guardian allows it to shrink its target before it swallows and stores them in its health space. Since I do not know how much a card apprentice can shrink under the Swallow ability of the guardian, I can’t do the math to figure out exactly how many card apprentices Asong can fit in the Health space but I know it was a way bigger number than ten. In the end, Asong not only try to deceive me about her card info but also lied to my face about how many card apprentices she could fit in the life core guardian’s health space. 

Aside from my jealousy of Asong’s origin card and dissatisfaction with her for lying and trying to deceive me overall I have managed to achieve what I had set out to achieve. The two most pressing issues I kept in my mind while creating Asong’s origin card were to cure her medical condition and help her become strong enough to survive any kind of assassination attack. Asong’s origin card life core was able to achieve both of the issues with its abilities, Life core and Supreme cleansing. As a card creationist, I was proud to announce that I had done my part but as a friend, I was a little dissatisfied with Asong. A little because of the reasons behind her acts, but in the end when push came to shove she choose to lie and deceive me instead of giving me a straightforward answer that she couldn’t share her origin card info. Then she would be in the clear while I would be the bad friend who would not take a no for an answer and try to get information by hacking into her grimoire. So in the end I was no better. Asong did what she thought would be the best to save her friendship while not revealing her secrets and in other scenario I would have acted as if I respected Asong’s choice and would have done the opposite behind her back to satisfy my curiosity. We both would do what we felt was right. 

Until now my footprint on the future timeline mostly affected the bounds of the southern region but by intervening in Asong’s dead my footprint on the future timeline will now cover all five regions, which meant that the future Clown mask saw and the future we are going to experience will have many unforeseen changes and Clown Mask’s future vision will become less relevant as the time passed, well this was to be expected and I was not worried about losing the advantage of knowing the future because the future in which I wasn’t present was something I was trying to escape. So if I am able to successfully make waves in the timeline and deviate it from its natural course then doesn’t that mean I am changing the future to create a timeline where I get to live the chill life I had dreamed of. 

”Wyatt, I hope you are true to your word because I cannot bear the consequences that would follow if the word gets out,” said Asong. Though she was not surprised that I read the addition card info of her origin card that she was trying to hide considering that I could see past her tricks, she was worried about the consequences that would follow if her origin card info were revealed to the world or just the fact that she was one of the lucky few to receive the world’s blessing.
