Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild a.s.sociation Mall, Warehouse no.234
"Anna, how are you going to trick the world's will into opening the diamond grimoire using using the 'The Dummy' card." I racked up my brain for every possible way but I could not think of an answer to how the 'The Dummy' card would accept the blood of a dead person.
"Well, Ann showed you the effects of the card right?" Anna spoke as if the answer to my question was in the 'The Dummy' card info.
"Yes, she did. Are you implying that the 'The Dummy' card works on the blood of a dead person too?" I asked as it was too bizarre for me to just accept it.
"Yes. Mind-blowing right? Even the creator of this card would not have thought of this. They say some drunk card emperor found this method by mistake." Anna was not enthusiastic about going into the technical details but was enthusiastic about gossiping stories with no merits to them.
"..." Ignoring Anna, I turned to Ann she seemed to go out of her way to make sure that I understood what she was explaining, how considerate of her. Glancing at Ann I cannot help but wonder how can there be an origin card that was the better version of the card apprentice. It was like the universe mocking Anna that she could be replaced with a better version of herself. No wonder Anna would hide her origin card.
Feeling my gaze Ann looked at me and answered without me having to ask her, "Master Wyatt, the 'The Dummy' card is one of a kind, you already know that it replaces the card apprentice to take immediate damage be it physical or soul-related damage. It is able to do that because it a.s.sumes the ident.i.ty of the card apprentice whose blood it has been fed with. So what happens to the card when it is fed with a dead person's card?"
"Does it a.s.sume the ident.i.ty of the dead person?" I answered understanding how the 'The Dummy' card worked. My eyes s.h.i.+ned bright as finally, I knew why the card would accept a dead person's blood. Earlier I was too stuck with the card effect, and forget to ask how the effects of the card were possible.
"Yes," Ann responded with a gentle smile.
"So, What are we waiting for now? Why aren't we summoning the dummy to open the diamond grimoire." In curiosity, I even forgot that if the diamond grimoire were to be opened, I would be in a lot of trouble.
"Well, though the dummy has a.s.sumed Yin widow's ident.i.ty, it does not have her soul energy to open the grimoire. Normally we could feed the dummy with soul energy and it would open the diamond grimoire but Yin Widow is dead for a long period now so the grimoire will scrutinize the soul energy fed by the dummy before allowing it to open the grimoire. Since we are feeding the dummy with external soul energy its soul energy signature will not match Yin widow, so instead, we will end up alerting the world's will. As the consequence, the grimoire will be destroyed by the world's will and it will punish the dummy and the card apprentice equipping it." Ann paused allowing me to soak in the consequence of failing to trick the world's will.
"So, how do we address this problem?" I asked Ann thinking that since Yin Widow is dead mimicking her soul energy is going to be impossible. But if that were true they would not try to open the diamond grimoire in the first place. Since they are trying it anyway then they should have a way around it.
"We fed the dummy a little soul energy and wait until the soul energy inside the dummy adapts the signature of the Yin widow's soul energy," Ann answered.
"Is that possible?" I know I am asking the obvious since they are trying it then it was hundred percent possible.
"Yes. Since the dummy has a.s.sumed the Yin widow's ident.i.ty, once the soul energy adapts to the dummy it will resemble the Yin widow's soul energy." Ann knew what I meant by my question so explained to me how the soul energy fed to the dummy would duplicate the signature of the Yin Widow's soul energy.
"So, how long will it take for that to happen?" I asked Ann.
"Um, about 9 to 12 hours," Ann answered casually.
"Okay," responding to Ann I thought, 'That means I still have time to get rid of Redfall's soul.'
"Master Wyatt, since all the ingredients you ordered are here so why don't we get started with my origin card creation," Asong asked seeing that I was done with my questions. I thought she wanted to wait until after she handled the Redfall matter but there was a lot of time to spare in between so I guess she wants to get it over with and use the available time more appropriately.
"Sure. Since it is about time for dinner. Why don't start after our dinner?" I made an excuse to buy myself some time to think of ways to get rid of demiG.o.d Redfall's soul, if I am caught with his soul on the person I don't know how I am going to explain myself to Anna and the rest.
"Okay then." Asong agreed after all it was not every day she got to eat with friends.
"Did somebody say dinner? The dinner is ready. Let me set up the dinner table," Agatha announced as she walked out of the kitchen, and glancing at dublicate Anna and Susan, she added, "It seems we have additional guests. No worries, I made extra."
Agatha summoned a huge a.s.s fancy dinner table, covered it with a clean white table cloth, arranged all the plates and cutleries, and placed her home-cooked dinner on the table. With that, the whole warehouse was filled with a flavorful smell that would make a person's mouth water. It seems Agatha went all out preparing the dinner.
