Choosing to ignore Agatha’s dark humor I turned my attention to my grimoire, planning to go through the contents of the storage card sent by Anna. But I heard Agatha say, “Wyatt, I am not laughing at you but with you.”
“I finally know why Aba has such a hard time making friends. With you as her example Aba stood no chance,” I said in response to Agatha’s remark.
“Haha, now that’s not funny,” Agatha complained.
“Funny you would say that neither was you using your power to intimidate me,” Rather than the threat to my life that I felt because of Agatha’s twisted dark humor, I was more p.i.s.sed about the fact that Agatha had good laugh about it. Who does that, maybe serial killer buddies, ‘Haha, I will stab you.’
‘Haha, I stabbed you first.’
‘Aah, I was joking you son of b.i.t.c.h.’
‘Sorry, my bad.’
‘Aah, why did you stab me again?’
‘They call me Double Tap.’
As my imagination ran wild Agatha too felt her joe was not appropriate. Knowing that she went too far with her joke, Agatha decided to change the topic but she was not as smooth about it as she thought, “Wyatt, for someone who wants to go to the war in an hour you seem to be at leisure wasting time making small talk.”
“And whose fault was that? Agatha, tell me,” I glared at my shadow.
“Stop, looking at your shadow. People will think you have gone crazy,” Agatha said trying to get out of the hot seat.
“Who is to blame for that?” No matter what Agatha said all ended with her as the answer.
“I will stop talking,” Agatha pouted but finally went silent.
I was mistaken about Agatha, she was the most talkative bodyguard I had ever met. With Agatha as her bodyguard, no wonder Aba never felt the need to make friends. I bet, in her cla.s.s, Aba must be known as the weird girl who keeps staring at her shadow. Having figured out Agatha was the reason for all of Aba’s social shortcomings I felt pity for Aba, she never stood a chance.
Thankfully, according to the clown mask’s future vision, Asong was able to rectify Agatha’s mistake when it came to Aba’s personality. Hopefully, Asong will be able to do the same in this timeline. Which was highly unlikely because Asong did not need an heir anymore as she was no longer dying.
With Agatha no longer disturbing me I could finally focus on the preparation for the upcoming war. I began by accessing Anna’s storage card. It would have been funny if Anna had sent a legend or higher-grade storage card forgetting my current realm. I would be panicking as of now but I cannot disagree with the fact that it would have been funny. Fortunately did not forget and used an A-rank storage card to send me the items I asked for.
Opening the storage trunk I was disappointed as I found two cards neatly placed adjacent to each other in it. From the look of it, they looked like A-rank cards. I was expecting broken runes, not two rare-grade cards, hence my disappointment.
Upon closer look at the cards, my disappointment vanished remembering that broken runes dissipate in the surrounding atmosphere without a proper container to hold them. Before I could pick up the cards two read their info I heard Agatha say, “Look at you, your sugar mama sent you expensive gifts. Must be good.”
“Then, why don’t you find a sugar daddy for yourself, then we can compete who gets the best gifts,” I was not the least bit ashamed saying this. As I thought of having capable dotting sugar mama as a part of my ability. Some people have capable parents, some have capable teachers, and some have capable ancestors, I had a capable sugar mama. I felt no difference between the four.
“*Cough*Shameless,” Agatha mocked.
“For your information, not both of the cards are gifts from Anna, these broken runes are my advance payment on a project I planned with Dr. Luna,” I clarified to Agatha.
“One gift, two gifts, does it matter?” Agatha said.
“Tell that to the women in a harem,” I said for the sake of the argument and then went through the card info of the cards, Artificial Ego Gem, and Beezulbub’s wings.
Artificial Ego Gem contained the broken runes I asked for as my advance payment and the Beezulbub’s wings card was the gift from Anna. This showed how much she favored me. Having read its effects, I was quite moved by Anna’s gift. This card could save my life in case my plans fail and Agatha can’t come to my rescue.
[Card Name: Artificial Ego Gem
Card Type: Item card
Card Rank: A-rank, Rare-grade
Card Rate: 9-stars
Card Durability: [92/100]
Card Effect: This Artificial Ego gem was created by extracting the dissipating Ego gem of a dead card lord. Unlike the original Ego gem, the artificial ego gem cannot connect with the world’s will but it can be used to store and use Broken runes
Additional Effect: Soul Cover, Rune card operation, Creator’s oath.]
Soul Cover: The Artificial Ego Gem can store the soul of the card apprentice and protect it from any form of soul attacks within its rank.
Rune Card Operation: After equipping the Artificial Ego Gem card, the apprentice can use rune cards within the rank of the card.
Creator’s oath: As the world’s will and its rules as witness the creator of this card swears that the ego gem extracted to create this card was one with the consent of the concerned card apprentice.
The artificial Ego Gem was really a miraculous card, except for not being able to connect to the world’s will it gave the average card apprentice almost all the abilities of an Ego Gem. Though it was not as reliable as the original ego gem it was a good replacement for those that could not forge or were yet to forge their ego gem. The rank limitation was a huge drawback for the card but it was better than nothing.
