Location- Sky Blossom City, Lion Cubs High, Principal’s Office
Yes, I could just not participate in tomorrow’s tournant. They can not force
to participate because of the card emperor’s protection over
which also extended to people close to . So they cannot threaten
into participating in the tournant. So, why are they so sure that I will participate?
My source of any important info till now were Elliott and William. I cannot get in touch with Elliott since the last ti I saw Anna drag him to celebrate. As for William, he did warn
about the Circle indirectly but I piss him off for obvious reasons. Maybe I should try contacting Eliza Whiteburn she must know what the fuck is going on. After all, she owes
for helping her siblings when the whole city turned their back on them.
As for the ti being I could only ask Andrea but I could not trust him, he knew a lot about
but I knew nothing about him. I guess this is why Andrea was being so respectful and polite towards . Wait! Andrea said Cortney is related to a mber of the circle and is also his superior which ans he is also related to the circle. Can I trust this guy? Not to ntion his origin card, this guy was tricky to deal with.
“What makes them so sure that I will participate in tomorrow’s tournant?” I decided to take what I can get from Andrea for now. And check its authenticity later with Eliza or William.
“The city’s prophet has proclaid that you will participate in the tournant no matter what.” Said Andrea with a straight face.
“Are you being serious?” If yes then this would be the greatest joke I heard this year.
“And also because the first prize is a false relic. The circle is going to great lengths to make sure you participate. They want to eliminate any future troubles. I am sure you should have already learnt about the murder of your parents by now from the Kane survivors. Did you think sending them to Blossom Cake city would not make the circle suspicious? It did work but once the Circle heard what you are capable of they investigated deeper and found out that the Kane trio Are out of coma and are currently working under JK Elliot as per your instruction.” Explained Andrea.
‘False Relic’ ‘Kane Trio’ ‘your instruction’ except for my origin card calamity daughter core these people know everything about
and what I have been up till now. I bet they have already started to suspect that my origin card is not aura sight as I claid it to be but sothing that helps
in card creation.
Honestly, Andrea is not answering my question, he is testing how much they know about
is true using his origin card. The mont I asked him for an explanation I walked into his trap. Even though I knew it was a trap I walked in because I did not care as long as they did not know about my origin card calamity soul core it was fine.
‘False Relic’ ‘Kane Trio’ ‘your instruction’ all of these are trap words laid by Andrea. Especially ‘False Relic’ with the information provided to
by the Kane trio on mama and papa Wyatt’s death I knew where mama Wyatt got the false relic Soul Pupils. And right now Andrea was trying to figure out if I had that false relic. If I feigned ignorance and acted as if I did not know what a ‘False relic’ is then Andrea’s origin card would catch my lie and if I did not talk about it and avoid asking what a false relic is? then it was an indication that I had the false relic that Mama Wyatt was supposed to deliver to the Circle.
The false relic was not sothing that a commoner like
would know therefore it was an obvious tell sign. But Andrea’s origin card was not without loopholes, “by False relic, you an as the one Lord William Bright has?”
William and his false relic are quite popular. Many of William’s hardcore fans knew about the false relic behind the weirdness of William. Even though this did not put
in the clear it did not let Andrea know that I had the false relic. But still, suspicion about
having the false relic must have gotten stronger.
It seems I cannot find any answers here without answering so of theirs. Better I go to Eliza or William.
“Yes, like the one Lord William has.” Agreed Andrea.
“A false relic is indeed tempting… sign
up” I did not want to waste any more ti here because I finally realised the horror of Andrea’s card. I had lots of secrets on
compared to the last ti I et with Andrea… Rebirth, Soul pupils, Calamity soul core, etc not to ntion he was a lot cautious of
compared to our previous discussion. It was stupid of
to co to the principal’s office in the first place but thanks to this I got a lot of info.
“Sure! Here sign the liability waiver.” Said Andrea as he handed
a liability waiver with my info but missing my signature.
Taking the liability waiver I knew why these people were fearless to kill
even though they knew I had the protection of the card Emperor. The liability waiver that I was about to sign was their assurance and way out. If I sign this waiver I would be declaring that if by chance I died during the tournant then it would be my fault but nobody else.
These people had planned everything out. If it were a few days ago I would not sign this liability waiver if the first prize was sothing like a real relic but currently, I had 5 A-rank monsters protecting , I had confidence that I could defeat a card lord so an under 18 card fight tournant was not a sothing I needed to be afraid about.
I read the liability waiver thoroughly to check that there are no traps in it and also asked my slave consciousness and Hive AI to verify the contents of the liability waiver just in case I had missed sothing. Seeing that there was no trap in the waiver I signed it. Taking the waiver Andrea’s eyes shone brightly. I guess he achieved his mission.
The Waiver was pretty clear that if I did during a card fight with an under 18 sky blossom city participant then I died of my fault but nobody else.
