I had the myriad devil body rune card to thank for my new partial immortality but it ca with so restrictions. For example, in dungeons, if I am inside a dungeon all my connection to the outside world gets limited, and I cannot access the grimoire network or use Hive AI to contact calamity daughter gem outside. aning if I were to die in the dungeon I cannot move my mutated soul into a pseudo calamity soul gem located outside of the dungeon but it's another thing if I had pseudo calamity soul gems hidden in the dungeon.
Pseudo Calamity Soul Gem? The calamity soul gem created using calamity daughter gem and myriad devil transformation are just shells of calamity soul gem without my mutated soul within them, so I thought it would be better to call the calamity soul gems without my mutated soul within them pseudo calamity soul gem.
Anyway apart from my partial immortality being limited within the dungeons, it was also weak to curses. But my mutated Viltronian physique, Gigamite, seed to have strong resistance to curses, Viltronian physique in general seems to have strong resistance to curses. But this resistance was only limited to the curses of the sa realm, not curses of the higher realm that I have been facing these past few days. Making grateful for the dummy ring given to by Anna.
Speaking of Anna, apart from our conflicted interest regarding silver milk powder and her occasional non-consensual sexual behavior with , she has been pretty good to , so much so that these past few days I preferred having her around and had grown dependent on her. Which I saw as a sign of threat thinking what if soday the southern royal family were to turn on , no, to be exact, what if soday Anna were to favor her family over , then without her by my side I would be crippled. This was why I wanted to expand my connections as soon as possible.
Fearing for the what if, I was conflicted and acted out but seeing the silly girl throw herself at death for , I understood that instead of preparing for the unknown future I should fight hard to protect the present I prefer so that it can grow into a future that I dread of having.
This was the enlightennt I got from Anna's willingness to sacrifice herself for .
So, when I saw the semi-demigod chick's non-stop sneak attacks use Anna like a baseball, instead of running away like it was not my problem, I decided to do what I can. That girl ca to my rescue every single ti I needed her in one way or another, and that was why I planned to do everything in my power to assist her.
As a card soldier currently I could do nothing to help Anna, except for revealing my location to the semi-demigod to divert her attention from Anna to , but knowing Anna, she would desperately try to stop the semi-demigod from reaching. In the end, the only thing I could think of to help Anna would instead end up being counter-productive. It's a sin to be weak. This helpless feeling never gets old.
When I was out of ideas, I rembered the card given to by Jill, she did give the card saying it will be helpful in my ti of need.
[Card Na: Equal Exchange
Card Type: Demonic Card
Card Rank: A-rank, Rare-Grade
Card Rate: 8-Stars
Card Effect: You can exchange anything you want in exchange for anything of equal value.
Note: Do not equip it.]
Like Jill said this card was indeed a demonic card that could help but she undersold its helpfulness to . I don't know if it was because she wasn't aware of it or she did not think it was necessary.
I say so because this card was not what it said it was. aning the card info shown on the card was false, if not for my soul pupils even I would not have seen through the trickery of this card. Using the Hive AI along with my soul pupils I finally decoded the real card info,
[ Card Na: Devil rchant
Card Type: Demonic Summons Card
Card Rank: -/-
Card Rate: -/-
Card Effect: Using this card, the user can summon the Devil rchant, Belphegor. The user can exchange or buy anything they want for a reasonable price from the devil rchant.
Additional Effect: Devil's Pact
Caution: Once the card is equipped, the user cannot unequip it without summoning the devil once.
Note: The summoned devil rchant will follow the rchant code and not intervene with the summoner's world order.]
Devil's Pact: This pact serves as the proof of deal between the devil rchant and the custor. This pact also allows the user to borrow anything from the Devil Marchant for the promise of making the paynt at a later date.
Note: Devil's Pact is governed by Devil rchant code and it is advised that the parties involved sign it at their discretion.
Reading the true card info of the card given to by Jill, I learned it was not just any demonic card but a demonic summons card that would summon a devil. It was not actually called Equal Exchange but Devil rchant when used it would summon a devil nad Belphegor, who would grant anything in exchange for sothing of equal value, and if I don't plan to pay now I could pay for it later by entering a devil's pact with the devil rchant Belphegor.
One would forsake any notion of equipping this card based on the caution stated by the card but considering my situation, I did not have many options, so forgive if I was considering equipping it.
Equipping the Devil rchant card aside, even if I were to go through with it, what do I ask for? and exchange it for what? The answer was simple but difficult at the sa ti, 'How far was I willing to go to help Anna.'
