Eating the last monster leg, I looked at Susan who was sulking for not eating fast enough.
“Remind not to go out for barbeque with you again, you eat like a hunger ghost incarnation.”
“I am doing you a favour, a lady should watch what she eats.”
“What did you say to ?!”
“Ahem! Nothing, You know which card has high returns? I am thinking about mass producing these cards to make up for the rest of the money for the E rank ingredients.”
Even though I made more than 6 million in this auction it wasn’t enough to pay for all the ingredients and copyrights for 50 E rank cards.
“It is obvious, storage trunk and vehicle cards of mortal grade. These cards have a huge market as they are needed by both card apprentices and mortals.”
Storage trunk or vehicle, of the two Storage trunk ingredients, were cheaper, all it needed was a working trunk and a mortal core.
But it was harder to create than an E rank card as it is a type of card that can house items within it when it morphs into a card or a trunk.
For the trunk to morph into a card with items in it, it should have all its soul pathway perfectly outlined with no cracks or leaks otherwise it won’t morph into a card housing different items.
Due to its difficulties in card creation, this card cost more than the average E rank card. For , this card was a gold mine, thanks to my Soul Pupils.
As for vehicle cards, they are mortal cards that morph cars into cards, it removes all the disadvantages of owning a car, parking! No need for parking as your car morphed into a card.
This card cost depends on the car used as an ingredient for creating the card. And also because transferring soul pathways of sothing as huge as a car is very hectic and ti-consuming the labour cost on this is very high equal to creating an E rank card even though it’s a G rank mortal grade card.
It was obvious which card was perfect for to mass produce, Storage Trunk.
Storage trunk has various variety like suitcase, briefcase, handbags, school bags, vault etc
But of course the most popular was the Storage trunk because if one has thick skin they can use the storage trunk as all the five ntioned above.
So, I decided on the Storage trunk card for mass production. Creating hundreds of G rank mortal grade cards was nothing for my current ntal strength.
“Okay, it settled storage trunk cards! As for ingredients, let’s use heavy-duty military-grade trunks, not those cheap trunks.”
“Okay, but how many sets of ingredients?”
“Let’s start with 100 sets.”
“Cough! cough! 100 sets, tell you are kidding!”
“No, but where are we going to place these 100 trunks?”
“You don’t have to worry about that as an associate auction manager I have been allotted a warehouse for my use. I will have them deliver the trunks there.”
“I’m… I am thinking about making a car card. Do you want one?”
“No, I don’t have enough money to own one right now.”
“Okay, when you do, tell I will create one for you for free. Which car is popular right now?”
“What kind of car are you looking for? SUV, sedan, hunchback, sports, luxury, muscle, truck, convertible, coupe, off-road, which is it?”
“A muscle car! Send the catalogue, I will choose one.”
” I will do you one better, let’s go to Guild association garage. I have a friend there, she can hook us up. She is a little passionate about her work so don’t mind her when you et her okay.”
“No worries.”

“Hi Martha, Wyatt et Martha. Martha this is Wyatt, my benefactor.”
Looking at the tall muscular handso and hairy woman with the grease-stained uniform and hands in front of I was speechless. She is passionate about her work I thought.
“Hi Susan, what brings you here? And who is this shorty?” She looked at as if looking at a love rival.
“Okay listen up you blasphemy of womankind! I am of normal height. It’s not my fault that life is unfair to you.” Glaring at the gorilla in front of , I snapped. No man can tolerate being called ‘Shorty’ by a woman.
“blasphemy of womankind! That’s a new one haha, It’s decided I will make your skinny @ss my b!tch.!” Martha was enraged but also amused being called blasphemy of womankind! Now that’s just creative.
Martha moved to grab , without cards I was no match for her but I could not bring myself to use cards on a mortal so I backed up.
Thankfully Susan ca in front of , shielding from the big grease gorilla hands.
“Martha stop it, Wyatt is a friend.”
Martha didn’t respond to Susan but stopped and taunted , “shorty! Aren’t you a man? hiding behind a woman’s back and letting a woman fight your battle, have you no sha?”
“Haha at least I am man enough to get a woman to stand up for , what about you? No man or woman will willingly stand up for you!”
“Okay, that’s it, you… “
“Stop It Both Of You!!” Susan thundered using the voice control card.
My ears buzzed for almost 5seconds.
Looking at and Martha covering our ears and still muddled, with a devilish smile Susan said ” I love using this card, give a reason to”
Martha snorted at and turned to Susan and said “Congratulations on becoming an Associate Auction manager.”
“Thank you! Tonight dinner at my place.”
“Just you and right”
“Sorry, I invited the whole gang for a celebration.”
“What about him?” Asked Martha.
Not waiting for Susan to answer I said “I am not invited…. ” Seeing the smile forming on Martha’s face I added,” She already treated to a luxury spa package and expensive breakfast.”
Martha’s eyes widened and she looked at Susan for denial, only to be disappointed as Susan maintained a straight face and said “We ca here to buy a car.”
Hearing the word car Martha forgot her disappointnt and excitedly asked “Is it for you?”
“Aaa… Not for but him.”
“Sorry, we have a minimum height requirent for buying a car here.” Said Martha sarcastically.
But I didn’t care about her remarks as my eyes were glued to the hoverbike that just passed by the other side of the glass wall of the waiting room.
“I want that!” I said pointing at the hoverbike.
“In your dreams, they are our latest model and not yet out in the market. You could manage to get your hands on one of them if only you knew soone inside.”
“Cut the crap, tell what is it gonna cost ?”
Martha looked at with a vulgar look which all most made vomit in disgust. So, I looked at Susan for her help but she shrugged her shoulders in helplessness.
“I will die but not be insulted,” I shouted.
Susan and Martha broke into laughter which lasted for few minutes before they finally stopped.
“Martha already has a boyfriend”
“What?! Who is desperate enough to be with her.”
“Hey watch it! I am tolerating you because you are with Susan, don’t test !”
“Sorry!” I apologized sincerely as even gorillas have the right to love and be loved.
“That one really, I thought you wanted a muscle car. What happened?”asked Susan
“Muscle car uh! You n and your overcompensation” Said Martha scanning from head to toe.
I choose to ignore that remark and said “That was before I saw that beauty, it’s like love at first sight.”
Being an inventor in past life so of my unrequited love was the hovercar and a hover motorcycle. Theoretically, it was possible but experintally our technology was lacking.
Now that I have finally got a chance to own a hoverbike I could not resist the temptation.
“Hold your horse’s lover boy! Rember I told you it’s still not in the market!”
“Martha we are not on the best of terms but I want that Motorcycle. Just help this once I will owe you one”
“You are right we are not on the best of terms but seeing how you are Susan’s friend let give it to you straight, what you just saw was a card ingredient for an E class card recipe of our latest hoverbike.
That ingredient alone will cost you near 350,000$ and if you add other ingredients and card creation labour charges etc it will cost you near 12 million dollars.
Even if you can afford it, it will take a minimum of a week to get you the final card. that is if the card apprentice succeeds in his first try.”
“Wait! does that an, you can get all the card ingredients and card recipe.”
“Yes, are you planning to get outside help for card creation then you have to pay for the copyright but if you create the card yourself for your use then the copyright is free.”
We have to pay for copyright when using outside help because the guild wants the custor to choose the guild card apprentices over the freelance Card apprentices but it’s okay if the custor himself is going to create the card.
“I will be creating the card myself. how much?”
“If you go with the stock body then it will cost you near 2,150,000$ in total but for the custom body it will cost you from 2,900,000$ to 4,000,000$.”
“I will go with the stock body, does it co in black?”
“Stock Black uh! You choose wisely. But you sure you want to take chance with card creation. After all, you are spending a butt load of money.”
“Don’t worry Martha our Wyatt is a genius when it cos to card creation.” Bragged Susan.
“If you say so!” Martha didn’t seem to believe Susan’s words.
