[Please wait as one of our Sales executives reaches you. ]

[expected wait ti: 45seconds]

Soon a bob cut brunette dressed in office attire walked to and said “Welco to Sky Blossom Adventure Guild Mall, how may I help you?”

I realised that I don’t know what I want to buy, I an I know I want to buy so skill/item cards but which ones to buy was the question.

I couldn’t just ask her to show all the cards in the mall, I could but my skin wasn’t that thick enough and I was on a low budget.

Seeing my dilemma the sales lady said “Sir, If I may I would like to recomnd you to our card apprentice beginner’s catalog”

“That would be helpful.”

Then the saleslady forwarded the card apprentice beginner’s catalog to my grimoire.

[Card Apprentice Beginner’s Catalog]

Interestingly enough the first thing on the catalogue was a Storage Item Card.

[Card Na: Storage Trunk

Card Type: Item Card

Card Rank: F rank, common grade

Card Durability : [60/60]

Card effect: summon a heavy-duty military-grade 410 Ltr Storage Trunk. Additional effect temperature control.

Card Cost : 3,499$

“3500$ for a storage trunk you kidding is it made of gold?!”

The bank loaned 4000$ of which I spent 130$ on the buffet including the cab charges to get here, All I have left on now is 3870$.

4000$ is not much but based on young Wyatt’s credit history bank wouldn’t even consider giving a penny If not for contracting a silver grimoire.

Hearing curse the professional smile of the saleslady did not lessen, rather she nodded in an understanding manner and said “Sir the storage trunk cos with an additional effect of temperature control and is quite popular among new adventurers. As it can be used to store food, at, drinks for a long ti.”

So, it’s a fridge no more than a fridge as temperature control ans it can switch between hot and cold.

No that’s not the point, the point is I can summon it whenever and wherever I want.

Just thinking about the endless possibilities of this Item card I agreed with its price, if it were I would charge more.

Letting out a sigh I started to look at other cards in the catalogue,

Turns out the Storage Trunk card was the only card in the Catalog I could buy.

‘Damn just how poor am I?’ I was frustrated seeing the numbers in front of . These were just the cheapest beginner level skill/item card and I could not afford any one of them.

“Sir, anything to your liking?”

“Um! Why is the Storage trunk card cheap?”

” Sir due to its low durability Storage trunk card is cheaper compared to other cards, rest assured all the other cards in the catalogue have 80 or above durability.”

Card Durability ratings represent the life span and quality of a card, low durability ans low quality. No wonder it is so cheap compared to other cards.

Weapons or Skill cards cannot be of low durability because if the card loses its effect during a battle then it would be disastrous for the card apprentice and his party.

I really could not afford any of the cards in the Card Apprentice Beginner’s Catalog.

“Are there any occupation related skill card?”

“Yes sir, fortunately, we do have one occupation-related skill card.”

[Card Na: Masseuse’s hand

Card Type: Skill Card

Card Rank: E rank, common grade

Card Ratings: 13stars

Card Durability : [87/87]

Card effect: user gains elite level masseuse technique. Additional effects are stimulation, circulation, relaxation]

Card cost : 293,000$

‘Wow!’ With this card, any moron can beco a professional masseuse, especially with the three additional effects but it ain’t cheap either.

Occupation related skill cards are very rare they usually get snatched as soon as they appear in the market because such a card would an a stable source of inco for a small family.

I wasn’t considering buying this card only asked out of curiosity. Since I can’t afford any cards then I can only create my own cards.
