This was a rather expensive heater, which was usually only possessed by relatively wealthy people.
Another person present was a beautiful, elegant sister wearing a mink coat, with small, pointed horns on her head.
Her footsteps were light as a feather, and she didn’t even leave footprints in the snow.
It was uncertain whether she had excellent light body techniques or belonged to the Ethereal Tribe, which was known for its near-weightless mbers.
Walking beside the elegant sister was a robot with spider-like long tal legs.
The last one was the Handso Uncle that Ree Shil had encountered the day before.
"Boss, you guys made it!"
Soone recognized the four of them and promptly greeted them.
Turns out, these four were the club bosses who had jointly sponsored the Big Brother Cup tournant.
For the three clubs besides the Handso Uncle’s, their respective cities were located around the Snow Mountain Ruins.
"This is quite a rare sight."
The Tailcoat looked at both Ree Shil and Daniel Smith, then glanced at the Light Groups above their heads.
"Seems like soone’s been lucky enough to receive the Holy Spirit’s blessing so early."
The Elegant Sister lit her pipe and joined the conversation.
"How many rounds have the defenders won so far?"
Since neither card player was part of her club, the robot didn’t particularly care about the statues’ battles.
"Iron Manager, the defender has just begun their second round."
Soone answered her question.
"Oh?"
The Tailcoat raised an eyebrow.
It was natural for the challenger not to be ntioned, as they could only have fought one round beneath this statue.
But it was quite unusual for the defender to be starting their second ga.
It ant that both of them were powerful, regardless of who obtained the blessing.
"What a sha. Seems like we missed an exciting card ga."
Iron Manager sighed with regret.
"No, Iron Manager. They just completed the first round of revealing the cards. Even the first action round hadn’t started yet when the defender surrendered."
"Huh?"
Upon hearing this, the club bosses were all stunned.
Based on their experience, a card ga so brief would still receive the Holy Spirit’s Blessing.
It indicated that the compatibility between the blessing and the recipient must be quite high.
"From the intensity of the light, it should be a B-class battle card or an excellent B-class material card."
The Handso Uncle said with a sigh as his gaze wandered across Daniel Smith’s face.
In fact, regardless if it was a battle card or material card, the quality of the cards given by Sacred Spirit Blessing was impeccable.
As clubhouse bosses, their card playing skills and card deck might not necessarily be top-notch.
But at least their wealth and cards were undoubtedly top-tier.
And the Holy Spirit’s Blessing would be enough for them to feel interested, or even desire.
You can imagine how impressive the things that co with the Holy Spirit’s Blessing are.
Clang!
Just at that mont, a wave of tremors suddenly erupted from the Light Group.
The residual waves spread to everyone’s bodies, making them feel as if their faces were being hit by a gust of strong, shaking wind.
"The blessing is coming down!"
However, experienced onlookers recognized that this was a sign that the Light Group was about to land.
So not only did Ree Shil and Daniel Smith hold their breaths, but so did the surrounding audience who were eager to see who would receive the blessing.
Whoosh~
The Light Group slowly descended, making the light on the two people’s faces much stronger.
Then, the Light Group floated towards Daniel Smith.
"Wahahaha! I knew I was the chosen one... Huh?!"
Upon seeing it, Daniel Smith imdiately burst into laughter.
However, the Light Group only circled around him once and then quickly floated toward Ree Shil as if it was repulsed.
"?"
Ree Shil instinctively reached out with his hand, and the Light Group actually floated into his palm.
"Wow! It’s him!"
"They only played one round and received the blessing already!"
"So annoying! Especially how he didn’t even do anything, the ga ended before the first round was even done!"
For a mont, the onlookers all grumbled in envy.
"Is this one of your clubs’ Big Brother-Level players?"
The four club bosses asked each other.
Unexpectedly, everyone shook their heads.
Actually, both Ree Shil and Daniel Smith were mbers of the Elegant Sister’s club, but since they were relatively new mbers, she hadn’t gotten a chance to et or recognize them yet.
"Kid, what card did you get?"
"Yeah, yeah, let us see. At least we can admire it in envy."
The audience around them started urging him on with curiosity.
"Heh."
Faced with such a request, Ree Shil just gave a brief smile.
Subsequently, the card’s projection was displayed on his palm.
[Allow to perform a dance for you~]
In the projection, a figure made of Blue Light was holding a longsword upside down, bending towards Ree Shil.
Then, she started dancing gracefully.
Not only her body but also the longsword moved with her.
The originally fierce sword moves beca light and graceful in her hands, full of tenderness.
For a mont, everyone remained silent.
They were all fascinated by the beautiful card projection and dance.
Whoosh!
But the next second, Ree Shil flipped his palm over.
The dancing figure disappeared as if it had never existed.
"Don’t, Big Brother!"
"What do you an? It’s gone?"
"At least show us the card face!"
Everyone voiced their dissatisfaction and felt like sending him razor blades.
As they had figured out from the intensity of the light and other factors that this was a B-class card, they were extrely curious about the card face.
"Forget about showing the card face."
But Ree Shil just smiled and waved his hand.
What a joke! He could use this [Sword Dance Ghost] card imdiately.
Why would he give the opponents any hints about the card’s face?
After all, he was now a defender.
However, later he was inford that receiving the Holy Spirit’s Blessing ant he could no longer be a defender.
Since a statue’s Holy Spirit would only bless one person once, if he continued to be the defender, he would only be taking a spot and wasting the opportunities of others.
"Looks like we’ll have to continue working together."
Seeing Ree Shil being chased away from the card table, Daniel Smith felt a bit gloating.
However, thinking about the fact that the other party had received a blessing before leaving, he stopped gloating and felt sour instead.
"Alright, let’s go."
Ree Shil nodded, not refusing.
What was happening with the Holy Spirit Blessing seed quite mysterious, and he wasn’t sure if it had anything to do with Daniel Smith being his card table opponent.
Anyway, he was generous enough to temporarily grant so rit to the other party.
But at that ti, his main attention was on his own mind.
Now, two cards were displaying in his mind.
[Sword Dance Ghost] [Sword Soul Wood]
