Location Sky Blossom City, Fine Gold Private Airfield, runway no.11
Debra’s life in Fine Gold couldn’t be more comfortable, thanks to her origin card the company valued her so much that they let her directly advance her grimoire to Silver grade and promised to let her upgrade to Golden grimoire if she showed positive exemplary results.
Her current role at Fine Gold is to be the exclusive bodyguard of Jaya Keith, she no longer had to risk her life dungeon diving and exploring the unknown just to make pennies while the guild ripped all the benefits like in her last job.
As the Silver employee of Fine Gold Debra was offered the best cards which suited her battle style and origin card perfectly.
She was also given various gadget Item cards, like the earpiece and glasses which connect with her grimoire allowing her to use the call and camera function of the grimoire without summoning the grimoire.
Not only that the earpiece and glasses give her access to the Fine Gold network which she can use for assistance in getting information, to call for emergency backup and report her and Jaya’s status.
Not to forget the black suit armour card inclusive of a black tux, black leather boots, black leather belt and a wristwatch. All these gadgets had their uses which she would require as the bodyguard of Jaya Keith.
Debra thought being a bodyguard would be a lot easier but she was wrong, she had to be alert constantly and observe every detail while monitoring the patron. This was a lot similar to exploring the dungeons.
Just now there was a crisis, without thinking Debra covered herself in her bone exoskeleton armour and jumped in front of Jaya to shield her from any frontal attacks but it turns out it was a false alarm.
But this was not the first false alarm today, she already had three such false cases before this situation. Back at the coffee shop, the girl was only reaching for sugar packets next to Jaya, for which the girl almost got her arm broken by Debra.
Resulting in Debra feeling that maybe dungeon diving would be better than being a bodyguard at least there she did not have to hold back.
…
Elliott who was heading to the Jk group airship suddenly turned and walked back to the Fine Gold group again, his entourage had no choice but to follow him quietly. Elliott could not walk fast because putting too much stress on the leg could lead to fractures in his leg bone.
His body was able to stand thanks to bone hardening passive cards he was using, his bones were soft as foam no matter how much you harden foam they would still crumble under pressure.
Jaya, who was considering how to inform her sister about the Jk Grain and Oil Ltd. backing out of the deal at the last minute saw Elliott slowly walk towards herself. Puzzled Jaya asked, “Mr Elliott having second thoughts about the contract.”
But Elliott did not answer her and just passed by her stopping in front of Debra as he eagerly asked, “Was that Ram bull ability that you used?”
Debra did not answer him but looked at Jaya for permission, it was not hard for Jaya to put one and two together, a guy with soft bones asking about Ram bull ability he could not be more clearer so Jaya nodded in approval.
Getting Jaya’s approval Debra answered, ” yes, it is.”
“Sorry to be rude but could you sell me the card. I beg you” Elliott looked directly into Debra’s eyes and pleaded.
Debra blushed and looked away, as Elliott was what you call ‘man pretty’. If she could she would have just gifted the card to him but unfortunately, “I am sorry, it is the ability of my Origin card.”
Hearing this Elliott left out a sorrowful laugh and thought, ‘why do I keep doing this to myself? Haven’t I learnt anything these past few years?’
As Elliott was pitying himself, Jaya walked next to him and said, “Debra’s fate ingredient was just a bone from undead remains nothing worth noting but our Card Creationist turned that worthless bone into an undead summon card using the bone production ability of Ram bull.”
Elliott heard Debra loud and clear and knew what she was hinting at, so after a few minutes of consideration he said, “what is it going to cost me?”
“Nothing much, how about you sign the contract, once The Jk group and Fine Gold group are partners then I will be obliged to help my friends.”
“No, that’s not possible.”
“Why? This is a win for both of us. You get to open a branch in Sky blossom city and we get a high-value client.”
“At first it seems that way but looking at how the ex-partners of Fine Gold ended up I know better than that.
You provide us with goods transportation and merchant services but along the way, you will slowly get to know our contacts, providers and start to acquire them one by one behind our backs until it’s enough for you to overthrow us.
Guild Association mall is a giant with the government supporting them, they will not feel any effect if they make less in 12 cities but our Jk group is different.
we are already pouring all our resources into expansion and if we fail then we will have no option but to shut down leaving you vultures to feed on our remains. And with us gone the market will be yours for the taking.”
Elliott explained, he was not explaining to Jaya or others but telling himself what he will be losing if he took Jaya up on her offer.
Jaya did not care, seeing how frantic Elliott acted she knew she had this guy in her palm.
One of the ladies from Elliott’s entourage dressed black in office attire walked next to him and said, “Sir we have found the Card creationist, he does not belong to any guild or group, he is a freelancer. I have the address, should I make transportation arrangements.”
Hearing the lady, Elliott came back to his sense and glared at Jaya for trying to take advantage of him.
Feeling Elliott’s glare Jaya just shrugged her shoulders and said, “you can’t blame a lady for trying, and we will arrange the required transportation after all you are Fine Gold guests”
Right now Jaya felt like the lord was playing a joke on her, she was so damned frustrated but had to act professionally.

“Wyatt, I have created an online shop for you on the public network and listed all your achievements and clients. I know this is not much but even if it brings a single client it’s worth it.”
“Thank you, Susan. Can you add Jaya Keith, I also helped her create an Origin card. She paid me 100 million $ as fees, rich people right!”
“Oh! So that’s where you got the money from. Okay then, I will add her too.”
“Whose address and contact info did you give?”
“I gave the warehouse address and my contact info. After all, I am your exclusive manager.”
