Chapter 176: Scrape Metal
Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild Association Mall, Warehouse no.234
“Susan, are there any cooking related occupational cards in the association guild mall?” I did not know how to create an occupational skill card but I had read that it is the easiest and most cheap card to create for a Card creationist not to mention it would fetch 100 times the profit when sold. Once again I had to attend the University to learn more about creating occupational cards.
Occupational cards earned large profits despite their low creation cost because the occupational cards did not require many ingredients. Their key ingredient was the occupational skill itself, the card creationist should have that particular occupational skill to create that skill card by imbuing it with his knowledge and experience. As to how they achieved this I was clueless.
“One minute…” Susan soon checked her grimoire and answered, “There are currently zero cooking-related occupational skill cards in Sky blossom city mall but there are three in the nearby city. If you want to, I can arrange for them to be sent over.”
“Sure, why not.” Occupational Skill cards are mostly sought by card apprentices who do not dare to become an adventurer and are not talented enough to attend college or the retiring adventurers. So these cards tend to disappear as soon as they appear in the market.
“E-rank Cooking Skill Card: Baking Mastery – Proficient level – $800,000
E-rank Cooking Skill Card: Roasting Mastery – Proficient level – $350,000
E-rank Cooking Skill Card: Grilling Mastery – Proficient level – $400,000
E-rank Cooking Skill Card: Pizza Mastery – Proficient level – $1,100,000
These four are the cards present in the association guild malls of the nearby cities. Which one would you like?” Susan stated the cards along with their price.
“What! They are so costly? If I had that much money why would I choose to work in the first place?” Spoken like a true bum. I started rethinking about buying this bum an occupational card, he may sell it as it was easier to make money that way.
“You fool! Shut up and choose one. If I were you I would choose between Baking or Pizza Mastery. Baking has a wide range of recipes meanwhile Pizza’s have a huge demand.” A fool could tell that pizza mastery was best because the best costs the most.
“No way, $800K for a card with that much money I can live like a king in my village.” Yep I could not trust the card with this bum may be gifting the card to Jackie would work she seemed diligent about her work.
“Well if you had a fated ingredient I could create a similar card. Unfortunately, you do not have one.” This I was enthusiastic about because I wanted to create a production-related origin card for a change. Something from a coffee maker to a chocolate factory, my imagination was the limit.
“Actually… I found my fated ingredient, it is not that grand… My fate ingredient is scrap metal.” Ronnie revealed with great embarrassment. Susan was surprised to see the embarrassment on Ronnie’s face after seeing shameless Ronnie earlier.
“You dumbass, you really are stupid! You hid the fact that you found your fated ingredient just because you are ashamed of it.” I yelled at Ronnie, scrap metal forget production cards I can make a mecha for him. With which he can easily become an elite adventurer, “with such a fated ingredient forget occupational cards. I am making you the best combat card ever.”
“No no I do not want a combat card. I do not want to become an adventurer. I can’t go and die in a dungeon leaving my two babies all alone. An occupational card is enough.” Ronnie hurriedly refused my generous offer, well his loss. Though Ronnie is dumb I can see he does care about Jackie and his unborn baby.
“Okay, then I will create something similar to an occupational card. Well, bring out the fated ingredient. I got to see what I have to work with.” I had already decided on what to create, it was a little hasty of me to plan before seeing the fated ingredient but I was just too excited there were so many options to choose from. Not every day will I meet someone willing to waste their fated ingredient for the creation of an occupational-related card instead of a combat-related card.
“It is in my luggage. I will get it right away.” Ronnie hurriedly headed to his luggage to fetch his fated ingredient.
“Susan, give me 40 kg of liquid spirit gold.” I searched for liquid spirit gold last night in the warehouse inventory for the alloy replication ability of my hoverbike but I could not find them. Since the Liquid spirit gold is already in card form and expensive I thought Susan should have placed them in her card holder for safekeeping
“Here” Susan summoned her grimoire and handed me 40 kgs of liquid spirit gold.
Taking the liquid spirit gold cards I sacrificed them to the Nanamorpher card. Just as I wanted to summon the hoverbike and check out its new liquid gold body. Corey reported in the warehouse shaper at 8:30. Usually, the bosses come late but in our card boutique, it’s the opposite. But I can not blame Corey for this because I live in the warehouse and Susan arrives an hour early to work, poor thing never stood a chance.
“Good morning Corey.” Susan greeted Corey. Today Corey seemed different. Usually, she used to dress in baggy casual clothes but today she attended work in a black and pink sports bra and track pants. As if she was coming to attend a yoga class or gym, not her work place. It’s ok since we did not have a dress code anyway. Not just Corey’s dress the way she walked, her steps were so arrogant and domineering. Just seeing her advance was awespringing.
“Good Morning Mama.” Greeting Susan, she turned to Ronnie who was drooling as he gazed at her melons, small waist and tightly wrapped thighs. She domineeringly threatened him saying, “Control your eyes, you hormone oozing mongrel.”
*cough*Being threatened by Corey, Ronnie quickly averted his eyes in embarrassment and fear. Yep, he felt fear from someone half his size.
Susan was confused, Mama? Corey called her mama. And Corey seemed to be serious. Susan could not make heads or tales of the current situation.
It looked like Corey but it walked, talked and dressed like somebody else, puzzling. It was as if the person in front of us was not Corey but someone entirely different. This Corey appeared the total opposite of the Corey I came to know in the past few days. The Corey I knew would try hard to hide the scorn and pride in her eyes and work on changing herself but this Corey, her eyes were not scornful or prideful but rather they were what people call fierce and domineering eyes.
