Location Sky Blossom City, Fine Gold Sky Blossom Branch, Fine Gold Tower 1, Card Lab
Since Fine Gold was my client it was decided that it would be better if I used the Card lab in Fine Gold Tower.
Having rich client’s has its perks, I was escorted to Fine Gold Tower in a luxurious car and received like a VIP.
A nobody high schooler like me was not worthy of this treatment but still was treated with utmost respect and care because of Cindy the Managing Director who accompanied me.
It seems for some reason Cindy cared about my ability in card creation a lot as she acted as my host in Fine Gold. Even though any other staff should be more than efficient to receive me.

Within 30 minutes the employee’s of Fine Gold brought all the ingredients mentioned in the list but the total cost did not reach 100 million $ as I expected it to.
That’s because of two reasons firstly the ingredients are priced at discount prices and secondly the Gemini card and Para Share cards seem to be issued by the company.
Since Debra is a Fine Gold employee she gets a 10% discount on every Fine Gold purchase, leading to discounted prices of the ingredients.
Gemini and Para Share cards are Cards that help party members share their mental strength, they are basic cards used by card creators to help them use their party members as mental health banks.
It is not a surprise for a company like Fine Gold to have Gemini and Para Share cards as they employ a large number of contracted Card creators.
“Anything else? ” Cindy asked.
“Um…I require one more C- rank Skeleton Knight and War Horse cores.”
“Okay!” said Cindy nonchalantly.
But Debra gave me a doubtful glance, ‘I swear I am not trying to cross the 100 million mark.’
Another 5 minutes and the employees brought the two cores. And now the total cost reached 108,025,000$ meeting my estimated cost.
“Then shall we get started!” Debra said hurriedly, it seems she has completely given up hope on an origin card and wants to get it over with quickly.
“Not yet miss, the card creation will take at least half a day to create. I would like to have dinner before we start, you should do the same as we will be inside the card lab for a long time.”
“He is right, I will arrange for dinner. make yourself comfortable.” Supported Cindy as she left the Card lab.
“Wyatt you are in over your head, Fine Gold is like a Hornet nest, it is peaceful to watch but if you poke at it, it will sting you to death.” Warned Debra.
“Are you worried about me or worried that I will fail and it would cost you your precious fate ingredient?”
“Both, since you are a friend of Susan I believe you are a decent guy and not someone who will play with your own life.
Fine Gold is not somebody you should mess with, if you fail they will find a way for you to cough up the 100 million they wasted on you.”
“What about you then?”
“Me? I am a Fine Gold employee as long as I am hardworking, loyal and never betray them I will be fine, maybe even promoted in rank.”
“Don’t worry, I will be fine too since I won’t fail.”
Having a light dinner, I and Debra head into the card lab.
Forming a party with Debra, I equip the Gemini card and Para Share unequipping the rest of the cards in my grimoire. Since I am the only one with a Silver Grimoire of the two of us and can equip C & D cards within my soul power.

Card Rank: C-rank, uncommon grade
Card Ratings : [19]stars
Card Durability : [82/82]
Card effect: user can form a mental connection with a party member. Additional effect – Share mental strength with the said party member.]
There is a myth that twins have a subconscious connection to each other. Gemini Cards function is similar to that it allows two party members to have a mental connection and share their mental strength.
Thanks to this card I do not have to worry about running out of mental strength during the card creation process as I will have a mental strength bank, Debra.
[Card Name: Para Share
Card Type: Skill Card (active)
Card Rank: D rank, uncommon grade
Card Ratings : [14]stars
Card Durability : [87/87]
Card effect: the user can share a single stats parameter with a party member (active) Addition effect – increased mental health(passive).]
Since I am creating cards of higher soul power requirement than my current soul power, the Para Share card is the most important one as with this I will be able to borrow Debra’s Intelligence stats and add them to my stats. Making up for my lack of soul power.
The only drawback of this card is Debra won’t be able to use the stats I borrowed from her, therefore this card is not used in combat by the card apprentice.
Having solved the issue of mental strength and soul power, now I could focus on the Origin card creation.
