Having mapped out the plan for the creation of a card using the space collapse ability, I took the core containing the soul pathway of the space collapse ability extracted from the B-rank deep sea murex monster, But just as I was about to move the soul pathways of the ability to an A-rank core and rearrange it according to the viltronian soul pathway to induce a mutation, my grimoire rang with a call, it was my new calamity daughter gem Roy Blanc.
Since he called this early in the morning it must be important so I decided to answer it putting the card creation on hold. If it was some other calamity daughter gem I would not have cared but it was the one I had assigned to do a mission in the circle. So I had to give it a priority.
"This better be important," I answered the call with an irritated voice. I was annoyed since I was in the middle of card creation.
"Boss, I am sorry for disturbing you but it is indeed very urgent," Roy answered hurriedly.
"Get to the point," I said as Roy continued to apologize.
"Boss, I found out why the card apprentice from the yin-yang harmony sect is holed up in his room. He is trying to break through to the card overlord realm," Roy immediately answered the reason for his call.
"Um…" This was indeed urgent if the card apprentice from the yin harmony sect were to break through to the card overlord realm then my Calamity Daugther Gem cannot be used to control him. This meant my plan of using him during the fight with the circle sun blossom branch was not possible.
"Earlier you said he has been hole up in the room since he arrived at the circle, why is it taking him so long to break through to the overlord realm?" I asked Roy not knowing the requirements to break through to the card overlord realm.
"Boss, I asked around and it seems that it has something to do with the physique and traits of a card apprentice-" Before Roy could finish his explanation he was interrupted by his boss who upon hearing physique and traits immediately asked, " The card apprentice from the Yin-Yang harmony sect has a physique or a trait."
If the card apprentice from the Yin-Yang harmony sect had a physique or a trait then I had to add him to my calamity daughter gem collection. As he would be the most capable calamity daughter gem I had so far, as he was array master, card creationist, had an ego gem, and had comprehended the silent rule. Since he was array master I would not be wrong to assume he was a card creationist. As expected of a disciple of a secret sect, he was very capable and multi-talented without a physique or a trait.
"I don't know about that but I heard that there is a way for a card apprentice to awaken or acquire a supernatural physique or trait or both while breaking through to card over lord realm," Roy answered
"What? A card lord can awaken or acquire a supernatural physique or trait or both while breaking through to card over lord realm. Fuck, is that really possible? How?" The information Roy just gave me blew my mind but it helped me understand why Anna said that physique and traits were not such a big deal and many soldiers in the southern watch had them. The card apprentice can acquire or awaken physique and traits in the higher realms, who knew.
"The info should be true. But as to how it is possible my source wasn't willing to talk much about it and said that this was only applicable to the card lords who had formed their ego gem before breaking through to the higher realm. If you require it, then I can ask around, " Roy narrated everything he had learned about acquiring or awakening physique and traits while breaking through to the card overlord realm.
"No need, I will get the information regarding that myself. You focus on the task I have given you. So, is there no other way for you to reach him?" I planned to ask about acquiring or awakening physique and traits while breaking through to the card overlord realm to Anna and Ann. They should have a clear understanding of it and they were a more trustworthy source than Roy's sources.
"No boss, the security surrounding him is very tight and I heard that the token allotted to me does not have the clearance to access the area where he is housed." Roy went on to explain that the token required to enter the desolate prison array had a different level of clearance and his clearance level did not allow him to even roam near the house where the disciple of the Yin-Yang harmony sect was trying to make a breakthrough into card overlord realm.
"There has to be another way, he as to come out some time for his daily necessities and food, right?" I asked Roy. Card apprentices in the card lord realm were still human, they still had mortal vulnerabilities like eating, pooping, and sleeping. So the disciple of the Yin-Yang harmony sect had to leave his room sometime. Recruiting the disciple of the Yin-Yang harmony sect under my control was important as it would make it a lot easier for me to weed out the circle sun blossom city branch.
"No boss, I have thought of that but he never comes out, because he has been assigned a personal maid who brings him food, cleans up after him, and takes care of all his wants. So he doesn't need to come out." Roy replied based on his observation.
"Um, good. Why did you not say this earlier? Sow the calamity daughter gem I gave you into the Yin-Yang harmony sect's disciple's personal maid. She will do what you couldn't."
