Chapter 36: Shocked Neymar

"Apart from going to the dungeon together, I also want to give you a few cards," Karoso said.

"Cards?" Neymar tilted her head.

Karoso casually took out six cards and handed them to Neymar.

Neymar looked at the six cards, her eyes widening in surprise, "This, this is not magic at all!"

[Name: Freezing Spell]

[Category: Magic Spell]

[Star Level: 0]

[Quality: Gray Common]

[Occupational Restriction: wizard]

[Introduction: Cast a spell to freeze enemies, the spell’s effect is related to the caster’s magical strength]

[Name: Element Partner]

[Category: Magic Spell]

[Star Level: 0]

[Grade: Gray Ordinary]

[Job Limitation: Wizard]

[Introduction: Release elemental spells below fourth-tier, reduce mana consumption by one-fifth]

[Name: Flame Companion]

[Category: Spell]

[Star Level: 0]

[Grade: Gray Ordinary]

[Job Limitation: Wizard]

[Introduction: Release fire spells below fourth-tier, reduce mana consumption by one-fifth]

"Zero-star Card? Why would there be a Zero-star Card," Neymar looked at Karoso, her face filled with disbelief. "Isn’t one-star the lowest for all cards?"

Karoso also didn’t know how to explain. When he made these kinds of cards, he was also completely surprised.

However, these few cards are behind Greedy Hand, even though Karoso was shocked, he didn’t lose his senses completely.

The bullet comment cards are really strange, Karoso thought that most of the cards they made were mind-blowing.

[Wow, it will shock Neymar for the whole year!]

[The Neymar we see is always looking sick and sleepy, but when she gets serious, it seems like she knows everything. This Neymar is cuter in comparison.]

"That’s right, it’s just that my friend broke this limit and created this kind of card," Karoso explained.

"If there are more of these cards… can they counter Pastor’s ‘Thank you’?" Neymar quickly thought of this.

"That’s right," Karoso agreed with a nod.

Previously, 『』 used a Naga deck to block Karoso’s cards, preventing him from using them.

However, 『』 did not expect that the Pastor Card wasn’t Karoso’s ultimate move… Chaos was.

"Also, these cards can be played without needing any mana and they don’t take up deck space. If you want to increase the power of the Freezing Spell, you can also infuse magic into them," Karoso explained earnestly.

It was mentioned before that in this world of card battles, there is no limit to the number of cards in a deck, only a limit on points. In theory, a top-tier expert at the Ninth Level only has ninety points, so they can bring a maximum of ninety first-tier cards.

However, by including these sporadic cards, it means he can bring ninety-six cards, magically adding six extra cards!

If these six cards were stolen by the Pastor… the Pastor doesn’t know elemental spells so using the Element Partner Flame Companion would be useless. If luck isn’t on their side, it’s like wasting four valuable spots.

"Using a Third Level Spell Card to maximize magic use, if reduced by one-fifth, it’s like increasing power by one-fifth without any cost," Neymar murmured. "This is truly a brilliant invention!"

Even though she was Neymar, Karoso didn’t dare fully trust her and didn’t hand over the Greedy Hand to her.

"How about it, feeling more confident now?" said Karoso.

"Um, thank you, big brother," Neymar whispered, "Big brother must have sacrificed a lot for me…"

Karoso really wanted to say he hadn’t sacrificed anything, but the bullet comments kept reminding him crazily, making him stay silent.

Phew, completing tasks for the netizens, must do it well.

"We still have time, before tomorrow morning, I’m going to make a few cards, then we’ll have three hours of meditation, one hour for eating and getting ready," Karoso said, "Are you ready?"

"I’m ready!"

It was the first time Neymar wanted to help Karoso make cards.

"Never reveal the information on these cards," Karoso instructed seriously.

"Um, got it," Neymar nodded vigorously.

Then, Karoso called over the card maker assistant, making them work overtime through the night.

Of course, this extra work for Karoso pays triple the usual wage.

……

The next morning at eight o’clock, Karoso arrived at the classroom looking bright and sat at his own desk.

"Back to normal?" 『』 asked Karoso, "Did Ailina bring you yesterday’s homework?"

"Sorry, I didn’t do it," Karoso stood up, saying it as if it was natural.

"Huh?" 『』 was surprised, "You didn’t do it?"

If it was any other spoiled child, 『』 wouldn’t have cared about the missing homework.

But, Karoso wasn’t like those people!

"I stayed up all night playing cards to conquer the dungeon," Karoso said, "Can I sign up now?"

"Wait a moment," 『』 seemed a bit confused. "You, exploring a dungeon?"

"Yes," Karoso nodded.

"The rules for entering the dungeon are: those who have explored a dungeon of the same level before have priority, followed by those with a combat rating of A-class or higher, and seniors in school have priority. Before entering, you need to sign a document to prove that you are entering the dungeon voluntarily," 『』 explained. "In theory, freshmen are not allowed to explore dungeons, as they have no experience. Those who participate in dungeon exploration are at least second-year students."

"You mentioned it yourself, this is just a theory. I can make an exception."

"Do you need money?" 『』 asked with a frown.

"I don’t need money, but I must participate in this kind of challenge," Karoso said firmly.

"Let me tell you, this is a dungeon that suddenly appears randomly, not a scheduled one. We have no idea what’s inside," 『』 said helplessly. "For some types of third-tier dungeons, even fourth-tier ones may not guarantee your survival! Random means maximum risk! With your abilities, you don’t need to go there at all."

"Teacher, I am stronger than the average third-tier student. If I go, my chances of survival will be higher than theirs."

"Don’t forget, you are a Card Maker, not a warrior," 『』 shook her head. "Which country would send a Card Maker to the battlefield instead of letting them create cards safely at the back?"

This is like giving Einstein a gun and sending him to the battlefield as cannon fodder, even if Einstein is a great fighter, it’s not worth it!

"I know," Karoso said, "but Colloa never fears challenges. Since it’s random, I must strategize even more!"

"Okay, I can count your battle rankings as your entrance test scores. Can you compete with others in anything else?" 『』 crossed her arms and looked down at Karoso.

"I have cleared two first-tier dungeons, five second-tier dungeons, and three third-tier dungeons. My dungeon ratings have always been above B grade."

"First-tier…" 『』 was stunned. "How old were you back then?"

"Eight years old."
