Chapter 99: Card Master Festival

"Yes, very good," Karoso did not argue.

Just at that moment, 『』 walked into the classroom with textbooks in hand.

When 『』 saw Karoso, she was surprised, clearly not expecting Karoso to return to class so soon.

"Alright, it’s rare that everyone is here today." 『』 walked to the platform and said to everyone, "Do you all know what day it is tomorrow?"

"Card Master Festival!" Ailina eagerly raised her hand to speak.

"That’s right, tomorrow is the Card Master Festival, a grand event for all Card Makers." 『』 looked around at everyone, "All Card Makers can enjoy tax exemption by setting up stalls to sell cards tomorrow."

Before, it was mentioned that tomorrow is the day when the Card God became divine. To commemorate the Card God who changed the rules of the whole world, countries and major religions have added this holiday.

The Alchemist Union will launch the Communication Snail tomorrow to celebrate this prosperous era, as good news for countless adventurers.

Tomorrow, buying cards at the shops under the Alchemist Union can also enjoy discounts.

Surely, this is a rare grand event.

"Moreover, all Card Makers can take a day off tomorrow, including me, the teacher." 『』’s face showed a smile, "Some students may not know, I need to repeat the special features of the Card Master Festival."

"All card sales must be made by the Card Maker personally, to enjoy tax exemption. Of course, you can hire someone to help."

"Come, let me show you where you can set up stalls in the royal capital and academy."

『』 drew a map on the blackboard with bare hands.

It can be said that drawing maps is a required course for every Card Maker.

All skilled Card Makers are talented artists.

The reason why Card Makers are considered top talents is because it is so rare and requires a wide range of skills to master.

That’s why S-class Card Makers are even more rare.

Before long, 『』 marked out the spots for setting up stalls.

"If any student has difficulty understanding or doesn’t want to bother, they can apply to the school. Not every senior student can become a Card Maker, most will remain as card maker assistants. They have more experience with this festival."

"By collaborating with them, although it costs some of your salary, they can help everyone."

"The card maker assistant has always been the best helper for Card Makers. Choosing the right card maker assistant is also crucial for Card Makers."

"If this collaboration goes well, it can lead to good partnerships in the future."

"Alright, does anyone have any other questions?"

"Teacher." Ailina raised her hand. "Are only these locations okay?"

"Yes, there are designated spots in each city, you cannot set up stalls everywhere," 『』 pointed out. "If it’s a shop, you need to inform the Industrial and Commercial Bureau in advance."

"Got it!" Ailina nodded.

"We can discuss the relevant matters after class. Now, please open your textbooks. Today, we will be learning about botany."

……

After the lesson, Ailina tugged at Karoso excitedly. "Karoso, let’s set up a stall at school. It seems like a lot of fun! I have made many cards before, and I am sure I can sell a lot for money."

"Setting up a stall at school is a good idea," Karoso agreed.

At this institute, most students are either wealthy or well-off, and the members of the exchange group are still around.

And who has the strongest purchasing power? Of course, it’s the students.

Parents spare no effort in investing in their children.

Even though ancient Western systems may not be like this, ultimately this is a game created by the Chinese. Many plots and national conditions carry Chinese elements, which can make players feel more immersed.

[Master Karoso, don’t set up a stall at school. There won’t be any plot development for your academy’s stall this year.]

[Yes, if conditions allow, go to the capital. There are special plotlines that can be triggered there!]

[I found relevant information. Alita appears here at Merlin’s place, where Merlin meets Alita and she goes to the capital to participate in the Card Master Festival in the same year.]

[Null and 『』will also go to the capital, where there will be an especially exciting card battle. In theory, Alita should also be there.]

[This battle makes Null and 『』 become the most famous people.]

[Don’t you lack a Professional Mark? When both of them are promoted to eighth-tier, go challenge the Professional Mark together, and you’ll achieve twice the result with half the effort.]

[Then let Alita challenge the Professional Mark for you when the time comes.]

[Apart from this event, there will be another interesting thing happening. Boss Luo’s daughter will be buying a card in the capital city, and interacting with her can trigger his exclusive next storyline.]

[Boss Luo is a world-famous arms dealer, it’s definitely a good thing to know him.]

"Then let’s set up a stall at the school, and then we can…"

Ailina seemed to have planned it in advance, she kept talking nonstop, planning everything out.

"Brother Karoso, how about it?" Ailina looked at Karoso expectantly.

"Arms dealer, named Luo?" Karoso seemed puzzled, why don’t I know an arms dealer named Luo?

"An arms dealer named Luo? What does that mean?" Ailina seemed confused.

They were discussing setting up a stall at the school with Karoso, how did arms dealing come into play?

Um…

Seems like there’s no problem?

Cards can be considered as weapons, but not all soldiers can use them.

You must tap into the source of magic and become a first-tier professional to use the cards.

It can be said that cards are high-end weapons.

Canglang Province and Presea Empire are called barbaric by other countries because they don’t use cards much and their card-making culture is not developed enough, focusing more on heavy industry.

So, when the future Karoso leads with giant ships and cannons for conquest, the Kingdom of Persia realizes that times have changed.

How many Professionals do you have, while I have planes and tanks?

Of course, top Professionals are still strong, but the future Karoso can single-handedly defeat an army. Some top Professionals are just a joke compared to Karoso…

And so, whether it’s individual bravery or armies, the future Karoso catches the Kingdom of Persia off guard.

Karoso’s journey to revenge and godhood was also the spark for a world war.

[Pfft, you’re wrong, it’s not Russell, it’s Hekmatyar!]

[Yes, Russell Hekmatyar!]

Karoso was speechless, as soon as he heard this name.

He wondered where this businessman with the last name Russell came from.

It turned out that Russell was a tycoon in shipping and arms dealing that his father wanted to connect with.

"It’s nothing, when you mentioned it earlier, I suddenly remembered someone," Karoso said. "Sorry, Ailina, I can’t set up a stall at school with you, I’m all prepared to go set up a stall in the royal capital. This time I plan to do a market survey and in the future open a card shop in the royal capital, selling cards I’ve made and invented."

"This time setting up a stall, I’ve been preparing for a long time."

At least five minutes ago he started getting ready.
