Let them print cards, not slay gods 141

Chapter 141: Freya? What do you want with my mother?

Lin Ke’er is such a good teacher.

Shen Sui sighed inwardly. As a time traveler, he didn’t have many attachments in this world. He didn’t feel much of a sense of belonging to Taili City, his so-called hometown. But because of Lin Ke’er, Shen Sui still remembered this small city. Occasionally going back to visit wouldn’t be bad.

Shen Sui had been thinking about how to repay Lin Ke’er. After all, without her help, while he wouldn’t have starved to death, he certainly wouldn’t have the good life he had now.

After a few minutes of reflection, Shen Sui finally started his day’s work. After passing the ranking tournament, Shen Sui had already completed his tasks for the previous two school years. He didn’t even need to attend any more cultural classes. In a sense, except for nominally still being a student, Shen Sui could now live freely.

Of course, as an ambitious duelist, Shen Sui wouldn’t be so idle. The Modu Duel Tournament was a high-value B-class competition; even some seventh and eighth-rank Card Masters would participate. After all, most professional Card Master competitions only stipulated the minimum rank for participants, never the maximum. If a ninth-rank Card Master was shameless enough, they could even participate in a C-class competition to easily defeat lower-ranked opponents.

However, in reality, most professional players had some self-respect and wouldn’t participate in a C-class competition when they were far above that level. Participating in a B-class competition as a seventh or eighth-rank player was very common. A-class competitions, however, weren’t held every day.

That’s why when Xu Tianzhi won the Guangzhiming Duel Invitational Tournament, the whole of Modu was so excited. Xu Tianzhi was also lucky this time; all the high-rank Card Masters participating in the competition were defeated by a Soul-type player who experienced incredible luck, making unbelievable comebacks. In the final, Xu Tianzhi’s soul power proved superior, leading to a fortunate victory.

So, after deciding to participate in the Modu Duel Tournament, Shen Sui turned his attention back to the Dueling Instrument. As a high-level B-class competition, while it allowed fifth-rank Card Masters to participate, they needed to participate in the preliminary rounds to enter the main competition. There would be a total of three spots in the preliminary rounds.

The Modu Duel Tournament’s preliminary rounds were three days later. Therefore, Shen Sui had about three days to strengthen his deck. The time wasn’t particularly pressing; relying on Alice’s ability, Shen Sui estimated that two days would be enough for Alice to generate a large number of Fate Cards. Combined with Shen Sui’s ability to modify card effects to some extent, the strength of these cards was guaranteed. The only question was whether they would fit into his deck’s build, which was purely a matter of luck.

He turned his gaze back to the Dueling Instrument. Last night, after a fulfilling session, Alice had advanced a considerable distance towards the former City of Sin. She was still tracking the Spirit Crystal Dragon and the elf on its back. When Shen Sui looked at the Dueling Instrument again, Alice had just entered the ruins of the City of Sin.

[Upon setting foot on the land of the City of Sin again, looking at the scorched earth before her, Alice felt a great deal of emotion.]

[Not far from her, a beautiful and elegant dragon slowly landed in front of the former church of the City of Sin.]

[There, Alice, transformed into a rebellious witch, had called upon the followers of sin to launch a rebellious uprising against the great God of Sin.]

[A beautiful elf girl jumped from the back of the Spirit Crystal Dragon.]

[Her eyes swept across Alice in the distance.]

[She wasn’t slow-witted; she knew very well that Alice was looking for her.]

[She had lived in the Elf Forest since she was young and had never been exposed to the outside world.]

[The elders who raised her constantly taught her that there were all sorts of vicious people outside, who coveted the beauty of the elves, using sweet words to deceive the hearts of elf girls, and many elf girls had fallen victim.]

[Especially her mother, who, because she had been too trusting, had fallen in love with someone she shouldn’t have and was cursed to live in sorrow forever.]

[Humans, how annoying.]

[The elf girl shifted her gaze away from Alice, and began to carry out her mission for this journey.]

[“It’s very dangerous here!” Alice finally couldn’t help but walk to the elf girl.]

[The elf girl looked up in surprise; she didn’t expect Alice to be so bold as to approach her.]

[The other girl only had fifth-rank power. Wasn’t she afraid of being killed easily?]

[“Go away,” said the elf girl.]

[“No!” Alice said seriously, “It’s really dangerous here. The Sinful Holy Grail once bloomed here.”]

[“The Sinful Holy Grail?” The elf girl was slightly stunned. She had heard of this name. As one of the seven great sacred artifacts of the Dawn Continent, the Sinful Holy Grail had a fearsome reputation in past eras.]

[“Isn’t this Modena City?” the elf girl questioned suspiciously, “Why would the Sinful Holy Grail be here? You’re deceiving me.”]

[Alice said blankly, “Huh? Modena City was its name a long time ago. Its latest name is the City of Sin.”]

[“The City of Sin?” The elf girl fell into thoughtful contemplation.]

[“Didn’t you do your research before coming?” Alice looked at the girl’s white and beautiful face and couldn’t help but complain, “This is the God of Sin’s divine domain. Even elves should have heard of this information. You don’t know?”]

[The elf girl shook her head blankly and said, “I only know that this is Modena City, the city built by that evil bishop.”]

[“Evil bishop?” Alice raised her eyebrows. She disliked the girl’s description; Claude was never evil.]

[Although he was a scoundrel, he wasn’t evil.]

*Can you please stop constantly thinking about me?*

Shen Sui saw Alice’s thoughts and couldn’t help but complain.

[“I believe you now,” the elf girl looked at Anna, who was following closely behind Alice. She sensed an extremely strong aura of sin from Anna.]

[Anna looked vigilantly at the girl in front of her. This beautiful elf was even more beautiful than Osana.]

[“Can you tell me about what happened here?” The elf girl took out a recording crystal, “This is also one of my tasks this time.”]

[Following her mother’s wishes, she had left the Elf Forest to record the story of the Dusk Bishop.]

[“Humph! Of course, I can,” Alice raised her index finger towards the elf girl, “But we have to make a deal.”]

[Ding! You obtained the Magic Card: Alice’s Deal]

This card popped up so easily!

Shen Sui was about to complain, but he saw their following conversation.

[“What deal?”]

[“Take us to the Elf Forest.”]

[“What are you doing in the Elf Forest?”]

[“I want to find the former Elf Queen, Freya.”]

[The elf girl frowned, scrutinizing Alice, and slowly said:]

[“What do you want with my mother?”]
