Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital, Southern Card Creationist Association, Auction House

After verifying the two sets of random ingredients prepared for the challengers by the Southern Card Creationist Association, the referee found no signs of malpractice and then nodded toward the announcer stating his findings. 

“Folks, the referee has concluded that both the sets of random ingredients have no problem. Now, I would like a volunteer from the audience to come up to the stage and validate it,” saying that the announcer chose a random card emperor from the audience and asked him to introduce himself to the audience.

“Hi, I am Mark Johnson, a merchant from the Nothern region,” Mark Johnson introduced himself to the crowd before checking the two sets of random ingredients provided to the challengers. And then report, “The ingredients are not tempered with.” 

As the host of the challenge, the auction house made sure to leave no room for doubts when it came to the fairness of the challenge. As this challenge was not just about the reputation of the Southern Card creationist Association but the entire Southern Region so no mistakes or doubts could be tolerated. They had the responsibility to make ensure the fairness of the challenge to the audience and the viewers. There they did not mind adding a few tedious procedures. 

“Folks, now that the ingredients provided to both the challengers have been verified let us begin with the challenge. Challengers, get to your card creation stations,” the announcer signaled the contenders to take their position then asked, “Ready?” 

In response both, the contenders nodded signaling their preparedness to the announcer who then commenced the challenge, “Start!”

Chris immediately summoned his golden grimoire and opening the card creation page he threw in the three random ingredients provided to him for the challenge. Then from the corner of his eyes, he looked at the Silver Milk Fraudster to find that he had spaced out while seriously staring at the ingredients. Seeing the stupid look on the fraudster, a unconscious sneer formed on his face as he wondered, ‘Did I overestimate him?’

Shaking his Chris decided to focus on his card creation process and go all in because he had a feeling that the Southern emperor, wouldn’t send the fraudster to accept his challenge just to make a mockery of him, herself, and the Southern region. The same thoughts were running through the minds of the audience. 

By now many of the audience and viewers have done their own quick network search on the representative of the South accepting the challenge of Chris Ainsworth the Western card creationist talent. Apart from all the news about his scam of the year, they all came across his online card boutique store where they got glimpses into the various cards created by the boy and the reviews of his customers. They were all impressed by the young card creationist’s accomplishments. They finally began to understand that the boy was not just all talk but had the silks to back them. 

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm This was especially true for the influencers who were investigating the boy in the name of quality content. People started to see why the Silver Milk Fraudster was sent in as the representative of the South for the challenge. And the Southern citizens finally found a little faith that the boy could win the challenge. 

Bloody Veins, Nyon Rope, and Common Core were the random mortal-grade ingredients provided for the challenge by the southern card creationist association. Creating a good card with these ingredients was not a problem however creating a card using these ingredients that could beat whatever card Chris Chase creates was. 

The mortal ingredients did not leave much room for innovation. There were only finite possible ways a regular card creationist could use these cards. And my ego did not allow me to create a generic card with these mortal-grade ingredients, especially with a large audience. 

I wanted to win the challenge by a landslide, anything short of that would not satisfy me because I did not want the audience to leave here with even a shred of doubt about my win in their hearts. However, considering the limited pool of traits and skills of the two mortal-grade ingredients Bloody Veins and Nyon Rope there was only a limited number of combinations one could use these traits and skills to create a card. 

Thankfully, I was not some regular card creationist. The moment the set of random ingredients was made known, I had already used Hive AI to learn all the Traits and Skills of the Bloody Veins and Nyon Rope mortal-grade ingredients. That I cross-checked using my soul pupils to read their soul pathways and arrangements, to find some interesting discrepancies. 

Interestingly not all traits of the Bloody Veins and Nyon Rope were recorded in the database of the card creationist association or the array formation association. Not because they could not find all the traits of these ingredients but because they felt that these traits were insignificant and also because they could explain why these traits existed in these ingredients. 

Nyon Rope was a man-made rope created using the dried fibers from the bark of a monster tree species. This was known to regular card creationists but they forget to consider that the fibers from the bark of any monster tree species can be used to create a Nyon Rope. 

Based on the grade of the monster tree whose bark’s fiber has been used to create the Nyon Rope the grade of the Nyon rope will vary. And the Nyon Rope provided the challenge was created using a common-grade tree monster, however, it seems to have been created by a rookie who did not know what he was doing so its grade had fallen to mortal grade despite being created using the dried fibers from the bark of a common-grade monster tree. 

Considering that Chris was no ordinary Card Creationist I he too should have noticed this by now.
