The night sky.

With a book in his hand, a black-clothed man was flying in a determined direction.

The book was opened in front of him.

One of the cards gave off an invisible presence that surrounded him.

This card was bringing him along with its flight.

Only after reaching its target would the card’s power disappear.

And so, for now, the black-clothed man didn’t have to do anything at all. He only needed to rest and prepare himself for the moment when he finally catches up and does his job.

With nothing to do, the black-clothed man checked the various other cards in the book.

He quickly had an expression of admiration.

——because all of his Teacher’s cards inside this book were specifically chosen for the sake of restraining that unique card.

Simply reading the card descriptions and how they were arranged in this book was beneficial to him.

When will I be able to reach Teacher’s level?

———perhaps not too long, after all, I’m the most excellent among my peers in this generation.

Even Teacher had to admit my exceptional talent as a card user.

The black-clothed man sighed and imagined the day that would become a reality.

At this point, the night sky had stagnated as the wind no longer blew.

Within the card book, the tracking card shined brightly.

This signifies that I’m about to catch up.

The black-clothed man prepared himself for battle.

A second later, he landed.

Boom!

Sand and rocks scattered everywhere.

Gu Qing Shan and the girl stopped.

Within the cloud of sand, a black-clothed man could be seen.

Even though it was incredibly delayed, he still made it here.

And since he knew that the other party had the ability to track them, Gu Qing Shan wasn’t foolish enough to use all of his spirit energy for escaping.

If he did, the two of them would eventually be caught up, but Gu Qing Shan wouldn’t have the power to counter-attack.

Gu Qing Shan readied himself.

He took out the Night Rain and put a quiver of arrows on his back.

“Is that him?” Gu Qing Shan asked in a low voice.

“No, that’s his disciple” the girl quickly answered.

She was currently holding the [Blood Sea God Army] card, a blood-colored light slowly drifting around her body.

——-she was trying to communicate with the Blood Sea, hoping to erase her previous status and become a card that belonged to the Blood Sea deck.

Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan became less tense.

He could tell, the other party wasn’t powerful to the point where he couldn’t defeat him.

But his opponent was still a true card user.

A natural powerful Profession.

“It’s no good! I can’t beat a card user, I can only buy you some time, run!”

Gu Qing Shan shouted.

“You—— don’t have to do such——–” the girl bit her lip.

Why is this person so kind? He and I don’t know each other at all, but he’s willing to use himself as a decoy for me.

With tears in her eyes, she quickly ran away.

Gu Qing Shan stood between them and immediately attacked.

He immediately started off with Shifting Flurry!

Like blurred shadows in the darkness, arrows drew unpredictable arcs as they were shot out.

Seeing that, the man scoffed.

“An archer? Decent archery skills you have there, but such a low-ranked Profession won’t be able to win against me”

A card appeared in his hand.

Depicted on the card were several shields glowing in different colors that were constantly changing places.

Until finally, a blue shield appeared in the middle of the card.

The card vanished and instantly turned into a spherical barrier.

[Ranged attack barrier, this barrier will quintuple your defenses against ranged attacks, but lower your defenses against magical and melee attacks accordingly]

As soon as the barrier manifested, Gu Qing Shan’s arrows reached him.

Pock pock pock pock!

The arrows hit their marks, but none of them managed to pierce through the barrier.

“Pitiful archer, unless you are at least three times more powerful than I am, none of your attacks will even reach me”

The black-clothed man crossed his arms and pretended to sigh regretfully.

His archery skills are certainly very decent.

Unfortunately, that level of archery is completely insignificant in the face of a card user.

This was a simple natural difference in quality between Professions.

Unless he can advance from this basic Profession of ‘archer’ into a higher-ranked Profession that has more unique ranged attacks, the result of this battle is already decided.

The black-clothed man drew another card.

Enough theatrics, I need to catch that card quickly and report back to Teacher.

While thinking that, he noticed that the archer just dropped his bow.

“I surrender” the archer screamed out in despair.

The black-clothed man froze.

Tch, so not only is his Profession shitty, even the person is shitty.

If that’s the case, I can actually enjoy myself by torturing him to death.

After he completely disarms himself and kneels down begging for forgiveness, I’ll kill him.

His expression of despair and fury at that time would definitely feel exhilarating.

As for that unique card on the run——–

The black-clothed man glanced at the book of cards in his hand.

This was Teacher’s book, all the spell cards used to restrain that unique card are in here.

She won’t be able to get away.

After thinking everything through, the black-clothed man quickly made his decision.

He slowly spoke: “Surrender? A wise choice, but first, throw the quiver behind your back down as well, quickly!”

“Yes”

The archer quickly took off his quiver and tossed it to the ground.

His direct and decisive actions made the black-clothed man feel even more contempt.

But this was natural, as he never had a chance to win against me in the first place.

The black-clothed man glanced at the bow and the quiver in the sand and relaxed a bit more.

“Now, kneel”

While ordering that, he was staring at him, waiting to see his expression of despair and humiliation.

Of course, to prevent the reckless lashing out of a cornered rat, he maintained a card in his hand, preparing to use it at a moment’s notice.

The archer hesitated for a bit before puffing out his chest and mustered all his courage to shout: “A soldier can be killed but not humiliated!”

Then he turned and ran.

——as a long-ranged attacker, his Profession required him to be swift, so his running speed was indeed fast.

But what use is that?

The black-clothed man chuckled.

He put away the defensive card he prepared before and then he randomly drew a movement card and threw it out.

The card was activated.

The black-clothed man vanished and suddenly reappeared in front of the archer, perfectly blocking his path.

The archer was shocked.

As he was dashing for his life, he couldn’t possibly stop in time, rolling several times on the ground before struggling to regain his balance.

Not a bit more, not a bit less, he happened to stop perfectly at a distance of 10 feet from the black-clothed man.

“Is this what a card user is capable of?” the archer muttered at a loss.

The black-clothed man gracefully twirled a card in his hand and slowly replied: “Of course, for a card user, instantaneous movement within a short distance is nothing but child’s play, not at all a struggle like yourself”

He sighed: “Pitiful archer, choose, do you want to die, or kneel”

The archer also sighed.

His expression of shock and despair disappeared completely as he coldly spoke: “You are too arrogant. In truth, both arrogance and prejudice are nothing but danger to yourself in a fight”

Hearing that, the black-clothed man had a bad feeling.

——but there’s no one else around here, both his bow and arrow were already thrown away, what sort of danger could there be?

Trusting his instinct, the black-clothed man wanted to draw a few more cards.

But he realized a horrifying truth.

——-he was unable to draw any card, he wasn’t even able to move his hand.

This seemed to be some sort of restraining power.

But where is the enemy?

Damn it, I still have almost a hundred cards, countless abilities, and powers that I still haven’t shown.

If I were to fight at full power, this world itself would be shaken!

Who restrained me!

With deep confusion and unwillingness, the black-clothed man’s world turned to darkness.

During his final moments, he seemed to have seen the archer holding a sword and swung at him from afar.

Sha——–

His blood spilled everywhere, but quickly got scattered by the violent sword-infused wind that followed.

The body wasn’t able to handle the power of the sword phantom either, as it was finely diced and chopped up.

The spherical barrier was extremely potent in defending against ranged attacks, but it failed to even slow the sword down.

—–in fact, according to the rules of the card, this attack was actually considered a melee attack.

Secret Art, [Life Seeker].

Within 10 feet, I seek out your life and extinguish it!

Gu Qing Shan ignored the corpse.

Because a person who approached a battle with a sense of superiority and arrogance wasn’t worthy of further attention.

He simply looked at the void of space in front of himself.

On the War God UI, the number that represented his total Soul Points value was increasing at a rapid rate.
