Chapter 25 - Card's Miraculous

Mark sneaks outside the FAMAS shelter to test the sword. Mark goes to a tree a short distance away from the FAMAS shelter and calls for his sword. In fact, ever since the Plasma Sanctuary was upgraded, its plants had become very tough. Plasma Souls of the class below the Distorted class could only scratch it. Mark makes a strong strike on that tree with that sword, due to which that tree is cut in half. Mark was very happy because a spear can only give a small wound but a sword is known to give a big wound. Mark then teleports back to the Alliance. Mark arrives at his home and open the mysterious book so that he can learn the "Healing and Healer" Hyper Geno Art. Mark reads that art a little bit that he gets a big shock. Last time Mark read a few lines from the very beginning of this art, from which he came to know that it could be learned only after learning "Blood Power". After reading it further, it is known that "Healing and Healer" cannot be learned until the Geno lock of "Blood Power" is opened. Mark could not do anything even if he wanted to because it was very difficult to open the Geno Lock of any Geno Art. So far no one has been able to open the Geno lock. The Elders also lost their Geno Lock after the upgrade to Sanctuary. Mark looks to study the fifth Hyper Geno Art, but then his attention is drawn to the Art named "Card's Miraculous". Mark reads that art for a while and a big smile comes on his face. According to that art, cards are a very powerful weapon. Cards are such a weapon with which we can give damage to creatures of any level. Mark could not believe that a normal card can harm anyone. Mark reads a little further. After that he learns that when he becomes "Celestial Being" then he can use any element with these cards. Further he comes to know that to learn this art we have to use normal playing cards otherwise this art will be useless. Mark then goes on to read what was about how to throw the cards. Mark reads it completely but does not understand the last line which was "If you will apply less power then you will deal more damage". Mark leaves it and rejoices that if he learns this art, he may be able to kill another Holy Creature. Mark goes to buy cards to practice that art. After buying the cards, Mark goes to a blacksmith about whom Mr. Robinson told when Mark asked that he had to get something secretly made. Mark reaches the blacksmith and gives him the shell of the Holy Bug and asks what you can make of it. That blacksmith looks at that shell and says that it is too small so that I can make only a knife out of it. That's why Mark thinks that it is better to become something than to become nothing. The blacksmith asks whether the entire element is to be made or the knife is to be made of alloy. Mark says that no, I want the weapon of this element only. Mark knew that with the help of technology here, any tough element could be melted and no one could doubt that it was the shell of an upper class creature. That blacksmith says that you can take it after three days. Mark then comes to his house and starts practicing throwing cards. Even after many efforts of Mark, there was not even a scratch on that titanium block. Mark practices it for two days but there was no progress. Mark then remembers the last line. "If you will apply less power then you will deal more damage". Mark starts throwing the cards using very little force. After a few hours, Mark finally manages to get a scratch on the block of titanium. Mark continues his practice and finally, after two day, he manages to penetrate the titanium block to an inch. After that Mark goes to rest after eating because he was practicing continuously for the last few days. Mark wanted to relax his body before the Global Divinity bout. In the evening he remembers that he has to take a knife from that blacksmith. Mark goes to that blacksmith and receives that knife. That blacksmith says that due to the scarcity of elements, he had to make the handle of that knife by titanium. Mark says okay and reaches his home with that knife. Only one day was left for the Global Divinity Bout to begin. Mark practices the "Card's Miraculous" Hyper geno art for a few hours and then logs on to the "Dear Date" website. Upon logging in, Mark learns that the hot topic of the entire website is the Global Divinity Bout. Trade and Jonathan Straut were the top trending at this time because both are taking part in Global Divinity bout. Even before Mark logs out, another post appears that the first battle is between Trade and Jonathan Straut. When Mark came to know that his first battle was with Jonathan Straut, he felt sad because one human will be eliminated in first round and it's not good for humanity. The post is flooded with comments and Mark reads some of the comments and learns that almost everyone is with Jonathan Straut. Mark logs out of that website and goes to the virtual training machine. Mark had heard that virtual training machines are a wonderful place to test and practice new skills. Mark wanted one last practice of his new Hyper Geno Art "Cards Miraculous" before the Global Divinity Bout will have started. Mark reaches the place where there were many virtual training machines and many people were practicing on it. Mark chooses one of them and goes inside it. Mark came here for the first time so he is asked to make a ID. Mark creates a ID and enters it by typing username Trade. Mark is surprised by the machine's feedback.
