Chapitre 44: A New Discovery

Since getting back from the club, Chen Mu had been very excited. He experienced so very many astonishing and ingenious ideas which expanded his outlook. Before then he hadn't had any exchanges with other card masters. He had always been shut up alone studying by himself, trying things by himself, and muddling along when he failed by himself. Even though he later had that mysterious card, there wasn't ever really any change with his situation.

It was his first taste of the joys of communicating with others.

That first time having come face to face with the ideas of so many card masters kept Chen Mu in a state of excitement. He spent a whole day in the great hall as though he were intoxicated, grasping other peoples' ideas and trying to answer other peoples' questions.

By the end he didn't remember clearly how many questions he had really tried to crack, but what discouraged him was that most of them ended in failure.
