Bab 7: 7. Upgrade Point
Since there is nothing left to do here, we packed up our things and went outside. I found out that I recover 1 point of mana ever 30 minutes so right now I have 4 points of mana left in my mana pool as I already used 8 points before to summon the steel armor and sword.

I started to check my own and cards status as we walked toward the shrine entrance, but when we walked past the entrance, unexpectedly we met another player.
Right now I only have Sil and 6 other iron soldiers under my command as I haven't summon the cards from the packs yet so right now my group looks quite weak to others.
All the apprentice cards only have a piece of leather armor and wooden weapons while Sil doesn't look that strong with her quite open battle dress and breathtaking beauty.
"Looks like it's my lucky day to find a weakling like you within 2 days since the game start. Now if you want to keep your life, give me all of your cards and scram. Hmm? No I changed my mind, serve me and give me that silver haired girl to play till this game ends and I will keep you alive." (Random Player)
Although we just met each other, he already considered me as a weakling. I can't blame him though as he has 6 strong looking followers surrounding him.
"Master, if you may, I will take out the trash right away." (Silvanaz)
"Well I don't have any problem with it but first can you tell what grades his followers are" (Jin)
"5 of them are Lead grade cards while the one with the skull staff is a bronze grade card. He himself also wearing bronze artifacts all over his body."(Silvanaz)
"Can you take them all down without killing them? I want that guy to hand all of his cards to me."(Jin)
"A wise choice master. By the way, can you tell this servant what are you going to do with those cards, master?" (Silvanaz)
"I thought about trading them with other clear minded players for Imperian cards. Just as I have cards from other factions, there are players from other factions that have Imperian cards as well." (Jin)
"What a brilliant idea master. I was planning to tell you this after this when you reached level 10 but since you have already think about trading with other players I will tell you about it now. Actually there is a trading option in the shop where players can put up their unwanted cards for sale and buy other cards anonymously, but this function will only open when a player has reached level 10."(Silvanaz)
"In other words you're telling me to level up quickly and use this function rather than risking my own safety by dealing with other players face to face. Well for me to do that, I need to find a way to level up first don't I?" (Jin)
"Don't worry master, you will figure it out right away after we're done taking out the trash there."(Silvanaz)
"Ah right that guy is still here, I had forgotten about him for a second there."(Jin)
I said out aloud to infuriate him even further and my taunt worked really well.
"You dare lowly commoner! Just from your artifacts alone tell me that it was no more than a lowly lead grade cards, and you dare to make fun of me!?" (Random Player)
"You're done?"(Jin)
"Damn you! Kill him now!" (Random Player)
Consumed by his own anger, he ordered all 6 of his followers to attack me but before they even reached half way to my position, Sil already defeated them all in a flash.
With no followers to guard him anymore, Sil immediately took a hold of him and brought him in front of me.
"Any last words?" (jin)
I said while placing my sword on his neck.
"You deceived me! Why are you faking being a commoner? Don't you care about the treaty?!" (Random Player)
" I don't know abut any kind of hell damn treaty you are talking about. What did you said again earlier? Ahh, give me all of your cards right now and I will let you live."(Jin)
Though I acted like I didn't care, actually I glanced at Sil when I heard the word treaty came out from his mouth. Unfortunately Sil shake her head left and right to say that she doesn't have any knowledge about it.
"Are you doing this on purpose?! Don't act like you don't know about the treaty among the noble families and organization, it was created by all of the leaders! We are the future of those families and were prohibited to kill each other at the rookie match! Don't you fear your family leader wrath?! Now release me right away and I will forget about our meeting, also stop acting like a lowly commoner!"(Random Player)
Well I was thinking about ways to make him talk about the treaty but thankful thi idiot just blabber all of it himself, saving me more time to deal with him.
As I don't want to deal with this idiot anymore, I put my sword even deeper at his neck to the point blood starting to spill over a little.
"Wait wait wait!!! Are you serious man?!" (Random Player)
I didn't answer him and keep pushing my sword in his neck slowly.
"Alright! I got it, I will give all my cards to you! Please stop!" (Random Player)
After that he immediately took out a black small pouch from his pants left pocket and gave it to me. Sil already share about a lot of things to me in this past 2 days and fortunately this item is also one of the thing that I know.
This small looking pouch is actually a space bag which is an artifact. It has big space inside so I can store a lot of things there. It is quite convenient as the space bag weight will always remain the same even if I put many heavy things inside.
When I checked the inside, I found a lot of rations and more than 50 cards along side with it.
Most of them are Skulldrow cards, while some of them are from other faction cards. I even found 2 Lead grade Imperian archer cards.
Since I already got what I wanted, I didn't waste any more time and slashed the idiot head off from his body. If you want to know how I can cope with all of this gore things, well let's just say learning karate under a dojo that belonged to one of the biggest underground organization made me earn a lot of unexpected things.
If you ask whether I have killed someone before then the answer is a yes. And for how did that even happen, well many things can happen if you are related with the underworld.
Anyway my focus was not at the loot I just got but at the game system message after I killed a player.
