Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards

Chapter 1068: Chapter 398: Obtaining the 4th S-rank Card

"The inevitable has finally arrived," he couldn’t avoid it.

Looking at the Material Card in his hand, Ree Shil revealed a bitter smile.

[Galaxy Sword Soul]: 100% allows [Nameless Sword Spirit] to obtain S-rank potential.

This was still an S-rank material card specifically designated for a target.

Of course, even if he had a choice, he would have chosen to give it to [Nameless Sword Spirit].

After all, their compatibility was definitely the highest, wasn’t it?

So there was nothing to hesitate about, he directly took out [Nameless Sword Spirit].

He clapped his hands together, and light spilled out from between his palms.

Hum!

The card was made.

He quickly picked up [Nameless Sword Spirit] to take a closer look.

But there was no change, not even in the name or the face of the card.

After a few seconds, the panel popped up.

[S-rank task: "Find Peace"]

[It has been in darkness for far too long]

[To retrieve the Sword Soul and return to completeness is its greatest desire]

[However, the return of the Sword Soul made it realize everything was in vain]

[Even its own Sword Soul has become tattered]

[For Flawless Galaxy, the greatest irony is imperfection]

[Help the Nameless Sword Spirit to be liberated]

[0/1]

[After completing the task, Nameless Sword Spirit will evolve into——]

[Flawless Galaxy]

"Huh?"

After scrolling through the task details, Ree Shil was dumbfounded.

If this had been in a Projection World, then his Sheep God’s hooves might have already trampled over the other party’s face by now.

But unfortunately, this is not the case.

This is the real world, where the Nameless Sword Spirit in front of him is a living, breathing entity. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

He should know; they have been together on and off for several years now.

A genuine traveling companion.

How could he bear to strike!?

So in times like these, all Ree Shil could hope for was the divine intervention of [S-rank Expert] Big Brother.

Hum!

A column of light fell upon him, illuminating his body.

Then he closed the panel and reopened it to check again.

"Uh."

The task information hadn’t changed at all.

When he thought about it, that made sense.

This task didn’t seem to have a way to lower the difficulty; it couldn’t be changed to let him coax the Nameless Sword Spirit to sleep once, right?

Or, perhaps, [S-rank Expert] didn’t take effect this time.

After all, its difficulty reduction was randomly varied.

It’s not said that the extent has to be significant every time; maybe this time, it was almost negligible.

The Nameless Sword Spirit, who had just absorbed the Sword Soul, was sitting cross-legged on the ground with closed eyes, and after a period of brewing or digesting, he slowly opened his eyes.

Ree Shil could sense a slight change in the figure’s eyes.

If before there was a slight distance from the secular world, now the eyes held a bit more of humanity.

The two looked at each other, and the Nameless Sword Spirit spoke.

"Do you want to go for a drive?"

Ree Shil raised his hand to interrupt and added, "You take the steering wheel."

This was the most comforting method he could think of for the moment.

The Nameless Sword Spirit looked at him for two seconds and then smiled, "Okay."

Thus, man and spirit got into the vehicle, and they set off.

The Water Sprinkler Truck traveled smoothly, with Ree Shil leaning his elbow on the window, looking outside and remaining silent.

After a while, the Nameless Sword Spirit spoke again.

"Um..."

"That... I know where your master is."

Ree Shil just had his explanation ready.

So he laid out the whole affair.

"So he...has become one of the Celestial Visitors."

The Nameless Sword Spirit still couldn’t remember the name; in fact, the figure of the other party was completely vague.

To Ree Shil’s words, he showed no surprise.

Because from the figure’s usual speech and behavior, as well as the recent search for the Sword Soul, he had some guesses.

All these years, the actions of Ree Shil were accompanied throughout.

Despite being a Celestial Visitor, why did he have knowledge of so many things in this world?

Especially the maze where the Sword Soul was located, secretive and full of mystery.

Yet Ree Shil navigated the entire way without triggering a single mechanism.

If it wasn’t for prior knowledge, he believed it would have been next to impossible.

"Sorry, from a certain perspective, I’ve been using you all along."

"No such thing."

To this, the Nameless Sword Spirit was very nonchalant.

Did he resent Ree Shil?

Resent him for concealing the truth and using him for gain?

Not at all.

Judging by actions, not intentions, the other had been helping him all along—that was an undeniable fact.

Did he resent the Sheep God?

Resent that the other did not come to find him?

Not that either.

In fact, the emotion of resentment was cleansed away during the card game within the sword.

Seeing this attitude from the other, Ree Shil suddenly felt a burden lifted from his shoulders.

"Ahem."

So he cleared his throat, his gaze sharp, "So, are you ready?"

"Hmm? Ready for what?"

...

Half a day later, Ree Shil’s figure reappeared in his own room.

"Sigh..."

He let out a weary sigh.

After this Instance ended, there was a card drawing task as well.

But this time, the card drawing was probably the most distracted he had ever been.

Because of this distraction, it took even more time.

After all, drawing cards is important.

Thinking it over, he immediately took out his mobile phone from the drawer.

There were more than a dozen different missed calls from unknown numbers on it.

In this place, there’s no such thing as telemarketing calls.

So he chose the most recent number and dialed back.

"Hello, who was calling just now?"

"Yes, it was me."

"Really? Good... Hey, you young lad are quite quick to embrace new things."

"What master? I do not wish to be your master."

"Wake up, there’s none of that stuff you have here."
