Chapter 10: I Just Want To Get A N Card!
When Yuei Vu regained his senses, he had been staring at the new batch of card packs in the store for ten minutes.
And the reason why he was able to come back to his senses was because of a line of "Favorability +1" prompts that floated quietly in the corner of his field of vision…
Yuei Vu looked in that direction speechlessly, and sure enough, he saw the expressionless girl Chika. The latter noticed that he hurriedly turned his head away when he turned back and lowered his head to do something.
Then Yuei Vu took a closer look and found that she was concentrating on studying a textbook for teaching supplementary exercises.
Ah, I understand now. After all, she is a high school student, so she can't completely slack off even during the holidays. she still has to make time to study.
Um, wait a minute, did she hold her book upside down…
However, being a gentleman, Yuei Vu just pretended not to see it.
Chika suddenly raised her head: "You, do you want to buy a card?"
Yuei Vu was stunned for a moment.
"Because you've been staring at the card pack over there for a long time." She pointed to the batch of card packs that Yuei Vu had just stared at with a ballpoint pen.
Yuei Vu looked in the direction her pen was pointing. Taking advantage of this momentary gap, Chika quickly put the book that had fallen down in front of her away.
"…Yes, I really want it." Yuei Vu turned his head and shrugged helplessly.
He didn't seem to notice Chika's small movements – at least Chika thought he shouldn't.
Of course, Yuei Vu wanted it. Because he saw a card named "Pot of Greed" from the description of the card box corresponding to that batch of cards.
Pot of Greed (Spell Card) – Draw two cards.
The shortest and simplest effect in the game, but it was almost unreasonable. It has a powerful card-drawing effect that could easily be exchanged for two cards without cost. With this OP card, earning a hand advantage was as easy as eating and drinking water.
...Of course, the duelists in the DM world obviously didn't realize this.
From the card rarity mark on the card box, the pitiful "N" at the back of the Pot of Greed was enough to show that no one took this thing seriously at all.
However, even so, the Pot of Greed in the World Link Online was also the uniqueness of NPCs, and there was no way for players to obtain it. Whether it is through the system card pool or special quests, there was no way to obtain this divine tool, so players could only be jealous of the Pot of Greed every time they fight against the NPC.
Once upon a time, Yuei Vu was also one of the players who were so incompetent and furious that every time he saw an NPC brazenly using the Pot of Greed.
But now it's different!
Now he was also a native resident protected by the rules of the world! He felt that he deserved the power to fill the deck with three Pot of Greed!
but...
"Let's talk about it when I get paid." Yuei Vu said helplessly.
Yes, this was a very real problem, that was, he had no money…
"That's it." Chika tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "Then…I'll lend you a little first, and then pay it back to me when you're paid."
"Ah?" Yuei Vu was stunned, then quickly waved his hand, "Thank you very much, but forget it."
After all, we haven't known each other for a long time, so casually borrowing money from other girls always feels inappropriate.
"It doesn't matter." Chika said with no expression, "Compared to this, it would be bad if the card you wanted was taken away by other customers in advance when the salary was paid, right?"
...It seems to be the same.
Although the Pot of Greed was just an N card, it stood to reason that there should be quite a few cards in the newly purchased card pack… But who could say such a thing?
"Then… well, please lend me a little first."
After all, it's just about preparing to open the N card.
It shouldn't cost much…
...Right?
So Yuei Vu got his wish and got the first pack of cards since he traveled to this world.
"Then I'm going."
Chika placed her arms staggered on the counter, resting her chin on her fair arm, and stretched her neck to watch the scene.
Yuei Vu opened the first card pack and took out five cards.
"Ah." Chika took a fancy to the "Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress #1" in his hand, and said in surprise, "Awesome, you open a rare card on the first try."
Yuei Vu: "…"
Are you kidding me?
This low-attack Normie is a rare card?
(Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress #1, level 4, ATK 1400, DEF 1200, no effect.)
After opening this "rare card", he estimated that he would never use it in his life.
He continued to unpack.
After three packs of useless items in a row, when she saw what Yu Yu had opened in the fifth pack, Chika was surprised again: "Huh? Lightforce Sword? Another rare card… You are lucky."
"…That's right." Yuei Vu's heart was hurt.
Lightforce Sword (Trap Card) – Select 1 card at random from your opponent's hand. Keep it face-down and place it outside of the field. During your opponent's 4th turn, the card is returned to his/her hand in the Standby Phase.
By the tenth package, Chika-chan's eyes changed when she saw him.
"Battle Steer! Another rare card!"
(Battle Steer, level 5, ATK 1800, DEF 1300, no effect.)
Yuei Vu knew that in Chika's eyes now, he might be the kind of super lucky guy who "makes three URs in one shot".
But the question is… who really wants these useless rare cards? What's the use of a tauren?
I just want a Pot of Greed, why is it so difficult?
Chika asked, "Do you want to continue?"
"Of course."
Damn, I must find a way to sell these so-called "rare cards" for money.
After 20 packs of cards, the N card "Pot of Greed" was still nowhere to be found.
However, what comforted him to a certain extent was that he opened a Polymerization, which was a useful card for him.
After 30 packs were drawn, there was still no Pot of Greed.
Yuei Vu started to get caught up in the new batch of cards. He had to see how many packs he had to open before he could see that damn Pot of Greed.
It's just that this bag is all spent on the girl's money, so I feel a little sorry…
However, Chika herself didn't seem to have any opinion, just sat silently on the counter and watched him open pack after pack, repeating tirelessly like a ruthless pack-opening machine…
Finally, at the 50th card pack, the "Pot of Greed" he was thinking about finally showed up.
Looking at the big green pot with yellow teeth and an extremely obscene smile on this emerald green magic card, Yuei Vu suddenly had the urge to burst into tears.
This may be the first time in his life that he felt happier when he drew an N card than the pile of rare cards he had drawn…
Chika leaned over curiously and took a look.
"You just want to get this card?"
"Yes."
Chika expressed puzzled: "But you have drawn so many rare cards just now, why do you have to… this kind of useless stuff?"
Useless stuff?
Hehe, the girl is still young, and at first glance, it seems that she has never experienced society's cruelty and doesn't know the horror of pots.
However, he also knew that the local residents of this world had a completely different understanding of the dueling monster cards from the players, and it was not practical to popularize concepts such as "card advantage" and "draw turbo" to them in such an environment.
Yuei Vu was thinking about how to explain to the girl, but just at this moment, a guest came in.
"Hello, is there anyone?" A blond young man came in, wearing a white T-shirt with blue stripes and a blue long-sleeved jacket.
"I want to ask…Does this shop sell the latest Duel Disk released by Kaiba Corp?"
The two of them in the store came over in unison.
Yuei Vu raised his eyebrows.
Katsuya Jonouchi?
