Location- Southern Region, Blossom District, Unknown Location

Seeing the humanoid figure descend in front of me, my body froze up, fortunately for me, the humanoid figure was a card apprentice who did not seem to be hostile toward me for now. I am not to be blamed for being caught off guard, having found the escape route, I was giddy and rushed out head first wondering whom to call for help, Anna? Or Diana? I was not expecting a stranger ambus.h.i.+ng.

What was there to be giddy about finding an escape route? The escape route that I am talking about allowed me to pa.s.s through the field dungeon and exit through the other side of the dungeon. If I just wanted to get out of the dungeon I could have just exited it as soon as I entered it. But that would mean I would be stuck on the path to the sky blossom city or could choose to return to the sun blossom city or go around the field dungeon to stay en route. Therefore I was a little taken aback to find the correct route through the dungeon despite the pseudo-natural array formation.

Pseudo-natural array formations were very covert and hard to crack, I cannot stress this point enough. Even for me, with my soul pupils, echo hearing, and Hive AI it took quite a while to figure out that I was going around in a circle. If pseudo-natural array formation were this powerful, just imagining a natural array formation made me excited. As they say, practice makes a man perfect, the more I come in contact with various array formations the better for me. Especially unconventional array formations like this pseudo-natural array formation.

Cracking the pseudo-natural array formation was an achievement worth being proud of but the pride did not last long having been caught in an ambush. Looking past my mistake I was stuck considering how to react to the ambush of the card apprentice. I guess leaning into being startled would do it considering the realm difference between me and the card apprentice. After all, an E-rank Gale Cougar monster would indeed be startled or even scared enough to wet itself as a result of its wild instinct going haywire being ambushed by a Card king.

"Incredible, I didn't expect to meet a card soldier capable of escaping a pseudo-natural array formation down here. Even veteran array masters have a hard time cracking it, I should know since I set it up," the card apprentice addressed the gale cougar monster which had a human-like expression on its face.

"..." Hearing the female card apprentice address me as if she was talking to an actual person I was fl.u.s.tered.

The female card apprentice was in the Card King realm, so it should be impossible for her to see through my transformation when even my soul pupils and semi-demiG.o.ds failed to see through it. Yet this female card apprentice addressed me as if she knew that I was a card soldier morphed gale cougar monster, this could only mean one of two things,

First, she has an incredible card or rune that allowed her to see through Myriad Devil's transformation. This meant that the card or the rune in possession of this woman was more powerful than my soul pupils, now that was just great, another person with a hack card or rune.

Second, she has been monitoring me since the moment I entered the field dungeon, captured a wild gale cougar monster to extract a medium to help transform into a gale cougar monster so that it would allow me to pa.s.s through the field dungeon without attracting the monsters inhabiting the dungeon.

I am much inclined towards the second reason but the first reason was also likely. Well, I am about to find out.

"Let me cut it short, I have been watching you since you entered the first field dungeon. From the direction you are taking I am guessing you are on your way to Sky blossom city, am I right?" The female card king speculated but seeing me continue to act startled and scared monster, she added, "For your information, you have been transpa.s.sing on my property. If I wanted to kill you, I already had enough reason to do so. So, please don't add another reason to it."

Understanding her words loud and clear, I nodded my monster cat head hurriedly. Right now most of my brain was occupied trying to figure out how did I miss the surveillance of the female card apprentice? Was it the pseudo-natural array? No, the pseudo-natural array formation did not have any other function to it than misdirection. Then how was this female card king monitoring me?

"How would like to work for me as my a.s.sistant?" the female card king found the reaction of the card apprentice morphed cat monster adorable but that was not the reason why she wanted to hire him as her a.s.sistant. It was his array mastery, cracking a pseudo-natural array formation in under half an hour that made the boy qualified enough to be her a.s.sistant.

I was surprised to hear the female card king offer me a job, it was contrary to the reaction I was expecting from. But considering that the pseudo-natural array formation she set was non-lethal I guess it is not surprising that she did not try to kill for transpa.s.sing her property. As flattered as I was for being offered a job by her, I shook my cat monster head refusing her offer. Yes, a part of me was worried about what to do if she were to react violently to my rejection.

"Buddy, no matter how adorable I find a cat monster with human-like reactions. Heads will start rolling if you don't get an answer in yes or no," The female card king snapped. Heads will start rolling? What was her attempt to intimidate me into agreeing to her job offer? Well, well done, now I was really considering becoming her a.s.sistant.
