Chapter 303: End of the Game
The shock of the two caused Kira to burst into laughter: "Wahahaha!!! There is no limit to the number of times this skill can be used per round!"
The skill was activated, and Kira removed the three "Mischief" cards from Lucy's hand. At this time, Lucy had no cards to discard, but it didn't matter; the loss of 1 point of magic power was still acceptable; but the last 1 point of damage was still left to fate.
"Come on, Lucy! It's time to test whether your skill is really useful!!"
Kira rubbed his hands together, Cana frowned, and Lucy looked serious. The three of them were waiting for the moment when the answer would be revealed.
[Useless Sex|Seduction Technique] was slowly activated, the card was turned over, and four big words slowly came into the eyes of several people - Card Storm!
[Card Storm (3): Get a card from each character]
This is a magic card!
"Oh! How lucky!" Kira announced the end of the round and looked at Kana and said, "By the way! [Card Storm] is designed based on your skills, Kana!"
Kana smiled again and sat down again with pride: "Thank you so much!"
The ninth game ended without any danger. After Lucy's resurrection, Cana's death, and Lucy's near death again, Kira finally used up all her magic power, and only one basic card [Defense] was left in her hand, whose authenticity was unknown.
The situation of the three people at this time is:
[Kana: Killed]
Lucy:
Health: 1/4
Magic: 3/4
Hand: 0
【Kira:
Health: 3/8
Magic: 0/8
Hand: 1
Equipment: [Thunder Spear]
Props: [Magic Airship]
Lucy looked up and confirmed with Kira again: "As long as I can survive this, we will pass your test, right?"
"Of course!" Kira nodded with a smile and asked, "Are you confident?"
The two girls looked at each other and answered in unison, "Of course!"
The game has finally reached the end!
Lucy drew the cards tremblingly, and got one "Bond of Friends" and one "Expectation of the Elders".
[Friends' Bond: Select any two characters and put them into the 'Bond' state. Characters in this state cannot cause damage to each other. Use it again to cancel the 'Chain' state.]
[Elder's Blessing: Restores health and mana to full. Remove this card from the game after use.]
Both are item cards, both are very useful and both have important meanings.
"Come on, Kira! Be my friend!"
The moment she saw the cards in her hand, Lucy finally smiled, because she knew that she could survive Kira's last round!
"Designate myself and Kira, and use [Bond of Friends]!"
When the card was activated, white chains immediately appeared on the character cards of Lucy and Kira, which meant that both of them were in a "bound" state and could not attack each other.
"That's enough! You won't be able to cause me any harm in the next rounds. That way we should be able to pass this level, right?"
However, Kira raised his eyebrows: "Really? I still have a card in my hand. Although I just told you that it is [Defense], what I said may not be true!"
"I can draw two more cards in the draw phase later, plus the two cards after activating [Genius of Mischief]. Among these five cards, do you dare to bet that [Bond of Friends] is not among them?"
"Of course I know about this!" Lucy looked at the cards in her hand and shouted, "Activate [Astral Summoning] three times! Use [Elder's Blessing]!"
"Underestimating the enemy and being careless is fatal in battle!"
While Lucy was using her skill to summon the Celestial Spirit, Kira said to the two of them earnestly, "Maybe I can't say it as deeply as the president or Gildarts, but I still hope you remember that at any time, don't let your guard down before the battle is completely over!"
"The last moment before victory often hides the most dangerous crisis! If you don't face every test and battle with this mentality, you can't become a qualified S-class wizard!!"
“Yes… yes…”
Hearing the two people's casual perfunctory response, Kira immediately became unhappy: "What are you doing?! This is a very important assessment for you! Listen carefully to the teachings of your seniors! I spent a whole minute preparing these lines!!!"
But the two were watching the star spirit skills summoned by Lucy and did not respond.
Kira sighed helplessly, "Alright, alright! It's my turn!"
He silently drew 2 cards, and then drew 2 more cards, but none of the 5 cards had [Bond of Friends], which meant that he could not cause any harm to Lucy.
"Alright! You passed the test!"
"Eh?! But we haven't finished reading the skills of the Protoss yet! Also, why is there a..."
"Why are you still reading character cards? They are all skills that seriously affect the gaming experience!"
Kira snatched the cards from the two people and put all the game cards back into the box. "Did you forget that you are taking an exam?! If you survive this dungeon, you will have plenty of opportunities to play in the future!"
The three men stood up and brushed the dust off their pants.
"Thank you, Kira!" Kana smiled and waved.
Kira reached out and used magic to open the storage space and put the game card box in it: "You are lucky! And...Kana!"
"What's wrong?"
Kira sighed and said meaningfully: "Children want to see their parents, they don't need that kind of messed up excuse!!"
Kana remained silent upon hearing this. She was actually very clear about this matter, but the goal she set at the beginning had become a shackle in her heart over the years, imprisoning her tightly and making it difficult for her to break free.
Seeing Cana's expression, Kira knew that she hadn't listened again, so he turned around and asked, "By the way, Lucy, did you write a goodbye letter to your father as I asked you to do the other day?"
When Lucy heard Kira's words, she was stunned at first, thinking that his question was really strange, but she quickly thought of the relationship between Gildarts and Cana, and guessed that Kira must know the situation, so she planned to use her own experience to explain.
"What goodbye?! Please don't make it sound like we'll never see each other again!"
Lucy said with her hands on her hips angrily, "Anyway, you must be trying to say to Cana, 'Lucy and her father had such a bad relationship before, but now they can interact with each other freely, so you should also feel at ease and boldly reveal your identity to Gildarts', right?"
"I didn't mean to say that! I really just wanted you to have a good talk with your father... Your attitude isn't too bad, is it? As a child, you should sometimes understand your parents' feelings!"
"Alright, alright..." Lucy waved her hand impatiently, "Why do you sound like an old grandfather?"
"Hmph! This is rare advice! If you don't listen, you will regret it later..."
Lucy was about to say something like "You don't know how nagging my father is", but suddenly remembered that Kira was an orphan, and swallowed her words back.
"Kira... is it possible that he really wants to meet his parents?"
If Kira knew what Lucy was thinking, she would definitely yell, "You really think too much! Also, don't be so emotional!"
"I say, why are you so concerned about this matter?" Lucy was about to walk to the end of the passage with Cana, but suddenly turned around and asked Kira.
"Oh, that's nothing."
Kira waved his hand casually and followed. "It's just that there is a high possibility of an accident during this assessment. If we fail to prevent it, you and your father may never see each other again! In other words, the previous letter will really be the final farewell between you. I don't want you to have any regrets!"
"Huh? " Lucy frowned and tilted her head, her face full of confusion.
Cana looked at Kira who had caught up with her and asked curiously, "Are you going with us?"
Kira replied, "Yes! There are some things I need to discuss with the president!"
