There’s Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made!

Watching Alice's fleeing figure, Theresa wanted to chase after her but felt that doing so would only make her more embarrassed.

However, not chasing after her might mean that she and Alice wouldn't talk to her for a long time in the future.

She helplessly glanced at Dekan.

The smile on Dekan's face seemed to say, "my bad."

"Haaa."

Theresa sighed deeply.

This guy is becoming more and more inhumane.

When she first met him in that border town shop, she thought he was quite normal...

Normal?

Oh, come on, that Goblin Sheriff was obviously not something a normal person would make.

It seemed like Dekan could sense Theresa's dilemma. He called out to her, "Theresa, you should go find Princess Alice. I probably won't be able to leave here for a while."

It seemed that the chief examiner had something important to discuss with him.

He also felt that Alice needed a little comfort.

He had indeed been a bit too harsh.

Actually, Dekan hadn't initially intended to make an epic card.

He had originally just wanted to try his best to make a tier 3 rare quality card. He would’ve considered it a success if that happened.

After all, he had spent so much on the registration fee. Even if it didn't make the electric meter turn backward, he couldn't afford to lose out on the cost.

But as he worked on it, he got carried away.

It wouldn't be surprising if the card exploded at any moment during the production process.

After all, every step of it was defying and rewriting the holy attribute.

Unfortunately, luck was on his side.

Not only did it not explode, it even successfully reached epic quality.

What? You say it was just luck from the start?

What are you talking about? I don't understand.

"Okay then, I’ll see you at school!"

Theresa waved to Dekan and quickly walked away.

She had to save Alice's devastated heart.

...

The exam had already ended.

Now, several examiners had gathered around Dekan.

The moment Dekan created the orange card, the other examinees who had been struggling couldn't withstand the dazzling and mind-blowing special effects.

All of them were temporarily blinded and failed their exam attempts.

In fact, their minds had been so shaken that they no longer had the confidence to continue.

In any case, being able to witness such a miracle up close didn't seem like too much of a loss.

"Mr. Dekan, could you please come with us to meet President Leyun?"

The chief examiner, even though he was a tier 6 card maker, was being quite polite to Dekan.

It was because Dekan was going to become a special class cardmaker.

Third class to first class card makers could go to the certification hall on the third floor to receive their corresponding licenses after passing the exam.

But for special class cardmakers, they didn't have ready-made licenses here!

They had to be reviewed and then their licenses created by headquarters.

The value of the title "special class" couldn't be described by tiers.

The examiners were very self-aware and knew the status Dekan would reach in the future, henceforth they began to treat Dekan with extra respect.

"No problem."

"Please follow us."

"Sure."

...

Dekan followed several examiners through an internal corridor, leaving the examination room behind.

The chief examiner led Dekan through a series of floating stairs to the sixth floor.

It was also the top floor of the building.

The sixth floor was rarely visited by people and Dekan was brought to the entrance of the most conspicuous office.

The chief examiner gently knocked on the door and, after receiving a response from inside, he pushed open the heavy door before indicating for Dekan to enter.

Inside the spacious office was an elderly man.

The elderly man appeared to be in his sixties but his posture was straight and his eyes sparkled with intelligence.

He was dressed in the highest quality association uniform and his slightly graying hair hung over his forehead. He wore a faint smile on his face.

Clearly, he was the branch president of the Card Makers Association in the Norton Kingdom.

Unexpectedly, even before Dekan walked over, the president stood up and walked around the desk to shake hands with him.

This surprised Dekan.

"Dekan, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Mine as well, President Leyun."

Dekan noticed that there were seven purple stars on the president's uniform.

Apparently, he was a tier 7 first class card maker.

A real big shot.

A tier 7 expert, even if he was non-combatant, was still formidable.

Just swinging a hammer could easily defeat tier 3 and 4 opponents.

After inviting Dekan to sit on a nearby sofa, Leyun said, "First of all, congratulations on becoming a special class card maker. This is a lifetime honor, but the review process it entails is equally complex. So, in the future, you may need to participate in at least one review meeting."

"Special class card makers are the highest core members of our association. Regardless of the circumstances, the association will be your support."

"I can't currently award you the badge, uniform, or license because the symbols of a special class card maker need to be specially created after approval from headquarters."

Dekan listened somewhat dazedly. He hadn't expected to receive such a fantastic treatment just for making a tier 3 epic card.

Although he had heard of special class card makers, the Card Makers Association rarely publicized the mechanisms and privileges of special class card makers to the outside world. Thus, he knew very little about it.

"So, what am I considered now...?" Dekan asked with some confusion.

"Before you pass the review, you will temporarily have the rights of a tier 3 first class card maker."

"That's good then," Dekan replied.

He felt that the Card Makers Association's policy was quite good. Although the review process sounded a bit complicated, the implementation seemed reasonable.

"Is the review difficult?" he asked.

"I haven't heard of special class card makers having difficulty with the reviews, but... if it's you, the headquarters may conduct an additional investigation to see if you are associated with the Resurgence Church. Your card making style is... well, it's even more extreme than their archbishop's."

President Leyun seemed increasingly uncertain as he spoke.

He had also heard of Dekan's glorious deeds in manipulating the Shadow World and his bizarre cards.

Dekan fell silent for a moment.

He had a feeling that his delivery was going to be delayed for a long time.

Suddenly, he wanted to eradicate the Resurgence Church. It was their presence that caused him, a law-abiding citizen, to be misunderstood as a cultist.

"Don't worry, Dekan. I will actively communicate with headquarters on your behalf. You will definitely become the thirteenth special class card maker in existence on the entire continent and the second special class card maker in the Norton Kingdom!"

Leyun was clearly very excited about the fact that the Norton Kingdom would have two special class card makers.

"Even though I'm only tier 3, I will be mentioned alongside the other twelve?" Dekan asked.

"The title of 'special class’ is not dependent on your tier. No matter what tier you reach in the future, it won't change. Special class cardmakers are considered one of a kind, regardless of their previous tiers or any future advancements," Leyun explained.

First class and second class were honorable titles too. Afterall, they signified that a card maker was capable of creating high rarity cards of the same tier.

However, special class designation was a concept completely different from the other three classes. It represented the absolute strength of a card maker. Those who could create epic cards were already well-known cardmakers, and card makers who could create epic cards of the same tier were extremely rare.
