Powered by the insane computing speed of Hive AI I can use my soul pupils ability to deduce any soul pathway within minutes. With such deduction power, I did not have to worry about using devil-grade ingredients in card creation. However, I did not borrow 50 devil-grade ingredients from the Southern royal family for card creation but as capital to build an insanely sophisticated VR-City at an insane speed as possible.
“Can I ask what you are going to do with these 50 devil-grade ingredients?” Ann asked the boy not out of curiosity but suspicion that he was up to something. She had this nagging feeling this moment was the prequel of something bigger than herself.
“Why ask when you can see the answers you seek in two days?” I said without much thought and then following my memory I headed toward the guest palace.
“Aren’t you profound,” Ann mocked seeing the boy was so tight-lipped about his intentions. But Ann was not bothered by it, as long as the boy is within the southern royal palace, all his actions will not escape the royal family’s eyes.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm “Colton, don’t disturb me for the next two days,” I said to the butler, about to slam the door in his meddling face but he held the door by its edge and asked, “Sir, what about your meals?”
“I have other arrangements,” I said with a frown.
This guy has been more clingy since I returned from the auction house, making his intentions to keep tabs on me for his master obvious. How shameless was the Southern Royal family willing to be? Or was he just a distraction for something else?
“Sir, I will be right by the door so please call if you need anything,” the butler said, letting go of the door.
Either way, it did not matter because I had the seed world. Inside its isolated space, any of the Southern Royal family’s surveillance was bound to be useless. Closing the door and locking it, I moved into the seed world.
“Now, this is troublesome?” muttered Colton who stood expressionlessly by the room door feeling the boy’s presence disappear from the room into a seed that burrowed into the surrounding space and lodged in there.
Inside the seed world, I summoned the stone Viltronians and had them use their stone rule to create more floating islands so that my mutated soul clones can erect the VR-Card creation array formations on them. While my summons and clones got busy, I turned my grimoire pages to the demon merchant pages and accessed the inter-realm network,
[Welcome to Inter-Realm Network, please choose the network you want to explore,]
“Personal Realm Network”
[Dear Demon Merchant,
You are yet to host a Personal Realm Network.
Do you want to host a personal realm network by giving the devil merchant code an appropriate offering?
(Yes/No)]
“Yes,” I answered decisively.
[Dear Demon Merchant,
To host a Personal Realm Network for a day you will have to offer 10 mid-grade soul jade. Do you wish to proceed with the offering?
(Ye/No)
Note: Demon Merchant can offer other offerings of equal value.]
“Yes,” I said, placing one devil-grade ingredient on the offering page of the demon merchant pages.
[Dear Demon Merchant,
With this offering you can host a Personal Realm Network for a century. Do you want to proceed with the offering?
(Yes/No)]
“Yes,” I affirmed, taking a step toward my plan.
[Dear Demon Merchant,
Your Personal Realm Network (PRN)is online for the next 100 years. As the Administrator of the Personal Realm Network (PRN), you can personalize it through the Admin page in your Demon Merchant Codex.
Note: Due to the special offering Devil Merchant code has added a free network security to your PRN for the next 100 years. ]
‘Was this the Devil merchant Code’s way of asking me to use Devil-grade ingredients as an offering more often?’ I wondered having learned that the Devil Merchant code that was known for its greed actually offered free network security to my PRN for the next hundred years. Regardless, this was good news for me as I planned to conduct my next transaction using Devil-grade ingredients.
After hosting my own PRN, I explored it and except for my demon merchant ID, it was empty. I guess other demon merchants can now access my PRN using my demon merchant ID.
Soon I accessed the admin page with my demon merchant ID and uploaded the Hive AI into my PRN servers giving it full administrative powers. With this I no longer had to use the Demon Merchant pages to access my PRN instead I could directly access it through the Hive AI. Now this was a very important step for my plans to host the VR-City—no, the VR-Universe in my PRN.
Next, I accessed the devil merchant code to help me create a VR-Universe big enough to house trillions of consciousnesses within it in my PRN. First, I just wanted to stick with the plan and create a VR-City but seeing how low it costs to create a fully immersive illusionary city with interactive NPCs I decided to expand the VR-City into a VR-Universe as my budget allowed it.
Since I conduct the whole transaction using Devil-grade ingredients, the Devil Merchant code added the high-level interactive NPCs to the VR-Universe for free, it connected my PRN to the sample VR-city I create in the Grimoire network for free, and also offer free security, maintenance, and upkeep of the VR-Universe and it’s NPCs for the next hundred years.
By connecting my PRN to the sample VR-City I built in the grimoire network, the devil merchant code had turned it into a gateway for the natives of the card world to enter the VR-Universe in my PRN using their Grimoire through the Grimoire network.
