"Oh, this is nothing, she has recovered from worse and that was before she got her origin card," Diana responded nonchalantly to Aurelia's shock. She did not appear to be anguished over Jaya's current state. She was rather apathetic about Jaya's fight. Seeing Diana's lackluster reaction to Jaya's fight would make it hard for a stranger to guess they were sisters. "Jaya lacks the creativity to fight but is good at taking a beating. When it comes to stamina no one is her match unless they have a special physique or skill like you," Cindy shook her head and informed Aurelia adding to Diana's response. "I agree with you, she makes a good punching bag. I have fought her, I should know. But I feel like her opponent is toying with her," Aurelia felt that Jaya's opponent was using her to keep the live stream lively, instead of finishing her off in one go. "Well, underestimating Jaya will cost them dearly. You will see," Cindy said having been part of Jaya's daily training.
"Whatever, I don't like this. How much longer? Can't this thing go any faster?" Aurelia asked Diana impatiently. Even though Jaya was part of Fine Gold she moonlighted as a member of Bright Lions. So Aurelia could not help but feel responsible for her. "My Phantom fleet isn't meant to climb to such high altitude, the flagship and the phantom crew are doing their best. We still have 50 miles to go," Diana replied in annoyance. Her phantom fleet's maximum operational height was six to eight miles from the ground. Right now she was burning mid-grade soul jades as fuel for it to climb to the edge of the void nearly 100 miles from the ground. Her phantom fleet's maximum speed was the best among any A-rank vehicle cards out there, but when climbing beyond the specified maximum height, its speed was reduced by a significant margin. Therefore, Diana was satisfied that her origin card was able to take her to the edge of the void so that she wouldn't miss out on the action. "Aaah!" Aurelia screamed in frustration. Her body might be here but her mind was at the Jaya's fight. If only her hoverboard was capable of climbing to the edge of the void.
Having played their share of school gang fights at Aurelia's age, Diana and Cindy clearly understood Aurelia's frustration but there was nothing they could do about it. Just then, a thought crossed Cindy's mind, building on it, Cindy took out a golden grimoire and passed it to Aurelia, " I have a means to help you get to the edge of the void faster. First, take it and upgrade your grimoire. It should be possible with your new traits." "A golden grimoire, that's too much. I can't," Aurelia was aware that a golden grimoire was a precious resource even for a big company from a third-rate city so she immediately rejected Cindy's offer. Besides, her family would provide her with a golden grimoire if she needed one. "Don't feel burdened. Boss has given us a bunch of gold and silver grade grimoires to sponsor talented card apprentices such as yourself," Cindy pushed the golden grimoire into Aurelia's hands. "Talented card apprentices," An unconscious smile graced Aurelia's lips as she uttered these words. Then taking the golden grimoire from Cindy, she summoned her silver grimoire to begin the upgrading process. After a couple of minutes, Aurelia's grimoire's silver brilliance slowly morphed into golden and vanished revealing a golden grimoire. Witnessing that Aurelia's grimoire was upgraded, Cindy unequipped two cards from her grimoire, and before passing them to Aurelia she reminded, "I am only lending you these cards temporarily. You have to return them to me later." "Yes, I will," Aurelia enthusiastically took the cards from Cindy and equipped them in her upgraded grimoire. Upon learning that Cindy's cards were a wind rule rune spirit summon card and a summon possession card, she exclaimed, "Woah! these cards are too strong. How can I get one?" "Boss gave me the summon card when we uprooted the sun blossom city branch of the circle. If you are lucky, he might give you one later," Cindy's wind rule rune spirit summon card was none other than the elemental rune spirit summon card Wyatt had created using broken runes. Later, she bought the summon possession card with her savings. These cards were too precious and stronger together, it was hard for her to part with them even if it was only her temporarily lending them to Aurelia.
"Stop wasting your time and get to the battlefield. Corey has made her appearance, don't let her steal all the spotlight," Diana said noticing Corey's appearance in the livestream of Jaya's fight.
Diana was well aware of her little sister's strengths and weaknesses. Jaya was strong with a powerful origin card but not skilled enough to become the center of attention on the battlefield, like Aurelia or Corey. Jaya seriously lacked in terms of combat skills. She was too reliant on her Origin card. Diana specifically had a card lord of Cindy's caliber to beat some combat skills into her but Jaya had yet to pick a descent combat sense. But she had made some progress, far better than the idiotic display she had put on during the city's tournament. "How did Corey get there faster than us? I have to get there immediately," the only people to suppress Aurelia in the Bright Lions were all the descendants of the Bright Family, the Bright Brothers, and Corey. These people displayed strong physical strength, had awesome origin cards, and were highly skilled in combat. No matter how hard she tried she could not last more than ten minutes against them. This was especially true against Corey.
"Summon- Wind rule elemental rune spirit," Aurelia uttered in urgency, soon the wind in front of her gathered to form a voluptuous humanoid female figure. The spirit's curves and lines were well defined along with its facial features, it appeared to look like an apparition of a benevolent middle-aged woman. "Summon possession!" With Aurelia's commoned the wind apparition turned into a tornado and entered Aurelia's body. Soon Aurelia's body and hair began to float wrapped by a delicate layer of wind. "This is awesome, see you guys later," bidding her goodbye Aurelia rushed to the edge of the void with her new found cards. ..
