Chapter 249: Stone Wrap

Date- 27 Mar 2321

Time- 10:17

Location- Sky Blossom City, Sky Blossom Card Stadium, Second Round Arena 2

Catching the green glue bullet with my gauntlet covered hand I made use of the stone multiplication ability of the summon armament and shaped the marked part of the stone into a ball and threw it high up in the air. Just then a huge creature invisible to the naked eye leapt out of the arena floor and swallowed the ball up high in the sky.

Finally, I was able to see the full body of the Whale like creature, it was a whale except it lacked a physical body and was able to swim in space and vanish into another dimension using physical objects as its medium. This is the reason why I threw the stone ball marked by the green glue bullet up high in the sky so that I could see the creature’s complete bizarre body. Turns out the creature was just a whale lacking a physical body and with some amazing abilities.

After swallowing the stone ball the whale did not vanish into thin air instead it fell on the arena floor and swam underground vanishing into whatever dimension it came from. This led to me concluding that the creature used physical objects as a medium to come and go as from its dimension to this world as it pleases. Thankfully the rules that made it overpowered also constrained it otherwise it would also be registered as Calamity along with Dungeon Calamity seed. Seeing that my strategy was a success I became more confident in dealing with Kimble.

“What faq did you just do?” Kimble yelled at me it seems he was also able to see the creature. His face had turned pale, seeing the complete body of the creature up close. Panicked, Kimble chanted Bait another 20 times in a row locking me as the target “*Bait* *Bait* *Bait*…. *Bait*”

I saw 20 green glue bullets heading towards me simultaneously but I did not panic. Instead, I made use of stone manipulation and summoned a huge stone dome to cover me. I made sure that the stone dome had a large space inside it such that I would not be swallowed by the creature as collateral damage.

Unable to find me, the 20 green glue bullets landed on the stone dome. And soon a huge mouth surfaced from the arena floor and swallowed the stone dome. I deactivated the soul pupils to save my eyes from seeing the disgusting interior of the creature’s mouth.

Using a shield type card against Kimble’s green glue bullet was not an option because the green glue would stick to the shield and the shield would be a connection to the card apprentice physically or through soul energy giving the creature access to swallow the card apprentice. There I cut my soul energy connections with stone manipulation after throwing the stone ball and summoning the stone dome. This is the reason why Kimble was confident of his ability and also because the homing ability will avoid the shield and some for the card apprentice as much as possible making partial and small shields useless.

“How is it possible? It must be a coincidence, again *Bait* *Bait* *Bait*… *Bait*” Seeing the Stone dome be swallowed while I remain untouched Kimble was dumbfounded. He never stopped to think that I could have cracked the mystery behind his ability. Instead, he repeated the same pattern of attack again and again only to get the same results.

Even a dumbass would know that if you are getting the same results for the same process again and again it is no longer a coincidence or luck but fact. But Kimble did not seem to understand that simple logic. Therefore I decided to help him understand the reality.

“Stone Warp” finding an opening I used stone manipulation to bind Kimble in a thick sheet of stone from his mouth to toe. Below his nose, Kimble was completely bound and wrapped in a stone sheet like the flatbread wrapping the Shawarma.

Being bound with stone, Kimble could no longer use his finger gun or chant the word ‘Bait’. Kimble tried hard to free himself from the stone warp. But his struggle was vain as except for moving his facial skin, eyelids and some cartilage tissue of his nose and ears Kimble could not move a single muscle being tightly bound by a stone warp created using an A-rank summon armament.

“Settle down, you can free yourself from that. Just wait patiently after I am done, maybe I will let you live.” Hearing my words Kimble struggled harder but to me, his struggle seemed like he was trying too hard to make funny faces at me. As he could only move his fanatical tissues and muscles. Ignoring Kimble, I got down to business, that is to advertise my Card Boutique.

Seeing Kimble be immobilised being bound by stone warp the referee was in a bind if the rules were the same as in the old tournament immobilising an opponent meant that he had to declare the other contestant as the winner but the new rules suggested that unless or until one of the contestants surrenders or is out of arena bounds he could not declare a winner. This rule favoured the cruel contestants and hurt the weak contestants. This is one of the rules which made my students who were planning to participate in the tournament back down.

Now that pest was taken care of and the whole arena belonged to me, I began executing my plan, turning to the audience I shouted enhancing my voice with the soul power, ” Ladies and Gentlemen my name is Dalton Wyatt, a golden grade card creationist. I address you to showcase my new creation Nanomorpher” many people may have already guessed that I am a golden grimoire holder so I no longer hide the grade of my grimoire. And also a golden grimoire holder sounded more attractive and dependable than a silver grade grimoire holder.

Then I summoned my golden hoverbike, the hoverbike was black before feeding it Liquid spirit gold. Pointing at the golden hoverbike I shouted again, “Ladies and Gentlemen this is my latest invention nanomorpher. It looks like your average hoverbike but once you transform it to its second form it turns into a hovering golem.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce to you the one and only of its kind Nanomorpher.” With my command, the nanomorpher transformed into a golem. I could hear the ambience gasp as he saw the golden hoverbike turn into a golem with only its upper body while its lower body is made of a floater module. The golden golem then hovered in the arena area following my instructions. I asked it to transform between hoverbike and golem during flight to show the audience how dependable my card was.

“Dear customers, please visit my online Card boutique in the grimoire network for further information. Over Card boutique has served many VIP clients and also has a successful apprentice who has opened a card studio of her own.

Yes, people you heard me right, our boutique’s employee has opened her card studio and that fortunate employee is none other than Ms Corey Bright.” To add some credibility to my Card Boutique, I made use of Corey’s name. It was okay since I did not lie. And getting on the Hoverbike from nanomorpher I roamed the arena and further added that ” Ladies and gentlemen Nanomorpher is my creation and you cannot find others of its kind in another market. If you are interested in becoming a proud owner of a custom Nanomorpher please visit association guild mall warehouse number 234.

Dear customers, not just a Nanomorpher my services are available for the creation of any form of custom active, passive, Item and origin card. Please check out my works at my online shop. And please take note prices of service are negotiable”

Done with advertising my card boutique I turned my attention to the stone wrapped Kimble who seemed to have given up on struggling and accepted his loss. Seeing that I still had 4 more minutes till the time limit of the duel, I decided to play with him a bit, “Now what do I do with you? Should I kill you or just let you go.”

Kimble glared at me with fierce hatred filled eyes it seems he still has not learnt his place. I used stone manipulation to strengthen the constraint of the stone wrap. Just a little and Kimble’s face turned red, his eyes looked like they were about to pop. Then suddenly I remembered Vivian saying that the Circle had arranged an auction to sell the quota for who gets to fight me first. Since they can organize an auction for my life then so could I, turning to the audience I shouted with my soul energy strengthened voice, ” Wang family and its competitors listen up, during this last 4 minutes of the duel I would like to conduct an auction for the life of the Wang family genius, Kimble Wang. Let the highest bidder decide this genius’s fate.”
