Protection of Hundred Ogre's - A defensive skill that gives the wearer of Blood trench coat vitality of a Hundred Ogre.

Old Ben seemed to be good at the handicraft. I did not expect the weapon card made by him to turn out to be a coat, and not to mention it's pretty fashionable. Being able to forge Ogre blood into threads to create a cloth takes some serious skills. It seems the meaning Blood forge is a perfect match with Old Ben.

The only thing puzzling me about the Blood forged Item cards is how they gained the skill. For example, how did the Blood Trench Coat card gain the skill protection of Hundred Ogres? I don't think the Boss monster Ogre has a skill named protection of hundred Ogres. This is puzzling indeed. Since the card's creator is right in front of me, I might as well ask him, why so?

"Wow, Wyatt, the coat suits you." Cortney complements the Blood coat.

"I think it is too flashy and tasty. Why would you choose to wear something so tasty?" Blootette seems to see the Blood Coat as food.

"Thank you, old Ben. I like it." I thanked Ben for his thoughtful present.

"Don't thank me, Master Wyatt. It was Van's Idea." Hearing old Ben say that the present was Van's idea, it became clear to me why someone who has emotion paralysis would think of giving me a gift as a gesture its because someone asked him to.

"Old Ben, I like the card, but I am curious as to how it gained the skill 'protection of hundred Ogres'. I do not think such skill exists in Ogre species." Though the present was Van's idea, the card's creator is still old Ben, and he should know how the card got the skill.

"About that, I was trying to extract the minion summon skill of the Boss monster and add it to the trench coat, but somehow the skill got water-downed to the protection of hundred Ogres. I think I lost a lot of blood essence during the blood forging process, or it may be because my rune tier is not high enough." Old Ben wasn't sure either, but he believed that the skill resulted from energy loss during the forging process, or maybe his rune tire wasn't sufficient for forging the blood of the A-rank Boss monster. Either of the options will not be apparent until he uses his rune a few more times on boss monsters.

"I think it will all become clear to you after you use the A-rank Boss monster blood as ingredients a few more times." I encouraged old Ben to conduct a few more experiments using the A-rank Boss monster as ingredients.

"Yes, master Wyatt. I was planning to do so." Old Ben readily agreed to my advice. It seems he had the same thought as me.

"Uh-huh, Boss monster is mine. Mine alone. Baby boy, forget any thoughts you have about the Boss monster." Bloodette butted in, hearing the discussion between Old Ben and me about the Boss monster, reminding us that the Boss monster belonged to her and her alone.

"We will see, Kid." Old Ben retorted to Bloodette's claim.

"You…" Bloodette's word trailed off as her rage grew. She really hated being called Kid by old Ben.

"Bloodette, behave. The dungeon isn't ours alone." Cortney reminded Bloodette to behave and not to act childish or provoke others.

"I know that, but he keeps calling me Kid. I am not a kid." Irritated, Bloodette yelled in frustration

"Enough… Bloodette the Boss monster is not yours. Same rule as before. During the raid, whoever reaches the Boss room first after killing all the monsters on their way there claims the Boss monster. Is that clear?" Bloodette's childishness was getting on my nerves.

"I know that. All I am trying to say is that I will be the first one to reach the boss room, be it the second raid or the other raids. With my strength, I will never lose to him. He might as well give up now." Bloodette resorted to trash talk even though her history of trash talk against old Ben had not yielded good results.

"But you have already lost to him once, haven't you? He claimed the Boss monster in the previous raid. Did you forget about it already?" I corrected Bloodette as she brought this on herself.

"You! That doesn't count. It was not my fault that I got an unreliable teammate." Bloodette protested that her loss in the first round was because of Cortney and her weak bladder.

"Whatever you lost. Do not be a sore loser. Accept reality and own it." Saying that to Bloodette, I turned to old Ben and said, "old Ben, while you are busy, create a few Blood equipment for Cortney." Cortney seemed to like Blood Weapon cards, so I asked Old Ben to create some for her too.

"Yes, Master Wyatt. I will talk to her and decide what kind of equipment she requires. So I can make suitable equipments for her." Old Ben agreed to my request to create a few blood weapon cards for Cortney.

"Thank you, Captain Ben." Cortney did not act humble or remain on ceremony and hurriedly accepted Old Ben's offer.

"Good, Now I will be returning to the warehouse. Hoping that you guys will behave and achieve your tasks splendidly." Bidding goodbye to Cortney, Bloodette, and Old Ben, I head to the dungeon exit along with Van.

Walking out of the dungeon gate, Van headed to the TSR guild to plan for the future development of the TSR guild main branch in thr vicinity of the Blood rock Gate Dungeon. Letting Van be busy with his work. I summoned my hoverbike and headed to the warehouse.

Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild Association Mall, Warehouse no234.

As I entered the warehouse, I saw Susan was entertaining a guest. Feeling my presence, Susan and the guest turned to look at me. As the guest faced me, I finally knew who the guest was. It was none other than Diana Keith from Fine Gold.

"Wyatt, you are back. How was your retreat? Any success?" Susan greeted me and indirectly asked if my rune forging was a success.

"Yes, it was. And there were a few extra gains too." I replied to Susan enthusiastically.

"Great," Susan cheered for me, and then, turning to Daina, she said," Wyatt, Ms. Diana Keith from Fine Gold has been waiting for your return. It has been a while now."

"Hello, Master Wyatt." Seeing me turn to meet her eyes, Diana greeted me with a charming and charismatic smile. If not for her scars, this might have been enough to confuse me.

"Hello, Ms. Diana Kieth. What brings the CEO of Fine Gold to my humble card boutique? " With all the rumors following around me, I thought Daina Kieth would back off like other families. But that doesn't seem to be the case with her. Knowing Diana, she would choose to come to meet me even after knowing all the rumors about me only if she was scheming something.

"Master Wyatt, I wanted to congratulate you on your victory in the tournament finals. Who knew, you are not only a wiz in card creation but also card fight and personal strength. You have achieved so much at such a young age." Given a chance, Diana did not hesitate to flatter me with every kind word in her dictionary.

The rumors about me being a fraud and my patent on silver milk powder being a hoax have been spreading like wildfire in all the regions. With Anna's mother adding fuel to this fire, it has become very large, large enough to scare away the Duskborn family, who was planning to leech off me and my newfound wealth. This is why it was puzzling to see Diana come look for me.

"Thank Ms. Diana, anything else? If not__" Before I could ask Daina to leave my property, she interrupted me.

"Master Wyatt, have you heard from your friend Elliott? I heard he is in a pickle." Diana not only interrupted me, but she changed the topic suddenly from praising me to the current situation of Elliott. I did not know what she was trying to achieve by doing this, but she had my attention now. Honestly, I have been attempting to contact Elliott for a while, but I not could reach him. Therefore Daina's words raised alarms in my head.

"Ms. Diana, please explain what you are trying to say; otherwise, I may end up misunderstanding you and your intentions." I have heard that Elliott had to return early because his father is in serious condition, and using this situation to their advantage, his siblings are carrying out a coup.

Therefore I asked Daina to stop beating behind the bush and spill out what she was actually after. I did not have the time or patience for her games.. So I asked her to be direct and get to the point.
