"Diana, have you ever heard of time-related cards?"
"Time-related cards? Do you mean like the set of cards used by the prophets that helps them predict the future?" Diana replied with the first thing that came to her mind hearing the Time-related cards.
"Yes, but that's not what I am looking for," I remember principal Andrea saying that the city's prophet predicted that I would be attending the school tournament.
"I guess, then the weather forecast card is also not what you are looking for. Come to think of it, I heard rumors that the leader of the circle had a card that could allow him to see a few seconds into the future. Is that what you are looking for, boss?" Diana thought hard and answered again. A card that allows the user to see a few seconds into the future, Pax Whiteburn, was also bestowed with a similar skill by his demigod ancestor.
But that was not what I was looking for. I guess Diana does not understand that when I say time-related cards, I mean cards that can manipulate time, not cards that can forecast. So I made that clear to her, "Diana, by time-related cards, I mean cards that give their users the ability to manipulate time itself."
"Oh! I see. I have never heard of such a card. Is that even possible? But I have a card that removes the cooldown period of active cards." Diana could not believe that there were cards that could manipulate time itself. But remembering her trump card, which she uses to remove the cooldown period of her origin card, she thought time manipulating cards might exist.
Diana has never left the southern region. She was hardly the person I should approach for council on various cards in this world. So, I searched for answers in Clown Mask's memory. Even in the alternate timeline, she never came across a card apprentice with time manipulation cards. But considering that Clown Mask had the physique that showed Clown Mask her entire future, time-related cards exist.
The existence of time-related cards was not a question, to begin with. But the card apprentice with time-related cards. There are too few of them, and they are well hidden. And I wanted to know who was behind the world rewind earlier and if they were an ally or a foe of mine and humanity in general.
[Master! Corey took Manager Susan to the F-rank Horned Hare Heaven's gate dungeon. I will send you the location. I will be waiting there to get you the Bright family guards' clearance to enter the dungeon.]
'Good, I will be right there.' Nick suddenly contacted me through Hive AI and shared the dungeon location where Corey took Susan for a dungeon ride.
"Diana, how far are you from forging your ego gem?" Seeing Diana's sincerity, I decided that it was time I gave her a carrot.
"I have found my ethereal spirit, but the soul energy refining is a bit lacking. Recently, I haven't found enough time to refine my soul energy managing the company." Diana replied honestly.
"Then make time. Come by to the warehouse tomorrow for silver milk powder. With that, you should be able to forge your ego gem in the next three months. For now, get back to your work. And have your people keep an eye on Rami. If he tries to skip town on me, I should know asap." Diana's progress in forging her ego gem was more than I expected. I thought, her being an upstart with no background, she would not know the procedure to forge an ego gem, but it seems she is more capable than I give her credit for.
"Yes, boss, I follow your arrangement. And rest assured, if Rami tries to skip town, you will be the first to know." Diana nodded in agreement with me.
"Good. Van, you head back to the guild and see to it that the guild members are mentally for the upcoming war. You too, Diana. Even though Fine Gold Guards are reinforcement, I want them both mentally and physically prepared for war. I will take my leave now." I exited the VIP box and walked out of the restaurant. Summoning my nanomorpher, I headed to the F-rank Horned Hare Heaven gate dungeon.
According to the map, the D-rank silver beach gate dungeon was on route to the F-rank Horned Hare Heaven gate dungeon, so I decided to make a stop there and meet up with Luna to talk about the platinum grimoire and time manipulation cards.

"This is a restricted area. Unless you are authorized to be here, please leave the place immediately." A middle-aged soldier blocked my path as I tried to get near the route to the D-rank Silver Beach gate dungeon.
"I think I am authorized to be here, soldier. Let me pass through." I used my soul pupils on the soldier and found that he was in the Card King realm. And to my surprise, I found another ten card kings hidden in the darkness of the night, watching my every move.
"You think? Hey buddy, let me tell you this is not a place to create trouble. Unless you want to be charged with trespassing, please take a turn and go away." The Soldier's voice turned cold fast, and he started to leak an intimidating aura.
"Anna, how long are you going to keep watching? Isn't it about time for you to come and stop your soldiers from making fools of themselves?" I said, gazing into the dark sky. When I was exploring my surroundings, I found Anna hidden in the night sky watching the show.
"Those beautiful eyes of yours, how many secrets are they hiding?" Said Anna as she flew out of hiding and landed next to me. Seeing that their commander was acquainted with me, the soldiers returned to their post.
