Location Sky Blossom City, Whiteburn Manor, South Wing, Card Hall.

“This is our family’s renowned card hall, many visiting golden card creationists prefer our card hall over the Guild association mall and the Card creationist guild card rooms. This is one of our manors proud sections.” Eliza proudly introduced me to the high-end Whiteburn family card hall.

“Impressive to even outshine the card creationist guild, your card hall must be ranked no.1 in the sky blossom city.” I was impressed because the card creationist guild is supposed to have the best card rooms.

“Hehe! No, the card creationist guild premium card rooms are the best in the city but they do not allow anybody other than their members to use them. So, the visiting card creationists come to our card hall.” Explained Eliza, a slight blush was visible on her cheeks no matter how hard she tried to keep her expression in check.

“No.2, still better than being ranked no.3.” I tried to ease the atmosphere.

“Right! Choose any one of the Cardrooms you like and occupy it, if you require any assistance staff and servants are placed all over the place they will even run errands for you. Then I will be taking my leave now.” Learning from her past mistake Eliza did not try to be polite.

“One moment!”

“Yes”

“Susan will be sending some ingredients in an hour, by then I will be in the middle of card creation, can you ask someone to receive them for me and give them to me later when I need them” I explained my situation.

“Sure, I will ask one of the servants to receive the ingredients and keep them at the front desk, you can receive them when you can. So, I will take my leave then. Happy creation.” Saying that Eliza turned around and walked as fast as possible without looking back. Shaking my head, I chose the nearest empty card lab and occupied it.

…

Cerberus is normally a B-rank boss monster but in White burn families A-rank gate dungeon Maya dunes, there is a hidden chest room which is guarded by a C-rank Cerberus. Cerberus cores are rare mental strength related card ingredients. And have a high demand because a good card creationist can use them to create strong mental strength-enhancing cards which can passively split a card apprentice’s mental strength into three.

But the cards created with these ingredients are usually B-rank cards which are not of any use to silver or lower grade card creationist but as it happens silver or lower grade card creationists is where the market is. Enter the C-rank Cerberus which can create a C-rank card making the C-rank Cerberus core rarer and more in demand.

Sometimes in auctions low ranking high-end cards auction costlier than high ranking cards because the market pool for high-level card apprentices in sky blossom city is very less compared to the low-level card apprentices who require a low-ranking high end. Since the majority of the Sky blossom city market is made up of low-level card apprentices it is easy to dump low ranking cards in sky blossom city for a higher price.

Ever since I had found out about the mutant soul power system I have been doing my research on monsters with possible mutated souls and finding ways to procure their core. And a C-rank Cerberus was next on my list. I had done all my research on this one and this was also one of the reasons I helped the Whiteburn siblings. If I am risking my neck then I better risk it for the most benefit.

Getting C-rank Cerberus core was my second priority right next to creating my second origin card. I prioritised this because after the soul mutation my body becomes unstable but I get rid of this drawback using the baptism and right now my active soul control was near 29% and with my next breakthrough nearing I had to mutate my soul as soon as possible or else I would have wasted one baptism.

Now that I had gotten my hands on a C-rank Cerberus core I was going to mutate my soul for the second time. But this time around I did not have a torn slice of the soul to directly begin with the mutation but thankfully the white urn card lab was equipped with the latest Soul scissors model and other machines which I do not recognise.

First I take the C-rank Cerberus core and study it thoroughly and reverse engineer it and study how it got its soul developed into a mutated soul and double-check each discovery because I am playing with my soul here if anything goes wrong I am done for. After forming a plan I move to the next step, slicing a part of my mutated soul.

Reading the brochure of the new soul scissor model I learnt how to operate this model. I then slice a part of my mutated soul in the middle at the narrow section. Then I use 5 soul jades to completely develop the sliced part of the soul into a complete soul but something unaccounted for occurred the sliced part of the soul developed into a mutated soul itself, no wonder it took 5 soul jades this time around to develop the slice of the soul into a complete soul.

But thankfully Cerberus mutant soul was exactly about this, growing two souls from a part of the first soul and then mending them to form a three consciousness mutated soul. I had to make changes midway to mend the two souls with two old souls. It was complicated but I made it work by mending the new mutated soul separately with each soul of the original mutated soul. This way the two mutated souls were connected by 3 bridges.

Next, I take out more soul jades to fatten the 3 brides connecting the two mutated souls with soul energy and overlapping common soul pathways between the two mutated souls. And as the 3 bridges connecting the two mutated souls fatten slowly the two mutated souls overlap to form a single new mutated soul with four new consciousness. I wanted to create a 3 consciousness mutated soul similar to a Cerberus but end up with a 4 consciousness mutated soul.

Next came the programming of the two new consciousness before they gained wisdom but this time around the A.I to be programmed in the two souls was a newer and better version I developed copying the skill Insight forecast. Which gave the new A.I’s the ability to stimulate every possible outcome of a situation. The new program was super dope, so I updated the program of the old slave soul.
