While I was busy with Sarah’s origin card creation I asked Van to do two things for me,

1.Find a suitable E-rank or above dungeon belonging to three guilds for me to feed on.

2.Find two people who could represent and replace the guild leaders of Sun boar guild and Raven guild.

I have been racking my brain trying to figure out the third condition to unlock the 3rd transformation of the calamity soul core. Taking the example of dungeon calamity seed exclusively feeding on dungeon core I thought maybe devouring a dungeon core would be the third condition to unlock the 3rd transformation of origin card calamity soul core. Therefore I asked Van to find a waste E rank or above dungeon belonging to the three guilds so that I can feed on the dungeon core.

Sarah currently owns the three guilds according to the majority share distribution and in papers, if she wanted to she can merge the three guilds and form a new guild in name but the same cannot be said for the members of the three guilds, though they all are allies still the merger will be a huge change for the members to get used to with their old comrades and leader dead. Not to mention Sarah is just a card scholar realm card apprentice it will be hard for her to gain the respect and approval of the guild members even with the full support of Van. Therefore to gain the recognition and approval of the members of the three guilds I needed two people who could represent and replace the guild leaders of Sun boar guild and Raven guild and provide support to Sarah.

…

After careful consideration, I knew that I had to increase the strength of the variant charcoal exoskeleton of the Charcoal fire beetle to increase the temperature of the flame generated by it. So we can conclude that the temperature of the flame generated by charcoal beetles is directly proportional to the durability and hardness of their variant charcoal exoskeleton.

The charcoal of the charcoal fire beetle exoskeleton is dubbed as variant charcoal because it is biologically grown as the charcoal fire beetle exoskeleton and in many ways, it is stronger and durable than natural charcoal as it is reinforced by soul energy. So the strength, durability and hardness of the charcoal exoskeleton depend on the physique of the charcoal fire beetle. Then what will the strength, durability and hardness of the charcoal exoskeleton be for a Viltronian physique? Definitely a few times better than the charcoal exoskeleton of the regular charcoal fire beetle. Not to mention Viltronian physique has a high level of elemental and physical damage tolerance, thanks to its soul energy reinforced physique.

Now that strength, durability and hardness of the charcoal exoskeleton were taken care of next came the soul energy control and advanced Pyrokinesis.

Viltronian’s mostly relied on their brute strength so when it comes to soul energy control they are weaker compared to the charcoal fire beetle so the Viltronian physique is of no help in this situation.

Thankfully the Calamity daughter core had the soul energy manipulation ability of Soulpoles. Which completely took care of the lacking soul energy control problem.

As for the advanced pyrokinesis, as long you meet a certain threshold of soul energy control you can easily display advanced pyrokinesis without any difficulty.

Advanced Pyrokinesis was necessary to enhance the temperature of the flame produced by igniting the charcoal exoskeleton. As the charcoal exoskeleton based on the Viltronian physique is very strong and durable it can easily withstand a few times more heat withstood by the charcoal exoskeleton of charcoal fire beetle.

Due to the Viltronian physique, the herculean strength and resilience of the beetle family were redundant. Therefore I did not bother adding this ability to the origin card.

Lastly to meet the requirements of Sarah using the gender transform skill of the charcoal beetle. I had given her two choices,

1.She could permanently switch to her opposite sex.

2.She could temporarily switch to her opposite sex for a limited amount of time.

‘What’s the difference?’

In the first case, Sarah will permanently transform her gender. But in the second case, Sarah can only transform her gender for a limited period a day after that the ability would enter a cooldown period.

Charcoal fire beetle can only transform their gender during mating season and would transform back after the mating season which was similar to the second choice I mentioned to Sarah. But by identifying and isolating the soul pathway responsible for this phenomenon in charcoal beetle, I could give Sarah the ability to transform permanently or temporarily for a limited time. Finally, it was up to Sarah and she chose the second option according to her wish.

Having planned the complete card creation processes I formed a party with Sarah and opening the card creation page I placed the Charcoal fire beetle core, origin core and calamity daughter core on the card creation page.

First I transferred the soul pathways of the charcoal fire beetle and calamity daughter core into the origin core. Then I used the soul pathways of the calamity daughter core to transform the origin core into a new calamity daughter core containing the soul pathway both of the charcoal fire beetle core and old calamity daughter core.

Then I identified soul pathways responsible for the variant charcoal exoskeleton growth in charcoal fire beetle. Isolating that particular soul pathway I add it to the Viltronian physique. And then I cut off the soul pathways related to the pyrokinesis ability of the charcoal fire beetle and added it to the soul pathways of calamity daughter core.

Done transferring the soul pathways of the variant charcoal exoskeleton growth and pyrokinesis ability of charcoal fire beetle to the soul pathways of calamity daughter core, I needed to find the soul pathway responsible for gender transform in charcoal fire beetle and optimise it to Sarah’s requirement before adding it to the soul pathways of calamity daughter core.
