Holding the Field Negator card, Old Lorenzo went through its info before scrutinizing it and said, "A s.p.a.ce-related card with impressive effects, it seems my niece is treating you well."

"Yes, she does," I know what Old Lorenzo was implying but I didn't bother to retort or explain because his opinion didn't matter to me.

"This is a pretty neat card, its effects are handy and widely sought after. It must have cost a fortune to create it despite the card's rank. if not for the card creator's lacking realm, they could have used higher-grade ingredients to give the card a rank worthy of the s.p.a.ce ingredients used to create it. Still, they managed to achieve the best effects, rating, and durability for the card within their limits," Old Lorenzo was full of praise for the card and its creator, even though he did not forget to imply he would have been able to create a better card with the higher grade ingredients.

"Nifty trick to use the s.p.a.ce collapse ability to attack nature's soul pathway in the surroundings of the user to destroy any temporary array formation and field or trap cards. It is sad to see that such good skill is wasted on something so trivial but I guess this card makes sense for someone of your realm, it will be very useful to get you out of a bind," Old Lorenzo showcased mixed feelings for the card. Hearing him continue to rant I couldn't help but say, "Shut up, and just compare the signature of the soul energy used to create the card, then you will know I am the one who created this card. Please stop being a sour loser and accept your loss already. I won the bet between us fair and square."

"..." Hearing my words, Lorenzo finally went silent and with a grim face, he returned the field negator card to me asking, "How were you able to fuse an array and an ability? I haven't given you materials on this yet."

The disgust Lorenzo felt for himself because he lost a wager to a high schooler washed away as the thought that there was an array formation genius in front of him replaced the idea that a teenager deceived him and got the best of his arrogance and pride. Right now Lorenzo felt as if this was the moment he was born for, to find this diamond in the rough, polish it, and cut it for the rest of the world to behold its greatness. If Lorenzo's demiG.o.d wife were to hear his inner thoughts right now she would say, 'You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you said the same thing when we first met.'

"When I was thinking of different means to break enemy array formations it came to me that s.p.a.ce Isolation array and the s.p.a.ce collapse ability together will make a good card to help me achieve my goal. After that, I just ran with it and you can see the result, this awesome card, field negator," though me avoiding answering old Lorenzo was pretty obvious with my words, I wanted it as such so that old Lorenzo would take a hint and not question me further. After a pause, I continued saying, "Old man, time for you to pay up. Now tell me what's the deal with me getting the highest score in the array master certification in the central array master a.s.sociation?"

"Yes, you won the wager fair and square. As promised now we are equals in the cooperation between us. As my equal, I have to let you know that I have urgent work at the temporary base, so I got to go, please understand. Will contact you later," Saying that Lorenzo wanted to skedaddle but paused and handed me a storage card he vanished in front of me yelling, "It contains your card creationist ID and there are some advance notes on array formation, be sure to learn them. It will increase your efficiency in fusing arrays with abilities."

I stood wide-eyed as I watched Lorenzo shamelessly come up with a lie and ran before answering why it was important for me to get the highest score in the array master certification in the central array master a.s.sociation. I was agape realizing that Lorenzo did make an oath to reveal everything to me but he never specified the date and time, even while being bloated with arrogance and pride, experienced Lorenzo did not forget to keep a hand before jumping in for the kill, just in case of an unknown. I should have known it was not easy to corner this old fox. But still, this should be enough to keep him off my back for a while. I would be underestimating the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d if I thought that this was the end of him.

"Old fool came through," I muttered while equipping the storage card given to me by old Lorenzo and sensing that it contained my card creationist ID card. With this, I can sell my services on the official card creationist a.s.sociation grimoire network. It was always good to have connections in high places thanks to that I was able to skip all the bureaucracy c.r.a.p of the card creationist a.s.sociation and acquire an ID without having to attend a certification test or other tedious processes. It was a pity that I got this card when I was about to leave Sky blossom city for the southern royal family's palace.

Asides from my card creationist ID card the storage trunk card handed to me by old Lorenzo contained his personal notes on advanced Array formation. It basically recorded advanced knowledge on how to fuse to different arrays or Array with Abilities and various techniques and methods involved to make the process more efficient than the one our predecessors.

Thanks to my soul pupils I was able to successfully fuse the soul pathways of the s.p.a.ce isolation array with the soul pathways of the s.p.a.ce collapse ability but with the techniques and methods recorded in old Lorenzo's notes I will be able to achieve the same with less time and effort, increasing my efficiency by three or four folds.
