My anime-style card deck is fine!

"Um……"

Fanxing was about shoulder height from Amon. She stood there blankly in front of Amon, as if she was thinking about how to speak. After a while, she slowly said, "Well, I am Fanxing... I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Wait for me?" Amon felt a little awkward talking to this person.

Her tone was too slow, and she always seemed like she was about to suddenly die. Amon started to worry that if he got too close to her, he might be completely taken advantage of.

"Yes, someone told me to wait for you..."

The stars continued their leisurely stroll, their eyes vacant: "But you're not up ahead, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The girl's tone was slightly resentful.

For some reason, this made Amon find it rather amusing.

Although Fanxing didn't explain clearly, Amon could roughly guess that she probably thought Amon would immediately rise to the top and become a first-tier player, so she quickly cleared the game at the beginning. However, after becoming number one, she found that Amon was still slowly doing something at the back door.

So we waited here.

As a result, he was harassed by the dragon every now and then, and had no choice but to 'retaliate'...

"What are you waiting for me to do?"

However, compared to the girl's experience, Amon was more curious about why Fanxing wanted to find him: "If it's a card collaboration, then please forgive me for refusing. I already have a partner and have no intention of changing."

"It's not a collaboration."

"If it's not cooperation, then what is it? I don't think I have anything worth waiting for." Although Amon wasn't being self-deprecating, it was indeed the truth.

Strength? Amon is only three stars, which is just the beginning of his elite status.

There are tons of Samsung card masters out there. Even those candidates who were forced to play minor roles in the last round, weren't they all top-tier Samsung card masters?

As for card production? No matter how efficient Amon is, he's still just one person.

It's nowhere near as efficient as those assembly line card manufacturing factories, and Amon wouldn't have to be reduced to tightening screws.

Amon didn't know what else he could attract besides the cards he made that would make Fanxing wait for him here, but just as Amon said, there was no better partner than the military preparing for the national team exam.

Countless card manufacturing companies have hoped to establish connections with the military, but Amon has taken it all in one go!

Of course, it's impossible to abandon cooperation with the military for the sake of the stars.

"It's not a collaboration."

Niu Fanxing repeated it again, then looked at Amon blankly, lowered her head and thought carefully for a while, before clapping her hands with a look of sudden realization: "I remember!"

So you've already forgotten why you contacted me in the first place?

Amon thought to himself, "This is what I'm complaining about."

“I’m here to seduce you,” Fanxing said.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Brain, universe, galaxy, math problems...

A jumble of random thoughts surfaced in his mind and then disappeared. Amon silently stared at Fanxing, who also stared blankly at him.

Finally, Amon couldn't help but twitch his lips, and all the words in his heart were reduced to a single, simple word:

"what?!"

……

"To put it simply, your parents know my father, and you and I happen to be in the same exam room, so I invited you to meet me, right?"

Amon briefly inquired about the situation.

"It's seduction."

The Path of Stars.

"That old man, despite his very open-minded lifestyle, I never expected him to have a hobby of matchmaking." Ignoring Fanxing's words, Amon went straight to the point: "In short, it's like my father casually mentioned power to your parents during dinner, and they agreed, so they arranged for you to come on a blind date with me..."

Amon clearly put a lot of effort into using the word "blind date".

It's as if they're emphasizing something.

“It’s seduction!” Fanxing emphasized.

"Don't mention that word again!" Amon couldn't help but rub her forehead. "You're supposed to be a young lady from a wealthy family, at the very least it should be an arranged marriage or a blind date or something like that. How did it become seduction in your mouth!"

"It was definitely seduction."

Fanxing still had that drowsy look in her eyes, her expression unreadable: "That's what my father said."

"...What were your father's exact words?"

"That kid is obviously not simple. I happen to know your Uncle Wu, and since you and that kid are in the same exam hall, why don't you go and seduce him, daughter? If you succeed, I'll never have to worry about you again!"

Fanxing suddenly became rough in tone, her voice quickened and became off-key, and she even gave Amon a thumbs up.

After the performance, he reverted to his previous blank expression: "...That's it."

"It's seduction."

Then she emphasized it again.

“…” Amon was truly speechless. Seriously, are all parents this irresponsible at this age?

He thought his father was invincible, but he never expected that he would have an opponent!

"What about your mother? Didn't she say what to write?"

Amon looked at the stars and casually asked a question.

“My mother didn’t know about this.” Fanxing paused after speaking, “She should know now. My mother cares about me a lot.”

"..."

Amon silently mourned for Fanxing's father, but thinking of the guy's unreliability, he felt it was too early to offer condolences, so he decided to just spit on him before leaving...

At this point, Amon had no interest in gathering any more information about Fanxing.

Anyway, this venue can't be that big.

Arcanine's back is quite comfortable; if he keeps searching, he'll eventually find other guardian minions—but if he continues to spend time with that woman, Amon feels he'll lose something.

For example, integrity, chastity, character, personality, morality... these are the things that make us human.

“I understand the general situation. In short, let me decline your father’s offer.” Amon stood up, adopting a businesslike expression, and raised his hand: “That’s all. I still have exams to take. See you all again sometime!”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

But she was stopped, and Fanxing looked at her innocent, bewildered eyes: "Are you going to abandon me?"

"...At most, it's just not accepting advances, ptooey! I misspoke, it's just a failed blind date, how did it come down to being dumped?" Amon was even more speechless.

Trying to break free, but failing.

The stars gripped his arm with unexpected strength, as if a star map were fixed firmly in the sky.

And Amon was just like that green dragon from before, unable to break free no matter what he did.

"It's abandonment."

Fanxing emphasized, "My mother said that when a man abandons a woman, that behavior is called abandonment."

"...What else did your mother say?"

"Never let a man abandon you!" Fanxing's tone became resolute, then returned to her previous state: "That's what Mother said."

"I don't think that's what your mother meant."

"That's what it means."

Fanxing became serious instead: "I can't be wrong."

"..."

Amon shook his hand, but the girl was so light that she was thrown around in the air.

Once he realized he really couldn't break free, Amon could only sigh helplessly, "Wait, don't you have an exam? You just shot down that dragon, didn't you?"

"It doesn't matter."

Fanxing stated that she was not interested in the exam results.

She never takes exams, and when she does, she always gets full marks, so she doesn't care about getting even one or two points.

After struggling for a while, realizing he couldn't do anything to this somewhat naive girl, Amon could only carry her to the door that had been neglected for so long and touch the door with the star in his hand.

The number of levels in Starry Night increases by 1, and the score increases by 1.

However, the girl's expression remained unmoved; she simply clung to Amon relentlessly.

Amon was convinced.

In the end, they could only carry the starry sky up the mountain on the back of the Arcanine. Fortunately, the Arcanine's back was wide enough that it could accommodate not only one more slender girl, but even two more.

Since Amon didn't intend to drive her away, Fanxing let go of her hand.

Then he told Amon some information that he had always been very interested in.

—How to attract the gatekeeper's followers.

"No need to attract them, just stay in one place and they'll come to you on their own," said Fanxing slowly after climbing up the back of the Growlithe.

"The previous dragons also came by themselves in this way, because they happened to be available."

"Huh?!" Amon was stunned for a moment.

Amon didn't seem to care much about how Starlight had so easily defeated a six-star follower.

After all, he can do it too.

But this news...
