I'm doing abstract animation

Wouldn't Zi'ang be able to eat whatever he wanted back then, without having to pay?!

Just thinking about that scene makes her grin like an idiot.

Yuuki frowned, reached out and smacked her on the forehead: "Listen carefully, you idiot, you'll be responsible for explaining this to the people behind you later!"

"Huh?" Yui Yuigahama winced and clutched her forehead, pointing at herself with some uncertainty. "Me? Me?"

"Of course, otherwise it would be too troublesome for me to explain every time."

Yuuki looked at her speechlessly: "You're the first person I chose, you should at least share the burden with me, you jerk!"

“Okay then…” Yui Yuigahama nodded, but there was still some uncertainty on her face.

"Alright, now I'll explain the next item to you: special abilities."

Yuki's face turned serious.

"To be honest, this is too early for you, but I thought it would be better to tell you sooner rather than later, so that you don't use some strange cards indiscriminately in the future."

"Special abilities are usually strange and unusual. Some are very strong, some are very weak, but they are usually very strange and have names that are not meaningful. So if you get some cards with no clear meaning, remember to notify me as soon as possible."

"By the way, you can now check the names of the cards. Just concentrate and observe them carefully."

"That's basically it for this update... cough cough, basically all you need to remember, got it?"

That was close! We almost gave ourselves away, but this guy is too dense to notice!

Seeing Yui Yuigahama's eyes welling up with tears, Yuki Ryo breathed a sigh of relief.

"Next, you will focus your attention on creating cards."

All of the above were minor skirmishes; what follows is the main event, the most crucial step in the system he designed.

Yui Yuigahama, feeling dizzy, followed his instructions.

Suddenly, a strange device appeared before her eyes.

The machine is shaped like an inverted three-legged cauldron, with three stone pillars distributed in three directions. Each pillar has a transparent crystal ball at its top, and the base of the three pillars is intertwined to form a stone frame for an empty card.

"I designed this card-making machine specifically to help you create cards more effectively."

Patting the card-generating machine, Liu Zuo smiled; it was his masterpiece.

The creation of cards is very complicated. First, you need to understand the process of materializing energy into blank cards. Second, you need to learn how to mobilize energy and operate it precisely. He spent three whole years learning just this process.

Only with blank cards can you capture various ability items to form all sorts of original cards.

If new cards are created manually, it requires an even deeper understanding of the principles behind the items or abilities incorporated into the cards...

Don't be fooled by how easily he turned the spider into a card with a single slash; in reality, he had to temporarily mobilize energy to create a new blank card to capture it. It took him a year to master this process...

It can only be said that behind every cool move lies untold hard work and practice...

Volume 1: Chapter 24 Card Making

The process of creating cards is extremely troublesome. If I were to teach them one by one, I feel that I might be trapped in this world for the rest of my life.

So he came up with a way to fix the card-making process and design it as a simple card-making machine, where users only need to inject energy.

And so the card-making machine was hastily born.

"Now, follow my instructions to make your first card."

Seeing the curious Yui Yuigahama, Yuuki Risa began to give orders.

"Place your hand on the crystal ball in the middle."

Yui Yuigahama obediently placed her hand on the transparent crystal ball, and her eyes widened immediately.

She saw a line of words appear before her eyes.

(Should we create cards?)

"Does a line of text appear before your eyes?"

At the same time, Yuki's voice also rang out.

She nodded.

"Silently confirm in your heart."

Yui Yuigahama silently made up her mind.

Suddenly she felt a strange force acting on her, and her strength seemed to be continuously drained away.

Her expression changed, and she instinctively tried to pull her hand away.

"Don't panic, that's the energy needed to create cards. You can feel this sensation; you'll experience this every time you use cards in the future."

Yuki's calm voice dispelled Yui's thought of withdrawing her hand, and she gritted her teeth to endure the emptiness of having her energy drained from her body.

Fortunately, the energy required to create blank cards is very small, so she only drew half of them before stopping.

Even if it was only half, it was enough to make Yui Yuigahama feel weak all over, and her stomach began to feel intensely hungry.

But Yui Yuigahama couldn't care less about any of that at that moment, her eyes shining as she stared at the blank card in the middle slot.

"These are the cards I created..."

Yuki reached out and took it down, handing it to her: "This is the basic blank card, the origin of all cards. Only with it can you create subsequent cards."

Yui Yuigahama held the blank card, a sense of pride inexplicably rising within her.

We often don't cherish what others give us; we only truly value what we receive after we've experienced the effort involved.

"What's next?"

She spoke somewhat impatiently.

"Blank cards have the ability to capture, but this is mostly only for abilities in other dimensions. If you want to make your own cards, you need to have the item you want to make the card for. First, you put the card into the card slot in the middle."

Yui Yuigahama puts the card back into the card slot.

"Then think about what kind of card you want to create. Note that each card can only be combined with a maximum of three items and abilities, but the more abilities or items you add, the more energy the creation process requires."

"At your current energy level, you can only integrate one at most, and it can't be a supernatural item or ability, otherwise you will be drained."

"Being drained of energy is equivalent to death, so remember to act within your limits."

Yuki was genuinely trying to teach her, explaining things to her in detail and giving her warnings.

In his view, his mission required them to complete it, and after completing the mission, he was destined to leave this world and would never have any further contact with them.

Consider it a parting gift.

That's the truth.

After thinking for a moment, Yui Yuigahama took off a heart-shaped necklace from her neck.

"Is this okay?"

Yuki nodded: "Okay, place the necklace on top of the crystal ball."

Yui Yuigahama did as she was told, and a line of text immediately appeared before her eyes again.

(Should we incorporate "Yui Yuigahama's necklace"?)

"Note that the items or abilities you incorporate into the cards will be analyzed by the system. If it is a private item, it is recommended that you incorporate it when you are alone."

Yui Yuigahama shook her head, looking at the necklace in her hand: "It's nothing, it's just a necklace."

Yuki raised an eyebrow. "If you say it's nothing, then it's nothing. Anyway, I won't be the one who's embarrassed later."

Yui Yuigahama confirmed the fusion, and that feeling of detachment resurfaced, but this time it was quick, probably because the necklace was too small.

A flash of white light, and the necklace in her hand disappeared, while the necklace's image appeared on the blank card.

"Success!"

Yui Yuigahama excitedly picked up the card, and then a line of text appeared before her eyes.

Card Name: Yui Yuigahama's Necklace

Description: When Yui Yuigahama was in the second year of junior high school, she had a conflict with her best friend. She originally wanted to give this as an apology gift to her friend, but her friend never spoke to her again until graduation. Embarrassed, Yui Yuigahama had no choice but to wear it herself.

Yui Yuigahama: "…………"

Has the box been opened?

"Whoa!" Yuuki leaned in, her face full of gossip: "You started dating in middle school, Haki, you rascal..."

"It's not a relationship!"

Yui Yuigahama rolled her eyes, then looked at the card in her hand with a touch of reminiscence: "It was a friend. It's been two years already. Thinking about it now, I really miss it. I wonder how Eriri is doing..."

Yuuki looked at her with surprise: "I didn't expect you to be so resilient. Your dark history has been dug up, yet you can still act like nothing happened."

"It's okay, if it's Yuuki-kun."

Yui Yuigahama smiled happily, her smile incredibly radiant.

Yuuki looked doubtful: "Really? Didn't you see the small print below?"

"Huh?" Yui Yuigahama was taken aback: "Is there more down there?"

She quickly looked at the very bottom of the text and sure enough, there was another line of small print.

Note: Although this necklace is not valuable, it embodies Yui Yuigahama's longing and guilt towards her friend. She cherishes it very much, and even though it accidentally fell into the toilet twice, she insisted on wearing it.

"........."

Yui Yuigahama was completely dumbfounded.

Yuuki Riko, as if out of nowhere, leaned close and asked with a curious look, "I don't mean anything by it, I'm just genuinely curious, back then... were you the older or younger one?"

"Aaaaaah, stop talking! Stop talking! Forget it, forget it! Forget it, you bastard!!!"

........................

After a chaotic scene of chickens and dogs jumping around, Yuuki took Yui Yuigahama home. She was quite exhausted from the day, so much so that she couldn't even walk after the playful fight and he had to carry her home.

After explaining how to use and retrieve the cards on the way, his task for the day was complete.

"Aren't you going in for a bit?"

At Yui Yuigahama's doorstep, she extended an invitation to him once again.

"No, I'm afraid you'll poison my tea."

Yuki shook his head honestly.

Yui Yuigahama's face darkened, and she ignored him, slamming the door shut.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and Yuuki Risa shivered inexplicably.

"Strange, I'm already invincible, so why am I suddenly shivering for no reason?"

He turned and walked towards his residence, looking around with some suspicion.

Nothing unusual.

"Miura Yumiko probably won't be out until tomorrow, so there's no fun to see if we go now."

He stroked his chin thoughtfully, "How about we go check out that arcade they mentioned?"

For the past ten years, he had been constantly busy, and now that he was suddenly able to relax, he felt a little out of sorts. At school, he would idly scroll through his phone using telekinesis, but the entertainment industry in this world was not very developed. The TV dramas were full of bizarre and melodramatic plots, and the games were mostly meaningless. The only thing he could do with his phone using telekinesis was to read the news... It was much better to be busy.

But when he heard Miura Yumiko and the others mention a large arcade in Chiba, he immediately became very interested.

No kidding, he was once known as the king of the arcade!

Without hesitation, he began to use his telekinesis to sense things, and invisible fluctuations spread rapidly outwards from him.

"I remember it was called something like 'state'... huh?"

Suddenly, a familiar face appeared in his mind's eye.

He immediately became curious.

"Why would she be here at this hour?"

It's 8:05 PM now. Although it's not late, most high school students are already obediently staying at home at this time.
