chapter 2 Going to the capital

Katsu is a bit surprised by the information he just received. It seems the cards he held before he died now bring him this system. It is not like he is complaining; this will increase his chance to survive, but he is still shocked, especially by the Dark Magic Girl Card, because she is now floating upside down in front of his face showing a gentle smiler.

His hand reached in front of her and started giving her head pats and scratching behind her ears.

"M-master, Ahh! I'm very sensitive to-the-there, "she let out a cute expression and seemed to enjoy it a lot.

"Sorry, I am a bit shocked to meet you. It is like a dream come true". Hearing his honest words, flustered and embarrassed, the dark magician girl,

"It has been so long since I had a human interaction. More than decades have passed since. I can finally move around rather than be stuck in the card. I am very grateful so I don't mind master action"

Now he thinks about this girl in the anime who never really enjoys life but always appears in battle. Next time, maybe he will let her enjoy life a bit rather than fight every day.

"Dark magician girl, do you know any healing spells?"

"I only know black spells, master, maybe if I have the magic formula I can help you more master," she pouted, disappointed that she didn't know any other spells.

He remembers the system did give him that card, and by thinking of it, the card suddenly appears in his hand. He doesn't have any decks to put on, so he throws the card down to the ground. The card glows and slowly turns hallow, accompanied by a book floating in front of the Dark Magician Girl.

"Thanks, master, now let me see," she said, flipping through the book at high speed.

"Here it is."

She holds her wand. The dark magician girl's wand started to glow as green light covered all over Katsu's body. Feeling refreshed, he stands up, stretching his body. Even though his body is full of bruises, all the fractures in him are healed. [3500 Life Points] Verifying through this system, he regains his life points, but not fully. It might be because he still has a lot of bruises.

Suddenly, Sayo comes in with water and catches him in the act.

Her face turned into complete shock, almost dropping the water because she had checked him, and his bone was completely crushed. It was a miracle that he was still alive and now doing exercise as if nothing happened.

She touches his whole body, confirming that he is completely healed besides those bruises.

"Let's keep this a secret between us," Katsu said. Naturally, she didn't dwell on it too much if he didn't want to say it, it would be rude to force someone to tell their secret but it was quite a miracle to do something like this. From her interaction with him, he doesn't have any ill intentions.

Also tomorrow they may go to the capital which may be dangerous itself having someone like him is safer.

"Judging from your clothes you must be a traveler. Tomorrow we are going to the capital. Do you want to come with us"

He himself just arrived in this world he hadn't even made a plan yet but he at least knew her so it be safer to travel with them.

He accepts Sayo's invitation and she introduces him to Tatsumi and Ieyasu, her friends.

The two are easy to become friends, they always ask what he has seen from his travel. Naturally, he just arrived so he can only make up for the knowledge of this world to tell stories. They haven't been betraying yet so they easily believe everything but he isn't completely lying about creatures like Danger Beast, he did read through and has knowledge about even watching how they fight so he easily makes his own scenario.

Since arriving in this world, his physical ability seems to have been enhance. Even in winter, he doesn't feel too cold and his reaction ability has gotten better.

Receiving a blanket, he sleeps near the two boys, but they don't know that there is a spirit sleeping peacefully next to Katsu, hugging the cute girl. He is truly lucky to be able to have this cute spirit with him. She didn't mind close contact. Maybe because of her carefree nature and loneliness, she liked having people near her.

After they woke up, they ventured to the capital, leaving the village. The road is quite boring, but luckily Katsu has Ieyasu, Sayo, and Tatsumi to talk to on his road, or he will be bored as hell, and at night he talks to his spirit. Today he wants to test out his card, but he has to wait for all of them to sleep before sneaking out for training purposes. He finds a group of bears and checks the combat [200Atk, 200 Def]

Standing in front of a group of bears, he takes out the monster card Vorse Raider and tries to equip it. To his surprise, the card in his hand enters his chest. Then he feels his connection to the card but the wicked's blood lust is overwhelming him, and he might be consumed if it weren't for his military training and work as a police officer.

After equipping the card, his mind is flooded with information on how he can summon the axe bears of this monster. Even the combat skills and knowledge of the weapon went into him. Seeing one of the bears rush to him, an axe bear appears in his hand like particles. With one swing, the bear's head gets cut off. All the blood sprays into him, but it only makes him more violent. As he rushes to the next bear, his attack becomes crueler. Rather than killing them in a single hit, he cuts a part of their body, leaving them no chance to defend. Until there are no bears left to kill, the card automatically injects out of him and disappears in the graveyard in his mind.

"That was dangerous," he said, breathing heavily. He underestimated the side effects and nearly got killed. He notes to himself next time he needs to train his mental state more before thinking of consuming or even equipping this card to gain its skill. At least he gained some points from the bears [200 points]. When he checked the shop, he almost choked because the price of the cheapest Monster card was 2000 points. Don't talk about the spell cards and trap cards. Their weakest effect is 10,000 points.

If he has enough points, he may try to open a pack that is worth 100,000 points. If he is lucky, he will profit more.

Luckily, he didn't bring the Dark Magic Girl. I don't want her to be frightened seeing him like this. He signs, trying to see if there is a river nearby to wash all of this blood away.
