The Card Apprentice

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world. Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice. The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos – human and nonhuman – into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more. Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

A Bitter Battle

編集者: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Card artisans really hated that kind of powerful creature, since they were really hard to deal with. The spinulosa wheel that the brilliant apes threw had terrifying power which could even smash through a three-star energy cloak card. Even if you were grazed by it, if it didn't kill you it would disable you. The brilliant ape had a very strong territorial sense, and if any other wild beast were to enter their territory, they would become powerfully aggressive.

Failure!

Failure!

Another failure!

Chen Mu couldn't quite adjust the frequency to where he could enter the state of breath control.

Every step taken by the apes had a lot of power, and when they stepped on the ground Chen Mu could feel it shake. They were getting closer and closer to where he was! Chen Mu forced himself to remain calm as he carefully brought the frequency of the vibrations to what was specifically required to enter the state of breath control.
