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 Mishap

編集者: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Taking just an evening, Copper produced the production plan. He spent a whole morning introducing it to Chen Mu, and then went out the door to the low-grade fantasy card club. When Chen Mu asked if he wanted him to come along, Copper directly gave him a blank look.

Being alone in the house, Chen Mu began his daily training, and finished it all without any urgency; from the exercise gymnastics to the perceptual training.

As compared to perception whose improvements didn't manifest themselves, doing the gymnastic exercises made his body look better and better. While there wasn't any increase to his muscle mass, the toughening of his sinews built up a lot of power, and his excellent flexibility made his moves nimbler.
