Ingesting the Silver Milk Powder Anna felt nothing at first because she was a Card Emperor and the advantages brought by silver milk powder was redundant to her current realm but with the high-level realm came absolute control over her bodily functions and inner soul energy which allowed her to notice the effect of the silver milk powder, it indeed excited her soul energy and active soul control but this boost by silver milk powder was nothing to her high active soul control if not for Anna meticulously observing and searching for any sign of change in her soul she would have missed it.

Upon discovering the small sign of anomaly Anna ingested a handful of the silver milk powder to confirm what she felt earlier, with consumption of a large quant.i.ty the anomaly became obvious. There was a sign of silver milk powder positively affecting her active soul control but to her, the effect brought by the silver milk powder was superfluous. But still, her eyes shone brilliantly as if she had been enlightened or found a chance to change her destiny.

Though the Silver milk Powder was useless to Anna she realized the infinite wealth and power it would bring to anyone who could control its supply and production. With this powder, she could convert an army of mortals into an army of card apprentices within a year. Realising what Elliott had claimed was true Anna glanced at the person who made this possible, a high schooler. To think which the academicians of the top 10 universities could not achieve over centuries with all that resource and advanced knowledge at their disposal, this high schooler who was not even two decades old had achieved it with limited resources and knowledge in a rundown city deemed unfit and abandoned by the government and other powers.

Feeling Card Emperor’s hot gaze scan me from head to toe I was uncomfortable but I could not voice out my discomfort because I was weak. Noticing my discomfort the Card Emperor coughed and finally returned to normal and said, “Congrats Master Wyatt you have successfully solved the problem which the government and the top 10 universities were trying to solve over centuries. Your achievement has no praise which I cannot applaud you with. If I may, Master Wyatt could you show me the creation process of this Silver milk powder.”

This was the power of an inventor and scientist. So what if I am weak no matter how strong the card emperor was she could not reproduce or replicate something like silver milk powder. The Silver milk powder has gained me the acknowledgement of the card emperor and now even she had to erase the scorn and disgust she had in her eyes when she arrived with Elliott and call me Master even though I was several realms weaker than her and several decades younger than her. But I did not let her flattery get to my head and fool me,

“Your eminence…”

“No need for honorifics Master Wyatt… your achievement has earned you the right to call me by my name… please call me Anna.” The Card Emperor interrupted me and asked me to drop the honorifics and call her by her name. I was more than happy to oblige with here request.

“Anna, let’s not be hasty. I believe you must have read the paper I have shared with Elliott. Then you must know Silver milk is an absolute ingredient in the creation of silver milk powder, I have none on me right now. So I cannot demonstrate to you the production of the Silver milk powder.” I would be stupid to carry Silver milk or the salts extracted from it on me because with that in her possession Anna can with enough time find the D-rank Silver beach gate dungeon. I deliberately left out the part of extracting salts from silver milk and credited the growth of the microbes to the silver milk, this way they would not know that silver milk is actually ocean water. If they knew that silver milk is ocean water with enough time and trial and error method along with the process of elimination, Anna and her cronies could easily discern that the poisonous ocean water in the D-rank silver beach gate dungeon is the silver milk I have mentioned in the paper.

I am sure that right now in her mind Anna is making dozens of plans to get all the information regarding the ingredients and production of the silver milk powder and then dispose of me and Elliott. Though Elliott wanted to find me a big backer to keep out the hyenas, this successfully solved the problem of the hyenas but brought a tiger inside. Instead of giving up and blaming Elliott or begging for our Life, I decided to negotiate while I still had the upper hand.

“So, why don’t we go find the ingredients? with me here It should be easy right?” Said Anna as her eyes shone in brilliance, hearing I did not have the key ingredient and could not perform a demonstration Anna was not disappointed instead overjoyed and offered to help find the key ingredients. This way she can know where to find the ingredients and eliminate the need to keep me and Elliott alive.

“Wyatt I am sorry it looks like I brought our doom upon us.” Anna could not be more obvious. Even Elliott, who was charmed by her for some reason, finally snapped out of it and realized the grave mistake he had made. To kill the rats he poisoned his corps, this was the stupidest thing he had ever done. Turning to me Elliott knelt and sincerely apologised. Elliott realised that even though he got rid of his disease he had contracted something much worse which led to his downfall, douchery. The old Elliott even though wheelchair ridden would never made such a rookie mistake.

Seeing Elliott’s action Anna laughed not caring about her plans having been seen through. With her power, she did not have to use any trickery but it saved her some time and honestly she enjoyed all the drama.

“Good, looks like you guys are not dumb. Elliott honey, don’t take this personally. I enjoyed our sleepover especially that part where your thing starts spinning like a drill machine. I enjoyed it so much that I planned on adding you to my collection of toys. But fate has other plans… Do not blame me, blame the circ.u.mstances for putting you in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Hearing Anna I looked at Elliott and shook my head. This dimwit screwed everything I have built just because he could not control his urges. Feeling my gaze Elliott looked away in shame. Elliot knew he went overboard with his newfound freedom which now costs him his life.
