Bringing Culture to a Different World

u don’t want to open the new card packs?”

When Cheryl asked that question, Messai started hesitating.
She looked straight at the defected inquisitor for a couple long seconds…

“If you don’t want to do it, I’ll open them myself.”

Cheryl looked at the determined expression on the female knight and sighed.
Skillfully, she opened up Messai’s card storage crystal with the intention of opening up the remaining card packs in her storage crystal.

At this moment, Messai started wavering.
In a flash, she arrived beside Cheryl and held her wrist.

“Consider it my… departure ceremony,” said Messai.

Cheryl returned the card packs to the female knight.
When Messai saw the number ‘3’ on the card packs, she looked to Cheryl with a confused expression.

“I remember… that the amount of money I’ve left you is enough to purchase over sixty card packs?”

“Over a hundred and seventy to be exact.
You have no idea… after you left, the card packs went on a temporary discount of fifty percent.
When that ‘50%’ green symbol appeared, people from practically the entire street crowded this tavern.
You have no idea how difficult it was for me to purchase a hundred and seventy card packs,” said Cheryl.

“Cheryl, you… you used them all to purchase card packs?”

Messai remembered that the amount of wealth she left to Cheryl was a major sum.
At least, it was a major sum for her, a knight with a meager salary.

Messai had thought that Cheryl would spend a portion of that money to support herself.
But, it turned out that was not the case at all.

“There’s nothing that I can do about that! It’s fifty percent off! Fifty percent! With three gold coins, you can purchase double the amount of card packs… If I miss an opportunity like this, there might not be another one in the future.
Granted, I had no choice but to eat plain vegetables for breakfast every morning because of that,” said Cheryl.

Messai did not say anything toward this defector inquisitor’s behavior of ‘chopping off her own hands.’ She pointed to the singular digit on the card packs, “Then, what happened to the one hundred plus ‘Goblins vs Gnomes’ card packs you spoke of?”

“I’ve opened them all!” said Cheryl with a wide smile, “Got seven legendaries.”

“…”

Perhaps Messai really should capture this defector inquisitor and send her back to the Holy City.

But, that thought only lasted for a moment in Messai’s head before her finger moved to tap at the remaining three card packs.

Messai didn’t believe that she would be able to open up any good cards.
After all, her luck in Hearthstone was not that great.
That was true even for card packs.
Generally speaking, she would only be able to open a legendary per thirty card packs.

Messai planned to completely quit Hearthstone after opening the three card packs.
As she would be accompanying the saintess as a knight, she would have no time to be engrossed in a game created by a demon.

The outcome of her card packs was as she anticipated.
The first two card packs only gave her commons and rares.
There were no epics to be seen at all.

When Messai tapped at the third card pack to open it, a miracle occurred.
A burst of orange light shined before her eyes.

“Legendary!” Cheryl cheered beside Messai.
“It’s even Doctor Boom, the strongest legendary in ‘Goblins vs Gnomes!’ Messai, I knew that you would’ve accumulated your luck by not touching Hearthstone for so long!”

As Messai looked at the floating legendary card, she once again grew silent.
