Card collector from different worlds

002 To do research in town

Kinosuke picked up one card.

It's what came out of the black purple smoke.

If I were to believe what I saw with my eyes, I think that little creature like that gremlin turned into a card.

But can that happen?

... it's like some kind of game world.

The card that appeared instead of the body.

Picking it up and looking at it, the relief of the opponent you just defeated is carved, and it says [Lesser Goblin LV1].

After all, it appears to have appeared in place of the creature just now.

Because it is a lesser goblin, it would mean a lower species of goblin.

So Kiyonosuke realized.

That this card is not written in Japanese.

"... but I can read why!

The language written on the card is not Japanese, but I can understand the meaning properly when I follow the letters with my eyes.

Kinosuke breathed slowly and exhaled.

I inhaled my breath louder again.

"What the heck?!

I exclaimed.

This is confusing.

Obviously, it's weird.

- Like mastering a foreign language without knowing it?

That can't be right.

Let's just calm down and think about it.

A strange letter was written on the card, but if I followed it with my eyes, I could understand it as Japanese.

I mean, it feels like it was automatically converted into Japanese in my brain.

"... what do you mean?

The mystery only deepens, but standing here doesn't solve anything.

Anyway, let's find someone we know.

Behind us is the sea, this is the sandy beach.

After all, the only way out of where people are is through the woods in front of them.

Kim Noisuke never sets foot in the woods.

Then the same men came out with straw.

"Was his name Lesser Goblin LV1? No... Lesser Goblin is the name, LV1 is the strength?

Asking how things are, they still attack from the other side.

Even so, he is the only opponent with a back length up to about a knee.

Just like last time, knock it down with a kick.

Then everyone turned the body into a card with the smoke.

It's not a mistake to see.

To be sure, the creature has turned into a card.

"Here's the specification for the game, so you're going to believe it."

There is no threat to this extent of the opponent.

He's an opponent the size of a cat, and he's weak enough to die from a kicking blow.

Then he thought it would be okay to go further, and Kim Noisuke goes further.

I don't know if there should be any noise through the woods or if I feel signs or smells again, but Lesser Goblin attacked me quite often.

By the time he got out of the woods, Kinosuke had about 20 cards in his hand for convenience.

I pocketed it and thought about it.

What the hell is this situation?

Let's analyze it calmly again.

-The body was attacked by a monster that turns into a card.

-l could read a language that's written on my card that I've never even seen.

From the above two events, I'm starting to feel that Kinosuke is either out of his mind or that this isn't the world that Kinosuke knows about.

Hopefully, the latter would be more appreciated as Kim Noisuke.

"There's a road, which means there's a town or a village. It's full of characters that can be read for some reason, corpses that change into cards and mysteries, and I'll have to go and gather information."

I feel like I was flown to another world somewhere by a clap that fell into the ocean on a ferry.

Let's assume so.

Or I just think so.

Or I feel... No, let's not think about it.

I didn't need to walk much longer and soon I saw the town.

It's not surrounded by high walls...... it's a creation that feels like there were more fields and houses as I walked and when I realized it was all over town.

"If you're in a fantasy world, you can stand up as a gatekeeper or something and say welcome to the town of OO..."

The town sign is written in the same riddle, but it can be read by Kinosuke.

"Eight hundred shops, shoe shops, repair shops... you can read it without a problem, this is it"

People's conversations could also be understood without problems if their ears were clear.

He doesn't have a problem with his language skills.

If I can't communicate, I'll pack it that way.

In the meantime, that seems to have been avoided.

Kinosuke found a sign that said 'Cardshop'.

The sticker at the entrance reads: 'Expensive purchase, auction agent also available'.

"I wonder if a card shop means they can buy this card they got too"

All Kiyonosuke without a sentence has is a card dropped by an earlier monster.

Since it is a purchase, could you exchange the card for cash?

Even if you weren't, you could ask about the 20 cards in your hand.

I think I might know something here.

Kinosuke entered the store.

It's narrow and dim in the shop.

The partitions are lined up, and the clerk is standing in one of them.

It's like a bank reception.

Kim Noisuke headed for one of them.

"Welcome. What can I do for you today?

"Buy cards…"

Kiyonosuke put out 20 cards out of his pocket.

"I will confirm. You have 1 piece of LV1 silver and 19 pieces of bronze. You still have one point on silver. Are you sure you want to exchange this one?

…… Oh, yes. Please. "

I don't know, but I snorted.

"Exchange rate will be 100,000 al for 1 point"

What is the exchange rate? I wanted to hear it, but Kiyonosuke just snorted in silence.

There was only one card of different colors, but that still seemed to be a rare card.

"This silver card still has Al, so the LV1 will be 200 Al in 20 pieces conversion. Including one point on the silver card, it will total 100,000 Al."

Is that a lot? That's a lot, isn't it?

I don't know.

"Do you want the payment to be either transcribed to your card or chipped?

There was another word I didn't know.

I can tell Al is somehow a unit of money, but I don't know what a transcription is on a card.

I've sold all 20 cards in my hand, so I don't even have one card to transcribe it.

"... with chips"

The receptionist's sister widened her eyes a little.

Please wait a moment.

He went back to the back to get me a chip.

The fact that we don't have a chip means that few people get a chip to buy a card.

Normally I would choose something called transcription.

It was given to two small coins that cost 100 and a large coin that said 100,000. I guess this is 100,000 Al.

"Thank you"

"Oh, take it!

"... Yes?

Your sister seems suspicious.

"Well, I'm new to this town... so where the library is, you know?

"If it's a library, there's a red building on the streets of Fountain Square. That's the ground floor there."

"... thanks"

"You're welcome. When you save your card, please come back"

Your sister dropped you off, and Kiyonosuke left the card store.

Good, looks like there's a library.

If you can't read and write, you can gather information there.

And unexpectedly? Looks like we got a lot of money.

Although I don't know how much 100,000 Al...... is worth.

"This is the library..."

The location of the library was immediately known.

But it's only a name for a library, and there's only five bookshelves and a long one on the wall.

Something just looks like a rest stop or nursery anymore.

Besides, the only people in this room are dead old men and little children.

Kim Noisuke took a book close to her and opened it.

"Oh, I can read"

I thought it would be okay, but I was also slightly anxious.

But that worry also seemed worrisome. Kinosuke was impressed that books in this world could be read without difficulty.

What Kim Noisuke took was like a children's book, and it said about the formation of this world.

Here's a summary of the children's book.

This is a world made by the God of cards, and all my daily life has been made very convenient by the use of cards. God of cards listened to people's wishes and made more and more new cards and people were very happy.

One time, someone told the god of cards.

"The world is certainly convenient and comfortable. But it's not stimulating enough. I want exciting adventures and exciting fights."

God of cards, listening to the person's wishes, made the demonic cardy to be carded.

That led many people to hunt cards and get cards.

Another time, someone said.

"I want you to be able to use the cards you got from Cardy"

God of cards altered the world so that cards could be used as currency.

Until then, they carried heavy gold and silver coins, but people were greatly pleased because they were to be able to serve currency on cards.

And people hunted cardies.

People hunted many cardies according to their abilities and the world developed further.

Plus someone said.

"Because it's a rare card, I want some perks"

Rare cards that exit when hunting for cards, which were held as a sign of luck, were themselves the same as others.

Now the god of cards has made "Between Whites" and put on various perks depending on the points of the rare cards.

By doing so, people dreamed of a day when they would collect rare cards, accumulate points, and get privileges in "Between Whites".

People's cardi hunting grew more prosperous.

One day after a long time, the word of God on the card echoed in the heads of all the inhabitants of the world.

"Who stole the card from the Temple of Cards! I will punish him immediately and heavenly!

That was a horrible voice.

God of cards has always been, fulfilling people's wishes.

I made a number of cards to fulfill my small wishes and gave them to people.

Someone abused it to combine a bunch of little wishes and finally stole the "Whatever's Wishing Card" in the Temple of Cards.

The stolen cards have been lost from this world.

The god of cards is gone to look for it too.

At the same time, all the cards to fulfill my little wishes are gone.

God of cards says he's still looking for stolen cards.

And the god of cards still won't come back.

That's how the story was closed.
