Chapter 409 Kaka
Chapter 409 Kaka
The high-temperature world hasn't undergone as many changes as Yu Yang's world, but both worlds are quite satisfied with their exchange.
After helping readers in both worlds, Lin Liuyi started a new story.
This time, she wrote about fleeing famine.
Having seen so much of the world, Lin Liuyi has given his protagonist all sorts of cheat codes this time, with the main goal of ensuring that his characters never suffer.
After completing the task in one go, the system dutifully went on to distribute the new article.
At this moment, a major event is taking place in the new world.
Princess Kaka placed her palm on the cold trial stone and took a deep breath.
Hundreds of eyes were fixed on her in the palace hall. The candlelight flickered under the towering dome inlaid with starlight stones, casting her long and lonely shadow.
"Begin, Kaka." The king's voice came from the throne, carrying an unquestionable majesty.
Today is her eighteenth name day, and also the day of the card master's coming-of-age ceremony.
In the Card Kingdom, every noble's son must demonstrate his ability to resonate with the cards on this day.
Kaka could feel the three basic cards in the card box at her waist vibrating slightly, as if in response to her accelerated heartbeat.
“Don’t be nervous, Your Highness,” Lady Irene, the chief card strategist of the court, gently reassured her, holding a recording crystal in her hand. “Just like we practiced.”
Kaka nodded, his fingertips lightly touching the card box.
The first card automatically slid into her palm—an ordinary "Ripple of Water".
She closed her eyes and felt the energy flowing within the cards.
Unlike others, Kaka has been able to hear the "voice" of cards since he was a child.
At this moment, the water-attribute card is humming a melody like a stream to her.
“Appear,” she murmured.
The card transformed into a blue light in her palm, and a stream of clear water appeared out of thin air, forming a swirling vortex around her, eventually condensing into a water mirror that floated in the air.
Exclamations of admiration rang out from the audience; Water Mirror Summoning was a skill that only advanced card masters could master.
The second picture is "entwined with vines".
As soon as Kaka touched the card, a sharp pain shot through his fingertips.
The card was resisting her—something that had never happened before. A chaotic whisper emanated from the card, like countless people arguing simultaneously.
"What's wrong?" Ms. Eileen keenly sensed something was amiss.
Kaka bit her lower lip, forcing back her discomfort: "It's nothing."
She could not fail, especially in front of her father and all the nobles.
"Manifest!" she raised her voice, forcefully activating the card's energy.
A burst of green light erupted, but instead of the expected vines, dozens of thorny brambles appeared, growing wildly and almost touching the dome of the main hall.
Kaka heard the card emit a painful scream, and the thorns suddenly turned and attacked her.
"Protect the princess!" the guards shouted as they rushed forward.
At the critical moment, Kaka instinctively drew his third card, which should have been the defensive card "Rock Barrier".
But when she saw the card clearly, her breath almost stopped.
These are not the cards she prepared.
On the black card, a golden eye pattern is slowly opening, its pupil shimmering with starlight.
“Eye of All Things!” she murmured, recognizing it as a legendary card recorded in the royal palace's archives, which was said to have been sealed away long ago.
The card suddenly became scalding hot, and golden light overflowed from the card like liquid, spreading down her arm.
Amidst the excruciating pain, Kaka saw a strange scene flash through his mind: a huge, burning star!
"Kaka! Throw it away!" The king's voice seemed to come from a great distance.
No, she can't!
Legend has it that the "Eye of All Things" card possesses world-destroying power, and whoever summons it gains astonishing strength.
She is the princess of the card world, and she is determined to obtain the "Eye of All Things" to protect the card kingdom.
The golden light formed a vortex, engulfing her and the thorns within it.
When the light faded, the main hall was in a mess.
Kaka knelt on the ground, his hands empty; the mysterious card had vanished.
She looked up, and her left eye turned a strange gold—exactly the same as the eye on the card.
"Kaka?" King Ka called out to his daughter hesitantly.
"Father, it's me! I did it! The Eye of All Things is now my card!" Kaka exclaimed excitedly.
The crowd in the hall erupted in uproar upon hearing Kaka's words.
A flicker of fervor flashed in their eyes; the legendary card had actually been summoned by the princess.
The king immediately went down to help his daughter up. He was extremely excited. She was truly worthy of being his daughter!
With the "Eye of All Things," the Card Kingdom will surely be even better!
"Kaka, the next king of the card world!" The king didn't stand on ceremony and gave the order directly.
Clearly, everyone in the hall was also very happy, feeling that the king's order was correct. After all, who could be more qualified to be king than the princess with the "Eye of All Things"?
Kaka had also tidied herself up by this time. She hadn't expected that she could summon the legendary card so easily.
She recalled all the unusual things that had happened since she was a child: the cards were unusually obedient to her, and sometimes they would even respond to her emotions; she could sense the cards' "emotions" that others couldn't; and those strange dreams about golden eyes.
Her teacher, Ms. Eileen, was also very excited. She never expected that the princess she had taught would have such talent.
While she was overjoyed, she also felt a pang of regret. Why wasn't she the one who summoned the "Eye of All Things" card?
If it were her, she would definitely be granted a noble title!
Lying in bed at night, Kaka's excitement was hard to calm down.
Because she summoned the "Eye of All Things" card, her father gave the entire Card Kingdom a three-day holiday.
This was an immense honor for her, and thinking of the cheers and adoration from the people, Kaka knew she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
At this moment, the books distributed by the system finally arrived.
Kaka was thrilled to see a book shimmering with golden light appear before him. Could this be another hidden card?
She's so lucky!
Thinking that he could get another gold card, Kaka opened the book with excitement.
However, Kaka was somewhat disappointed that this was actually a book.
However, she still read it with great interest. Hmm, do the people described in this book live such a hard life?
Kaka suddenly had a thought: Could it be that the people in the world of the book were suffering too much, so they created a glowing book to ask for help?
Upon seeing the tip button at the end, Kaka casually tipped the other party with a bunch of food cards and clothing cards.
She read in a book about people fleeing famine and having nothing to eat, and it was quite tragic.
Princess Kaka is really worried sick about those people!
