My Magical Card Tavern

Chapter 62 Pain, so much pain

Both Ginell and Luke were stunned.

"You don't know what the third-layer monster is?"

Yin Xing nodded seriously, her expression solemn.

"That's right."

"I only felt immense pain, and then I saw swarms of insects and skeletons descend from the sky, gnawing me to pieces."

"I cast my last glance at Pangu, trying my best to protect the children who could speak to me."

Silver Star picked up a chestnut, peeled it, and put it in her mouth.

"And then, as you all know."

""

"A new dungeon called Dark Forest has appeared on the continent of Pangu, and I, as a dead star, continue to exist in some sense."

"Only after the tavern appeared did I, an old man, have a place where I felt I was still alive."

At this point, Yin Xing couldn't help but ask a question.

"If you two don't believe me, I actually have a rather special little magic trick here that can make you feel the same way I do."

Gianna raised an eyebrow.

"Empathy, you mean sharing sensory experiences?"

Luke's expression was somewhat strange.

"Old man, how come you can use magic to replicate that feeling?"

Even I, when touching my wounds, cannot recall the pain of every single one.

Intelligence and biological instincts will override and forget pain; this is beneficial to the body and is normal.

But after Silver Star said that, Luke began to suspect that the old man might have some special hobby, that he could use magic to recreate past pain.

Silver Star drew her staff and slashed it at Luke's head.

"With all the stars above, what do you take me for!"

"That's a scar etched on my soul, something I can't just forget. If only it were that easy!"

'

Silver Star was furious. What was supposed to be a serious topic had been completely distorted by Luke.

Silver Star instantly wanted to whip Luke like a spinning top in the tavern.

Ginnell pressed Silver Star back into his chair.

"Getting back to the point, to be honest, I really want to try that kind of pain that even you, an old man, don't have time to react to."

"However, I need to know if this process is dangerous."

Silver Star shook her head.

"It's very safe. Although the pain is only momentary in terms of duration, it is not for the person suffering it."

""

Safe, but torturous.

Ginnell understood what Silver Star was trying to say and simply reached out his hand.

"Come on, count me in."

"Let me experience what kind of pain is so intense that you can't even react to it."

Silver Star glanced at Genelec and immediately knew what the other party was up to.

"Little Ginnell, no way."

"As I just said, that pain is a wound etched into my soul, one that cannot be forgotten simply by wishing to forget it."

"Coming to the tavern is just a way for me to find a moment of peace."

"In other words, because my subject still exists, that kind of pain can be easily reproduced. Even if you have personally experienced it once, you should not be able to replicate it through the power of the tavern."

"Ginnell asked."

"Is there absolutely no possibility? Why don't you think about it again, old man?"

'

Yin Xing actually thought about it for a moment, and then said.

"There is only one possibility, and that is that you, little Ginnell, find my soul and cut that indelible scar from my soul."

,

"By drawing inspiration and ideas from that scar, and using them to construct a completely new magical structure, you can unleash this power within the pangu and successfully create magic."

"To be honest, I would be very grateful if you could do that."

Ginnell sat down decisively and slowly raised his glass to take a sip.

"Never mind, I won't try."

He has no masochistic tendencies. Since Silver Star has made it clear that it is impossible to condense a curse-type card that inflicts pain through personal experience, then the option of trying pain no longer exists.

To heal the wounds on the soul?

First of all, Ginell has never even heard of the Soul Surgery.

Secondly, if the old man himself couldn't do it, Gianna didn't think he could do it now.

Ginnell was reluctant, but Luke next to her was eager to try.

"Old man, I'll do it."

"Silver Star asked in surprise.

"With all the stars above, little Ginnell simply wants to gather a new magic to enhance her own foundation."

"And you, Luke, do you simply want to experience the pain I went through?"

The case is solved. Are you the masochist?

Luke's eyes were resolute, or perhaps they were filled with a sense of excitement, like someone eyeing a predator.

"A wound that can cause stars to fall, a wound from which even a single star cannot find the source of pain."

"I want to take on the challenge!"

In Luke's mind, taking on this painful challenge was like seeing the whole leopard through a tube, or personally confronting a powerful being capable of killing stars.

Finding your shortcomings can also lead you to a stronger path!

Ginnell chuckled and personally stood up to move the tables and chairs to the side, giving Silver Star and Luke enough room to perform.

It can only be said that melee-focused warriors are indeed like that; the stereotype is true to some extent.

The Heart of the Hearth only ensures that guests are restored to their original state after entering the tavern. In other words, if a guest gets drunk in the tavern, or injures themselves while drunk, it will prevent them from doing so.

The special effects of Heart of the Fire are ignored.

Luke looked at the staff being thrust towards his forehead and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The staff struck Luke's forehead, and his expression instantly contorted.

It's like a blank sheet of paper without any creases or writing on it, placed on a table, and then suddenly someone in a bad mood appears next to it, grabs the paper with both hands, and crushes it flat.

Those are Luke's current facial features.

The deep breaths, resolute gazes, and readiness for battle that precede the attack all become useless the moment the magic hits.

Silver Star couldn't help but sigh.

"Little Luke can still sit upright in his chair now, instead of overturning all the tables and chairs and rolling around on the floor."

"It's already been very difficult."

After observing Luke's expression for a while, Genelec casually asked...

"If that's the case, then the swarms of insects deep in the Dark Forest have already come out. Doesn't that mean the passage between the outer and deep layers has been opened, and the threat level of the Dark Forest will become even higher in the future?"

Yin Xing hummed in agreement, somewhat helplessly.

"This is a war, a war that has lasted for an unknown period of time."

,

"As the mountains and seas of Pangu migrated, we could see the rise and fall of one civilization after another, and the war was still not over."

"

Genele nodded thoughtfully.

"In other words, everything that is happening now is just a local war, at most it will have a certain impact on the main battlefield, right?"

It's like a classic math problem about releasing and pumping water.

Any change in the value of either side will affect the final answer.
