Card Apprentice Daily Log - Chapter 2207: Ann Was An Accident I

2207 Ann Was An Accident I

When Lorenzo and Leo were preparing for their doomed future the free-spirited Anna finally got the hang of her origin card and withdrew the Girl Scout Anna into it. Then she turned to two brothers and planned to settle her score with Lorenzo, “Hey, old pervert.

How dare you decide my origin card for me?”

“Don’t get full of yourself because everyone praised the card recipe you designed for my origin card. Since it is my origin card I get to decide if it’s good or not.

I was not too fond of it one bit. Even my current origin card is far better than the one you designed.

Though its name could have been better it is still better than the shit you designed.”

“Fuck! I can’t believe I was almost stuck with the shitty origin card you designed for me if not for my good fortune.

Lucky me. Hey, old pervert, if you don’t give me a good explanation I will tell grandaunt the reason why I call you old pervert.

Don’t think I will chicken out, I have been itching to settle scores with you for a while now.”

Listening to Anna’s words Leo’s mind wandered and his curiosity for the truth spiked causing him to forget all his previous worries and blurted, “Tell me, why do you call him an old pervert?”

“Leo, that’s not important right now,” Lorenzo yelled at his junior brother before Anna even could answer Leo and continued to try and reason with her, “Anna, I am sorry that I did not take your opinion about your origin card more seriously.

But it’s good to know that you like your new origin card. Still, are you alright? What was that thing just now? It did not feel like a clone or incarnation.

It felt like the original, the real. I could not tell you two apart.

Everything about it from its appearance, clothing, realm, soul energy signature, and even its attitude felt like you except it was a bit feisty compared to the old you— *Cough* *Cough*”

Lorenzo fake coughed to cover the last few words of his sentence as he felt those words might trigger the Anna in front of him. Currently, Anna in front of him feels like a total stranger.

From her words and actions, he could only assume that talking about the old Anna could be a trigger to an already triggered Anna who seemed to have had it out for him. Even though Lorenzo was walking around Anna on eggshells he doubted if he was talking to the real Anna.

Because of her unusual attitude, he could not help but wonder that his well-mannered grandniece was the one trapped in the grimoire while the unknown abomination created by the freak accident walked free. Though he tried not to let his imagination run wild his current situation made it too easy for him not to.

“Senior brother, why does the princess call you an old pervert? What did you do? I have to know. This is a matter of the South’s pride,” Leo did not give two shits about the beef between Anna and Lorenzo, he just wanted to know his stuck-up but lucky senior brother’s dirty secret.

He and his senior brother started off the same as orphans but in their life, his senior brother enjoyed more success and luck than him. His senior brother was the right hand of the Southern Ruler, married the Southern Hero, and had a beautiful family meanwhile he was his senior brother’s assistant and still single.

So, Leo developed a harmless jealousy toward his senior brother which surfaced after learning that his senior brother had skeletons in his closet.

“How is the princess calling me an old pervert a matter of South’s pride?” Lorenzo asked his useless junior brother but then seeing the twinkle in his eyes he said in shock, “You are enjoying this. You do realize that they will have our heads if we don’t fix whatever is wrong with her.”

“There is nothing wrong with me.

If anybody needs fixing then it’s you. You are the one going around the city sniffing other women’s dirty laundry,” Anna revealed in a fit of rage, then realizing what she did she stuck out her tongue and apologized to Lorenzo, “Oops, my bad.”

“…” Learning the truth Leo froze up out of shock. However, his expression morphed into disgust as he muttered, “Why?”

“That’s not what transpired.

I happened to smell the scent of a scarce mythical-grade ingredient from a heap of dirty laundry while surveying the slums on the city outskirts. I had to smell them all to pinpoint the clothing that the smell was attached to and track that clothes owner to get information from them.

That is all, I swear on my unknown parents’ soul,” Lorenoze explained himself but from the looks he got from his junior brother and grandniece he could tell that neither believed him.

“Well, that is what he keeps saying but based on the excitement he had on his face as he went through the heap of women’s laundry I find it had to believe him,” Anna pointed out.

“I was excited because I found a clue about a scarce mythical grade ingredient and nothing else. Please trust me,” Lorenzo begged his junior brother to believe him knowing Anna wouldn’t.

However, he could not help but feel that though his junior brother’s face had a disgusted expression his eyes seemed to be snickering at him.

“So, where is this scarce mythical grade ingredient? Did you find it?” Leo asked his senior brother emotionlessly.

“T-that that… the clue was a dead end,” Lorenzo uttered, his voice had no force in it, knowing his life was doomed. Sooner or later his wife would find out the truth now that his junior brother knew it.

If his brother-in-law didn’t kill him for the accident with Anna’s origin card his wife will.

“I see,” Leo replied while his expression yelled, ‘You dog!’
