Chapter 213 – Volume 43 – The World of a Girl Who Never Grows Up (3)
“I’m sorry. Originally, you shouldn’t have to know the contents like this.”
“Never mind. We said we would.”
“That’s right, if you didn’t like it, you would have declined in advance.”
“If you have time for that, finish the work as soon as possible.”
“…Thanks.”
After all, it is necessary to test the card environment before the work is completed.
Through a test deck made up of only effects, the kids from the manga club were playing a test play.
Of course, it’s only for the effect, but the content of the deck later becomes a spoiler.
I’m honestly a bit sorry.
Although they are my acquaintances, they are basically readers who like my work.
But because of my request, it means that you can’t fully enjoy the work.
However, as long as it is a card game, if there are no such people, normal results will not come out, so you can’t help but ask for help.
“Wasn’t it to buy delicious food instead?”
“We have to treat it properly. We don’t have time to go and eat, so I’ll call someone.”
Money rots anyway, but sometimes you need to use it to treat everyone.
Actually, we had to do that when we got together during vacation, but Nia took care of most of the expenses.
This time, it was necessary to treat her properly.
“I think this deck destroys too quickly.”
“Yes?”
“Yes, the influence of the search card decreases as much as the deck is destroyed. Feeling like that part was not considered? Because of that, the progress of the Marchen is slowed down.”
“Aha, I didn’t consider that. Okay, I need to adjust the balance.”
Anyway, thanks to that, I was able to notice the things necessary for the minimum balance adjustment.
In fact, as much as balance is something that cannot be perfectly achieved even with a professional team, there is no way to perfectly solve the balance.
But at least it needs to be balanced enough to run the game properly.
“So, are the works going well?”
“Sufficiently? I’ve finished working on volume 1. I’ve started volume 2.”
That’s just the end of the story, it’s difficult to submit because problems can be found in the balance part.
In that case, the cards that appear in the work must be modified.
When the final draft is decided on the card, then it will go into printing along with the card.
“Right. Then this work is a new work. What is the reservation reward?”
“Special rare card.”
Originally, it was a normal card, but there was one card that was very active at a certain point.
It’s even a card related to the world view, so it’s actually a card in every deck this time.
It has a fraudulent event effect of drawing two cards.
Anyway, the effect is the same, but I plan to provide only the design in color.
It goes into all decks, so you can use it in any deck you like.
The performance is also strong, so it will be nice to see it often.
“You’ll see that card very often.”
“From next time, you will definitely want to make a reservation.”
“It’s vicious.”
“Because I want people to enjoy my work as much as possible. It can’t be helped.”
Honestly, if you take care of the pre-registration compensation like this, I can’t make money because of my style of making a small margin.
But rather, I don’t have to earn money, so I want more people to enjoy my work.
Honestly, I’m grateful that so many people are enjoying it even now, but my greed is endless.
“However, he paid a lot of attention to the existing characters as well. The cards have changed little, but the influence is quite strong.”
“That’s how the playing experience changes even a little bit. I don’t think you’ll get tired of playing the same deck over and over again.”
Take a card with as little influence as possible, or a card with low usage due to low performance.
It has been renewed with cards that can give strong returns that can definitely affect the deck.
However, it was not unconditionally strong, but the conditions that saved the concept of each deck made it fun.
“Isn’t Rapunzel’s pregnancy poison replacement card a joke?”
“Ah, you mean enlargement?”
Existing Pregnancy Addiction was a card that made a lot of tentacles that did not give birth and made the Merhen turn come quickly.
It was used as a joker pick in tournaments before it was properly researched in the beginning, but recently it was abandoned because there were too many countermeasures.
The cost to proceed with it is also quite expensive.
However, its replacement, large-scale, is not such a last-minute card.
It was a low-cost card that specially gave birth to large tentacles from tentacles that had not been given birth.
Its large tentacles do not have any significant advantages other than that they are only slightly better than normal tentacles, but rebirth also features large tentacles.
And if you use enlargement on that large tentacle again, it becomes a super large tentacle.
It’s also slightly good, but doesn’t have a very special effect.
But when the giant tentacle uses gigantism to give birth to its next baby, that’s a different story.
“Have you ever won in perfect form? It must have been difficult.”
“Is that so? I thought it was worth it.”
Then it turns into a special tentacle named Perfection.
Surprisingly, this tentacle checks all of my opponent’s and my cards, and picks one character card out of the two.
I put that character card down and use it as a host.
This tentacle has both the tentacle characteristics and the card’s abilities.
You can use abilities, etc. By reducing all costs required by that card to 0.
It even has the ability and reproduction of stronger tentacles.
Because the perfect form that occurs every time you breed is a duplicate of that character card.
You can activate the effect of the character card by that number.
If successful, the return value itself is no joke.
‘Actually, it’s hard to do that three times, but.’
Even if it’s a deck that has quite a few ways to recycle the cards Rapunzel used.
It was an effect that was not easy to activate.
“I’m glad. I think you’re enjoying yourself.”
“Yeah, so don’t worry and work on your project. We also have fun while enjoying ourselves in advance.”
“Thank you for thinking that way.”
Yes, it is better to draw a better work while having time to worry about these things.
That would be a way to pay back my gratitude in some way.
『In a world where erotic comics are legal』
“Thank you.”
One woman thanked me for receiving the box, which seemed to be quite large.
Then she hurried home, and she opened the box and pulled out what appeared to be her book.
The book had the name ‘The world of a girl who does not grow up’ written on it.
“The ones below here are the decks… Oh, these are the cards that have been changed from the previous work.”
As she looked through the 10 components in her box one by one, she neatly placed them on her desk, except for the first book she took out.
Then she sat down on the couch with the rest of her book, turning her pages with her body trembling.
“Hmm, I don’t know how long I’ve been waiting. What will this work be about?”
Even with the name Siu, she already had great expectations for her work.
Even the cover of the book, which looked so fantastic, she further fueled that feeling in her.
“Five…”
The first part of her book was a story about ‘Merchen’, which she was familiar with.
However, the story was a bit radical because the Marchen card of a certain Jericho little girl was torn due to the careless actions of the adults.
Because of that, her girl didn’t become her adult, and her world treated her as her witch and persecuted her.
It must have been a very dark story for her, since even her parents took her away.
“…Uh?”
So, she really became a witch.
As adults, those who no longer needed the Marchen card neglected or threw away their cards.
She whispers to the cards discarded by adults like that.
“Being an adult is really bad. You are also abandoned.”
“So, let’s create a new world for us abandoned by adults.”
“Neverland, a children’s paradise where no one is abandoned.”
Light of many colors emanates from it.
The intense light completely covers the page, and a very charming fantasy land unfolds.
It was the appearance of Neverland, a fantasy world that does not exist anywhere.
“You don’t have to become an adult?”
“Yes, in Neverland, you can stay a child forever.”
And before you know it, that fantasy world turns into a door leading to that world.
In front of that door, that child, Petra, is introducing Neverland to a girl named Wendy.
Wendy, who she never wanted to be an adult, follows Petra with her twin sister, Lily.
“Wow…”
She turned her page with great excitement, feeling as if she were on an adventure.
The world called Neverland was a fantasy world that runs on a system completely different from common sense.
Not only bread and cookies were grown on trees, but there was even a river flowing with strawberry syrup and chocolate syrup.
Extremely unconventional and fantastic scenes began to satisfy something in her.
However, Neverland was not perfect.
Even Petra, who created Neverland, couldn’t control Neverland at will.
It’s because the adults, Rachel and her men, have been attacking the children time and time again.
Fortunately, Petra’s Marchen battle skills were very good.
Petra took the place of Wendy, who was still not good at her skills, and defeated quite a few enemies.
So, with Petra’s help, Wendy and Lily began to adapt to Neverland.
“I can’t understand Petra. These kids will betray you anyway. I’m the only one left by Petra’s side, right?」
“Quiet. Bell. Wendy is different, she said that she really didn’t want to grow up.”
“Right, Bell. I don’t want to be an adult! I want to be like Petra, so I’m working hard!”
I wondered if Wendy would get used to life in Neverland to some extent.
A girl named ‘Bell’ suddenly appeared, clinging to Petra and giving Wendy a hostile look.
Bell said she couldn’t trust Wendy, and because she wanted to show her resolve, she challenged Wendy to her Marchen Battle.
