"Kane, listen to me. Throw away all those depressive thoughts. Clear your mind. Focus on your origin card. Ask it what it wants." I guided Kane on listening to his sentient origin card to learn how to help it germinate. As its creator, I knew how to sprout it, but where's the fun in that? And Kane listening to his sentient origin card and figuring it out by himself was also good for his relationship with his summons. 

Summon-type origin cards are usually more sentient than average summon cards, and their sentience continues to grow with the number of baptisms they undergo. With the increased sentience in the summons, summons develop their opinions influenced by their emotions. And sentient origin cards cannot be used as a tool. They need to be handled with the exquisiteness of managing a person. 

Origin cards are bonded to card apprentices for life, and having a summon-type origin card is like being in a marriage. Origin cards can't disobey a user's demands, but an unhappy summon is like an unhappy wife. Any married man would warn you that you don't want that. Especially Kane since he planned to maintain a sexual relationship with his summons. 

Therefore it is crucial for Kane to start developing healthy communication with this origin card from the very beginning. Hence, instead of telling him, I guided him, "Kane, can you hear it? What does it want?" 

"Yes! Yes, I hear it," Kane replied excitedly, and then, opening his eyes, he looked at me and said, "I know what it needs to germinate. There are three methods. I don't know which one to choose." 

The three methods to germinate the variant Ironwood seed that Kane spoke of were, 

1)Sow the seed within himself and provide it with soul energy to germinate.

2)Sow the seed within a monster so that it can feed on the monster's soul energy to germinate. 

3)Sow it in a land with an abundant presence of soul energy for it to germinate. 

The first two options of germinating the seed seemed the same, but there was a vast difference between the two. 

If Kane were to sow the seed in himself and let it grow by feeding on his soul energy, the summon would form an undying bond with him. Giving him a huge head start to earn his summons affection. Making it more submissive to his command. This meant that Kane could usually direct it without using the authority of the origin card. 

Whereas if Kane were to sow the seed in a monster, then the seed would treat the beast as a nutrient and supplement of soul energy to help it germinate and complete its transformation. In this option, Kane would lose the chance to gain affection points with his summons. 

The third option was very basic, but it would be slower than the second option depending on the soul energy present in the land where it is sowed. There is a way to overcome this drawback artificially by adding a large amount of powdered soul jade to the soil where the variant seed is planted. Making the soil rich in soul energy and suitable for the seed to germinate and mature in record time. 

All three methods were indirect methods for the seed to consume soul energy to facilitate its germination. Still, in the end, considering the undying emotional bond between the summons and card apprentice of the first option made it more desirable compared to the other options. 

"So, which germination method will you pick, Kane?" I asked, looking at Kane, who was lost in his thoughts.

"I want to go with the first option, but I am afraid my soul energy is not enough to help germinate the variant seed." Kane was worried that his origin card might suck him dry if he were to choose to sow the variant seed within him. 

"Those worries are unfounded with me here. I, too, recommend the first option. As I have a feeling, there are more benefits to choosing the first option over others." As a creator, I knew the origin card I had created better, and the bond between the card apprentice and the summon formed by choosing the first option for the seed's germination had more to it. Since this was my first time experiencing this, I did not know what it actually was. 

"Okay, I will do as you say, Master Wyatt." Right now, Kane has mixed feelings regarding his idol. He felt guilty for doubting him and proud of him for creating such a mysterious card. With this mixed feeling, Kane's trust in this idol once again reached the level of a blind believer. 

"Wyatt, are you sure? Won't he die if his soul energy is insufficient for the seed to germinate and mature?" Susan asked in concern. As manager of the card boutique, she needed to be the voice of reason to stop her boss from becoming a mad researcher. 

"Don't worry. I have these." saying that, I take out a bottle of mid-tier silver milk pills. Handing them to Kane, I said, "swallow them when you feel your soul energy is not enough for the germination of the seed." 

"Whoa! Are those pills? I feel a lot of soul energy in them. I can have some?" Corey exclaimed and asked a few for herself. 

"They are called silver milk pills. Here, catch!" I threw a bottle of high-tier silver milk pills at Corey. Considering her cards were helpful in the creation of Kane's origin card, I didn't mind giving her a few incentives.

*Crunch* Corey popped the silver milk pills one by one like candies and said, " They taste like milk candies.".

Seeing Corey devour a whole bottle of high-tier silver milk pills like candies, Anna couldn't help but look at her twice, " Him, I can understand, as he was monstrous even before I knew him. But girl, you too are getting mysterious day by day."
