Grant woke up today feeling very excited.
Ever since he met the Inte God and was able to use the Inte for the first time, Grant felt that his life had be a lot more fun.
Even while working, Grant managed to find a few moments to rest and pick up the Inte book so he could see what was going on in the Kingdom.
Waking up every day and reading the new publications in [Arcantor National] was something that made Grant feel like he really was someone important.
So when he woke up today, while his wife was stillfortably asleep in bed, Grant quietly got up and walked to the "bathroom" of his house, which was a short distance from the house.
As he walked in the dark, praying softly, Grant stumbled over a rock and hit something in the Inte book, causing the ''screen'' to flicker for a second.
He was extremely worried that he might have done something wrong, but when he saw nothing wrong, he sighed and opened the [Arcantor National] application to read the news while doing his business.
He, who used to be just amoner who had no contact with the politics and people of great power in the kingdom, was now able to read about the discussions and decisions made by the rulers of the kingdom, and evenment on them on the Inte!
Yesterday he even read a publication where the rulers were in doubt because they had managed to find seeds for a new nt, but they were having trouble finding an effective way to make it grow.Since Grant''s family came from farmers and ranchers, he had some knowledge and interest in the field, even to the point that one of the books he read was "Cultivating the Future," a book specifically about agriculture that he found on the Inte for a low price.
So, using his family''s knowledge and adding things he''d learned on the Inte, Grant mustered up enough courage to post ament below the post with his point of view and expertise.
He was shocked when he started getting lots of likes andments from other users on his post!
[Wow, that''s amazing! I''m definitely going to try this technique on my farm. Thanks for sharing!"]
[I have always had problems with crabgrass on my Barnd. I think this drip irrigation tip of yours could be useful, I will implement it to try it out. Thank you so much!]

Among the replyments, there were people who were educatedmoners just like him, but there were even nobles who interacted and replied to his post.
Seeing that even nobles were responding and being polite to him, Grant felt a huge wave of pride rise in his chest.
The number of likes on his reply was only 17, as the number of educated users was still very low, especially since the educated users were mages who had no interest in this kind of topic, but for Grant, knowing that seventeen people agreed with him and liked what he said made him smile all day long.
So today, Grant opened the [Arcantor National] again, hoping to find something he couldment on and participate in again, but unfortunately, today''s topic was something he didn''t really understand at all.
He still struggled to understand it and decided that he would try harder over time to learn more and be able to participate in this kind of conversation, but since he didn''t understand much today, Grant just closed the application and went to work.
But to his surprise, instead of talking about what was being discussed in [Arcantor National], his friends were talking about the changes in [CardMasters].
This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
Grant''s job was as a stonemason, where he and a group of five other men epted construction jobs around the city for nobles or mages who wanted to build mansions or upgrade their mansions.
Since this service paid well and they often had to interact with nobles to get the job done, Grant wasn''t the only one who could read the group.
So it was quitemon for them to talk about [Arcantor National]''s publications every day at work.
But surprisingly, today''s topic wasn''t really the news they read every day.
"Hey Grant, you wouldn''t believe how lucky Brandyn is..." Eduart, one of his friends, said as heughed with a fake expression of envy.
Looking surprised, Grant approached the men and asked in confusion. "Lucky with what?"
"With the deck!" Easton, another man in the group, said in frustration.
"He won a bet against you in poker?" Grant asked confused.
"No, he only spent 10 Inte Coins and got a deck worth 1,000 Inte Coins!" Eduart exined.
Hearing this, Grant became even more confused.
"What do you mean? I don''t understand..." Grant said.
Seeing Grant''s genuine confusion, the other men were confused.
"Didn''t you read the inte update notes today?" Brandyn asked confused.
"Update Notes?" Grant was even more puzzled.
The other men stared at each other in confusion as they realized that Grant really didn''t know what they were talking about.
After thinking for a while, Eduart finally thought about what might have happened.
"Grant, when you opened the Inte for the first time today, was there a warning window in front of the book?" Eduart asked.
"Warning window...?" Grant asked aloud as he tried to remember if there was such a thing.
Remembering that when he had woken up and prayed to the God of the Inte, he had stumbled while opening the Inte book and something had shed on the screen, Grant realized that maybe that could be it?
When he exined what had happened, his friends were shocked at the coincidence.
"So you really didn''t see the update screen!" Brandynmented in surprise, mirroring the reaction of the other men who began tough at Grant.
Hearing his friends''ughter, Grant was a little irritated, but his curiosity was such that he ignored it and asked what the update was about.
Eduart quickly exined everything.
He had read these update notes so many times that he had practically memorized the new things that had arrived.
Upon hearing this exnation, Grant waspletely shocked.
As a regr [CardMasters] yer among the group of friends in the tavern, Grant had already won a few dozen Inte Coins and currently had 81 Inte Coins in his ount.
When he looked at the screen of Brandyn''s Inte Book and saw how beautiful the deck he had received was, Grant''s eyes lit up.
The backs of the cards in the deck had a beautiful, delicate red pattern, something everyone knew how to appreciate, and many people had even tried to replicate it to sell around town in the past few days.
But when he saw Brandyn''s card and noticed the exquisite blue design, with clouds that even seemed to be moving and birds flying across the beautiful sky, Grant realized that he really wanted it.
And to his surprise, Brandyn even managed to make the cover of the cards look like the cover of his book, making everyone around him even more jealous!
Looking at the ck cover with a heart of hearts in the middle, Grant felt that the cover of his [CardMasters] book was not as beautiful as he thought it was.
Especially after seeing that even Eduart and Easton had different covers on their books, this only made Grant feel even more desirous of having a book cover and deck back as beautiful as this!
So, on the advice of his friends, Grant finally reached the [CardMasters] screen where he could buy the ''Magic Deck Boxes''.
ording to Eduart''s exnation, these ''Magic Deck Boxes'' were boxes that found decks all over the world, depending on the person''s luck whether the deck the box found was good or not.
Eduart said that his Magic Deck Box had found him a deck worth 15 Inte Coins, while he had only spent 10 Inte Coins to open the box, which made Grant''s eyes light up even more!
What he didn''t know was that after getting this deck, he opened three more boxes and only got decks that cost a maximum of 5 Inte Coins...
Looking at the screen, Grant saw that there were two buttons he could press.
[Open 1x] or [Open 10x].
The first button cost 10 Inte Coins, and the second cost 100 Inte Coins.
But if he pressed the second button, he would get a bonus box for free!
Unfortunately, Grant only had 81 Inte Coins, so he was 19 Inte Coins short of being able to press the second button.
But he was so eager that he decided to test at least one of them by opening a ''Magic Deck Box''.
As soon as he clicked on it, several particles of magic appeared on the book''s screen, and he saw a new deck appear under a green light.
Seeing the color of the light, his friends sighed in disappointment, but Grant watched carefully until he saw a very nice deck with drawings of trees in front of him.
Smiling as he looked at his friends, Grant expected them to celebrate for him, but seeing their expressions, he felt a bad feeling.
"Isn''t this deck good?" He asked anxiously.
Eduart just shook his head and replied. "This deck costs 5 Inte Coins..."
Hearing this, Grant looked back at the screen and thought.
I guess I can run it one more time to try my luck, right?
