"Do you want the cards or not? Give them back" Corey snatched the stack of cards from me after she replied to me with a question instead of answering why most of her cards had the word Demon in their names. For example, Frost Demon Palm Arts, Strom Demon Fingers Arts, Tyrant Demon Saber Arts, etc.
"Okay, I want them. Give me some martial arts related to wood elements and elemental resistance." Since Corey had snatched back the stack of martial arts cards before I could go through all of them, I had no choice but to specify to her what I wanted.
"Umm… Let me see. I have four cards satisfying your requirements. Here, Tree Demon Whip Arts, Wood Demon Sealing Arts, Demonic Wood Escape Arts, and Desolate Demon Body Arts." Corey passed me four A-rank martial arts cards. And then added, "If you give me some more time, I can create a few more martial arts cards according to your requirements."
Taking the four cards from Anna, "No, we don't have the time." I rejected her offer because I needed to create Kane's card before his grandfather caught wind of it. And also because the four martial arts cards given by Anna were more than enough for Kane's origin card.

Going through the card Info of the four demonic cards, I was impressed as they matched my requirements perfectly. Wood whip and sealing arts will perfectly fit the crowd control skills I was planning for Kane's origin card.
As for the wood escape technique, it seems pretty similar to Mandrake's Earth escape skill. If I play it right, I may be able to fuse these two arts and add a hybrid escape art to Kane's origin card.
The enhanced elemental resistance provided by Desolate Demon Body arts will complement the elemental resistance from the Treant core that I plan on adding to the origin card. Also, the Herculean strength of treant will enhance the physical effect of the Desolate Demon Body art.
Seeing how the martial arts cards created by Park were the perfect match for my requirements, I really wanted to see what she could pull off if I gave her some time, but I didn't have that luxury since I had to finish card creation before Kane's grandfather heard about this. I did not see the need to hide the truth from Rami Kaga, but since Kane wanted it that way, I had no opinion.
"How much for these four cards?" I asked Corey the price of martial arts cards. After all, she made it very clear that I had to pay in full to get the cards.
"1000 soul Jades each!" Corey quoted a sky-high price. But considering that if these cards were auctioned, they could fetch a higher price, I did not complain. And agreed to her price because compared to the millions of soul jades Kane was paying in terms of assets, these 4000 soul jades were a small price.
