While Corey and Park argued in one corner of the cave, I walked to a secluded spot far away from them and arranged an isolation array. Isolating my corner of the cave from the rest of the cave. Assuring some privacy, I made myself comfortable and then summoning my grimoire I took out the recommendation quota to the devil merchant code I won from Belphegor. Then feeding the token my blood, I waited, when suddenly I felt my consciousness being dragged into the spiritual plane.
I could feel that I was in the spiritual plane where the card world’s will was present but the rules and energies that I saw the last time I was here were missing. However, I could another presence here apart from me and Card World’s will, it had a similar presence as the world’s will. I guess that must be the devil merchant code.
Why was it not showing itself? Was it screening me to check if I was worthy? Did getting the recommendation quota not guarantee becoming a demon merchant? Was I supposed to clear an interview with the devil merchant code to officially become a devil merchant?
Then soon a huge stele made of pure rule energy appeared in front of me. It had many ancient texts inscribed in it, and though I had no idea what language it was I could read it with any difficulty. The ancient texts were titled Devil Merchant Code.
I patiently read each and every letter mentioned in the devil merchant code(merchant copy). Then I compared it with the devil merchant code (Customer Copy), fun fact this may slightly change from realm to realm. I learned that the Devil Merchant Code did not actually provide an advantage to its demon/devil merchants but had a fair set of rules and regulations to make the trade between a demon/devil merchant and the native as fair as possible. The problem was that customers were unaware of these laws and regulations so they were easily taken advantage of by the demon/devil merchants.
Once I was finished reading the ancient texts I felt my consciousness return to my body. Then I looked at the recommendation token in my hand, it had turned into a new card, Demon Merchant Codex.
