First Card:
But upon seeing the golden border, Sean didn't hesitate. A Goldshire Footman—a rare golden card with Hero Traits—would surely outshine the Mystery Guardian.
Focusing on the [Summon] button beside the Footman, three seconds later a flash of white light materialized a middle-aged armored warrior wielding a sword and shield two meters away. The man paused, surveyed his surroundings, then approached Sean.
…
Post-summoning, the green [Summon] button beside Goldshire Footman turned red [Dismiss], while the other four minions' buttons grayed out. Even more startling was the Footman's transformed stats:
Name: [Goldshire Footman]
Rarity: Golden Common
Identity: Reginald Windsor
Race: Human
Level: 10 (Black Iron Lower Tier)
Class: Protection Warrior (specialized in defensive combat)
Attack: Moderate
Defense: Exceptional
Abilities:
Taunt: Forces enemies to attack him, increasing defense by 50% for 5 seconds (effect weakens against higher-level foes). Once per day.Hero Trait: Golden cards summon Azerothian heroes not yet in the Hearthstone library. These heroes possess immense potential—capable of leveling (max level = summoner's level) and learning spells from the card database.
…
Staring at the panel, Sean grasped the system's "Hearthstone mechanics + real-world components" design. Skills like card draw had been reimagined for practicality. But what did [Dismiss] do? Would it send Windsor back into the system?
And that name—Reginald Windsor—felt familiar…
…
Windsor stopped two meters away, sheathed his sword, placed a fist over his chest, and knelt. "Master."
Startled mid-menu review, Sean hurriedly dismissed the hologram and helped him up. "No need for that! Just call me Sean."
"Understood… Sean." Windsor's steady gaze awaited orders.
"Um, take a seat." Sean gestured awkwardly toward the desk chairs.
Windsor hesitated, eyeing the rickety furniture. Setting his shield on the floor, he sat gingerly.
