*Swoosh* 

Wyatt closed his eyes feeling a sudden headache, when he opened them he found Lunaʼs face right in front of his, so close that he could feel her breath on his lips. Wyatt noticed that Lunaʼs pupils had morphed into a starry night sky. Soon he felt wetness on his chest when he looked down to check, he found that Lunaʼs hand had pierced through it and then turned his head to look behind him to find his beating heart in her bloody arm. 

Registering what had transpired in the fraction of a second he had his eyes closed, Wyatt returned to look into Lunaʼs starry pupils with his soul pupils, only to hear, Luna say, ”I was aiming for your mutant ego gem but it moved in the last second. So I could only settle for the next best thing in your chest, your heart.” 

”Fuck, she is going to kill him,” Joy and Baylor panicked and were about to rush to his rescue but Henricks who saw Wyatt fight the devil and survive worse than this stopped them saying, ”Wyatt can take care of himself. But just in case, Joy inform me the instant the plague egg in his body acts up.” 

”Henricks, listen to them Luna will kill him. That little girl is crazy,” Ned stressed based on his personal experience.

”Fuck, are all of you sisters insane,” Wyatt said referring to the crazy in Anna, Ann, and now Luna. Was this the direct result of the burden royal children faced? Regardless, he was super surprised by the strength and speed Luna erupted, it was beyond the limits of a Card King even a Card Emperor. 

”I am keeping it,” Luna pulled out her hand from Wyattʼs chest while holding his heart, widening the hole in his chest. Wyatt did not even flinch as she did so, scaring the shit out of the onlookers, the regular members of the Freedom Fighters. 

As Luna summoned a storage card and prepared to preserve Wyattʼs heart in it, to her disappointment his heart and every drop of his blood suddenly turned black oozing malicious curse energy. Not only did it destroy the heart but also made it so that it could not be used for cursing Wyatt. 

Meanwhile, the hole in Wyattʼs chest healed in an instant and then his skin began to fall off. To be accurate all the cells in his body began to be replaced, as they were all tainted by Joyʼs microorganism. After giving the cellʼs energy to heal the corpse of the microorganism inside the cells act as a sensor for Joy allowing her to monitor the physical body of the tainted. Wyatt had no evidence to back that she could do a lot more but he did not mind taking caution. 

Seeing this Joy frowned and said, ”I cannot monitor plague egg in his body anymore. Not that I could earlier.” 

While healing Wyatt Joy tried to find the plague sealed in his body to study it and see if she could learn from it if possible find a cure for it but to her surprise, she could not find it in his body. Either Wyatt had a very advanced and mysterious sealing method or he never incubated the egg in him in the first place. 

As Joy scoured through his physical body using her plague she could not find anything peculiar about Wyatt except for his mutated ego gem and extremely sturdy physique. Most of Wyattʼs secrets were in his Calamity soul gem so Joy could not uncover any of them, let alone come in contact with them. 

Crushing the black heart in her hands into the dirt, Lunaʼs starry pupils locked on Wyatt as she said, ”I wwaannt annothheer onnee, ttthhiss ooonnnee iiisss rruuiiiinnneeedd.” 

No, Luna was not speaking oddly but Wyattʼs mindʼs processing power had slowed down by a huge margin. So much so that he did not even realize that Luna had already closed the distance between them and once again almost pierced his chest to pluck his beating heart right out of it. Thankfully, he had given the Hive AI the persimmon to control his body if Luna used her ability to mess with his mind again. Which saved him from another loss at her hand. 

Earlier when Wyatt had experienced a sudden headache, it was the doing of Lunaʼs weird ability, it had messed up his brainʼs processing power. Such that the things that would normally take him a fraction of a millisecond to process now took more than a second to process. 

Therefore, even though Luna was showing the speed of a peak Card King, Wyatt felt like she was attacking him with the speed of a demigod. If not for his Hive AI taking emergency action to move his calamity soul gem in the last second, earlier, Luna would have grasped his calamity soul gem instead of his heart. 

So, after experiencing a loss earlier Wyatt gave Hive AI partial reign on his physical body. This way even though this mind was being messed up by Lunaʼs ability, Hive AI would take control of his body and take defensive and if necessary offensive measures. 

Luna was surprised to find that though her ability worked on Wyatt somehow his body was able to defend against her attacks. Luna was not happy with this result, so she increased the effect of her skill on Wyatt to the point that it was not just messing with his Brain anymore but his nervous system too. If this move was used on any other Card Master, they would permanently be paralyzed or even enter a coma.

With the nervous system of Wyattʼs body under the influence of Lunaʼs ability, the Hive AI had no choice but to lift the taboo limiter on his body and summon the eleven pairs of floating hands and heads, before Luna could react the arms vanished and appeared behind her. While one pair of arms blocked her eyes the source of her weird ability, the other ten pairs of arms held her down. 

With Lunaʼs vision being obstructed, her skillʼs effect on Wyatt lifted. His mind and his nervous system returned to normal. If not for Hive AI, he would have been in deep shit right about now.
