”This does not make any sense,” Colleen blurted in confusion unable to keep up with Wyattʼs explanation of the situation in Sky Blossom City that led to the death of the Tao of Tongue and Blood Supreme.

”...” In response, Wyatt gave a Colleen deadpan glance. He tried to keep his explanation of the events as simple as possible so that Colleen would be able to follow it but he had overestimated her.

”That look reminds me of my daughter, she will be returning from the western region soon. Maybe you will get to meet her, you two will hit it off,” Colleen said wondering if Anna knew there were a lot of similarities between Wyatt and her mother.

”I am not so sure about that, I heard princess has a big personality. Anyway, I will submit a report about what I have gathered to Ann. Susan and Corey are the only witnesses of this incident, you guys can investigate them for more clarity. Lastly, what are you guys going to do about the demigod guarding the city? I would like to speak to him before that,”? Wyatt demanded. He planned to cooperate with the Southern Royal Family as much as possible to ensure they hunt for Handsome Fox while he hunts for the lone Devil Marchant of the card world.

”Talk to Ann about that. Her mother has put her in charge of this case,” Colleen did not reject Wyatt but threw the ball to Annʼs court.

”Then why is it that Ann is not here but you are here?” Wyatt did not like being run around, the demigods that were in charge of protecting the city should still be in the city, Colleen could have just arranged the questioning but she did not.

”She is busy making sure that the Southern Capital city is running smoothly again. She will be here when she is done there,” Colleen replied dodging Wyattʼs glare.

”So she is helping her grandmother like the good granddaughter she is,” Wyatt immediately understood what was going on, Colleen like Anna, had thrown her duties on to Ann while she goofed around.

”Hehe,” Colleen laughed and acted like she did not know what I was talking about. Then she asked, ”What about you? Is the plague egg under control?”

Wyatt looked at Colleen in disbelief, now he knew why the Southern Region was worse off compared to other regions, with leaders like this it wasnʼt surprising. In the entire Heatsend Royal family, except for Ann and her mother, nobody seemed to care when it came to politics, administration, and management. Before them, it was Lorenzo, no wonder he managed to land a powerful wife like Field Marshal Heatsend. If not for the Heatsends getting their kicks at the Way Beyond, these people would have to invade their neighbors who were smart enough to save rations for winter.

”You do not need to worry about the plague egg I disposed of it as soon as the devil cut his connection with it,” Wyatt said leaning on the balcony railing no longer bothering with the Heatsend Royal familyʼs way of doing things.

The Heatsends managed to keep the Southern Region running so far which meant that they were doing something right. They were strong enough to keep Wyattʼs enemies from blatantly attacking him, even though they were weak to conspiracies, that was enough. The battle of the Southern Capital was proof of this.

The Southern Royal family failed horribly in their mission to protect Wyatt. But Wyatt made peace with that because the only reason the leaders of the Central government and Morningstar University did not come in person to get what they wanted and instead sent their sub-par lackeys was because of their fear of the Heatsend Royal family. If not for the Southern Royal family protecting him, he would have been erased from this world the moment the world leaders knew of the Silver Milk Powder and VR-universe.

With the power he displayed in the battle of Southern Capital and Heatsend Royal family backing, Wyatt believed there would not be many who tried to conspire against him. As such, he achieved the purpose he was after when decided to attend the Morningstar Universtiyʼs early admission interview despite knowing it was a trap. All in all, the battle of Southern Capital was huge even without considering the unexpected gains such as Belphegorʼs two relics & the storage item, the plague egg, and finally the Freedom Fighters.

It was a shame that Matron escaped, if the forces of the Central Government had not changed their plan last minute and stuck to one they agreed with the Morningstar University, he could have used this opportunity to understand her origin card and then put an end to the Proof. Sansa Orian persona with the strength of Twelve Blood Curse Incarnation body. Such a same.

Wyatt could not help but wonder if what he gained from the battle of Southern Capital could compare to foiling the perfect chance for him to uncover Matronʼs origin card. If Blephegorʼs hourglass relic worked as advertised then maybe. After all, time rule mastery was one of the most dreaded rule mastery across the Myriad Realms.

”That is good to know. What about the Freedom Fighters? You promised me that you would make them pay. Donʼt tell me you have changed your mind about them?” Colleen did not bother to dig into how Wyatt managed to dispose of the plague egg, by now everyone close to him knew he had many secrets. Rather focused on Freedom Fighters. She was worried that having spent time with Freedom Fighters Wyatt might have been infected by their so-called cause like their many naive members. Otherwise, how did Wyatt manage to come to Sky Blossom City?

”Well, they are on their last leg. You might have noticed with all the shit going in on Southern Capital, you should take with your daughter. She should be fully aware of their current situation. Talk to her and get back to me. I would like to know her thoughts on this.”
