Having successfully removed the hypnotic suggestion planted in Cortneyʼs body, Wyatt then lit up the calamity incense stick that he had prepared to wake Cortney and Bloodette from their sleep. Soon the aroma of the calamity incense stick filled the atmosphere of the blood rock cave.

Smelling the aroma, Cortney and Bloodette did not wake up, rather slept comfortably. Confused, Wyatt wondered if he should not have tried to remove the hallucination part of the calamity incense stick. The fragrance of the world calamity tree had a strong hallucination effect that powerful beings like to abuse for fun. Wyatt did not want his friend to get addicted to this fragrance. So he had removed that effect from it while retaining its ability to negate the Anesthesia Dragonʼs sleep breath. Wyatt wondered if doing so had lessened the effect of the fragrance.

Wyatt checked on Cortney and Bloodette using his soul pupils. To find that their current sleeping state was very different from their sleeping state earlier. Currently, they were not being forced to sleep rather they were choosing to sleep as if they were having a great time sleeping, this was the other effect of the fragrance of calamity incense stick which even the Elder Anesthesia Dragon appreciated.

It was because of this effect the Anesthesia Dragons allied with the World Calamity Tree and why the Elder Anesthesia Dragon Raukaul planned to groom Wyatt. With this ability, they could prolong their sleep even after their millennium sleeping period had ended.

Seeing that Cortney and Bloodette were no longer under the effect of the Anesthesia Dragonʼs sleep breath, Wyatt planned to head back into the seed world. With his work here done, he had no plans of waking them up or waiting for them to wake up, but as he prepared to leave Bloodette suddenly woke up, yelling in panic, ”Cortney!” As such even Cortney woke up.

”Cortney,” Bloodette continued as she tried to make sense of what was happening and her surroundings. Seeing, Wyatt she asked, ”Wyatt, Cortney, What happened?”

”I am up!” Cortney said, waking up with no recollection of what had happened. She only remembers trying to practice blood rule within Bloodetteʼs innate rune, but the next thing she knows she is waking up with Bloodette yelling her name.

”Cortney,” seeing Cortney next to her all fine and dandy, Bloodette immediately jumped into her embrace and cried, letting out all her feelings.

Wyatt did not want any part of this so he planned to silently leave however, confused Cortney looked at him seeking answers, ”Whatʼs going on? Why is she crying?”

”Sigh,” Wyatt sighed feeling the window of his escape was closed.

”Bloodette, why is your realm so low?” Cortney exclaimed, having felt that Bloodetteʼs realm was no longer strong and something she could not gauge, instead it had fallen to the beginning of the card student level, barely above the mortal realm.

”...” Bloodette did not answer, she just continued to weep in Cortneyʼs embrace.

”Wyatt, what is going on why is she crying, and what happened to her strength?” getting no reply from Bloodette, who was weeping inconsolably in her embrace, she could only continue to console Bloodette by gently running her hands over her head and back. And turn to Wyatt for answers.

”Itʼs a long story where do I start,” Wyatt said, crossing his arms. Then he narrated, ”Bloodette almost died trying to break the dungeon seal. The only reason she is alive after the punishment the dungeon seal imposed on her for trying to break it is because of her supreme beingʼs immortal physique if not a hundred lives would not be enough for her to survive its wrath. It was hard to watch seeing her suffer in an extended coma.”

”Why would she try to break the dungeon seal? She knows better than to do that. Wyatt, what happened? Where was I during all this happened?” Cortney asked in shock. She knew better than anyone how harshly the dungeon seal would react to Bloodetteʼs rebellion. Which was why she was puzzled as to why she did not recall something so important and where she was. Honestly, she did not feel like she could have missed it as according to her it has not been that long. Her sense of time was still weeks behind.

Wyatt narrated the whole event to Cortney, helping her understand what happened and what was happening. He did not try to hide his role in all of this. That the only reason Cortney and the rest of his friends were targeted was because of him. Though he had managed to help them before it was too late, Wyatt knew that the situation could have been worse if he had not caught on to Handsome Foxʼs plans.

Out of all his friends, Bloodette and Cortney paid the heaviest price. Especially Bloodette. He did not know how to make up to her. Well, helping her get out of the Dungeon seal would be a start.

”I see,” Cortneyʼs embrace on Bloodette tightened, she could not imagine what Bloodette could have been through. Unlike her who had the orphanage, Bloodette only had her. Cortney then turned to Wyatt and said, ”Wyatt this is not your fault. You do not need to blame yourself for what happened. It could have been the enemies of any of us. I am sure if the circle were to come to target you because of me you would not blame me for that right? So chill. Besides you did your best to fix everything.”

”You are too easy-going, I donʼt think I could forgive you so easily if someone were to target my friends and me because of your mistake even though you are one of my friends,” Wyatt said honestly, since he judged his friends with higher standards, he had to judge himself with similar standards. He cannot have a different set of rules for himself.
