Why did you not heal me back in the arena? I asked after experiencing a mysterious force was.h.i.+ng down in my body and healing all the torn and bruised organs, muscles, and bones within a matter of seconds.

Then you would not have let me carry you Anna responded innocently but the sly glint in her eyes gave her away.

Hows Corey? I asked, looking at the unconscious Corey being treated by a girl who addressed Anna as her Cousin.

She is in a coma of sorts. Her body and mind have withstood a lot of burden being possessed by a power higher than her realm. For now, there is nothing to worry about. With enough rest, she should be able to recover and my card should help fasten the recovery process. Instead of Anna, the girl treating Corey answered.

This is I asked Anna not knowing how to address her cousin.

She is Luna Lorn. My Cousin and old fart Lorenzos granddaughter. She is here to meet the great discoverer of silver milk powder. Anna introduced her Cousin Luna and her purpose of visit.

Annas choice of words like great left me a bit shy for being called so in the presence of two card emperors.

h.e.l.lo, Mr. Wyatt. I conducted the experiment you suggested to derive silver milk powder. The results were as promised. But I noticed that you made use of too many mortal components in the process, making it a bit more complicated than it should be. I think that using appropriate cards as a replacement for those components would yield a more efficient process. Luna did not shy and directly talked about her agenda as she continued to nourish Corey using her card.

Miss Luna, you are right. Due to my lack of knowledge in the field of experimental cards and my low budget I had to make use of mortal components instead of their card counterparts. Feel free to make any modifications you deem fit. This way I believe that the production process can be more efficient and faster. My knowledge about different kinds of Cards in this world was still too shallow. So I left the process of modifying the silver milk powder extraction process to Luna. She seems to already have a vague picture of where to start.

Considering your age, your shallow knowledge of experimental cards is quite understandable but your knowledge of mortal technology and research is profound, and the silver milk powder is the evidence. What Luna is indirectly asking is how come my knowledge about mortal technology and research is profound for my age but knowledge of experimental cards is shallow.

This world revolves around cards, so why would a young man of my age spend time mastering boring mortal technology instead of spending time fascinated with Cards, like the other teenagers of my age.

There were too many loopholes to my existence in this world. How do I explain to these people that what I do is normal with my experience and prowess without revealing my secrets? That was impossible so the best course of action for now when faced with such questions, would be to act ignorant with an innocent smile pasted on my mug.

I guess every genius has a side which cannot be explained by common sense. Luna, how about you take Corey to her family? They should be worried. Seeing me uncomfortable with Lunas question Anna made an excuse for me and sent Luna out gaining privacy for both of us.

*Sigh* letting out a sigh I comfortably laid on the couch. Anna walked next to me and lifted my head. After sitting down she rested my head on her lap. Under the softness of Annas lap pillow, I felt more comfortable.

What are you up to? I asked as I smelled the pleasant fragrance of Annas body.

Waiting for you to explain yourself. Said Anna referring to 6 ego elementals that I summoned during the duel earlier.

The whole world a.s.sumed that Anna gifted me the Ego Elementals but how do I explain myself to Anna? I had not thought this far ahead when using the Ego Elementals.

Dont you dare feign ignorance in front of me Fine, if this is the way you want to act let me help you. How did you turn the 6 broken runes into ego elementals in less than 20 minutes? How are you able to control the power of the rules so well when you just forged your ego gem? Anna did not want to dig into my secrets but now after all these events if she did not then that would be foolish of her.

Anna, I will try to answer your questions without lying to you as much as possible but could you only ask the questions that cause you concern? I did not plan on lying to the people whom I trusted as friends.

I already promised you I will not dig in your secret until you are ready and I will do so. But the comprehension and control of broken rules you showcase are very alarming. So I can not help but ask whether you did something questionable to achieve this. Anna nodded in agreement to my request and asked the question which raised her concerns.

I understand what you are concerned about but let me a.s.sure you that you have nothing to be worried about. I would not do anything stupid to gain strength. Annas concern was legit, to her the rise in my strength was worrying but for me who knew all the secrets behind its growth, it was normal.

I will take your word for it. But Let me tell you a story about the demiG.o.d Redfall who was stuck in the early demiG.o.d realm to achieve a breakthrough he secretly cultivated humans as domestic animals and drained their blood essence to increase the comprehension of his world rule Blood. Rest is the same old.

He is just a popular example but there are more out there. I believe you are wise enough to not indulge in such things. But if you are, I will be one to kill you. Annas words sent a chill down my spine.

Just when I wanted to a.s.sure her once again, the VIP box staff walked in after knocking and conveyed, your highness, Clown mask from the Circle wishes to have an audience with you?
