"Good, I want you to let my friends and other card apprentice from the Southern Capital go," Adriene demanded Wyatt seeing him show willingness to compromise. She unconsciously took a few steps back, fearing that she was too close to Wyatt. Her action made Wyatt wonder if she had forgotten that she was trapped within his rule domain. However, he ignored it as the only reason he showed a willingness to compromise was to give her a sense of security and stop her from rashly committing suicide and letting the entity trapped in her body escape. "And? Would you liketo apologize to all of them for not allowing them to killor would you prefer it if I washed my neck and presented it to them to behead me?" Wyatt replied sarcastically to Adriene's demand with a sneer on his face making it clear to Adriene how foolish her demand was. Wyatt's words were the hint enough for Adriene to understand that she would be dreaming to think that she, her friends, and the rest of the card apprentices from the southern capital would leave here without paying for their sins against Wyatt. His tone could not be more transparent about his intent. "Wyatt, I know we are in the wrong but you have already killed enough of us, please forgive us this once, and let us go," Listening to Wyatt's sarcastic words she understood that Wyatt was angry with them and their behavior and it would not simple to get him to let them go even if she were to use herself and the entity with her to bargain. However, Adriene could only appeal to the human side of Wyatt. Hoping that he would find it in him to forgive them and let the bygones be bygones. This way they could put an end to this right here and right now without the adults getting involved. Adriene knew this was a long shot however now that she had access to Wyatt's ears she could not help but try every means at her disposal. "Does that mean you no longer want revenge for your sisters that I killed?" Wyatt asked Adriene seeing that she seemed to have regained her calmness enough to preach to him about forgiveness and moving on. "You—" Adriene was excited being provoked by Wyatt who shamelessly dragged her dead sisters into their compromise. The rage she had felt learning about the death of her fellow sisters, the srage that had been overshadowed by the despair she felt being abandoned by her inner goddess once again resurfaced with Wyatt's taunt. However, this tAdriene did not let it control her into doing something stupid like fighting against Wyatt who even her inner goddess was scared of and did not dare to face. Swallowing her anger, Adriene looked at Wyatt and said, "If you are willing to forgive us then I too am willing to forgive you." She was not just saying this but Adriene's words were genuine. Then, she continued saying, "Come, let us move on from this together." Adriene did swear to get vengeance for her fallen sister however looking at it from Wyatt's side she realized that they were in the wrong. No, she was wrong. She should have stopped her sisters when they thought that she was stronger than the boy who was said to have defeated the devil. After all, unlike her sister she knew how strong she was. Yet, she not only corrected them but also followed them to the Sky Blossom City hoping to use the Southern Hope as a stepping stone to prove herself to the Southern Ruler. Cto think of it why did she think that she who could barely borrow the strength of a demigod from her inner goddess would be able to defeat a card apprentice who was famously known for killing a devil whose race was considered to be overall stronger than card apprentice in the srealm. Adriene thought hard about her mistakes that led to this event, only to find that the girls from her faction that Wyatt had killed were the reason why she had decided to follow Cervos and JJ to the Sky Blossom City, use the so-called Southern Hope as the stepping stone to prove herself to the Southern Ruler. At this moment, Adriene asked herself, how cthe only people to die at the hands of Wyatt were the people who provoked her against him? As this realization donned upon her, Adriene sharply looked at Wyatt monitoring his expression she asked him, "Wait a minute, did you know? How did you know when even I realized it just now?" "Did I know what?" Wyatt looked at Adriene as if he was looking at a crazy lady. One second she was talking about moving on and another second she asked him something totally unrelated. "Cto think of it of all the card apprentices you killed most of them were from the Circle and the Yin-yang harmony sect," Adriene exclaimed as if she had uncovered something huge. Then, she mumbled, "Why would you do that? Is it because they were the ones who started the rumor that you only landed the last blow on the devil when Field Marshal Heatsend and Ex-Field Marshal Henricks were the ones who fought the devil? It has to be because it was because of that rumor almost all of us have gathered here to defeat you and gain quick fame. But, how did you know that? After all, it that happened in the Southern capital and it tooktill now to figure out what is truly happening here."

"..." Wyatt grew silent hearing Adriene was starting to see the conspiracy of the Circle and the Matron wanting to see how far she could uncover what was truly happening here. However, he wasn't sure she would be able to uncover the whole truth as she like most of the world wasn't aware of Matron and her paw clan.
