After talking to Jill, I was lost in thought thinking about what she meant by, 'People with real decision-making power.' Who are these guys that Jill spoke of? It appears as if they seem to be maintaining the balance between the royal families, the central region nobles, the government, and their allies. And also keeping the Empire at the bay. Who the fuck was strong enough to tell all the world leaders what to do. Who are these guys? Are they representing some kind of organization? Was Jill's father one of them?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe thought that there was more to the world than what I saw through the Clown Mask's future vision frightened me. Clown Mask was a small-time player in the supreme leader's plans, and the amount of information she had access to was very limited. Most of what she knew in the future vision was general news or rumors she heard. The real detailed information of how the Supreme leader, Matron, and Emissary of Light came to power was not known to Clown Mask. All she knew was how their organization operated, the powers these three revealed to the world, and war news of what transpired in the different regions during the war. Knowing that there were many more people as capable as these three, made me feel like I wasn't doing enough to protect what I held dear.
As for Jill's information about the silver milk powder being confiscated, I did not worry much about it because there wasn't much I could do about it, all I could do was sell the shares I had in my hand before they became worthless as Jill suggested.
"Halt and identify yourself," hearing this I awakened from my thoughts only to see that I had arrived where the Fine Gold floaters were being detained. The soldier who stopped me was familiar it was one of the Garcia twins that I was supposed to help create his origin card. Then I saw another familiar figure behind him, it was Corey, she seemed to be pissed, as she said, "Wyatt, you are here. Tell this guy to let me in. I am calling the damn cow but she is ignoring my calls"
By damn cow, Corey meant her godmother Anna. I guess she has not learned less despite suffering an embracing punishment from Anna. Ignoring Corey, I glanced and looked at Ollie Garcia and said, "Ollie Garcia, right. You know who I am, so why are you asking me to identify myself."
I knew Ollie Garcia was doing this to make things difficult for me so I was blunt with him. But hearing me Ollie Garcia explained himself, "Due to the recent demon worshipper attack, the security has been made tight, I need to check your identity to see that you are not a demon worshiper in disguise."
"I see," saying that I summoned my golden grimoire and let Ollie scan the QR code on it.
"Sorry for the trouble, Master Wyatt," Ollie apologized having verified my identity, and then asked, "Master Wyatt, this is a restricted region please state your reason for visiting."
"Those floaters are mine and I am here to meet people detained in them," I answered Ollie seeing that he was just doing his job. It seems this guy's opinion of me had changed since we last met.
"Master Wyatt, they are being processed and will be realized soon. So I can only ask you wait till they are released," Ollie informed but before I question him, Corey jumped in saying, "How come you gave him an explanation but kept quiet when I asked you? Are you looking down on me? You do know that I am helping him create your origin card, right? I warn you if I am in a foul mood the chances of me successfully creating a card decrease."
"Corey shut the fuck up. I don't care if you want to ruin your reputation but when you are working for me be mindful of your words, don't you dare drag my reputation with yours," Hearing Corey threaten using her status as card creationist I lost it. When it comes to my professional life, I hate to abuse my powers and stick to my morals and ethical code. I expected the same from employees, which involved Corey.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What? Did I say something wrong? I was speaking the truth when I said my success rate of card creation drops when I am in a foul mood. Wyatt, not everyone is a genius like you," Corey argued, she seemed to be pissed at me for some reason. Was it because I asked Susan to move to the central academic region? But she did not show it when we met at the cemetery earlier.
"You don't get smart with me," I said then glanced at Ollie only to hear him say, "Sorry for the inconvenience, Master Wyatt. Please excuse me as I check how long it will take and see if I can do anything to hasten the release process."
Seeing Ollie head into speaking with his superiors I could not help but think that if Anna was here all this could be avoided.
"You, who gave you the right to move big sis Susan to the central academic region? How can you let her go to such a big city all alone? Do you not care for her now that you have become the son-in-law of the southern royal family? Yes, I heard. Just wait, let me see what you have to say for yourself when I tell big sis Susan about this. You, men, are all the same," Corey did not pause to take a breath just fired away, accusing the boy of whatnot. Revealing the irritation she felt knowing that her mother was willing to move to a foreign city for this man and abandon her.
"Are you done? I did ask Susan to move to the central academic region but it was her decision to go through with it. Yes, I have an unnamed relationship with Anna but I am not the southern royal family's son-in-law. And don't accuse me of not caring for Susan, only I know how much she means to me. Lastly, is this the tone you should be using to talk with some who could potentially be your future daddy," I explained everything Corey accused me of.
"Wyatt, I am going to kill you today," Corey exploded with anger and embarrassment she felt hearing the boy taunt her.
