"Boy, do you know what you just said was enough for you to be arrested for the charge of treason?" Colleen thundered, seeing the boy not only challenge her authority but try to force her to follow his way. And she was not lying about the treason charge.

What the boy just said could easily be translated as he was willing to give VR-Slime cards for free to enemies of the Southern Region whereas he did not plan to sell a single VR-Slime card to the Southern Region.

Such words were enough for any regular card creationist to be locked in the deep of the Southern Royal family prison for the rest of their life to never see the light of the day or even be executed.

Fortunately, the boy wasn't just any regular card creationist. He was the discoverer of silver Milk power and the creator of the VR-Slime card, the only low-level card with the miraculous 'Soul Energy Digestion' effect.

"It seems my talents are not appreciated in the Southern region, I heard that the central region offers lower tax rates for the card apprentices with higher privilege rank" Before I could finish my sentence Colleen yelled, "Kid, are you threatening me?"

"Don't get full of yourself, not everything revolves around you. I am just exploring the options that would be best for my prospects. Besides, if I move to the central region, I will save a ton of time in my commute when I enter Morningstar University," With two of the three mischiefs, Supreme Leader and Matron, living in the central region I would never consider moving to Central Region I just said this to p.i.s.s Colleen off. To let her feel how I was feeling for once.

"You," Before Colleen could continue to yell at the boy her grimoire rang notifying her of a call. Summoning her grimoire, Colleen checked the caller ID to see if the call was more important than disciplining the boy.

Seeing that the call was from her beloved but scary daughter, Colleen turned to look at Ann feeling that the timing of her daughter's call was uncanny. Noticing Ann avoiding eye contact with her, Colleen felt suspicious. Yet she answered her daughter's call as she had no choice.

"h.e.l.lo" After a 2-minute one-sided chat, her daughter hung up the call and Colleen stared daggers at her granddaughter and said, "Telling on me to your mom, really Ann? I did not expect this from you."

"I am sorry, Grandma. You left me no choice," Ann apologized to her grandma for calling her mother.

Seeing the heated argument between her grandma and the boy Ann was worried because neither one of them was willing to back down. The argument kept escalating, to the point where each of them was threatening the other. Ann did not want to choose sides between her family and the boy but she felt the boy was right.

Since the family was not willing to reduce the boy's taxes out of respect for their partners.h.i.+p then why should the boy be willing to reduce the price of his VR-Slime cards for them?

Listening to the boy make threats about moving to the central region after being threatened by her grandma, Ann panicked and immediately called her mother to report her grandma.

Feeling that her grandma's actions could cause the boy to leave the Southern Region which would be a huge loss to the Southern region. Since she could not stop her grandma, she decided to call in the big guns before her grandma harmed the family's interest irreversibly.

"Boy, you're lucky that my granddaughters like you," saying that Colleen unfroze the surrounding s.p.a.ce and left before giving Ann one last disappointed stare.

Ann fidgeted feeling her grandma's stare but this time she did not avoid eye contact as she knew she did nothing wrong. However, to her surprise, amidst her disappointed stare her grandma winked at her and mouthed, 'Go, get him, girl' before leaving.

Ann's feelings for the boy were clear to everyone but only a few knew that she was struggling with a pang of guilt. And one of them was Colleen. Though Ann was not being subtle about her pursuit of winning the boy's favor. She was being very subtle about the guilt she felt trying to seduce her sister's lover.

Ann and Anna were not normal twins, in a way they were the two sides of the same coin. The family had accepted Ann with all her flaws, so she did not want to do anything to sadden them. Like stealing Anna's love. Despite following her heart the guilt ate away at her but seeing her grandma root for her Ann suddenly teared up.

Colleen knew Anna struggled with sharing her life with Ann but she believed Ann to be as much of her granddaughter as Anna was to her. And considering their situation, as a conservative, Colleen could barely tolerate Anna's party lifestyle however she hoped that her granddaughter had a single husband rather than two husbands. Therefore she openly rooted for Ann and the boy even though she knew that Anna and the boy were an item.

Once the boy asked her to reduce his taxes in exchange for him reducing the price of his VR-Slime cards, Colleen knew that she had lost all merits to push her agenda on the boy.

So instead of giving the boy satisfaction of winning the argument, Colleen decided to make an opportunity for her granddaughter to get closer to the boy.

Not to mention recently the boy seemed to be drifting apart from the Southern royal family except for his soft spot for Anna. Colleen knew improving the boy's impression of her or the family would be difficult so she wanted to add Ann to the list of the boy's trusted confidants because, unlike Anna who only cared about pleasing the boy, Ann would try to improve the impression of the family in the boy's mind.
