"If not the demon merchant codex, where else could he be hiding the item, we have already searched every inch of his body," Handsome Fox said in annoyance.

"His physical body but not his spiritual body. Since it is a soul protection item, it would not be surprising that it is a spiritual item," Muth Diya proposed, from his tone, it could not be more obvious that he thought Handsome Fox did not know about spiritual items, that could be carried by the spiritual bodies. It was typical of a devil merchant from dark realms to think this despite knowing that Handsome Fox as a devil merchant had been to the inter-realm city, a city in a spiritual plane created and equipped with many superior spiritual items.

"You" Handsome Fox was losing patience with Muth Diya's superior mentality however he soon controlled his emotions, then shaking Ezra whom he had grabbed the neck he asked Muth Diya, "How am I supposed to strip a soul protection spiritual item from his spiritual body genius?"

"Oh, I see your point," it finally dawned upon Muth Diya that the main reason they were trying to steal the soul-protection spiritual item from Ezra was not because of their greed for the item but so that Handsome Fox could use his ability on Ezra but it turns out they could not get to the item without braking its soul protection ability which they failed to do in the first place.

"It seems you f.u.c.ked up," Handsome Fox was quick to throw all the blame on Muth Diya coming to the conclusion that regardless of where Ezra hid the soul protection item, on his spiritual body or in his demon codex, they would not get to either of them.

"What you mean I f.u.c.ked up? We both did," Muth Diya corrected Handsome Fox while his mind was thinking of ways he could kill Ezra without triggering the contract.

Unfortunately, none came to Muth Diya's mind on the spot. Prior to this, he was so confident that this plan would work that he did not think of this beforehand. After all, who would have guessed that a Card Master would have such a card up his sleeve? Handsome Fox's ability was unique and similar types were rare even in the Dark Realm so it was surprising to see that Ezra's elder gave him a soul protection spiritual item which was rarer.

"What do we do now?" Handsome Fox did not argue with Muth Diya about who was to be blamed, instead asked him how could they handle the mess in their hands.

"What else, I will go on a short walk with my son for sightseeing while you do everything, I mean everything, it takes for you to reach your goals," Muth Diya was vague with his words so as not to trigger the contract but his intention could not be more obvious.

"What if it does not work? The safe is a lot tougher than it looks," Handsome Fox said swinging Ezra around like a rag doll.

"When then I can only advise you to erase all evidence, I promise to go along with any story you come up with to cover up the mess up," Muth Diya promised Handsome Fox that he would help him cover up in case he ends up killing Ezra. He could not hope Handsome Fox did not have a problem with this because he really was having trouble thinking of a way to kill Ezra without incurring the penalty of the contract Ezra had with Blight Brood Club.

"However, I do not like to do a thankless job," Handsome Fox reminded Muth Diya that since he was the one cleaning up the mess he should be compensated appropriately. Especially when all of this mess could have been avoided if not for Muth Diya's plan.

"Fine, you can have the remaining lease on my shack in the inter-realm city but this time get the job done," Muth Diya offered up his lease of a small shack in the inter-realm city to Handsome Fox as compensation, which was not cheap as asides from the expensive lease he had spent a fortune on renovating the shack to his taste with expensive and lavish spiritual furniture and items.

"Good, you and your son take your time enjoying the scenery of the Card World so I have enough time to clean up the mess here," Handsome Fox had a huge grin on his face as spoke these words, indicating that he was very satisfied with Muth Diya's compensation.

"Hahaha," Wyatt suddenly laughed gaining the attention of the demiG.o.d and the devil alike. Then he added, "You idiots don't learn from your mistakes, do you? Hahaha, however thanks to your idiosyncrasy I will soon be rich man."

"I starting to miss your snarky comments, let us see if you will able to come up with new ones when my friend here leaves?" Handsome Fox yanked Ezra closer to his face and then added, "Get prepared you are going to live the most exciting hours of your life soon."

"Man, you guys are dumb. I really do not understand how you managed to reach the pinnacle of your respective power systems and become devil merchants. Or does the myriad realms look after dumb dumb like you guys? Otherwise, I seriously wonder how you guys managed not to strangle yourself with the placenta in your mother's womb," Wyatt's words grew harsher having finally achieved the result he was seeking from the experiment he was conducting using his body as the experiment subject.

Wyatt had found the method to remove the roots and seeds of Handsome Fox's ability from the victim's bodies without harming their souls, but this was not one hundred percent foolproof since the data available was only on how the roots of the seed burrowed into soul pathways, not the soul itself, Hive AI has tried its best to fill the gaps in the data and conduct simulation considering every possible variable and developed the method which satisfied Wyatt's requirements but nothing was certain until there has been a practical trial which not possible as of now. Wyatt could only risk it.
