Bidding goodbye to JiJi Wyatt returned to the seed world. He was torn between healing his soul and letting the Southern Royal family know that Handsome Fox was Gideon Grim. For Wyatt, finding Gideon Grim as soon as possible took utmost importance. However, so did healing his soul.

Healing the soul based on the new method developed by Hive AI was a lengthy process that could not be rushed. The new method developed by Hive AI did not just heal Wyatt's soul but helped him cultivate his soul, it was a method made specifically to help him with the soul division power system he had discovered. Out of the myriad civilizations in the cosmos, only a few civilizations could understand the benefits of soul mutation and division, and out of those few, only a fewer civilizations were lucky enough to develop a power system based on soul mutation or division. But unfortunately, they all had the misfortune of being targeted by the devils.

Thankfully the Infinity Library has preserved these civilizations' legacy in its walls. Otherwise, Wyatt would have to spend a lot of time and resources to retrace their steps to develop the most suitable method of soul mutation and division cultivation for him.

If it was just about healing his soul Wyat could have just bought an expensive soul-healing elixir from the devil merchant code, but no, this process was about Wyatt taking the right step into the soul mutation and division power system. Wyatt had already stepped into this power system, he had forced his soul to mutate several times and he now had 12 consciousnesses at the card master level. Which was impressive considering that he had stumbled on this power system and had no reference except for a few monsters. But when you see what the other civilizations had achieved it was not impressive.

The knowledge of other civilizations that were used by the Hive AI was what made the soul mutation and division method developed by it incredible.

Wyatt wanted to use his damaged soul as an opportunity for him to reorganize his subpar soul mutation and division power system by using the method developed by the Hive AI just like back when he used the fact that William Bright cut his soul to get started with the soul mutation and division power system.

Wyatt believed that if he played his cards right then his strength would skyrocket by several folds. In the card world, in Wyatt's age group, n.o.body was his opponent but in the dark realm, Wyatt did not have the confidence to go against the progenies of the ruler and pseudo-ruler cla.s.s forces.

If their cub were that powerful then one could only imagine how strong the elders fostering such talents were, especially their leader.

The Southern capital incident was like a wake-up call for Wyatt, it had shown him that that the card world was no longer a big enough stage for him. An important figure like DemiG.o.d Norley using his daughter as a reason to get to know Wyatt was a clear indication of this.

Wyatt's goalpost was no longer in the card world but in the capital of the dark realm. Wyatt could display the power of a devil by borrowing power from multiple SSS-rank curses, and so could the progenies of the ruler and pseudo-ruler cla.s.s forces by using the items given by their forces.

In the end, it came to who had more cards or the most capable card. Wyatt believed that the soul mutation and division method would not only make a perfect addition to his a.r.s.enal but also a strong arrow in his query. Therefore he could not rush and take chances with healing and correctly restarting on the soul mutation and division power system.

Considering all of that and that the finding of Gideon Grim involved the fate of billions of people, Wyatt did not hesitate to remove the s.p.a.ce separation only to find that Susan was awake and Dredre arguing with her while Corey was acting as peacemaker meanwhile Park appeared to be refining Corey's soul power.

As Corey's ego flame, Park could use her flames to help refine Corey's soul energy similar to how Wyatt's soul energy was pa.s.sively refined by his extra consciousnesses. Making Corey's origin card even more enviable in Wyatt's eyes. After all, she had a veteran demon on par with the Seven Princes of h.e.l.l as her nanny.

"Wyatt," Dredre who had the highest authority in the seed world after Wyatt immediately noticed Wyatt's arrival as he lifted the s.p.a.ce separation. So she stopped arguing with Susan over who was Wyatt's manager and immediately greeted him.

With Dredre's exclamation, Susan followed the pixie's line of sight to find Wyatt. The last time she saw him was during Laura Hill's family dispute. After that, Wyatt was forcefully taken to the Southern Captial for his safety and did not have time to say goodbye. During the separation, they talked over the grimoire but that was not the same as talking in person.

During the Corey and Joe Hill fight had Susan known that was going to be the last time she saw Wyatt till today, then she would not have been reserved with her feelings even if the Southern Emperor was right there next to them.

However, now that Wyatt was finally in front of her, her body would not move, her mind was a mess, but her heart was excited and racing with antic.i.p.ation. She wanted to yell out that she missed him but her mouth would not open. She wanted to get close to him sniff his smell, check his body, and ask if he was okay. But her d.a.m.ned body was not responsive.

Susan had played this instance of meeting Wyatt in her mind numerous times. Every time she boldly confessed her feelings to Wyatt while jumping into his embrace but she never felt the warmth of Wyatt's body nor received an answer for her confession.

Susan was scared, she had finally found the courage to pursue what she wanted but was worried that she was not what Wyatt wanted. In her mind, why would Wyatt choose to be with a n.o.body like her when he could be with the jewel of the southern region, Anna?

At first, Susan was not worried about this, but during their separation, she heard many rumors about Anna and Wyatt. Not that she believed the rumors but she felt that the jewel of the South would be the perfect match for a diamond-like Wyatt than a lump of coal like her. The whole southern region approved of Anna and Wyatt as a couple, who was she to deny them?

These were the reasons why Susan's body did not respond and her mind was a mess. However, her heart knew what it wanted, so it was excited and raced at the mere sight of Wyatt.

"Susan, I missed you," Wyatt said locking eyes with Susan. Her turbulent thoughts and emotions became apparent to him. For some who had excellent deduction skills, he could not tell what was Susan so conflicted about.

"Wyatt, Susan say she is your manager. Tell her I am your manager," Dredre immediately complained to Wyatt. When Dredre learned what a manager did from Susan, she felt that she was Wyatt's manager.

"Dredre, it seems you have met Susan. Consider her as your counterpart for me in the card world but soon that is going to change," Wyatt said, not taking any sides. However, he continued to wait for Susan's reply which was taking too long considering their relations.h.i.+p.

"Are you mad at me?" Wyatt asked Susan, seeing the complicated look in her eyes.

Listening to Wyatt's words Susan jolted awake from her conflicted state, then she shook her head and replied, "I missed you too. But what do you mean by that will change soon? Are you planning to fire me?" Susan's tone held a self-mockery.

"Why would you say that?" Wyatt asked Susan in confusion but soon explained, "I meant that you will not only be my exclusive manager just in the card world but in the entire myriad realms, thanks to this." Wyatt summoned his grimoire and took out a devil merchant recommendation token.

*Gasp* Corey who was silently watching from the sidelines gasped in astonishment knowing what token in Wyatt's hand was. Feeling Corey's turmoil, Park awakened from her practice, and looking at the token in Wyatt's hand she exclaimed, "A devil merchant recommendation token!"

Wyatt ignored the Corey duo and moved closer to Susan. Who inquired, "What is a devil merchant recommendation token?"

"It allows any being from the myriad realms to become a demon/devil merchant," Dredre answered, understanding what Wyatt meant earlier.You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin

"Dredre, don't worry you're still my only book guide pixie," Wyatt a.s.sured Dredre but then he remembered JiJi and felt guilty towards Dredre. JiJi was his temporary book guide pixie but it blossomed into a good friends.h.i.+p. Shaking his head Wyatt noted to make it up to Dredre later in some way.
