Though Corey and the rest did not say it, they looked disappointed and a little let down seeing Wyatt would not share how he killed the a.s.sa.s.sin under a fraction of a second. Especially, the Field Marshal. After all, she had been struggling trying to deduce the a.s.sa.s.sin's ability and to catch him. "Well, Corey, since you guys want to know, I will simplify it. Umm I teleported into the a.s.sa.s.sin's spiritual channel and detonated an SSS-rank blood explosion curse in it before leaving. The poor guy was dead before he knew what was happening," Wyatt explained as simply as he could without going into detail about how he did what he did. However, learning what he actually did, the Field Marshal had an eureka moment as she yelled, "I was wondering how the a.s.sa.s.sin was able to maintain his intangible state, he was drawing soul energy from the spiritual plane through his spiritual channel." In his intangible state, the a.s.sa.s.sin could not draw air or soul energy from the physical plane. If not for him being able to perceive the vibrations of his surroundings he would literally be deaf, dumb, and blind in that state unable to find the target of his a.s.sa.s.sination. However, the range of his perception wasn't high. This was the main reason why the a.s.sa.s.sin failed to kill Asong the first few times. Every time the a.s.sa.s.sin would surface to conform to Asong's location the Field Marshal would get in his way. Just when he had found Asong's hideout and noted down her distinctive vibration he ran into Wyatt. Having figured out how the a.s.sa.s.sin was able to sustain in his intangible form, Field Marshal could not help but look at Wyatt because teleporting into enemies' spiritual channels was not something a card apprentice could do. It wasn't simply possible unless they had a special physique or trait or origin card.
Since there weren't any known instances of such physique or trait or origin card Field Marshal believed Wyatt might be the first if he was telling the truth. There were physiques like the 'Right Eye of the World' that allowed one to enter the other's spiritual channel from a spiritual plane if the card apprentice had not closed the spiritual plane end of their spiritual plane but there wasn't any mention of one that would allow the card apprentice to directly teleport into their opponent's spiritual channel.
What baffled the Field Marshal further was Wyatt was able to access his grimoire and abilities in someone else's spiritual channel it was not only unheard of but it was simply scary. So much so that Field Marshal Heatsend instinctively closed the spiritual plane end of her spiritual plane. In the instance of the physique 'Right Eye of the World' the only known user Louis Forger wasn't able to move in someone else's spiritual channel except for hitchhiking through them, allowing her to instantly teleport around her opponents. The Field Marshal was right to be scared of the ability Wyatt spoke of because if she wasn't careful Wyatt could use the same tactics to kill her just as easily he killed the a.s.sa.s.sin before she knew it. If Wyatt were to suddenly drop multiple SSS-rank curses in her spiritual channel before she could figure out how to remove them she would be dead. Even if she figured it out, she could not guarantee that she would succeed on her first try. The more the Field Marshal thought of this the more she grew wary of Wyatt's new ability and decided to research skills to s.h.i.+eld her spiritual channel from foreign invasion. "Won't the demiG.o.d's divinity protect them from external invasions?" one of Asong's semi-demiG.o.d guards asked Wyatt getting the jest of how Wyatt had managed to kill the demiG.o.d realm a.s.sa.s.sin under a fraction of a second. "It should but it's not omnipotent, if the invader hid their presence and were quick enough then could get away with it before the divinity could register the invasion. In this case, that delay proved deadly. Besides you do not have to worry about something like that unless you meet a freak like him. The odds of that are almost nil but have the one in front of us so we can't totally ignore it," the Field Marshal went out of her way to explain finding the topic interesting. The semi-demiG.o.d guard nodded politely a little excited for being able to strike up a conversation with one of the the top ten strongest in the card world. Even though it was a small one, it was enough for him and he did not try to forcefully continue the conversation and make a fool of himself. As Asong's bodyguards, they were taught to have to act when meeting a VIP. After all, her work brought her face-to-face with many VIPs daily. "There you have it, that's what happened," Wyatt said as turned to Asong and bid her goodbye, "Asong. it's up to you what you decide. I will no longer intrude on you, good night." Then he prepared to head back to his seed world and get some rest while Corey tagged along and the Field Marshal a.s.sumed her post in the skies of the Sky Blossom City. As for dealing with Henricks, he was trapped in the Field Marshal's mystic realm he wasn't going anywhere. Wyatt planned to let Ransom wear Henricks down before he approached him again with his proposal of the freedom fighters serving under him. It wasn't going to be easy but they did not have many options left, so Wyatt had a better chance of them joining him than one might think. With proper incentives, he was sure the freedom fighter rather join Wyatt than disband declaring bankruptcy. Even though they were giving back the dungeon to the Southern region, they had a lot of enemies. Now that these enemies had them cornered Wyatt was pretty sure these enemies would prefer to finish what they started. "Wyatt, can you really teleport into anybody's spiritual channel?" Corey asked Wyatt in concern after learning from little Baem that it was difficult for one to defend against such attacks. What concerned her most was not the ability itself but the fact that Wyatt was growing stronger and unfathomable day by day. The gap between them kept increasing and she did not know when they were no longer equals in strength and she had to catch up with Wyatt. She feared that she would be unable to keep up with Wyatt's progress at the rate at which Wyatt was developing. "Corey, didn't I already say I am not interested in talking about my abilities? There are some things that I would still like to keep secret," Wyatt did not answer Corey reminding her not to bring it up again. To be honest, Wyatt could not teleport into his opponent's spiritual channel. He did not think that was possible. So, how was he able to detonate the SSS-rank blood explosion curse within the a.s.sa.s.sin's spiritual channel? That was because he used his abilities to mimic the instant teleportation trick of Agent Forger a.k.a the Miracle. Wyatt used his spiritual body to navigate through the spiritual plane, find the a.s.sa.s.sin's spiritual plane end of his spiritual channel in the spiritual plane, and enter his spiritual channel using his body reconstruction skill. Unlike Agent Forger whose physical body got compressed into a tumor when in the spiritual channel, Wyatt was able to use body reconstruction skills to create a mini version of his physical body within the a.s.sa.s.sin's spiritual channel. Allowing him to use his grimoire and cards within it. As such he was able to detonate the SSS-rank blood explosion curse into the a.s.sa.s.sin's spiritual channel before their divinity fought his invasion alerting the a.s.sa.s.sin of what he had done. Wyatt existed both in the physical plane and spiritual plane simultaneously like the celestials. Though he wasn't as confident as the celestials to navigate the spiritual plane, he did not have any trouble using his spiritual body similar to how Agent Forger used her 'Right Eye of the World,' to find and enter other's spiritual channels in the spiritual plane. Wyatt was hesitant about trying it out the first time until the blood rule stream showed him the ropes while helping escape the Field Marshal's mystic dimension. Now that he has used and experienced it, he was no longer afraid to use it within the limits of his capabilities. Though he was the same as a newborn celestial he did not dare to navigate too far into the spiritual plane as he was afraid he would forget his way back to the card world without a proper navigation system in place to explore the spiritual plane. Wyatt wondered if he could find an answer to that in the Inter-realm city. After all, it was a spiritual city. Even if there wasn't a navigation system to navigate the spiritual plane he could spend more time in the inter-realm city and come up with one.
