“Wyatt, that is a devil with a time rule mastery. Regardless of what you have planned, you can’t possibly think that you can defeat a devil. Do you have a death wish?” Ann suddenly appeared in front of Wyatt who was advancing toward the mohawk devil and tried to stop him from stupidly challenging it. She couldn’t understand where Wyatt was getting these suicidal tendencies from. If challenging a devil to a decisive deathmatch was not suicidal then what was?

The twenty-five Card demigods were still processing the Card Master’s arrogant words. They were dumbstruck not because of what Wyatt said but because he planned to do what he said, slay a devil. 

A card master dared to challenge a devil. Not just any devil but the one which all twenty-five of them together do not have the confidence to defeat. They were used to the whims of Royal children and guests they occasionally have to protect but this one tops them all. Dalton Wyatt was fucking crazy, now they all understood why the princess asked them to keep an eye on him when guarding him. 

“Ann, step aside. I know what I am doing. I want to live more than anyone else. Trust me, follow my plan and everything will be okay,” Wyatt assured Ann and walked past her. 

Ann wanted to grab him and quickly carry him to the royal palace grounds but she restricted herself from doing so and instead said, “Promise me you will be fine.”

Wyatt paused in his tracks finding Ann’s words genuine and then continued his stride after promising Ann, “Yes, I promise you.” 

For some unknown reason, Ann trusted Wyatt. Not that he could defeat the mohawk devil but that he would be fine. Then she signaled the demigods who were prepared to use force and drag Wyatt back to the royal palace grounds at her command to step back and not take action. 

Then adding to their dismay she even ordered them to follow Wyatt’s plan, “Teams 1 to 5, join the 5 groups and help them defeat the five devils and demons.”

“Your Highness, what about the mohawk devil—” the leader of team one immediately asked Ann but was interrupted midway by Ann, “Wyatt said he will take care of it. So he will take care of it. The rest of you go help others kill the remaining five devils.”

Listening to Ann’s orders the twenty-five demigods looked at her in disbelief, but they did not wait for Ann to repeat her orders and they rushed to complete the given orders. 

“You are going to let him walk to his death just like that? Do something damn woman,” Jill’s spiritual body hovered around Ann blaming her for being useless. 

“Why don’t you try stopping him then?” Ann screamed at Jill. Right now she was holding in a lot, especially the fact that she went against her mother’s orders to save Wyatt from himself by letting him fight a devil. 

To others, this might not be a big deal but to her, this one incident questioned her entire existence. After all, she was the ideal daughter. Listening to her mother and elders was her thing. Now that she had broken that, what was the purpose of her existence then?

…

Watching Wyatt walk towards the mohawk devil with his aura slowly rising limitlessly and the other 25 demigods leave his side and join the 50 demigods facing the feathered devil, human face scaled snake devil, and the other three devils all the conspirators hiding in the dark were blown out their mind. 

Some even wondered if the Southern Royal family planned to sacrifice Dalton Wyatt to the Mohawk devil in exchange for sparing the rest of them. This was especially true for the five devils who were doing their best to save their asses when faced with ten demigods each. 

These five devils were the ones that were most shocked when they noticed that twenty-five more demigods were joining the initial 50 demigods fighting a decisive battle against them. Meaning now each of them had to face 15 demigods. 

Seeing Wyatt walk toward the mohawk devil get, the five devils began to cuss the mohawk devil in their minds seeing him effortlessly get the soul he was after, while the rest of them were struggling desptrestly to save their life.

“What the fuck do you mean?” Arnas cussed at Ada, who updated her about progress so far in both the missions, after learning that Wyatt was heading towards the mohawk devil while demigods protecting him left to fight the remaining five devils. 

Ada herself was puzzled by this action of the Southern royal family, however, she did not think that the Southern royal family was sacrificing Wyatt for the rest. As alive Wyatt was worth more than 75 demigods to them. This could only mean that the Southern royal family was up to something. 

“Ada, check if Wyatt approaching the mohawk devil is the original Wyatt. After all, there is a probability that the Wyatt walking toward the Mohawk devil might be a clone or a powerful card apprentice disguised as Wyatt,” Arnas thought the Southern royal family might have used misdirection to replace the boy with one of his clones or a very powerful demigod with time rule mastery. Otherwise, what else could explain a card master approaching a devil after his soul? 

Listening to Arnas, Aba too felt that what she said was possible. Even though they sounded far-fetched they were a lot more reasonable than what it appeared, a card master sacrificing himself to the devil to protect his allies. 

“Give me a second captain,” Ada then communicated with one of her bodies inside the Southern capital through her devil skull mask and instructed it to verify Wyatt’s identity.

It did not take long for Ada’s body to complete the task assigned to it and provide Ada with the answer. Then Ada forward it to Arnas in a state of utter confusion, “Captain, it is the original Wyatt who is approaching the mohawk devil and there is no deceit to it.”
