"Myriad Realms?" Susan asked in confusion. She knew that Card World was not the only realm out there thanks to dungeon reversal and demon invasion but she had no idea that there were so many realms apart from the card world with sentient beings that they were collectively called Myraid Realms. 

"Bigsis, I explained Myriad Realms to you when I told you where I am from and where I grew up. With this token, you can travel to those realms for an appropriate offering of course," Park who had awakened from her practice reminded Susan. 

"Then it must be a costly item, don't waste something important like this on me," Susan hurriedly rejected the devil merchant recommendation token understanding that it was a high-level item. 

"Why would you say that? I promised you would be my exclusive manager, you are going to need this so that we can continue to work together. Besides I want you to have it," Wyatt frowned as the Susan he knew would not say such words he guessed something was troubling her. Then wondered, 'Was she blaming herself for the Handsome Fox incident?'

"Wyatt, I appreciate your thought but this item is too good to be used by someone like me. No, listen to me, you should give it to someone more capable who can be of actual help to you," Susan's expression suddenly turned serious and she said sternly. 

"Why do you feel that you cannot be of help to me?" Wyatt could no longer ignore the obvious signs. It could not be clear that something was bothering Susan. 

"I am a late bloomer, if not for you I would not have such an incredible origin card or contract a silver grimoire at the card student realm like most geniuses. Everything I have is what you gave me, I accepted it all thinking that I could keep up with you and return it but it turns out I cannot instead I have become your baggage. If not for you helping get rid of Handsome Fox's influence I almost sold your information to him. Wyatt, you are the hope who will lead the southern region and its people to glory. If not for me you would be in Southern Palace safe and not come here risking your life. Please, I no longer want to be the one holding you back," Susan cried out, every word she said came from her heart. She yearned for Wyatt, she was fine with yearning from afar, like a mortal yearning for the stars. 

The moment Susan heard Wyatt say that he wanted her to have the token so that they could continue to work together, she confirmed his feelings for her. It was true women have an extra sense when it comes to romance. Yet even after confirming Wyatt's feelings for her Susan did not rush into his embrace and reveal her feelings for him because she understood the only reason Wyatt kept coming back to the Sky Blossom City was for her. She was the anchor grounding him when he should be shining bright in the lives of billions of people improving their lives, just as he did hers. He was the miracle the South needed, she could not be selfish. Just the thought that she was in Wyatt's heart like he was in hers was enough for her to live with. 

Wyatt carefully listened to Susan's words and was not quick to refute. Her words hurt him but the moment he heard her call him the hope of the South he knew it was not Susan who was saying these words but the media controlled by the Southern Royal family. He instantly understood that this was one of the objectives Anna's mother was trying to achieve letting the media push this narrative out into the Southern Community. He could not wait to meet with her as Collen and Field Marshal Heatsend said. He would get even with her then. 

Wyatt was not overthinking, even Demigod Norley wanted to kill Susan understanding that as long as Susan was alive Jill's relationship with Wyatt would not progress anywhere. However, he knew killing Susan was not an option because if Wyatt knew Susan's death was in any way related to Jill, forget him progressing his relationship with her, he would come for her head. Knowing this Demigod Norley backed way. 

But Anna's mother was different. She might have done a thorough background search on Susan and being the cunning snake she was she might have guessed that the best way for her to get Susan out of Wyatt's life was for Susan to willingly choose to leave Wyatt's life. Only that way would Wyatt move on without much drama. However, she underestimated Wyatt, he was not new to his enemies using media to manipulate public opinion and get their way.

Corey and Park looked at Susan in shock, nobody knew better than them how much Susan missed Wyatt when he was in the Southern Capital. Especially Corey, as someone who used everything in her books to get Susan to forget about Wyatt, she knew how much Wyatt meant to Susan. So, she could not believe that Susan would push Wyatt away. 

Under everyone's astonished eyes, Wyatt rushed in front of Susan, grabbed her by her shoulders, and locking eyes with her he confessed, "If I am the hope of the South, then you are my hope. If I lose my hope, how can I possibly be somebody's hope." 

Susan's eyes trembled when she heard Wyatt say this. 

"Do you remember the day we first met?" Wyatt asked Susan, who nodded with teary eyes, "hmm"

"You might not know this, but the day before that I had died betrayed by everyone I fought for and was reborn—" Wyatt paused then continued to say, "I mean, betrayed by society I tried to commit suicide but fortunately failed." 

Susan looked at Wyatt in shock. Wyatt continued, "After my parents died everything changed, the friends and teachers that I trusted the most treated me as a waste of space. A fraudster scammed me of all my money and thugs tried to rob me of my parent's inheritance. Every night I went to bed crying for help but no one listened. I had lost all hope in society and myself. 

In desperation, I took a drastic measure. However, when I thought I was about to die I realized I did not want to die I wanted to live. Fortunately, I did not die. Getting a second chance, I decided screw society, I will live the way I want, and I will help myself. With that thought I proceed to until I meet you. 

The old me died that day and the new me was reborn. However, it was not until I had met you that the new me matured. 

I, who had given up on society met you, a fool who let a stranger create her origin card betting her and her family's life savings. Who does that? Nobody in their right mind would trust a stranger to create their origin card and bet their family's entire savings on that. At that time, I thought you were a fool. But that fool taught me how to trust again. No, that fool taught me how to live again. It is that fool who made me the hope of the southern region. 

If that day, that fool was not present I might never have developed in the direction I am currently heading. I might have taken a completely different route. I might never have become the hope of the southern region.

The whole world thinks that I am perfect and has great expectations of me. But they don't how imperfect and incapable I am. Without my hope, I am hopeless. You should know after all you are my exclusive manager." 

"How can I know? I am a fool. Your words not mine," Susan's voice no longer held self mockery rather they were as bright as the day she decided to become Wyatt's support in the Central Academic region. 

"You two get a room," Corey commented. Her timing could not be more perfect. Susan immediately separated from Wyatt like a spooked deer. 

"Ah~" Corey screamed in pain being burned on her wrist by Park, "Way to go dumbass, you ruined their perfect moment." 

"Hey, I did not do that on purpose," Corey refuted. Listening to how much Susan meant to Wyatt, Corey was not heartless enough to oppose their union but she felt that it would be good if they had their union behind closed doors. 

Corey was moved by Wyatt's speech but not enough to see him have his way with her mother in front of her. As far as Corey was concerned Wyatt was lucky to get her approval to pursue Susan. But he better not dare to be nothing but a gentleman to her mother in front of her otherwise even at the risk of her life she will fight him.
