Wyatt had very little knowledge of the rule source, he didn't actively seek information about it knowing that he lacked both the strength and means to locate the rule source and enter it. After learning about rule slaves, Wyatt understood some things one cannot overreach for or it might cost one everything.

Such was the case of the rule slaves. These people overestimated themselves, they either lacked rule affinity to understand the mysteries of the rule source or lacked the strength to fight the rule slaves guarding the source. There was a lesson to learn in all of the rules.

"Didn't I tell you, I have been to the Blood Rule Source before?" Bloodette responded, it appeared that was all the explanation she was planning to give on that matter.

"You encountered blood rule slaves during your visit and the Blood Rule Stream informed you about them," Wyatt guessed, to which Bloodette nodded in agreement and added, "I had no idea that trying to comprehend blood rule at source would spell such a disaster. Fortunately, the Blood Rule Stream acted and masked my breath with its in time otherwise, I would have joined the ranks of Blood Rule Slaves."

"I see," Wyatt gazed at Bloodette with complicated eyes as she narrated her adventures at the Blood Rule Source. Many lost their lives trying to locate and enter Blood Rule Source but Bloodette talked about it as if it were her neighborhood park. He would have envied her had he not seen her at her worst.

"So, you stay behind. I will go get Cortney from the rule source," Bloodette still believed Wyatt did not have enough affinity to soak in the unbound mysteries of the Blood Rule Source.

"Don't worry about me, I have a very high synchronous rate almost nearing that of a newborn celestial," Wyatt rejected Bloodette's concerns. Thanks to the Dredre's pixie dust his synchronous rate has grown to the point where he could simultaneously exist on both planes, physical and spiritual. Similar to a celestial body.

"What?" Bloodette did not understand a single word Wyatt just spoke. Seeing her like this, Wyatt finally saw the Bloodette her remembers, listening to her go on about rule source and rule slaves Wyatt had begun to doubt if Bloodette was secretly a genius.

"Nothing, I am tagging along," Wyatt simplified and assured Bloodette, "Don't worry if I feel like I can't handle it I will return."

"That is if you get a chance to, whatever I will render you unconscious if you start acting out," Bloodette felt Wyatt's stubbornness to enter the Blood Rule Source even after knowing the potential risk was stupid.

"..." Wyatt wanted to remind Bloodette that she was no longer a Card Overlord but did not, remembering that she was blood rule itself, he thought she might indeed be stronger in the Blood Rule Source.

"Alright, have it your way. In a minute Blood Rule Stream will borrow my body to open the gate to the Blood Rule Source. So do not freak out seeing me act strange," Seeing Wyatt not showing any signs of changing his mind Bloodette gave up persuading Wyatt, and closing the dungeon seal shut she began to prepare herself to let the Blood Rule Stream possess her.

Wyatt nodded and then activated his soul pupils and other senses to monitor Bloodette in both planes as the Blood Rule Stream possessed her.

Soon the blood rocks in the cave began to glow rhythmically as Bloodette's sanguine eyes glowed with a deep red hue. Wyatt could feel a pressure he was very familiar with emitting from Bloodette, he felt the same pressure as he traveled the two blood rule meanings that he comprehended to completion.

With his soul pupils, Wyatt learned that Blood Rule Stream had not descended in Bloodette's body but merely used it as a key to open the gate to the Blood Rule Source. Before proceeding to open the gate, the Blood Rule Stream glanced at Wyatt with Bloodette's sanguine eyes before resuming its purpose.

Soon the blood rock cave began to drip liquid blood rule which gathered at Bloodette's foot, forming a puddle of liquid blood rule. The puddle was 6ft in diameter and a few inches deep. Soon the puddle froze reflecting the reflections of Bloodette and Wyatt. Then suddenly the reflection on the frozen puddle morphed to reveal a scarlet world. Ignoring the background, Wyatt focused on the sleeping figure in the front, it was Cortney. Expect for her deep sleep she appeared to be fine.

"Cortney," Bloodette's sudden shout awakened Wyatt from his contemplation.

"Last chance, Wyatt, you can still choose to stay back," Bloodette reminded Wyatt glancing at peacefully asleep Cortney.

"It doesn't appear that intimidating," Wyatt said looking into the gate.

"Not intimidating, huh? The gate is not open yet, there is a thin barrier stopping the mysteries of the blood source leaking into the dungeon seal," Bloodette rolled her eyes listening to Wyatt underestimate the Blood Rule Source.

"Ah, I see, the barrier is for my protection," Wyatt scratched the back of his head not knowing how else he could assure Bloodette that she did not have to worry about him losing himself to the mysteries of the Blood Rule Source.

"Yes, it is," Bloodette's worries were not unfounded because she knew the limits of a mortal. If not for worrying about Wyatt she would have rushed to Cortney's side.

"Aren't you sweet but let us not keep Cortney waiting," Wyatt looked at Bloodette with warm eyes, feeling his efforts to help her were not a waste. Then with a subtle smile, he declared, " Let us go bring Cortney home."

"Yes, let us bring Cortney back," Bloodette too declared and finally removed the thin barrier between them and the Blood Rule Source. As soon as the barrier vanished both Bloodette and Wyatt instead of entering the gate fell on the floor of the Blood Rock cave.
