"Don't worry boss, I can handle these fleas," Jaya uttered as her eyes glanced over the crowd and finally landed on Gloria. As the scarlet butterfly monster landed on Jaya's shoulder she felt an unknown power influence her blood and she saw vivid images of Wyatt asking her if she was alright on her own or needed his help. Knowing that Wyatt could morph his appearance to his will, Jaya immediately deduced that the butterfly was none other than her dear boss. So she assured him that she got it covered. Letting Jaya know she wasn't alone, Wyatt left her side and hovered over to his ex-bodyguard's side. The kids in the crowd who tried to kill the scarlet butterfly monster momentarily had hallucinations and before they knew it the butterfly monster had moved from Jaya's shoulder to Aria's shoulder. This caused many to become suspicious of the butterfly monster but seeing Aria arguing with the butterfly they felt it was her pet or summons and chose to ignore it as long as she did not plan to use it to disrupt the girl fight.

Seeing the butterfly monster head her way Aria wanted to squat it away, but soon she saw vivid images of Wyatt in her mind saying, 'It's me. Just pretend as if I am your summons.'

"Get off me, I do not want to be part of your schemes," Aria immediately rejected Wyatt in a hushed voice. Having served as Wyatt's bodyguard Aria was painfully aware of how deep his schemes ran and she did not want to be part of them. The only reason Aria rushed over here was to try and stop the turmoil that would follow when all of the kids present were brutally massacred by Wyatt. 'You have no choice in this matter Captain Aria,' Wyatt imposed on Aria using the hallucination ability of the Scarlett butterfly monster to communicate with her. "No—" Aria was about to argue and shove Wyatt off her shoulder but after receiving a mental order from Field Marshal, 'Captain Aria, Assist Dalton Wyatt.' She became docile resolving to her fate, "Fine." JJ frowned looking at the scarlet butterfly monster on his cousin's shoulder he knew Aria had no such pet or summons so he did not misunderstand like the rest of the crowd. Earlier just when he showed intent to kill it his body froze as his mind experienced hallucinations. It seemed to have a passive ability to put anyone with ill intent toward it under hallucinations. JJ found this monster's ability fascinating especially considering that the passive ability was strong enough to put him under hallucinations. He had not read or heard of such a butterfly monster with such ability. This caused him to grow curious about it. As a card creationist hailed as a genius, JJ was aware of all the monsters in the card world and this butterfly monster wasn't among them. He felt it was not from the card world or belonged to a new dungeon that had yet to be listed. Lost in curiosity about the butterfly monster itself, he forgot the important question if the butterfly monster did not belong to his cousin then whom did it belong to? Sitting on Aria's shoulder, Wyatt glanced over the crowd, his Hive AI and Super Brain card worked in sync to scan and identify each individual in the crowd. Among the crowd, Wyatt did not find anyone to be implanted with hypnotic suggestion which was both a sign of relief and foreboding for Wyatt. He could not help but worry about what Handsome Fox was planning. Though Wyatt did not find any hypnotized puppets of Handsome Fox in the crowd he found other variables such as people affiliated to Circle and Yin-yang harmony sect. The two guys leading the people from the Circle and Yin-yang harmony sect were both incarnations of the Supreme leader. Wyatt had thought that his small ploy using the array master Ji Feng from the Yin-yang harmony sect to sow discord among the Circle and Yin-yang harmony sect would stop the unification of the Yin-yang harmony sect into the Circle but it hastened the process. From the look of things, when things did not go according to his plan the Supreme leader had resorted to extreme means so that his Incarnation could take over the Yin-yang harmony sect. Finding the Supreme Leader's cronies in the crowd wasn't surprising to Wyatt. He even believed that these people might be the ones who instigated the crowd to make this display. Wyatt felt that Matron's brainwashed and blackmailed slaves also helped them in this matter. However, it was not as easy to spot Matron's paw clan in the crowd as it was to find the Supreme Leader's incarnations and the Circle. After the incident in the Southern Capital, both the Matron and Supreme leader must be clear about Wyatt's strength. Yet, why would they resort to instigating these kids what would they stand to gain from this? Their plan could not be more obvious and simpler, it was to get Wyatt to kill these kids just like how his subordinates massacred all the gangs that threatened to invade the Sky Blossom City and slaughter the Bright Lion gang. All the kids present here came from rich and prestigious families. Their parents, grandparents, or relatives were somebody with power or someone with authority in the Southern Region. Just imagine all of these powerful people turning against Wyatt because he killed their kids. Even Anna's mother would have a hard time quelling the anger, rage, and sadness. They all would not hesitate to start a mutiny just to get revenge on Wyatt. Regardless of whether they succeed or not the entire Southern Region will be left in shambles in the aftermath of this incident. No matter how it ended, the real winners here would be the Matron and Supreme Leader. This was why they did not hesitate to sacrifice a few of their pawns by sending them to the field to ensure that this incident ended with Wyatt killing everyone.
