Location- Sky Blossom City, TSR guild

"How many recruits do you want this time boss?" Van asked as he took the storage card I handed to him.

"There are about 3 dozen gems in the storage card, use them all if you can. If you can't then save them and use them to replace the dead ones" The mission to rescue Ronnie was a good example of how handly the members of the sinner squad were. I would have suffered a huge loss if Butcher Bob's Card Overlords had captured Van or old Ben.

There is a lot of difference between Van, old Ben, and the calamity daughter gems in the sinner squad. Van and old Ben are the public faces of my various ventures, if they are dead or caught doing something shady it will be a lot of trouble for me. As for the faceless calamity daughter gems in the sinner squad, their only significance is to get the job done or die trying. That's why I decided to revive the sinner squad and if required maybe add new teams to it.

"Okay Boss, I will do what I can. But the vagabond card apprentices with high realm are very rare and dangerous. So, I think using all the gems right away is not possible but I will keep an eye out for recruits." Van agreed to my arrangement and made plans accordingly.

"Here, old Ben. Deliver this card to Rami Kaga and ask him to make preparation to visit the sun blossom city with me. While you are there show off your platinum grimoire. I want Rami to understand that it is in his best interest to cooperate with me." I handed old Ben a Slime Fairy infinity harem version card, though it that too many defects that Diana, Cindy, and Jaya pointed out, it didn't matter as this was a freebie so Rami better be satisfied with this or he could sit on it.

I wanted to give Rami a personal visit but brainstorming about the pleasure card project with three from the Fine Gold, I skipped it and decided to have one of my calamity daughter gems deliver the card and message to Rami, I had better things to do. The reason I was planning to visit the Sun blossom city was to do something about the space isolation barrier covering the Sun blossom city. As for the desolate punisher array I had Roy taking care of it. Apparently, the disciple from the Yin-Yang harmony sect has holed himself up in his room cutting himself off from the rest of the world, making it impossible for Roy to feed him the calamity daughter gem. So I could afford to delay taking care of the space isolation barrier covering the sun blossom city for now.

"Yes, boss." old Ben took the card and nodded in agreement. Having assigned Van and old Ben their respective work I rode my hoverbike to the southern watch's temporary base.

Location- Sky Blossom City, Southern Watch's temporary military base.

I rode into the base without any delay at the gate and headed towards where Cortney was being held. But I had to stop seeing Anna descend from the sky with a stout figure, due to the bundles of fat covering its body it was hard for me to tell whether the stout figure was a male or female.

"Wyatt, why are you here?" Anna asked after landing and for some reason, the stout figure next to her gazed at me with greed in its eyes, sending shivers in my spine. No matter what gender this abomination belonged to I did not want to be near it.

"To meet Cortney." The main reason for my arrival at the southern watch's base was to find Anna and ask her why she wasn't answering my question. Yet I lied deciding to be subtle about it.

"Oh, is that it?" Anna said in disappointment knowing that her crush wasn't here to find her but another girl. If she hadn't known that Cortney and her crush were strictly friends, Cortney's life in the southern watch base would be uncertain.

"Yes. you seem busy, so I won't disturb you any longer." I said glancing at the stout figure next to Anna.

"Master Wyatt, you can have your girl back my work here is done." As soon as the young card creationist finished speaking Cole Wilson felt a strong killing intent descend on him and knew that his cousin wouldn't hesitate to kill him if he were to continue to hinder her any longer, especially now that her young lover seemed to be visiting another girl. So Cole used his slick tongue to calm her anger by addressing her as the girl of the young card apprentice. As expected his trick worked, the killing intent covering him suddenly vanished.

"Forgive my rudeness but you must be…" I didn't know the stout figure but it seemed to know a lot about me. Especially about Anna's relationship with me. Despite its appearance, it seemed capable.

"He is a nobody… ignore him. Didn't you as ask whether the authorities are using sex workers as informants earlier, come let's discuss it in detail. There are many things I have to tell you before I get to it." Anna spoke, finally giving me the clarity that the fat thing in front of me was he. Anna made it sound as if the authorities using sex workers as informants had a big history to it but I had a feeling that she spoke so mysteriously because she wanted me to spend time with her instead of Cortney.

"..." Cole who was being treated as a nobody by his cousin could only shake his head in dismay and despite the repercussions that could follow he introduced himself, "Master Wyatt, my name is Cole Wilson"

"..." With Cole's interruption, Anna glared at him but before she could act I added, "Nice meeting you Mr. Wilson."

"Please, call me Cole, Mr. Wilson is my grandfather."
