After confirming that there was no trickery attached to or with the Plague egg, Wyatt prepared to swallow it. But as he brought disgusting warm pulsating atball near his mouth a shout interrupted him—
"STOP!" Soon one sickly female figure and one old yet bulky male figure appeared a few feet away from Wyatt, Colleen, and the Devil.
"What now? Who the fuck are you guys? What do you want? Don't tell you guys also want to sacrifice yourself in his place, " Belphegor asked the newcors, losing his patience. Just when he thought his task here was done and he could peacefully die, these people stopped Wyatt from swallowing the plague egg. So he yelled, "Let make it clear if the plague egg is touched by anyone but Wyatt it will imdiately detonate."
"You said you would detonate it but now you say it will imdiately detonate itself, well, which is it?" The sickly woman so suddenly appeared fearlessly asked the devil. From the aura her body was releasing, she was definitely a demigod, and not just any regular demigod but a scary one.
"Both scenarios are possible, you crazy woman are you trying to mock ?" Belphegor cussed at the sickly woman.
Ignoring him the sickly female demigod said, "It ans I can only examine the plague without touching it. Now that's going to be hard." Then looking at Wyatt, who was holding the plague egg, she asked, "Young man, does your skin feel a cold sensation even if the fluids from the flesh of the egg are trying to burn your skin? Is holding it like holding a water balloon?"
"Yes and yes," Wyatt replied to the sickly female demigod in shock. He was amazed by the fact that she could tell about the plague egg just by looking at it from afar. It seems her knowledge of the plague was profound. Did the leader of the Freedom Fright bring her knowing the battle would co to such a conclusion?
Yes, one of the two figures who suddenly appeared belonged to the leader of the Freedom Fighter, Henricks. It could only an that the sickly woman was also a mber of the Freedom Fighters. This surprised Wyatt cause until now Wyatt was under the impression that Freedom Fighters were a bunch of rag-tag card apprentices coming together with one purpose, he did not expect to find experts among them.
"How dare you show yourself here?" Colleen yelled at Henrick from within the frozen part of the secondary ti flow. And then imdiately added, "It seems the rumors are true you have indeed emptied the treasury of the central governnt before becoming a traitor."
Colleen said so because she thought the only reason Henricks could move around free with his colleague in the Devil's secondary ti flow was because of the ti skill cards he stole from the central governnt's treasury.
Collen was kind of jealous since, because of the Southern royal family's continued strained relationship with Morningstar University, especially this year with Luna turning out to be a traitor and Anna stealing the key components of the dungeon relocation apparatus, the royal family did not receive any ti skill cards from the university even if they were will to pay twice the regular market price or thrice the price of what other royal family were paying.
When asked why the university made up a random excuse that they did not create enough ti skill cards to spare the Southern royal family a few. When asked to repair their old ti skill cards with the ti rule power the University gave them an appointnt date ten years from now. Hence, they were sitting ducks against the opponents that used ti-rule-based attacks.
Colleen was pissed at Morningstar University's blatant provocation and wanted to personally give them a stern lesson however her daughter asked her to be patient until Wyatt recreated the Silver milk gate dungeon. Then it would not be too late for them to teach those who looked down on them when they were at their weakest.
"Sorry, I was late because I had to go get Madam Joy to examine the plague," Henricks did not bother to argue with Colleen and instead explained to Wyatt why he was late to his rescue, unlike Colleen who showed up imdiately.
Turns out once Belphegor started brewing the plague in his body Henricks unlike Colleen, who warned Wyatt about the plague while she lied in wait for Henricks to redeem herself, left the southern capital using his origin card and fetched Plague Doctor Joy so that she could examine the plague Belphegor was creating and put an end to it before it spreads.
Hearing him Colleen imdiately shut the hell up, as for Wyatt he just nodded at Henricks feeling relieved over the fact that Henricks did not have the foreknowledge of their battle to bring a Plague expert with him instead he was a responsible card apprentice with a great origin card.
Belphegor dumbfoundedly looked at Wyatt who calmly discussed the plague egg with the sickly demigod and Colleen who argued with the old demigod. Then suddenly scread yelling, "Do you bastards think this is a Joke? Believe it or not, I will hatch the plague right away."
Hearing the Devil's threat Wyatt, Henricks, and Colleen turned to look at Madam Joy to confirm that he could indeed do what he claid. To their disappointnt, Joy nodded saying, "The plague egg was born from his life force so he has a lot of control over it. If he wants to he can hatch it any ti."
Listening to Joy's analysis Belphegor nodded his head smugly but hearing what Wyatt had to say his face paled, "Does that an he can hatch the plague even after I swallow it and incubate it in ?"
"Yes," Joy nodded. With her response, Wyatt imdiately turned his sharp gaze at Belphegor, and glaring at him he said, "I knew it, you would never give such generous options."
