"I low dare you ask that? I would never-No! I did not betray you, the Field Marshal said, hurt that her young liege would doubt her loyalty to him. Yes, she hard him and her grandniece, but she was only following orders and believed it was for the best of the Southern region.
"Don't you dare lie to , Field Marshal. Do you want to believe Anna was able to forge her divinity and break through to the demigod realm within the two days after I last saw her in your mystic dinsion? Anna is a talented card apprentice but not talented enough to pull sothing like that off," Wyatt in his anger did not hesitate to call the Field Marshal a traitor but also a liar. Based on the information he had that was what he could conclude.
The Field Marshal looked at her young liege with a mix of disappointnt and guilt before proceeding to defend her loyalty to him, "Yes, you are right, Anna is not talented enough to forge her divinity and break through to the card demigod realm in two days but there are other ways that would help her achieve that. Like practicing the Extre Path.
Anna is a practitioner of the Extre Path. It is her life's mantra, you should know what I am talking about. After all, you enjoyed the extre asures she went for your attention and love. Anyway, I used her obsession with you and my mystic dinsion's effects to help her achieve the impossible." "You expect to believe that," Wyatt scoffed believing the Field Marshal was spinning a web of lies to save her skin. Then, he went on to untangle her web of lies explaining, 'Extre Path is for the Manics and Psychos, if one isn't, choosing that path will turn them into one. Other than that there is no way for a sane person to achieve success in that path. There is no way that the Southern Royal family would be irresponsible enough to choose a partitioner of the extre path as the next heir to the Southern Throne!"
"Genius aren't you forgetting sothing important? Anna's origin card. With every baptism, it helps her to rid the side effects of the extre path. This ti it happened to be her love and obsession for you," the Field Marshal reminded Wyatt of what he had failed to take into consideration. Wyatt's current state of mind could be sumd up with one sentence, 'When it cos to their loved ones even the steady hands of the surgeon starts to tremble.
"Then why did you not imdiately report to about what was going on after you swore your loyalty to ?" Wyatt asked what took the Field Marshal so long to inform him what was happening without his knowledge.
"Because it was already done and there was nothing I or you could have done to fix it. Also, I did not know how to tell you, until I had no choice but to tell you. Soon Anna will stablizes her realm in the card demigod realm and will be out of the mystic dinsion any day now," the Field Marshal revealed why she chose to tell Wyatt everything now of all tis.
"I see. I owe you an apology. I was mistaken, you are not a traitor or a liar. Your loyalty is golden but. it doesn't change the fact that you hurt and Anna," learning the Field Marshal had not betrayed him or was lying to cover her ass Wyatt apologized to the Field Marshal, though not in words the feeling was conveyed.
Listening to Wyatt's words, the Field Marshal was taken aback she did not expect him to react so calmly and even apologize. She did not understand why the hysteric and agitated Wyatt was
suddenly calm all of the sudden. In a mont of astonishnt and confusion, she was rendered speechless, unable to respond in ti. After all, she had witnessed him totally lose it when he learned what she had done to Anna and that it was irreversible. She could not understand how soone could recover from sothing like that so quickly.
Yet, she swiftly organized her thoughts and replied, "I can never forget or forgive myself for what. I did to Anna and you. Neither should you. However, if you want out of your sight and not have to do anything with I can understand!
"No need, you were just following orders. Holding you solely responsible for what happened will be like holding the cards responsible for the cris and murders around the world. You were just a tool in soone else's plan. The one I am truly angry at is the one who ordered you to do such a thing to her daughter!
Focusing his anger on the true culprit behind this incident, Wyatt was able to find a tiny bit of generosity in his heart to forgive the Field Marshal for the part she played in the incident. Not to ntion, she was his tool now. Throwing the strongest tool in his arsenal away in a fit of rage would not be logical. That would be him letting his emotions get the better of him. Besides it would render all the trouble he went to steal this tool a waste.
"Wyatt-" seeing her young liege arrive at the worst possible conclusion the Field Marshal was trying to avoid she began to panic and wanted to persuade him otherwise. She would rather prefer him being mad her than being mad at her niece the shadow ruler of the Southern region. As being at odds with her niece was the sa as being at odds with the Southern region. However, realizing that defending her liege's enemy to her liege would go against her sworn oath to him, she decided to stay quiet and follow her young liege's arrangent.
"Here I'm celebrating that I took her knight but she had already taken my queen without realizing! Wyatt muttered to himself under his breath in rage just imagining how the Southern Princess managed to take his queen from him without even him realizing or her having to show up. This alone was enough evidence for Wyatt to understand that he had seriously underestimated her.
