"Fine. I will wait for Ahalya here," I compromised knowing there was nothing to gain by blowing up now. Since I could not make a grand entrance. I decided to pull off a grand exit. People knew that I had not only arrived at Morningstar University but also entered it, they wouldn’t wait to see how things develop from there. And I will give them a exit worth their waiting for.
When I said I will wait, I only plan to leave behind a clone manned by a few of my primordial spirits. This way the clone will have the strength to resist until I arrive in case of sothing unexpected. After all, Morningstar University was not to be trusted. They definitely had a final play in place seeing how Dean Faust kept insisting on waiting for Ahalya to return from the Ti Vestige. Whatever it was, I was ready to use it for my grand exit.
"Young friend, why not wait in our guesthouse? We will inform you when she is out of the ti vestige," Dean Faust proposed, seeing that I compromised and stopped demanding to et Ahalya or contact her right away. He reached for a foot now that I have given him an inch. I don’t bla him, I would have done the sa. But that didn’t an that I would just roll over to whatever he said.
I silently noted that at first he wanted to wait at the student and staff dormitory, but now he was asking to use the guesthouse. This old guy, I don’t think he would have changed his attitude towards if I hadn’t found the temporal anchor and taken it hostage. I guess regardless of one’s reputation, others don’t truly begin to respect them unless they have personally witnessed them at work.
"How about I just see if the ti vestige will return from the past to the present if I destroy the temporal anchor? You must have taken so safety precautions for such an event, right?" I threatened, not bothering to further negotiate with Dean Faust.
"Young friend, don’t misunderstand . It’s just that Ahalya and team have entered the ti vestige to test their hypothesis about the Ti Rule Dentia, it would take them weeks or months to complete their research and return. Instead of wasting your ti waiting for them. You could carry on with your work. Our guest houses are equipped with state-of-the-art card labs with all the latest machinery and array formations. If you need a bigger lab, our new research facilities happen to be only a few hundred yards from the guesthouse. It’s just that we don’t want you to delay your work over this," Dean Faust explained to with a gentle smile and a twinkling glint in his eyes. I was creeped out by it, it was like he didn’t view as a human but an object — an opportunity, to be more accurate.
The longer I stayed here, the more credible their open-minded image they advertised to the world would appear. Not to ntion, there was bound to be interactions between and their faculties and students, and if it were to lead to sothing like say collaboration or even an internship, then even better.
I see what was going on here. I wanted the world leaders and organizations to see as their equals, and now that they saw as their equal. They saw an opportunity to make a lot of money in . However, our history, my difficult attitude, and my alliances were making it difficult for them to openly suggest a collaboration. They wanted , especially the wealth I could generate. As for the VR-universe, it will always be there. They could slowly get to it once they had .
As they say love and hatred might not be permanent, but interest was. Since the new wave of developnt and change in the card world would be led by the VR-universe and , they had no choice but to put away their little thoughts and our little differences, so that they could make money with instead of watching and my allies make money.
"Dean Faust, I appreciate the offer but I am quite comfortable here on this branch," I said, as I chose the primordial clones to leave behind while I made use of my privilege with the devil rchant code to transfer rest of my soul into a pseudo-calamity core in the basent of the new Tyrant Sun Raven guild headquarters.
"Well, please do as you see fit. I will leave behind a few staff to attend to you. If you need anything at all just holler them," Dean Faust generously offered while signaling the demigod staff to leave but a half a dozen of them remained. I didn’t expect Dean Faust to leave behind six demigods to attend to , he really thought highly of . Had I not known that the ’garden of beginning,’ was always under surveillance, I would have misunderstood that they were here to monitor .
However, just as Dean Faust was about to excuse himself, the ti and space of the ’garden of beginning,’ began to vibrate violently. Sensing this, Dean Faust imdiately warned , "Young friend, you have to get out of there now... hurry, the ti vestige is returning from the past. That’s the eye of the ti tunnel, if you get caught in it, it will be too late."
Dean Faust hesitated but still chose to reveal the core secret about the ti vestige just so that their young guest would not suffer the sa tragedy their 3rd Dean Lucine had suffered. Though she managed to survive it, she was never the sa since that day forth. He didn’t want the leader of the new generation of the card apprentices to suffer such a tragic fate so young without fulfilling his duty of taking them all into the new era.
