“If you are expecting to show compassion you better hope I am not your opponent in the semi-final because I do not know how to show compassion.” After narrating her dark childhood Cortney made it clear she did not think anybody is worthy of her compassion.
“I hope we et in the semi-finals since the world has not shown you compassion. Not only will I show you compassion but teach you how to show others compassion.” Cortney’s orphanage story did not phase Corey instead angered her. Corey Park was sold to and raised by demons yet she turned out okay and even after spending a century in the dark realm she still managed to keep her humanity till the end. Blaming your past and the society for your present and cruelty, only cowards did that.
Seeing Corey and Cortney argue in front of I was perplexed not knowing what to do? Do I intervene or Do I pick a side and bully the other side or Just walk away? My relationship with both Corey and Cortney was not that good but enough to not ignore their existence. I looked at Ed asking him what to do, without hesitation, he stood on Corey’s side. Due to my relationship with both of them, I did not have the luxury to just walk away or to side with one of them. Leaving with the only choice is to step in and diate their differences like a good friend.
But I was not their good friend if I think carefully both of them want to kill for one or the other reason. Cortney wants to kill because she was ordered by her mother and the Circle to do so. Corey recently has exhibited unprecedented hate towards for so unknown reason. As for being an adult reincarnated into a child’s body, I find their behaviour cute. Do not get wrong, if they try to harm they have a lot of pain coming their way but spending ti with each of them and trying to understand them I have grown a fondness for them making not like the idea of either of us getting hurt or ending up dead. So I decided to do what real boys, friends with a couple of beautiful girls would do, watch how it ends. ‘Girls Fight, Let’s get it on.
Unfortunately, another annoying female voice just when I was about to get so popcorn and watch Cortney and Corey get it on. ” Father, you are going the wrong way. The dic bay is the other way, that way is the exit.” It was Beth, it seems that Jack Whiteburn and his three daughters Eliza, Amy and Beth we’re headed to the dic bay to check on Pax’s condition.
“Eliza, you are in charge now, attend the tournant in my stead. I will be heading ho early as so rats have infiltrated our house. It seems that the city has forgotten why the Whiteburn manor is referred to as the Wild, I go and remind them.” Receiving a distress call from the manor Jack headed ho leaving his eldest daughter Eliza in charge of the tournant affairs and keeping the public appearance on his behalf. Amy and Pax, we’re not the only ones that participated in the tournant under the Whiteburn family banner, there were others too and now Eliza was in charge of them. After the final duel for 1st Rank in the young heroes list other duels would be held depending upon the points to compete for the young heroes ranking.
Hearing their father Beth, Amy and Eliza’s face beca serious, it seems sobody in the city still dared to act against their family and were courageous enough to directly attack the Whiteburn manor.
“I will not disappoint you father.” Eliza respectfully took the role assigned by her father.
“And make sure no expense is spared in case Pax’s recovery requires them.” Jake’s these sentences and their order made his priority clear. For him first ca his family than children, a typical honourable family Lord.
“Yes, Father. I will make sure all the needs of the family participants and Pax are t.” The young heroes list is a big deal for the big families and clans of Sky blossom city. It was a way of showing others their clan or family’s strength and prospects. And the Whiteburn family Juniors were not doing that great this year. As even a single family mber was able to make it into the semifinals of the tournant. Being the top family of Sky blossom city their results were quite embarrassing.
“If even a single of them falls under top 25 of the Young heroes ranking this year. Send directly to the families outpost at the Katherine Field dungeon, including Pax and Amy.” As expected this year’s results displayed by his family juniors disappointed Jack, what was more disappointing is that two of his children participated and even then Whiteburn family could not make it to the top three of the young heroes list. On the other hand, even the Bright family’s spoiled Princess made it to the semifinals. In so ways, Jack was happy that he received the distress call from the manor, saving him the sha and embarrassnt of seeing the smug face of old geezer William.
“Yes, father. If even one of the family juniors falls below the top 25 rankings of the Young Heroes List, l will accompany them to train them at the Katherine Field Dungeon.” Eliza assured her father as he summoned his gold grimoire and vanished with the wind.
The Whiteburn family’s loud discussion brought an awkward pause to Corey and Cortney’s argunt. Before Jack left he shot a gaze at Cortney, the person who sent his only son to a dic. Because of Jack’s gaze, Cortney’s face paled before she snorted at Corey and left towards the VIP box area. Courtney, who is suspected of displaying Card Overlord prowess during the tournant for so reason, was frightened by a Peak Card Lord’s re gaze. As expected of the patriarch of the city’s first Frank family.
I knew having Card Lord power was not enough to challenge Jack, William or any other patriarch of the top-ranking families. If the top families hold this much power then the power of the circle rule over the city can only be imagined. The cards and ingredients these families and the circle have accumulated over the decades is not sothing I can reckon with. This is why I wanted to accumulate as many Nad Calamity daughter cores as possible before declaring war on the circle. So what if a peak Card King is backing the circle. I have a family of Card demigods backing . I am just waiting to gather enough power to uproot the circle completely as Anna and her family have made clear that they will not help or be part of my mundane revenge story.
“Wyatt, Congrats on making it to the Semifinals.” Beth congratulated shyly with red cheeks.
“Yeah, thanks.” I felt awkward as this was not the Beth I knew. The Beth I knew was rude and said the first thing that ca to her mind without caring for the other person’s feelings.
“Really Beth! Our brother is lying unconscious in the ergency dic ward and you are busy snagging a man for yourself. Have you no sha.” Amy yelled at Beth who was busy acting cute and shy in front of . Hearing Amy both Corey and Cortney’s ears twitched in interest.
“What do you an I was just congratulating him on his win.” Getting caught red-handed by her twin Beth hurriedly explained with a mortified red face. Hearing the twins’ argunt I scratched the back of my head.
“You, climb down from your cloud nine. She only wants to court you because you are a talented card creationist with good strength and an orphan with no background. Which makes you an easy to control househusband and will also help her get rid of the elders who want to marry her off for family relations. Co to think this is a very smart plan on Beth’s part.” Seeing laugh foolishly as I scratched the back of my head Amy explained the elaborate plan behind her twin’s change. Finally understanding the reason behind the weird Beth shaking my head I followed The Whiteburn siblings and Corey to the ergency dic ward to check on Pax.
