Chapter 342: Secondary Mission

Date- 27 Mar 2321

Time- 17:12

Location- Sky Blossom City, Card Stadium, Arena

“Dalton Wyatt Vs Cortney Ress”

I walked to the big arena in the center of the card stadium as the anchor announced the tournament finals between me and Cortney. Right now my thoughts were not about the upcoming match but in the VIP box no.1 with the Clown Mask and Anna.

Because of the presence of Anna, I did not get the chance to seed the Calamity Daughter Gem in Clown Mask. And I am worried that I will not be able to do so in the future. Anyone can see the potential in Clown Mask’s memories. I am afraid Anna will shelter Clown Mask like how she asked me to spare Cortney for the information provided by Clown Mask. She did say she owes me one.

I wasn’t planning on killing Cortney anyway and it’s good to have a powerful and influential Card emperor such as Anna owe me one, maybe I can use that to my advantage. For that, I will have to finish my duel with Cortney as fast as possible and get back to VIP box no1. Before the Heatsend royal family vanishes Clown Mask from the face of this world.

I do not see a reason why Anna would not do such a thing. Though the future that clown mask saw is altering at a fast pace and is only good for another 6 months or less, it was still something that doesn’t come with a price tag. I do not care what the Heatsend Royal family does but I want all the information that Clown Mask has. It will be beneficial for me when I plan to kill the founder of the Circle.

That guy is someone who would have enslaved the entire humanity of this world if not for the intervention of Clown Mask. Even though he has lost his opportunity I believe the founder of the Circle is still a capable man because just having power is not enough for one person to enslave entire humankind. Otherwise, the current world’s strongest Demigod or Royal Family or Hidden Family or Sects, etc would have already achieved that. Therefore I believe this guy is someone capable of great things and I should be cautious and well prepared if I plan on killing him to avenge Wyatt’s family.

Clown Mask with her relationship with the circle I bet she would know many secrets about the Circle, the Circle’s Sky blossom City branch leader, and the people that I have to watch out for if I plan on taking on the Circle. Clown Mask’s memories are a treasure trove to a person who knows how to use them. I want to be that person and build my reputation before I make more powerful enemies. I had Anna and her family’s protection but they were a third party they would only protect me until my existence and friendship benefit them, the moment it stops being so it’s Wham! Bam! Thank You Ma’am.

“Hi Cortney” I greeted Cortney who climbed the arena after me.

“Hi, Wyatt.” Cortney politely greeted me back and her face seemed to be haggard, unlike her usual self who would not hesitate to speak her mind. To be expected of someone who has no choice but to walk towards their demise.

“What did you think of my Nanomorpher hoverbike? Did you like them?” Cortney was totally out of it, it seems she has still not made up her mind to kill me but her Tao Tongue doesn’t give her a choice. Even if she is having second thoughts she has no choice but to participate in the duel against me. For some reason I felt like cheering her up… and Impulsively acted upon it by trying to make use of her love for hoverbikes and similar machinery.

“It was awesome, I did not know hoverbikes could get cooler. Is it the same hoverbike you drove to the school? Did you name it Nanomorpher because it transforms into a golem? What is the strength of the floating golem? Can its strength be increased? The floater system and Soul reactor powering the hoverbike seem to be the latest version of C-rank. But the golem displayed a higher level of strength, did you add any custom changes to it?” As if a switch is turned on, being asked about Nanamorpher Cortney’s face instantly grew brighter enough to not be considered tired and haggard. She enthusiastically started to barrage me with questions.

” Hey, are you just going to ask all the questions here or buy one and see for yourself.” Seeing Cortney cheer up my mood also brightened.

“What kind of salesman are you? You want me to buy your Nanomorpher without checking the specs. I know we are friends but when it comes to hoverbikes I cannot make any compromise.” Cortney lectured with a serious face.

“Final Round, Dalton Wyatt Vs Cortney Ress”

“3.. 2.. 1, Start!” The referee did not care for our talk, he began the duel at sharp 17:15.

“Did you guys take care of those ants already? I know sending 5 Card Emperors to kill a group of ants is overkill but this is more unbelievable as you guys just left.” Grey Fur exclaimed seeing the team that went to take care of the secret organization known as ‘The Circle’ return so soon.

“I thought you said the cities array was down? I clearly felt the array scan us as we went in search of those ants. And also their hideout is empty and we found a hidden teleportation array. After interrogating a mortal we found that the target had already fled the city using the teleportation array.” The leader of the 5 men team that went hunting the Circle gave the mission report narrating the reason they returned so early was that the target was missing.

“If the city arrays are up then it means that the Southern emperor is not planning on giving up easily. That’s not a problem since we already know this wasn’t going to be easy.

The only problem now is which one of you guys is going to explain to Madam web about the failure of the secondary mission.”
