”Why is that?” Colleen asked hearing her daughter reject her idea to reinitiate the MegaMorpher project.

With Luna gone, the MegaMorpher project was put on hold indefinitely. But considering that they need MagaMorpher to explore their inheritance land, Colleen felt it would be a good idea to revive this project after all the required funds and plans were already in place with the exception that this project was no longer for the creation of Lunaʼs regiment. Allowing Colleen to achieve two goals with one kick. The goals were keeping the boy busy and getting the cards they need to venture into their inheritance land respectively.

”Mother, Luna was supposed to get the recipe for the ingredient required to create MegaMorphers card. Now with her betrayal, I donʼt think that will happen anytime soon,” Annaʼs mother explained to Colleen the real reason why they had put the MegaMorpher project on hold indefinitely.

”Why do you need the recipe to create the ingredient canʼt we just buy them?” Colleen said feeling that her daughter was making things unnecessarily complicated.

”Mother, we donʼt need that particular ingredient, we need a modified version of it. Which the boy and Luna were supposed to research together,” Annaʼs mother patiently explained to Colleen knowing her mother was more of brawns and beauty than brains.

”I see,” Colleen nodded in understanding and then she come to a sudden realization and voiced it to her daughter in anger, ”We cannot use Lunaʼs old connections to get our hands on the recipe for the ingredient required for the creation of the MegaMorpher because you guys stole the important parts of the dungeon relocation apparatus we rented from the Morningstar University. Even though you guys tried to hide your tracks by blaming it all on freedom fighters, you have dragged the name and reputation of the Southern Royal family through the mud so that in the foreseeable future people will think twice before making use deals with us.”

”...” Annaʼs mother suddenly when silent know that she was in the wrong here. Yes, after stealing important parts of the dungeon relocation apparatus she and her daughter cleaned their tracks by putting the blame on Freedom Fighters. But that did not change the fact that the Southern Royal family was responsible for the protection of the dungeon relocation apparatus. So, its theft reflected badly on the Southern Royal family, who was supposed to safeguard it.

The more Colleen thought about it the more angry she grew and she did not hesitate to articulate her anger to her daughter, ”Sister-in-law is right no amount of punishment and discipline will change the damage you and your daughter did to our family. Girl, tell me where are you, my hands suddenly feel itchy.”

”So, now Anna is not my daughter? Werenʼt you the one who paraded her around calling her the worldʼs best granddaughter when she gave you the core of the devil slayed? You take the praise and I get the blame,” Annaʼs mother snorted hearing Colleen blame her for her daughterʼs string of bad decisions.

”*Amen* whatever, forget about it,” Colleen said in embarrassment as what her daughter pointed out was not false and then tried to divert the topic to the boy saying, ”Tell me how do I keep the boy busy?”

”Did I not already point out that he likes to create origin cards?” Annaʼs mother repeated her original advice.

”Sure, but where do I find enough card apprentices in need of origin card creation that would jam-pack the boyʼs schedule for the next three months?” Colleen pointed out.

”Why donʼt you ask the card creation association to send all the clients with origin card creation cases toward the boy?” Annaʼs mother suggested.

”How dare you ask me to misuse my authority, you really havenʼt learned your lesson have you?” Colleen thundered at her daughter.

”Alright, I will think of something else,” Annaʼs mother stopped kidding around and then remembering a video that she saw recently she uttered, ”Old Lorenzo said that the boy has equipped his close confidants with some kind of giant transformation cards which can be used in fusion with Summon-type cards and Summon Possession skill cards, he even shared a video file where the four of them slaughter an entire army of 100,000 card apprentices. I think equipping our soldiers with that card would not be a bad idea.”

”Now thatʼs an idea I can get behind, and just to be on the safer side, I will fund the boy with enough resources so he can research new a replacement ingredient for the creation MegaMorpher card such that he can continue with MegaMorpher Project with agreed upon specs,” Colleen thought if she tasked the boy to achieve the impossible then he will be stuck in the confines of the royal palace indefinitely where he could grow in a safe environment like she wanted.

”Now thatʼs a great idea,” Annaʼs mother immediately agreed with Colleenʼs plan because she thought that if the boy could achieve what Colleen felt was impossible, then Colleen will not just see the raw potential of the boy but also see what he was already capable of. Pulling Colleen out of her fears and worries, so that she can put her faith in the boy so that he could take care of himself.

”I know, but enough about that, tell me how far the relocation of the silver milk powder manufacturing plant has come. And what are the losses?” Colleen inquired.

Luna was an integral part of the silver milk powder manufacturing plant, from its secret location to how it operated, she knew every detail about it. Now that she had betrayed the Southern royal family and joined Freedom Fighters, as a precaution Annaʼs mother had to relocate the entire silver milk powder manufacturing plant to a new secure location. Now that was no simple task.

”I have managed to hire trustworthy space rule users, they relocated the plant to a new secure location with ease, and no damage was incurred.”

”So, where are these so-called trustworthy space rule users of yours now?”

”Mother, donʼt ask questions that you already know answers for.”
