[Worldʼs best dad calling…]

Jill was standing by the glass wall separating her from the Southern Capitalʼs skyline but she was too preoccupied with her thoughts to joy the serene skyline under the starry night sky. If not for the call notification it would have been long before she would have awoken from her thoughts. 

”Hello, Dad,” Jill immediately answered her dadʼs call hoping to distract her mind from thoughts troubling her by finding peace in conversation with Dad.

”Honey, how are you doing?” Jillʼs father immediately noticed Jillʼs mental state was not right just from how she answered his call and the tone she used to answer his call. 

”I am fine,” Jill lied 

”Okay,” Jillʼs father chose not to call his daughter out for lying to him and instead asked, ”Where are you right now?” 

Honestly, Jillʼs father knew exactly where and what his daughter was doing but for the sake of giving her the sense of freedom and independence she craved he chose to act accordingly, a father who believed in his daughterʼs personal space and life.

”Southern Capital, Prestige Four Seasons,” Jill answered without giving it much thought. 

”Pack your bags and leave the Southern capital immediately,” Jillʼs father ordered Jill to leave the Southern Capital immediately. 

”Why?” Jill asked her father, sensing that he did not call her just to have a casual father-and-daughter talk. 

”Jill, donʼt ask questions. Just leave the Southern Capital and go somewhere else. Better yet just leave the Southern region and return home. Itʼs been a while since you visited me,” Jillʼs father knew better than to say Jill to not ask questions but like all fathers, he did it anyway going against his better judgment. 

Jillʼs father never hid things from his daughter but because of her recent sexual awakening, his daughter had taken a fancy to a boy. And like all fathers, he did some personal investigation and found things he did not like. Forgetting the fact that the boy belonged to the Royal faction, the boy had other girls in his life while he shamelessly made demands of her. 

Adding to all that, the boy turned out to be a priority target of the Central government for the discovery of silver milk, the invention of silver milk powder, and sealing Agent Lois Forger A.K.A ʼThe Miracleʼ in an unknown location. 

The cherry on top was that the only reason the boy was able to seal Agent Lois was because of the demonic card Jill gave him and Jill had that demonic card because he had given it to her for her protection. 

The reason Jill gave the boy the demonic card was that he asked her to leave the vicinity of Sky Blossom City since they will be targeting the city for the boy and the only known source of silver milk.

Besides all that, the central government could not prosecute the boy for using a demonic card because the card belonged to him. Yes, the irony was not lost on Jillʼs father.

To avoid such a debacle again, Jillʼs father decided to keep the work separate from his daughter but that was proving to be hard since she was going out of her way to involve herself in his work for the boy, time and again. 

Even with the VR-Cocoon and VR-Slime cards, he did not want to use his daughter as the mediator between them and the boy but she jumped to the gun saying it was good money, nonetheless, he knew she was finding a reason to get in touch with the boy. 

”But I still have to get the VR-Slime cards from Wyatt,” Jill argued. 

”Forget about those VR-Slime cards, return home right away,” Jillʼs father tried his best to get Jill out of the southern capital without revealing information but he only came off as a strict and unreasonable parent and he wasnʼt liking it one bit. 

”Dad, tell me what is going on? What has gotten you so riled up so much,” like her father who knew her best Jill knew her father best. Hearing him be demanding and unreasonable she realized he was hiding something from her. 

”...” being caught by his daughter Jillʼs father was without words however he immediately said, ”The central government has heard a chatter that a bunch of demon worshipper remnants is planning to target the new Dual gate dungeon found near the Southern capital tomorrow morning. So it is not safe for you to stay there, leave the city immediately.” 

Jillʼs father did not lie to his daughter but didnʼt tell the full truth either. 

”I see,” Jill said, understanding that the central government planned to destroy the new dual gate dungeon found next to Southern Capital under the disguise of a demon worshipper terrorist attack. 

Knowing the way the central government operated Jill was not surprised by this. What surprised her was why was her dad hesitating to tell her this. He has spoken to her about more confidential and secret stuff yet he was reluctant to share something like this, this puzzles Jill. 

Finding her fatherʼs actions suspicious Jill said, ”Dad, the dual gate dungeon is on the outskirts of the city so I will be fine. So I think it will be fine if I return after I get the VR-Slime card from Wyatt.” 

”No, you have to leave immediately because the demon worshipers plan to attack the city and the dual gate dungeon simultaneously to split the forces of the Southern Royal family and increase their chances of destroying the dual gate dungeon. The city will not be a safe place to be, so hurry and leave the city tonight,” Jillʼs father hurriedly explained to his daughter. 

Jill knew her dad well enough to deduce from his half-truth that the central government wasnʼt just planning to destroy the dungeon but also harm the creator of cards with the ʼSoul Energy Digestionʼ effect.
