Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital

After employing the temporal annihilation fist consecutively on two occasions, Belphegor quickly realized that this ability might be depleting a considerable amount of sand from the lower compartment of his hourglass relic faster than he had anticipated. As a result, he firmly resolved to employ this skill only when he was confident of striking Wyatt and also to manage the sands within his relic more efficiently.𝒏𝔬𝐯𝑒𝗅𝔲𝓢𝔟.𝒞𝓞𝓂

”Erase secondary time flow,” Belphegor chanted recalling his time ability. Since for some unknown reason time rule was basically useless against Wyatt, Belphegor felt there was no point in continuing to maintain the secondary time flow or using the time rule against him for that matter. 

However, there was another significant motive behind his actions. He aimed to lure more demigods into recklessly confronting him or aiding Wyatt. This would allow him to offer them as sacrifices to the hourglass relic, thereby replenishing the sands in the lower section of the relic.

The moment Belphegor eliminated the secondary time flow, the original time flow, which happened to seem stuck, began to appear to move at a regular pace. The 250 turrets resumed their slaughter of the demon army, while the 75 demigods continued their pursuit of the five devils. Ann and Jill who were previously observing a group of unknown demigods gather around Wyatt, suddenly found that spot vacant. Further away, they witnessed a colossal devil and an immense Wyatt engaged in a standoff. Meanwhile, the unknown demigods that had gathered around Wyatt were missing, leaving Ann and Jill baffled by the altered scene. They exclaimed, ”What just happened?” 

”Holy shit, did you know Wyatt could turn into a giant?” Jill exclaimed in astonishment, watching as a towering 110-foot-tall Wyatt confronted the equally massive mohawked devil of the same height.

”He must possess a card for that ability, I suppose. His followers in Sky Blossom City can employ it too. Remember that viral video? A bunch of card apprentices from a high school gang wiped out nearly a hundred thousand members of a rival gang using a giant transformation card,” Ann responded, her gaze fixed on the towering 110-foot-tall Wyatt. Unbeknownst to her, she was just a few inches away from a calamity a minute ago, but his timely intervention saved her.

”They were Wyattʼs supporters, the post I saw didnʼt provide many details on them. Plus, I had no clue that Wyatt is leading a high school gang. Itʼs quite unbelievable – heʼs so reliable at times that you almost forget heʼs just a teenager,” Jill remarked at the risk of stating the obvious. 

”Do you believe he can defeat the devil?” Ann inquired anxiously, a sense of helplessness washing over her. She had assumed she had all bases covered when Wyatt entrusted his security detail to her, yet it appeared her preparations had been insufficient. Once again, Wyatt had to step in to ensure his own survival. Ann disliked this sensation intensely. She hated the fact that Wyatt might have risked his soul to gain his current power. 

With Anna away on her training retreat, Ann held onto the hope that she could forge a connection with Wyatt and maybe even convince him that they could date, alongside Anna, of course as she did not have a choice in this matter considering her relationship with Anna. Despite her best efforts, all her attempts in this direction faltered. Wyatt was steadfast in his refusal to entertain such thoughts, deeming them inappropriate due to his existing relationship with Anna. Though Ann commended Wyattʼs loyalty she also hated it.

Regardless of the assertions from the Heatsend family, Ann deep down knew that she wasnʼt Annaʼs twin but rather her origin card. Now she chose to embrace her unique status and leverage it to her benefit. Ann believed that as long as Wyatt pursued her, Anna would find it challenging to reject him. Armed with this knowledge, Ann simplified her initial goal from aiming to make Wyatt fall for her to help him comprehend that being in a relationship with her wouldnʼt constitute a betrayal of Anna or any wrongdoing.

Since she was intricately linked to Anna, Ann reasoned that as Annaʼs lover, Wyatt had every entitlement to utilize her as he saw fit. She held onto the belief that over time, Wyatt would gradually develop feelings for her as well.

To make that happen, Annʼs initial move involved aiding Wyatt in his endeavor to attend the early admission interview at Morningstar University and return safely. However, things took a turn for the worse, especially when the mohawk devil with time rule mastery appeared on the scene. Since that point, Ann had been striving to establish a connection with Anna, aiming to merge with her and gain the empowerment of the array formation that enveloped the Southern Region aiming to teach the mohawk devil to be humble. 

Despite her efforts, every attempt to connect with Anna proved futile. It was as though Anna existed in a separate dimension, eluding Annʼs reach. She immediately concluded that their grandaunt had sealed Anna in one of her dimensions for Annaʼs training and considering her grandauntʼs mastery over seals Ann understood she could not contact Anna regardless of the bond inseparable between them. 

”Considering heʼs managed to withstand the devilʼs mastery of time rule mastery this far, he should indeed be capable of defeating the devil as he claimed. Think about it, when has he ever made a promise he couldnʼt fulfill? We just need to trust that he hasnʼt done something reckless to attain this strength,” Jill reassured Ann, though these words also served as reassurance for herself. 

Witnessing the change in the scene that they were keenly watching, Jill and Ann immediately understood that the mohawk devil might have made use of the time rule. And seeing how Wyatt was able to face off the mohawk devil despite its time rule mastery. Jill and Ann immediately concluded Wyatt had once again made a deal with the devil like the time he defeated Agent Louis.
