*GULP*
Van finally steeled his resolve and swallowed the small round pebble. He tried to isolate the pebble from his body system by covering it with soul energy but the pebble easily broke free of his restraint and vanished in the membrane of his food pipe (oesophagus). Knowing this Van felt a chill in his heart and he roared, “You! What did you feed me? Is it poison?”
“I fed you nothing, you swallowed it out of your own will. And it is not a poison, it is the calamity daughter core. Cheer up, it is good for you now you can heal your amputated hand and get rid of the cursed fire. Don’t you feel the power and changes in your physique? Check your grimoire, I have bestowed you with false immortality.” I slowly cleared Van’s misunderstanding and explained to him the opportunity that I had bestowed upon him.
Van felt the changes in his power and physique as I described so he hurriedly summoned his grimoire to check for the reason behind changes, only to find his second origin card slot occupied by an origin card ‘Calamity Daughter Core’. Reading the description of the card Van understood what a miraculous abomination it was but for some reason, he felt no resentment or anger towards the man who bestowed such misery upon him instead he had a blind faith towards the man and wanted to devote his to him. He finally understood the meaning of the phrase ‘everything happens for a good reason’. He felt as if every moment of his life, good or bad, was meant for this moment.
I had set Van’s Hive AI freedom level to subordinate level because I did not trust him enough yet for him to have the freedom level of left/right arm similar to Chris, Amand and Maya. He still had a will but his only desire and lust are me and my approval. Unlike the Kane trio who had their priorities and desires but they were not as important as me and my well being.
“Lord, forgive me for I have sinned.” Wonders of Hive AI brainwashing, wait me having to interrogate him Van confused feeling guilty.
“Tell me how you have sinned?” Hearing me Van narrated how he planned to put me under an SSS-rank love charm by having me the fated person tricked into willingly kissing Sarah the host of the ‘Fated Encounter’.
‘I called it’, I thought, then looked intently at Van who was kneeling in front of me begging for the punishment to atone for his sins. I did not know whether to be happy for getting a golden grade Card Lord subordinate or… but I decided to not think too much into it and justify my ways saying he tried to enslave me first.
“Get up, I will forgive you this time. Stop calling me lord instead continue calling me Master Wyatt. I don’t want people knowing about our relationship and guessing my origin card ability. That will be disastrous for me.” I did not prefer to be called Master Wyatt either but this was how people here called a prestigious card creationist, since the life/deathmatch of Pax I have gained some reputation. And also if asked Van to just call me by my name he will think I am punishing him or forcing him to commit more sin. Since I have already decided to use calamity daughter core a proper hierarchy system has to be set to not cause complications in the future.
“Yes, Master Wyatt and thank you for forgiving this lowly one.” Said Van gratefully.
“Could you stop with the formal speech?” I finally saw the difference in the Hive AI freedom level. The Kane trio though they worshipped me they had enough will to act normally in the presence of the outside company. But Van’s will was too devoted and he felt guilty just to address me informally.
“Forgive my ignorance, Master Wyatt.” Hearing Van, I sighed it seemed as convenient as Hive AI was, it still had its complications and shortcomings which I will have to explore thoroughly before deploying it in public.
“Tell me about Sarah and her involvement.” I had to take care of Sarah as I couldn’t just have an unconscious girl lying in the bedroom I had Susan build for me.
“Sarah in a way is my niece and great grand aunt.” Hearing Van, a nuclear bomb explosion took place in my mind. It seems Demigod Redfall a bisexual whore like to indulge in occasional incest. And Sarah is the product of his hedonist taboo pleasure conquest.
Irene George the 6th never mated with her spouse instead she had children with her lover Demigod Redfall outside of her marital bed but being bastards her children could not claim Redfall name. Making Van George and his sibling’s indirect descendants of Demigod Redfall. And Sarah was the child of Van’s sister born to Demigod Redfall. But Sarah was able to take the name Redfall because she showed the highest blood purity among all of the Demigod Redfall’s descendants to date.
“Enough about the whoring demigod and his taboo tales. Tell me whether Sarah knew about the fated kiss as she used the bestowal ‘Fated Encounter’ and make it short.” If the demigod Redfall was still alive I would not dare partake in name-calling the demigod because their extraordinary senses catch on if any lower realm creatures call their name knowingly. But demigod Redfall had fallen, who cares.
“No, Sarah did not know. If not for her rather special situation I would not have introduced her to the bestowal ‘Fated Encounter’.”
Afraid of Sarah’s identity being leaked Van homeschooled Sarah since her childhood when Sarah was in her pre-teen year’s seeing her lack of awareness Van introduced her to his friends the guild leaders of Sun boar and Raven guild. When Sarah became a teenager the trio thought it would be better for Sarah to have friends of her age seeing how she turned into a full-on tomboy under their influence.
After that Sarah’s life tragedy started as unlike her girlfriends her teenage crush was not a boy or a man but her best girlfriend. This was not evident to her in the protective shell of Van and his fellow guild leader buddies but out here she knew she was different she was more of a boy than a girl rather a boy trapped in a girls body. Fighting her demons Sarah finally gathered enough courage and at a special moment kissed her crush from there everything went downhill. Being young and ignorant Sarah’s best friend did not understand Sarah’s feelings instead she felt violated and broke her friendship with Sarah socially labelling her a deviant.
Afterwards, when Van and his buddies knew this they tried to console Sarah and tell her that there was nothing wrong with her instead the society and its teachings were wrong. But that was not enough to console Sarah’s young broken heart which thought she was destined to be alone. That is when Van Introduced bestowal ‘Fated Encounter’ to Sarah and his buddies, saying that everyone has a fated person and one has to be patient enough. Also, she should not give up trying otherwise how will she find her fated person.
Knowing Sarah was equipped with the bestowal ‘Fated Encounter’ the guild leaders of Sun boar guild and Raven guild were finally able to calm down enough to fight the clown mask.
“Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” Were the words that came to my mind hearing Sarah’s life ventures. Now this made it harder for me to decide whether to use calamity daughter core on Sarah or not.
