Before rushing to verify his speculation about the criteria for his primordial bloodline to chose a
daughter gem as its inheritor on Redfall's soul, Wyatt inquired of Lois, "How close are you to establishing your divinity?"
"With the daughter gem's abilities it should take me a moment to reforge all the runes I dismantled and recover to my peak strength. Then, I should be able to establish my divinity soon using the new abilities," Lois replied truthfully. The various abilities and strengths she gained as Wyatt's daughter gem were proving invaluable in her recovery and in establishing her divinity.
"Do you need any help with your full recovery or in establishing your divinity?" Wyatt asked, planning to support Lois to the fullest now that she was his bloodkin daughter gem.
"No, but I think if I conduct more research on my new abilities and their compatibility with my old powers, I could establish a divinity even stronger than the one I originally planned; Lois replied, her ambition clear. "But it will require extensive time and a wealth of information that only the organization can provide in the entire five regions-maybe Morningstar university could too," She trusted Wyatt completely. Deeming him as her universe, she felt no need to be cautious around him. As his bloodkin, she would sacrifice anything for him, even her life, if it were to satisfy him. The organization she spoke of was none other than the one run by her previous masters, the founding figures who secretly controlled the current central government. Given that this organization dated back to before the founding of the five regions, its wealth of knowledge- especially about the power system of the Card Apprentices-was beyond compare. However, Wyatt knew of a far better place to help Lois gain the knowledge she sought to establish her divinity. "Hmm," Wyatt mused before handing Lois one of the Devil Merchant recommendation tokens. "Use this and become a demon merchant. It will help you with your needs. Hive Spirit will guide you through the details and help you join the EGG Guild. Aim to become a devil merchant as soon as possible. Understood?"
"Yes, Master. Thank you,' Lois nodded in agreement, reaching for the token and gratefully bowing to Wyatt for his generosity.
"Continue your training here, and keep a periodic watch over the dragon. Let me know if there is even the slightest development on that end. With your celestial vision, you should be able to handle it, Wyatt instructed Lois, wanting her to stay hidden in the Seed World and work toward breaking through to the Card Demigod realm as soon as possible.
He didn't want her to emerge into the regular world yet. If she left the dungeon seal, the organization would detect her presence and send their top hunters to retrieve her from wherever the Southern Royal family was supposedly holding her. Lois's former masters believed that the Southern Royal family was keeping her captive and were feigning ignorance when asked. They never suspected that it was Wyatt who had imprisoned their precious agent.
"Yes, Master. It shouldn't be long before I ascend to the Demigod realm, Lois assured him, confident that her ascension was within reach. She only needed to optimize her divinity in line with her new abilities and status. With that she will be able to grow stronger and could be of more help to her master.
"And one more thing" Wyatt suddenly added, recalling an important matter. "When you were in the organization, did you ever encounter a Card Apprentice named Karl? He's involved in the Undead Card Apprentice project.'
"Yes, Master, I did," Lois replied. "Though he didn't seem remarkable, and he isn't particularly renowned within the organization, the Masters seem to trust him greatly. In fact, he's the head of the Undead Card Apprentice project!
Wyatt understood that Karl had managed to deceive the entire organization about his nefarious abilities and intentions, also somehow managed to earn enough trust from the Masters to lead the top-secret undead project. No wonder the Masters never foresaw his treachery in the Clown Mask's future vision.
"Share all the information you have on the Masters and the organization with me through the Hive Spirit. Start with Karl and the Undead Card Apprentice project, Wyatt ordered, finally having a reliable source to help him learn about the organization controlling the central government and its leaders.
The Clown Mask's future vision had been helpful, but most of it pertained to the Supreme Leader, the Circle, the other two Mischiefs, and their forces; there was very little about the organization and its Masters. Thanks to Lois, Wyatt could now finally lift the veil of mystery surrounding the
organization and its Masters and prepare accordingly.
Until now, Wyatt had planned to let the Supreme Leader and the Mischiefs handle the Masters, planning to eliminate whichever side prevailed among them to rid the Card World of both evils. However, now that Lois could help him fill in his knowledge gaps, he planned to use the Tao Eyes to track Karl and end his treacherous reign as soon as possible, ridding the five regions of his wicked incarnations and the undead army that preyed on countless innocent souls periodically to maintain its strength.
After all, sustaining an undead Card Apprentice army wasn't without its costs. The stronger the undead, the more energy they required to be maintained; otherwise, they would turn on their master in their hunger. Because of such heinous crimes, the five regions had united and backed Ada Windsor against the three Mischiefs.
The addition of Lois as his daughter gem and bloodkin was an unexpected gain for Wyatt. He planned to make full use of the information she possessed about the organization and its Masters. As someone who held the special title of 'Daughter of the Masters' within the organization, Lois could provide Wyatt with the best insight into the organization and the Masters-second only to the Masters themselves. This knowledge would be invaluable in aiding Wyatt's ambitions for the Card World.
