Realizing that the origin of the darkness in Corey's title demon core was the demonic pearl bomb used in its creation, Wyatt discovered that she might not need to rely on him to acquire a mental-type physique, trait, or card to help her embrace the darkness of her title demon core. The Dark Races had already researched, discovered, and created exactly what she needed to solve her dilemma.
Wyatt wasn't sure if the Dark Races were aware they had developed a solution for the darkness side effect of the artificial demon cores, but they had indeed done so. What's more, it was publicly available in both the Dark Realm market and the inter-realm market, even accessible to slaves. However, it was advertised as a medicine designed to enhance the intelligence of demonic pets or mounts. The various pills the Dark Races had developed to tame demonic beasts and boost their intelligence were precisely what slaves like Park, who used artificial demon cores, needed to overcome the darkness plaguing them.
Even more surprising, slaves with low-tier demon cores only needed the lowest-tier demonic pills to help them. These pills were not only cheap and affordable but also abundantly available. Interestingly, the Dark Races used these pills to domesticate the demon clam, Clampedo.
Demonic beasts were known for being aggressive, wild, and lacking intelligence due to the overwhelming darkness in their demon cores. To calm them, make them submissive, and enhance their intelligence, the Dark Races had long since developed demonic pills that helped these beasts adapt to their demonic core's darkness. This made them less aggressive and develop higher intelligence allowing them to perfectly serve their duties as demonic pets and mounts.
Slaves who used artificial demon cores faced the same problem as these demonic beasts, and the demonic pills created to tame these demonic beasts into demonic pet or mount were more than sufficient to help these slaves manage the side effects of their artificial demon cores once and for all.
The solution to the artificial demon core's side effects had always been there, but no one had connected the dots for some reason. Wyatt wasn't arrogant enough to believe he was the first to make this discovery. He was certain that the demon researchers who uncovered the true origin of the darkness in artificial demon cores must have figured it out too.
Over the course of millennia, someone must have stumbled upon this by accident or coincidence. Yet, since this information wasn't widespread in the Dark Realm, it was clear that any rumors had been suppressed before they could spread. As for who was responsible and why they would do such a thing-there were countless possible reasons, and any number of individuals or factions could be behind it.
Wyatt couldn't help but imagine the shock on Park and Corey's faces when he revealed his discovery to them. Thinking of that, he glanced at his thousands of primordial spirits, all tirelessly working to learn various languages in order to decipher the original texts on methods to acquire mental-type physiques and traits. Considering he had found a simpler and permanent solution for Corey's problem all their effort felt pointless.
However, Wyatt didn't stop them. He reasoned that this knowledge might still prove useful, especially in mental-type skill card creation-particularly for origin cards. Since he was already there and his primordial spirit were immersed in the process, Wyatt didn't want to miss the chance to gather such valuable information. Even if it wasn't immediately useful, it could come in handy in the future.
With this, Wyatt's primary goal for coming here was accomplished. Yet, he didn't feel ready to return to the Seed World and report to Corey and Park. Corey was expecting him to help her acquire a physique or trait to not only help her manage the darkness of her title demon core but also enhance her overall strength. Imagining the devastated look on Corey's face when he delivered her the bad news alongside the good made Wyatt feel an unexpected pang of guilt as he knew how much Corey was looking forward to increasing her strength even if it was just by a little bit.
'It seems I really do think of little hell raiser as a friend, Wyatt sighed, coming to this realization. He couldn't understand how or when he had started seeing her that way, especially considering she had been nothing but a pain. She had openly opposed his relationship with Susan and even badmouthed him to Susan in his presence. Remembering that, the small bit of guilt he felt quickly dissipated. Yet, he thought carefully and decided, 'I should find her a mental-type physique or trait that will help her manage her origin card's ability, so she doesn't become a completely different person every time she goes through baptism!
Wyatt, who had originally come here to find a solution for the darkness in Corey's title demon core, now decided to seek a fix for Corey's origin card as well-an origin card that made her a tragic reincarnator. He concluded that a physique or trait to help her manage her memories would be the best solution.
He summoned the list of books on acquirable mental-type physiques and traits that Maymay had brought him and began reviewing them. To his surprise, there were a ton of options that met his requirements. Wyatt highlighted those selections and instructed his Hive Mind to prioritize them over the others.
After assigning tasks to his primordial spirits, Wyatt didn't relax. Instead, he decided
to emulate the combat training memories of the biblical trio in a first-person perspective, aiming to grasp and replicate the progress they had made. He planned to continue this until his primordial spirits finished compiling information on the prioritized acquirable mental-type physiques and traits. Only then would he deliver the good news to Corey.
Wyatt was eager to help Corey because she needed to grow stronger if she were to become a key figure in his efforts to expand and develop in the Dark Realm. Knowing how cruel and competitive the Dark Realm market was, Wyatt understood that, among his people, only Park had the skills necessary to help him succeed there-and Park's strength depended on Corey's strength. Therefore, by helping Corey, Wyatt was ultimately helping Park, and in turn, helping himself.
