Just when Corey managed to make peace with why the Field Marshal had decided to take her as her disciple she had new concerns as the Field Marshal gained access to the dark knowledge through Wyatt. Now, Corey wondered if the Field Marshal even needed her. She felt that now that the Field Marshal had access to dark arts she could not find her unique situation of using title demon core as a card apprentice as interesting as before. Hence, she even believed that the Field Marshal’s pervious offer to her was off the table. Therefore, she was mooping quietly trying not to be of bother to others. “Are you stupid?” Wyatt asked aloud, as Corey’s concerns were of no merit. The Field Marshal’s interest in Corey would not dampen just because she gained access to the unadulterated dark arts instead it would increase the Field Marshal’s interest in Corey by several folds. After all, the more the Field Marshal gain insight into the dark arts the more she would understand just how vastly the power systems of the card apprentices and the dark races were. As result the Field Marshal’s interest in Corey’s uniqueness would intensify be several folds. As someone who has dabbled in both the power system, Wyatt could vouch for this. “Wyatt, do you have to keep picking a fight with me? I am too depressed to even argue with you right now,” Corey decided to ignore Wyatt and continue to moop in silence without being a bother for others as before. “Since I can’t watch your sorry ass for another second, I will keep it striaght. Nothing has changed, if any thing the Field Marshal wants to make you her disciple now more than ever. Besides, even without your unique condition, the Field Marshal will be lucky to have a disciple such as yourself,” Wyatt assured Corey that she had nothing to worry about.

The reason Wyatt was so soft and good to Corey was because he finally understood why her mind was so messed up after each baptism of her origin card, when her origin card made sure to not effect or harm her psyche in anyway while feeding her the memories of her past life. It was because Corey cared, she cared too much. So much that it was starting to prove unhealthy and concerning for her mental well being. Yes, it was because Corey cared, that was why she faced a identity crisis and her mind was messed up after everytime she saw the memories of her past lives even though her origin card made sure that the memories it showed to Corey would not harm her mind. Turns out she was more caring and thoughtful than she let others know. So, seeing the tragic lives of her past selfs, she could not help but try to overcorrect the mistakes of her past selves by getting mentally over involved.

When Wyatt understood this, he could not help but see the shadow of the brave little girl that came to him saying she wanted to change in the current Corey. After watching a great movie some people immedtiatly forget it and get busy with their lives. But some people don’t, they get so connected to the movies and its characters that start playing the movie over and over again in their heads while taking a shower, a dump, breakfast, work, lunch, etc. These latter group of people loved movies enough to take them as seriously as real life. The same was the case with Corey. She cared so much about her past self and their lives that she ended up creating a problem where their isn’t one. Understanding, this Wyatt truly felt the Field Marshal might be lucky to have a disciple like Corey. With the proper guidance and support, Corey might grow up to make everyone proud. “Do you really think so?” Corey was taken aback to hear compliments from Wyatt. For a change she did not make it difficult for Wyatt and accepted his compliments while conforming if the Field Marshal would want to accept her as her disciple more than ever despite her being introduce to the devil merchant code and Infinity Library.

“I believe so. Now, go and make sure your teacher doesn’t miss out on the once in a life time opportunity because her pride would not allow her to associate with demons and devils,” Wyatt nodded at Corey with a gentle smile and then he urged her to go to the Field Marshal’s side and help the later overcome her pride and chose whats best for her. “Okay, I will trust you this once,” saying that, Corey hurried to the Field Marshal and Dredre’s side who were having a heated discussion about the myriad realms, dark realm, devil merchant code, and devil merchants.

Dredre was having a tough time explaining every little thing to the Field Marshal who was clueless and ignorant to anything and everything outside of the Card world. Fortunately for the Field Marshal the Pixies were known for their patience, if it was anyone else they would have given up on trying to explain every little and tiny detail to her. This was why Wyatt assigned his task to Dredre instead of taking it on himself. “Times up, have you guys decided on which ingredient you want to trade first?” Having sent Corey away, Wyatt turned to Susan and Park who were still debating on which incgrediant to trade first. “Yes!” the girls said in unison. Then, Park informed, “We had decided to export the specter grass blades to the inter-realm network. The specter grass blade is abundantly available in the outskirts of the way beyond. Soldiers treat it like pest. They cost nothing in card world but in the dark realm they are worth a fortune.” “Good choice. Now, tell me how do you plan to procure these specter grass blades in bulk?”
