"Nothing buttercup, I think Wyatt feels bad about being rude toward this old man and wants to apologize," Demigod Norley explained to his daughter continuing to lock eyes with Wyatt, savoring every bit of rage and hatred in them. He was the freaking founding father of the current government and this little shit here kept addressing him, old man. The first few times he could ignore it as ignorance of a child who did not know better but now the kid was being deliberate. He could not let it slide, otherwise, he would lose the respect of his future son-in-law.
Wyatt rolled his eyes listening to Demigod Norley think Jill would take a hint. However, he was not surprised to find that the Norley father and daughter were two peas in a pod.
"Wyatt, you don't have to apologize to my father. He doesn't mind, right father?" Jill had no reason to doubt her father so she did not think twice before going with his explanation. But the next second she asked her father to forgive Wyatt. Which only triggered Demigod Norley's sadistic nature further.
Ignoring the father and daughter, Wyatt moved his eyeballs to stare at little Beam who was resting on his shoulder like a rock. Using his soul pupils he was astonished to find that Demigod Norley's mastery of space rule was almost at the sage level as it ignored little Beam who was resting on him and only affected him.
For the first time, Wyatt knew the true terror of the founding fathers that erected the current government. He now understood why neither Matron nor the Supreme Leader dared to reveal their real identity and operated under pseudonyms. Their origin cards were overpowered but they could only considered clever tricks in front of this kind of power.
With these kinds of monsters ruling the current world, it was not surprising that the Supreme leader and Matron thought it was not the right time for them to surface and chose to act in the shadows. As for the emissary of light, he was the Empire's headache. Compared to their approach Wyatt's approach was way too high profiled. Hence here he was.
"..." feeling Wyatt's stare, little Beam slowly opened her eyes and then immediately closed them. Astonishing Wyatt, he did not accept Beam to be so cowardly. Or was she too lazy to fight Demigod Norley for his sake?
Little Beam was not being cowardly, she had sensed Demigod Norley use his space rule on Wyatt, but she did not act because she felt no malice in Demigod Norley's actions toward Wyatt. Knowing that Demigod Norley did not plan on killing Wyatt she did not bother to take action. Corey ordered her to protect Wyatt not babysit him. She had enough of these annoying humans. She could not wait for the day when her mommy stopped caring about these humans and only played with her.
As for why she opened her eyes and closed them right after, it was her way of telling Wyatt to handle the problem himself and not disturb her rest. She had seen Wyatt at his peak, he was not much weaker than her current strength. She did not see how it was her turn when Wyatt would not stand up for himself. However, Wyatt misunderstood little Beam and cussed aloud in his mind, 'You damned useless snake.'
"Jill, honey, don't interfere. This is between us men. A real man always acknowledges his mistake and takes responsibility for it. Your actions are only hurting Wyatt's pride. Can't see it in his eyes," Demigod Norley knew how to deal with his daughter. With just a few sentences, he tricked her.
Jill nodded listening to her dad, just as he pointed out she could see an intense determination in Wyatt's eyes and decided not to interfere.
'What the fuck is taking Field Marshal Heatsend so long? Don't tell me she suddenly turned dumb, deaf, and blind or something?' Wyatt determined never to trust the Southern royal family. These people were more unreliable than the politicians and cops back on Earth. Trapped in Demigod Norley's space rule Wyatt felt desperate, however soon he was going to learn what true desperation was.
"Boy, if want your apology to be sincere why don't you try to apologize properly by kneeling? I do not mind if you prefer groveling," Demigod Norley arrogantly demanded of Wyatt. Soon Wyatt felt the space rule immobilizing him begin to move and with it, his body moved.
Jill who wanted to tell her father that he was being excessive stopped in her tracks seeing Wyatt's knees bend. She was shocked she did not understand why the tyrant Wyatt would go this far to apologize to her father. Was this because of his pride? He was prideful but this seemed a stupid way to redeem one's pride. After all, there was no pride in groveling.
'Screw this,' Wyatt yelled in his mind knowing that if he did not do something then he would be forced to grovel in front of Demigod Norley.
Seeing that no one was coming to his rescue Wyatt immediately entered one with the world state both physically and mentally to borrow celestial force from the Card World. Unleashing the celestial force he began to counter Demigod Norley's space rule.
Sensing a strong resistance from Wyatt, Demigod Norley was surprised which only grew into disbelief learning it was the celestial force. He could not believe a card master could borrow enough celestial force from the world to resist his space rule.
Just like how the celestial bodies bend the space around them Wyatt used the celestial force to break the space rule on him. However, Demigod Norlely's mastery of space rule was too high and it would not be easy for him to break through it.
Wyatt refrained from using his celestial force because he did not want to reveal that he could generate celestial force similar to a celestial body to Demigod Norley. However, thanks to Dredre's pixie dust and his celestial force, he could now borrow more celestial force from the world compared to the time when he fought against Belphegor's Worldhog Incarnation.
