"Okay, I will keep that in mind," I knew the consequence of faking my death, it was the necessary evil of my last resort. It was better than me being dead for real.

"That is it? I tell you a beautiful woman was crying to sleep the whole time you were faking your death, and that is all you got to say for yourself? Are you dense or just heartless?" Aba looked at me in disbelief upon hearing my reply.

"Hey, shorty, who gave you the right to play cupid in my big sis's life," Corey, who was standing next to me was not liking what she heard especially that part where Aba was trying to ship the boy and her mother.

"You, psycho, I am big sis Susan's friend I have every right to meddle in her life," It took a lot of self-control on Aba's part not to punch Corey when she called her shorty. The only reason Aba was holding back was out of Susan.

"You two duke your differences outside. You guys better not scare my clients," pushing aside both Corey and Ada I walked toward the visitors from the Sun Blossom city.

Seeing me arrive Agatha walked toward me and said, "I can't believe my eyes, how did you do it? I picked up your grimoire, which dropped after the assassins killed the slime your clones asked me to protect."

"It was just a trick to get the assassins off my back. Sorry, I could not tell you that I was faking my death because you were part of the plan. If there is any way I can make up for the trouble I put you through just say it," I apologized to Agatha for all the distress and trouble I caused her.

Was I being too polite to Agatha? No, she was my friend and she was responsible for my life yet I kept her in the dark and made use of her and her grief to achieve my agenda. A friend does not do that so I was only apologizing where it was due.

"Hey, you are alive, that is all that matters," Agatha said with a bright smile and added, "It's ok, you did what you had to do, I understand. But I did suffer a lot of emotional damage because of you. So I will take up your offer and reach out to you when I think of something. You better not back out when the time comes."

"As long as it doesn't harm my interest, I will not back out of my promise," I assured Agatha.

"Good," Agatha nodded, and looking at bickering Aba and Corey she said, "I better go before they let their fist speak for themselves."

Agatha headed to put off the fire between Aba and Corey while I walked to the couch and seated next to Susan, who introduced me and the client, "Wyatt, this is Ms. Laura Hill and Mr. Joe Hill. They say that you won Ms. Hill's Fated Ingredient in an open auction in the sun blossom city and they have come to see if you will sell them the Fated Ingredient."

"It's you guys, I remember you now. I am prepared to sell the card to you since it is your fated ingredient but there is something you need to know about the card. The card you knew as the Energy Saber card is no more, I used it to create the Eight Handle Energy Saber Card. See if it is still your fated ingredient," I explained as I summoned my grimoire and took out the card to check if Ms. Laura Hill could still feel it as her fated ingredient.

"Yes, that's it," As I took out the card Laura Hill excitedly reached her right hand out to take a look at the card but I did not hand it to her instead placed it back in my grimoire. As I could not risk Laura equipping the card as her origin card under the guise of taking a look. If the card was just an ingredient card I would not mind letting her check it out but it was a card, a good one at that. Unless Laura wasn't a fool she would know that with this card she would not have to hire a card creationist to create a unique origin card out of her fated ingredient and could just directly equip it.

Understanding her actions were rude Laura immediately apologized, "I am sorry, please excuse my rudeness."

"No harm, no foul. I will share the card's info so that we can discuss the cost of the card," I said accepting Laura's apology as I shared the card's info with Susan who then shared it with Laura. With Susan's experience in card sales, she should help me convey the sky-high price I was going to quote for the card to the buyers.

Laura went through the card info having shared a copy of it with Joe, as he was the one who would be paying for her fated ingredient. After going through the card info Joe Hill asked in disbelief, "Are these the real effects of the card?"

Listening to Joe Hill's question I frowned but before I could say something, Susan spoke, "Mr. Joe Hill, what are you implying?"

"Manager Susan, please don't take offense but Master Wyatt himself agreed that he created this card. How do you expect me to believe that they are the effects of a card created by someone so young," Joe spoke his concern.

"Mr. Joe, whether you believe it or not the card info shared with Ms. Laura is accurate, If you want I can give it in writing and sign it," Susan vouched for the card info she shared with Laura.

"It's okay manager Susan, I trust you. After all, no one would dare to cheat the Hill family," Joe Hill chose to believe the card info was real while throwing around his family name as a warning.

"Wooo, Hill family, I am so scared. Listen here you son of a mother, if you dare to speak rudely or threaten big sis Susan, believe it or not, I will turn your Hill family into the monster feed?" Corey came to Susan's rescue listening to Joe Hill use his family name to warn Susan.

"And who might you be?" Joe asked Corey as she was the only person who was yet to introduce herself.

"Your worst nightmare, Corey Bright," Corey introduced herself as her eyes shone with a fiery red light.

"Bright family? I have not heard of such a family in the central capital?" Joe said after going through his memories to see if there was a Bright family in the central capital.

"Of course, you won't have heard of a Bright family in the central capital as it is here in the sky-blossom city," Corey spoke clarifying Joe's confusion.

"Hahaha, hahaha, …" Joe burst out in manic laughter listening to Corey and then he abruptly stopped his laughter adding, "An unknown family from a third-rate city dares to say that it will turn my Hill family into a monster feed?"

"Dude, when did my family say that?," Corey said in confusion then taking a step forward glaring into Joe's eyes she thundered, "I did!"

Being stared down by the menacing fire dance in Corey's eyes Joe felt as if he was being stared at by a sinister being. But as a child of a big family from the Central Capital, Joe was not going to be outdone by a country bumpkin. He stood up and glared right back into Corey's eyes staring down at the sinister fire that danced in her eyes he said, "I don't know if you got guts or if you're just a fool but since you dare to challenge my family publicly you will have to bare its consequence. So, I challenge you to a life-and-death duel. If you don't agree I will have no choice but to turn your family into a monster feed for the honor of my family."

"A life and death battle? Good, I agree," Corey agreed to Joe's proposal for a life-and-death battle immediately without hesitation not because he would target her family if she did not agree but instead because she really wanted to punch his face into his skull and see if he could still maintain his smug smile which he had while he threatened her mother.

"Corey, are you out of your mind," Susan yelled listening to Corey agree to the life-and-death battle proposed by Joe not because she was worried about Corey instead she was worried for Joe and Bright Family.

If Corey were to kill Joe in the life-and-death battle, then the Hill family from the central capital would not keep quiet and definitely retaliate to avenge their fallen family member. And the first to feel their wrath would of course be the Bright family then Corey. Considering that they would want Corey to suffer before they killed her.

"Don't worry big sis, my Windsor family will stand witness to this life and death battle. No matter who loses their family will not blame the winner," It was Aba who came to Corey's support and then she added, "Hey, psycho, you better not lose."

"..." Joe was surprised to see Aba Windsor stand up for this country bumpkin but this was within his calculation. Besides the more Aba Windsor was close to these country bumpkins the better for his plan. As for his life-and-death battle with the country bumpkin, he was not worried at all, he was confident in his expensive card set.
