The reason Wyatt went so far as to call Colleen and her husband names in the text message he sent to her was to use them as a catalyst to stir the dormant emotions of Colleen about her sense of duty and help her see the righteous path again. There was no doubt that Colleen was a good queen, otherwise, she would not be so loved by citizens of the southern regions when other royal families and central regions were using any means possible to decrease the popularity of their rival leaders.
But everyone has their dark times and weakest moments. It was funny how the righteous do not allow or use one good deed they did to define them but let one bad deed they regret doubt their entire life. Or it might be just Wyatt's trying to justify his past by sympathizing with what Colleen was going through and forgiving her for her selfish actions. Either way here the line between good and bad had been erased long ago. To borrow the words of a wise soul, 'There is no such thing as little wrong or very wrong, wrong is wrong.'
Being ignored by Wyatt, Belphegor lunched at him with resentment. He was here, sacrificing one of his most important incarnations, yet Wyatt did not spare him a glace, He demanded, "You mortal bastard, I will not be treated like this, I demand respect."
Wyatt dodged Belphegor's attack without even looking using his celestial senses, which were nothing but his normal senses that were enhanced by his spiritual and physical connection to the world. The connection to the world was able to give a greater boost to his sense than his strength was because of the soul energy manipulation.
At the demigod level, soul energy was no longer paramount but divine energy was. Therefore there was a limit to the strength one could gain using Soul energy at this level.
However, there were other features of the soul energy that Wyatt could exploit using his soul energy manipulation skill. One of which was to use manipulation skill to use the surrounding soul pathways and their soul energy as the extensions of his senses especially his soul pupils and soul ears, which with his mastery over the skill then extended to his sense of touch.
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Basically turning his surroundings into one big extension of his skin. So even without the divine senses of the demigods he was able to track the fast moments of the devil in seconds and use the celestial repulsive force to react faster than the attack itself.
Despite lacking the proper divinity, he made use of his soul energy manipulation skill, Curses incarnations, mutated soul, and dungeon calamity seed's protective cover to display the powers that once only belonged to demigods and devils.
"Pathetic," Wyatt uttered loudly, causing Belphegor to freeze in amidst his attack. The word had no special power attached to it but managed to hurt Belphegor's soul. It lacerated a deep cut on it. It will heal but will leave behind a huge scar. Even if he were to kill Wyatt today, this scar will keep reminding him of the day he was reduced to such a pathetic state by a mortal.
After the initial shock, Belphegor regained his calm, and locking his eyes with Wyatt he used his left hand to pierce his stomach and dug out a weird-looking flesh egg that was beating in rhythm like a heart and said, "Yes, I am pathetic and I blame you for reducing me to this state. However, let's see if you are any different than me."
"In my hand, I am holding the unborn plague. Look how it is eagerly trying to break out of its flesh shell. Once it breaks out I draw my last breath and with me countless innocent lives of this world, and soon the world itself will draw its last breath.
What if I said, by implanting this plague egg inside your body and freezing it, you will not only be able to save the world, and the countless innocent lives in it but also kill this incarnation of mine in the process, would you do it? But know this the plague egg will slowly continue to feed on your life energy and grow strong until it kills you and breaks out into the world. You can also choose to leave this world and release it somewhere else.
Wyatt tell me, will you sacrifice yourself for your world?"
So basically Belphegor had taken the whole world as a hostage with the help of the plague egg in his hands. However, he was willing to spare the whole world if Wyatt were to sacrifice himself. That was the summary of it, but the conditions he mentioned had a lot of wiggle room for Wyatt to try and change the result since Wyatt would not die instantly but gradually over time experiencing constant pain and torture.
"Fuck off, you damned coward, glacier fist," Colleen suddenly appeared next to Belphegor and used her glacier fist at him from point-blank range, planning to freeze Belphegor and his plague egg in her glacier where she could constantly drain energy from the beings trapped in it using Cyrosynthesis. So the plan was she would suck the devil and its plague egg dry. However, before her fist could release its power, the world suddenly came to a halt. Colleen and her punch seemed to be stuck.
"Secondary time flow"
Wyatt stared at Belphegor wondering how he was able to use time rule without adjusting his time rule mastery to the card world's time. Only to see Belphegor suddenly start coughing blood vigorously. Wiping the blood off his mouth, he looked at Wyatt in amazement and sighed, "You're indeed immune to the time rule."
As he spoke, the sound of the space and time cracking could be heard. When he and Wyatt turned to find the source they saw something that shocked the two of them.
