“Wait, how do you guys plan to fight against the devil’s time rule mastery? Didn’t you guys just say you had no way to counter the time rule?” Wyatt asked the leader of team one eagerly. Not that he was worried about the demigods but he was genuinely curious how the demigods planned to counter the devil’s time rule mastery.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm The leader of team one wanted to brush off Wyatt’s question but seeing the enthusiasm in his eyes he sighed and answered, “We are going to use taboo cards to share our divinity and gain power close to a transcendent. Hopefully, we can take down the devil with us.”
The divinity of a demigod was what set them apart from mortals, it was like individuality. Sharing it with others would taint their divinity with the individuality of the other person who shared.
When the divinity gets tainted the growth of the demigod gets completely halted and they cannot do anything about it unless they get rid of the thing tainting it. Which was easier said than done. This was why the demigods did not immediately think of using the taboo card of sharing one’s divinity as this move was a desperate last resort.
Listening to the demigod say that they would be using taboo cards to share their divinity and achieve the strength closer to transcendence for a limited time at a severe price Wyatt immediately lost interest in the way they planned to counter the devil and its time rule mastery.
“That won’t work, you guys are seriously underestimating the time-related relic the devil is carrying. Who knows what kind of time-related skills the relic has? If we proceed with your plan, the devil will not only massacre you guys but also destroy the timeless array formation covering the southern royal palace grounds to get to me,” Wyatt immediately voted against the plan proposed by the leader of team one.
The soul pupils were a false relic and with them, Wyatt was able to achieve so much despite being limited by his realm. However, the mohawk devil was carrying a true relic with time-related skills and it was not limited by its realm, Wyatt could not begin to imagine what the mohawk devil was capable of with the help of its true relic.
This was why he believed that the devil would not only be able to defeat the 25 demigods who are sharing their divinity to temporarily achieve greater power but also destroy the timeless array formation if needed.
“Wyatt, I do not mean to be rude but timeless array formation is invincible. Do not make light of it or us. Please, trust and retreat to the royal palace grounds,” the leader of team one said politely despite his eyes showing that he has taken offense from me repeatedly claiming they would lose and the timeless array formation would be broken by the mohawk devil.
“Ten minutes ago you would have said the same thing about the city array formation of the Southern Capital but look what happened? A corpse puppet was able to effortlessly destroy it. Do you want to put to test if you will be proven wrong again or just be smart and think of a better strategy,” Wyatt reminded the demigods about the tragedy of the city array formation and warned them not to be so confident about the timeless array formation only to be proven wrong.
“I have had it with you. You are just finding faults with our plan. If you think you are that smart then come up with a better plan. But you can’t because you do not want to return to the royal palace grounds and that is why you are putting down every plan the leader comes up with. Your Highness, please allow us to use force to help you retreat to the royal palace grounds,” one of the team members of team one snapped, he finally had enough of listening to Wyatt find faults in their plans and blatantly talk down to them.
Seeing the team atmosphere then tense while the enemy approached, Jill felt like biting her nails but she couldn’t as she was in her spiritual body. So she hurriedly spoke her mind, “Guys, whatever you decide, decide past the mohawk devil is getting closer. You know despite his slow stride he is fast.”
“Wyatt, they are right. Unless you have a better plan we can only retreat to the royal palace grounds and hope the reinforcement arrives before an irreversible loss occurs.”
“Good, I do have a plan. I will handle the devil while the rest of you go take care of the 5 devils and their demon armies,” Wyatt answered with a deep voice so Ann and the rest would take his plan seriously knowing that what he was saying may sound absurd and far-fetched to their ears.
“Enough Wyatt, it’s no time horse around. I did not want to resort to this but you forced me—” Before Ann could finish giving her orders to the demigods Wyatt interrupted her saying, “Who said I was joking? You guys handle the other devils and demons, leave this one to me.”
“Don’t tell me you plan to borrow the strength of the devil once again?” Ann said immediately feeling that Wyatt was being serious then she added, “Wyatt last time you were lucky enough to trick the devil. Please don’t push luck and tempt your fate. This time around you might not be so lucky. So, why don’t you just cooperate with our plan.”
“Who said anything about borrowing the power of the devil? Remember how I said I will show the world not to underestimate Dalton Wyatt? This is how,” Wyatt declared and then he began to walk toward the mohawk devil, with every step Wyatt took his body size kept growing and his soul energy signature grew stronger and fiercer.
“By slaying a devil.”
