"You sure will not die?" Colleen asked Wyatt looking at the unconscious Bloodette, in her bed inside the cave, she grunted in pain as her body trembled under the constant attack of the dungeon seal. By die, she meant Bloodette's physical body being erased from the physical plane, not the actual death that mortals face.
"Yes, she will not die. The Blood Rule loves this particular avatar of it in the physical plane very much. So, it is going to be a lot of trouble to help her. All the dungeon seal can do is imprison her and erase her cultivation base forcing her to rebuild her strength from the start. Right now her realm has been reduced to the soldier realm so based on this rate in another hour or so it will be reduced to the student realm. Only then will the dungeon seal stop," Wyatt answered Colleen while he kept studying the dungeon seal. He felt pity as freeing Bloodette meant that his secret base would no longer exist and would have to store his trophies in some other vault. Where the people after Redfall and Agent Louis cannot track them.
"I see, she must be one of the originals," Colleen said listening to Wyatt say that the dungeon seal cannot kill her.
"The records in your family archive did not mention it?" Wyatt asked, busy trying to locate the weakness of the dungeon seal to release it or even modify it having decided to find a solution to set Bloodette free from her imprisonment once and for all. He believed that he had the strength to shoulder the responsibility of letting Bloodette out of the prison the predecessor of the card apprentice created.
"No, unfortunately there we could not find much on Blood Supreme. If not for Cortney summoning her to fight against you in the city tournament we wouldn't even have known that the Blood Supreme was sealed in some third-rate city down south," Colleen replied.
Having fought the Supreme Beings for a good chunk of her life nobody knew the terror of originals among the Supreme Beings. Unlike human beings, the Supreme Beings cannot reproduce but they cannot permanently die so it was kind of an even-steven situation.
A somewhat similar death to what the devils enjoyed, they cannot be killed across the Myriad realms only in the dark realm. Like, wish the supreme beings could not killed in the card world. Even if they were to be killed outside of the world a new supreme being take its palace.
Dealing with them was hectic and troublesome so the best option was to seal them. This was not the solution but having an out of sight out of mind attitude helped here.
Because of this reason, some in the research field believe that Supreme Beings, who were birthed by the rules in the World's Will's womb, were the rightful hire of this world, and card apprentices were invaders similar to the monsters invading the card world by the various dungeons summoned in it. The only difference was monsters failed to successfully rebel against the supreme beings whereas the humans were successful. Many in the research field rejected this theory as the World Will not only did not reject humans but helped humans in many different. If the supreme beings were truly the true children of this world would the mother help her children's bullies?
This debate has been going on in the research community for a millennium and it hasn't aged well seeing how the Card apprentice managed to banish Supreme being to the Way Beyond.
However, this sparked another debate that the world was so big that even the founding card demigods of the five regions could not go around it in a decade yet the fastest card demigod at present was noted to have traveled from the Northern Capital City to the Central Capital City under half a day without any space rule. This could only mean that the Five Regions were only a tiny piece curved out by the supreme beings for the card apprentice in this big world.
The other side claimed that the reason the fastest card demigod at present was noted to have traveled from the Northern Capital City to the Central Capital City in under half a day without any space rule because he did not have to pass through the territory of any strong supreme beings or SSS-rank dungeons breaks during his sprint. However, the founding card demigods of the five regions had to cross the territory of many dangerous Supreme Beings and SSS-rank dungeons, that had undergone dungeon break since nobody cleared them, as a result even a decade wasn't enough for them to go around the world.
The only reason these debates were propping up in the research communities was that the Central government, the four Royal families, and the noble families of the central capital were not willing to share the entire maps of the world with the general public and strictly regulated the entire world map among themselves. The map available to the general public only showed the Five Regions and Empire but nothing across the Way Beyond. Even the card apprentice posted there was given temporary access to the incomplete map of the edge of the Way Beyond overlapping with the outer boundary of the Five Regions.
Because of this reason except for the few powerful card apprentices who held authority in the five regions, nobody actually knew what in beyond the Way Beyond. Many believed it was filled with rare resources that one can't imagine to find in five regions but others believed it was flooded with strong monsters that broke out of the dungeons without the Card Apprentice clearing them.
Many greedy Card Apprentices have tried to explore the Way Beyond on their own at first the authorities could not be bothered to stop these greedy people from certain death but once they started to attract the fury of Supreme beings toward the guards at the Way Beyond they had little choice but to intervene making it illegal for the forces to travel across the Way Beyond without proper clearance.
