Time passed, and Wyatt spent a year and a half in sector WS9909 searching for the ideal physique or trait to compensate for the shortcomings of Corey's origin card. His efforts were not in vain, as he finally discovered a perfect trait that, when developed properly, would not only address those shortcomings but also enhance her origin card's potential.
Beyond that, the past year and a half proved incredibly rewarding, especially in terms of combat training. The biblical trio of his primordial spirits not only completed the rigorous combat regimen designed by the Field Marshal to prepare Wyatt for intensive martial arts training within six months, but they also repeated the training three more times over the next four months. In the final eight months, they took on the role of instructors for the other primordial spirits-Michael and Gabriel led the training, while Lucifer assisted the Field Marshal's intent.
Over the past eighteen months, Lucy struggled to reassure Wyatt that he would not experiment on the other primordial spirits, especially those still in the early stages of developing individuality. Therefore, Wyatt allowed Lucifer to participate as long as he served as an assistant to the combat training card's intent.
It took ten months for the thousand primordial spirits and the hive spirit to complete their reading marathon before they joined the biblical trio in combat training. Had Wyatt not insisted on studying all the methods and techniques in their original language-ensuring they absorbed the creators' intended wisdom-it would have taken far less time.
In the remaining eight months, Wyatt meticulously reviewed the compiled data on acquirable mental-type physiques and traits to find the perfect trait to strengthen Corey's origin card. However, he did not spend all eight months on this task alone. He took significant breaks to repeatedly emulate the combat training memories of his thousand plus primordial spirits from a first-person perspective. This allowed him not only to absorb their understanding of the martial path but also to ensure the biblical trio were fulfilling their roles effectively.
The trio excelled, stimulating the individuality development of all the primordial spirits and accelerating their progress. Thanks to his unique advantage, even though Wyatt did not complete the combat training himself, he ultimately benefited the most. He offered the biblical trio the opportunity to use his cheat to further consolidate their understanding, but they declined. They preferred to remain true to the martial
path until they felt they could no longer advance without it. Wyatt felt both proud and ashamed faced with their unwavering conviction and diligence on the martial path.
By the end of the intense year-and-a-half of isolation training, Wyatt's knowledge of mental-type physiques, traits, and how to acquire them, along with his combat training and progress on the martial path, surpassed not only his expectations but also those of Martial Demigod Lorn's Intent. Wyatt realized that he should engage in more of this kind of isolation training.
Why not? It had been an incredibly productive use of his time. Though he spent a year and a half in the study room, only a little over eighteen hours had passed in his native time zone. In less than a day, he had achieved what would have taken over a millennium of study and training (1,024 primordial spirits x 1.5 years). Wyatt couldn't have been more satisfied.
As he prepared to leave, Wyatt decided it was time to bring closure to his friendship with Maymay and mark the beginning of a new relationship. Throughout the past year and a half, he often felt a gaze on him. Thanks to his skill, 'If You See Me, I See You,' he immediately knew it was Maymay. Over time, her gaze softened from stern to curious, letting him know that his tactic of making her wait had worked perfectly.
"Maymay!"
"Maymay!"
"Maymay!"
Wyatt called out her name three times, summoning the elder pixie. True to her word, she appeared before him in less than a second. She looked exactly as she had the last time he saw her-a plump figure dressed in violet-but something had changed. She no longer seemed desperate to prove her friendship or earn his trust.
It seems she had time to think things over. That was the side effect of the "making her wait" trick, and Wyatt had already come to terms with it. As long as she remained curious about the various meanings of a kiss-beyond the one she knew-he felt his gamble was worth it. Pixies were nurturers and caretakers, while elder pixies also served as leaders and protectors. Both were impossible to corruption but Elder Pixies were adventurous and liked to explore new things. Plus, Wyatt, as a primordial World Calamity Tree, represented the strongest version of their natural predator.
"You called for me, Wyatt." Maymay said, her voice emotionless, trying tried to mask her true feelings. She had figured out her emotions but hadn't fully come to terms with them. She accepted Wyatt as her friend, but after reading everything she could about kissing in the Infinity Library, she grasped Wyatt wanted to be more than just friends. Demon and Devil merchants hitting on her or trying to eat her or a part of her was not new to Maymay, it was part of the job but it never bothered or disturbed her like Wyatt did. For someone of her status and age, every demon and devil merchant appeared like a mere ignorant child. Hence, her tolerance and patients towards them.
However, in Wyatt's case it was different Maymay saw him as equal for some reason which was what made her actively seek his friendship in the first place but now that she knew that sough more than just friendship she was troubled. These feelings were all new to her and she felt too embarrassed to seek advice from her tribal elders or friends on the matter.
