“Cortney. What about Bloodette? Who is she? She was strong. I barely managed to service her attacks?” After Cortney calmed down, I asked about the blood slime I fought with at the tournament’s finals.

As for Anna, Luna, and Lorenzo, they were flying around the Megamorpher, scanning every inch of its humongous body. Apparently, witnessing the height of the MegaMorpher, the Heatsend Royal trio had sudden enlightenment, and they intended to use it for something of immense importance and were unwilling to share it with me.

I tried to offer my help forcefully, but Anna adamantly refused my offer, saying that I did not have enough privilege level required to know the information they had. So I was kept out of the loop. And we were asked to stay on standby as they performed their tests on the MegaMorpher. Whatever these people were keeping from me, it had to be huge.

“Bloodette is my friend. According to her, she is a Supreme being sealed in the dungeon by ancient card apprentices who walked this world before us.” Cortney narrated what she knew about Bloodette. It was too little, but to be someone’s friend, that was all it took, in Cortney’s case.

‘Supreme Beings’ ‘Dungeon Seal’ ‘Ancient Card Apprentice’, another new wave of questions, were added to the list of questions whose answers I had to find. I think I will find answers to this list of questions in the libraries of the top ten universities or with their faculty members. I also had Clown Mask’s memories of the alternative future. Maybe I could find an answer there. But for now, I decide to answer Cortney, the source of the question herself.

“What are Supreme beings?”

“…”

“What is a Dungeon Seal?”

“…”

“What is an Ancient Card apprentice?”

“…”

“If she is sealed in a dungeon by an Ancient Card apprentice, how did you summon her?” Throwing all the questions that Cortney could not answer to the back of my head, I decided to ask her the simplest one hoping she knew the answer for that.

“That I can answer. Using the Soul pact card given to me by Bloodette.” Finally being asked something she knew about, Cortney hurriedly answered.

“Soul pact card? What is that? This is the first time I am hearing about it.” I have heard of origin cards, Item cards, Skill cards, but Soul pact cards I have never heard or read of them.

“Apparently, you have to form a soul contract with intelligent beasts and monsters to get these soul pact cards. Both the parties should be willing participants of the contract and should be signed with the World and its rules as a witness.” Cortney recollected what Bloodette told her about the soul pact and narrated it to me.

“Can you summon her now? I would like to talk to her.” Since I could not get answers from Cortney, I decided to ask Bloodette herself. If she is as old as she claims to be, I could find all the answers to the list of questions I have.

“About that, after what happened yesterday. I have tried summoning Bloodette to apologize to her, but she is not responding to my summons. I think she is still mad at me for forcing her to go against her will and kill you.” After the tournament, Cortney had a lot of free time, especially during the night, so she tried running Bloodette to apologize, but all her summons were unanswered. Courtney could forcefully summon Bloodette, making use of her unique physique and origin card. But it could be counterproductive, seeing how that was the reason why Bloodette was angry with her.

“Are you sure she did not want to kill me? I am pretty sure she came very close to killing me.” According to Cortney, Bloodette did not want to kill me for reasons unknown. And I had a hard time believing that because I fought with and knew how close I was to death.

“That was the World forcing her body to kill you. If Bloodette’s will did not oppose the World’s Control, She would have killed you.” It seems due to the opposition of Bloodette. The world could not display her full power allowing me to survive and win the tournament’s finals.

“And why did she not want to kill me?” I was curious why Bloodette would go so far as to oppose the world for me.

“Oh, she did not oppose because she did not want to kill you. She opposed it because she wanted more blood pudding for the services she provides.” Cortney cleared the misunderstanding I had.

“Just because of a few blood puddings? As simple as that. Haha, She seems interesting. I would like to meet her someday.” Knowing more about Bloodette, my interest in her peaked, and I wanted to meet the being that went against the world and its rules for a few blood puddings. Someone so crazy I had to meet her. Resisting the influence of the world and its rules is not easy. When I first came in contact with the World, I was paralyzed in its presence and Spent time floating around in the world’s pool of rules. And for Bloodette to oppose the World with her will was no ordinary feat. She did lose control of her body to the World, but still, her will did not give in to the influence of the World.

“What do you think, old man? Is this thing sturdy enough to cross the river?” Anna asked Lorenzo who was using his grimoire to scan the structure and mechanics of the MegaMorpher.

“Nope, the waters of the river will rupture and tear this Synonium Alloy body in a matter of seconds. The moment this thing goes into the river, it will be wrecked by the intense pressure and flow exerted by the water.” Lorenzo continued scrutinizing the Megamorpher as he answered Anna.

“I think it can work if we change the ores and broken runes used to create this Mecha.” Luna expressed her opinion.
