Chapter 1948 Field Marshal\'s Support
Location- Card World, Southern Region, Blossom District, Sky Blossom City
The Field Marshal was very cautious when she proposed the wager to Wyatt. Yes, she was confident in the secret facility holding Clown Mask. However, she was also sure that Wyatt would not make empty claims. She knew Wyatt enough to not underestimate him.
She believed since he said he could free Clown Mask, then he might already be aware of the secret facility where Clown Mask was being held and its whereabouts. What puzzled her the most was his confidence to make such a claim despite knowing the secret facility and its capabilities.
Even the leader of the Freedom Fighter Henricks would not dare to make such a claim as even his origin card ability allowed him to go anywhere he wanted to would not be able to enter that place. This was not just the field Marshal\'s speculation but fact.
After Luna defected to the Freedom Fighters, it was clear that she had informed Henricks about Clown Mask and her future vision. Yet he never came to kidnap her, that was because of the secret facility. In there, everyone was mortal regardless of their realm. Even the Field Marshal was a mere mortal in there but thanks to her \'Unparalleled bloodline\' she could retain her physical prowess.
So it was puzzling to the Field Marshal that Wyatt would claim that the could free Clown Mask. She even doubted if Wyatt had no idea about the secret facility which was why he had made such a bizarre claim but then she did not dare to underestimate Wyatt.
Therefore the Field Marshal added a strict time limit to her wager. 8 hours, Wyatt had to complete the wager in 8 hours. That was the minimum amount of time it would take her to reach the secret facility at her maximum speed, but it was a different story if she used a teleportation card. So she would like to see Wyatt free Clown Mask from the secret facility in the next eight hours. Not to mention she had already contacted the personnel in charge of the secret facility to upgrade the security of the facility to maximum security and a separate security detail to constantly monitor Clown Mask.
This way, even if Wyatt were to somehow manage to reach the secret facility and infiltrate it, he would never be able to sneak Clown Mask out of there with security constantly monitoring the Clown Mask. Worst comes to worse, in case she was alerted of a disturbance in the facility she will carry Wyatt and go there to check on the facility. With her there, Wyatt can forget about helping Clown Mask escape the facility.
So no matter how she saw it, the Field Marshal felt that she would win the wager. Still, if Wyatt were to somehow manage to pull a miracle and free Clown Mask from the secret facility, all she would be losing was the right to persuade Wyatt not to pursue the criminal rehabilitation and reintegration program.
Despite ensuring all this, the Field Marshal was still worried. What she was worried about was if Wyatt would agree to her wager. And she had good reason to be worried as Wyatt did not agree to her wager saying, \'Only a fool would agree to that wager.\'
Seeing her worry come true the Field Marshal felt bad and a little happy that she did not enter a wager with Wyatt. After all, was someone who fooled the devil. The devil was so infuriated that it had sent its incarnation to kill him, yet failed to kill him. Field Marshal could not bring herself to underestimate Wyatt so she was a little relieved that Wyatt did not agree to her wager, it saved her eight hours of constant worry.
However, her relief had arrived too soon as Wyatt was not done. Rejecting her wager, he requested better stakes for the wager, \'Your Highness, I will agree to your wage if you are willing to increase stakes. If I win the wager I want your full support with regards to my criminal rehabilitation and reintegration program.\'
\'That\'s it?\' the Field Marshal asked in puzzlement, she thought Wyatt would try to increase the time lime of the wager but to her astonishment, he did not.
\'Yes, that is it. So do we have a wager?\' Wyatt asked gentle smile graced his lips feeling that the Field Marshal was cute. Did she think that he did not know that the eight-hour time limit wasn\'t even sufficient for him to reach the secret facility unless he used a teleportation card to get teleported to a location near the secret facility?
Unfortunately for the Field Marshal, no matter how cautious she was, she had no idea about the means at his disposal. Stuck in the card world, the Field Marshal\'s experience and knowledge were seriously limited for someone of her strength. Wyatt wondered why she never tried to venture into the dark realm like her ancestors.
Was it because of the Southern Region\'s poor state? Well, when her house was not in order how can she have time for adventures? Wyatt did not believe that the Southern Royal family did not have a way to enter the dark realm when their ancestors had managed to successfully stop a demon invasion. After all, it was impossible to kill a devil unless they were slain in the Dark realm.
Listening to Wyatt\'s proposal, the Field Marshal contemplated hard, whether to enter a wager with Wyatt. She found it funny how she was the one who proposed the wager but now she was hesitating to agree to it. In the heat of the moment, she wanted to agree to the wager, but seeing Wyatt\'s confidence she could not bring herself to agree to it. Not to mention if she lost she would have to support him with his foolish idea.
After a lot of contemplation, she still could not ignore the change to guide Wyatt back to the right path, so she agreed, "Fine, you have eight hours starting now."
