    Hendricks had left to fetch Joy as soon as he sensed the gue Belphegor was brewing and returnedter so neither Joy nor Henricks get to hear the devil exin how it had used its life force along with a realm fragment to create the gue.


    "Wait, by the realm fragment mentioned in the gospel of Demigod Micheal Angelo do you mean the one that allowed him to help his third daughter find the path to transcendence and gain strengthparable to the founders?" Henricks asked Colleen in shock. Until now he believed that the gospel was written by fanatics and most of the things in it were exaggerated.


    "Yes, that one. Apparently, it ismonly used by the higher devils to find their path to transcendence. That is what he said, so I do not know how much of it is true and how much of it is false. I guess, Madam Joy should be able to tell that now that she knows what to look for," Colleen asked Joy to confirm if what the devil said was true or not.


    "So that is what that energy was, now that I know what it is. I would like to reevaluate this gue''s threat level from extinction to annihtion. If it is released in this world, there will be no world left to give life a second chance," Joy dered with a grave face.


    gue Doctor Joy''s previous confidence was not reced by genuine fear mixed with curiosity, eagerness, and surprisingly a little turned on. The word quirky genius couldn''t be more right and a profound fit for Joy. As someone who had spent her whole life studying gues, the gue egg in front of her was like the holy grail of the gues. She was willing to risk losing her life just to get a chance to study it. However, knowing that her touching it could bring forth the end of the world made her hesitate.


    Belphegor watched as the three demigods discussed the potency of the gue without any hurry because he felt if Wyatt understood the gravity of the situation more clearly then it would be easier for him to coax Wyatt into incubating the gue Egg in his body. As despite the current misgiving between them Wyatt had no other choice but to trust that Belphegor would keep his word.


    "Wyatt, just swallow the egg. You have no other choice here," Belphegor struggled as he spoke these words. Hisplexion had grown darker and his skin stuck to his bone, only he knew how much willpower took on his part to cling to life to see the current negotiation to the end. For a devil, he was quite diligent.


    Hearing Belphegor''s words the three demigods stared daggers at him, any one of them could kill the current Belphegor with just their intent but they did not as they were worried that doing so would trigger the gue.


    As for Wyatt, his narrowed brows eased as he let out a gentle smile and shook his head. Then looking at the devil he said, "Go ahead, release the gue."


    Wyatt''s words did note as a shock to Belphegor alone but to the three demigods too. They could not believe their ears, they felt they were hearing wrong. But confirming that they heard right their gazes stuck to Wyatt waiting for him to exin himself.


    Ignoring the stares of the three demigods, Wyatt exined, "You in this whole scenario there only one thing I can be certain of, and that is, sooner orter you will release the gue in this world regardless of the options I choose.


    You make it sound like the option to incubate the gue egg in my body is the best option I could make in the current scenario but it is not. In many ways, it is even worse than immediately releasing the gue.


    I say that because even if I choose to incubate the gue egg in me, in case you are bored you will not hatch the gue egg right after but use it to strip my freedom and y with me. That would onlyst until you grow bored of me, then you will release the gue ending me and the world. In this situation, I will not only be losing my freedom and bing your toy for others of this world to live a few more days at best.


    Ultimately the end result will remain the same, you releasing the gue and destroying this world. After all, you wasted a realm fragment to create this gue. Knowing you, you will never suffer a loss. I bet the only reason you used a realm fragment to create this gue was because you know you can make a profit by using it to destroy the card word. A profit big enough to not only cover the cost of the realm fragment but also the loss of your WorldHog incarnation and then you will still be left with profits making your trip to Card World worth it.


    Therefore, I decided to not choose either of the choices you have given me ande up with a third choice. Where, as you release your gue into this world I will escape to the dark realm and go into hiding. Then do everything and anything to grow stronger to hunt your original body down. I heard that the devil''s body is quite resilient. So, once I get hold of it, I will cut your privates piece by piece and feed it to you until you get addicted to it," Wyatt said menacingly as he pointed at the portal connecting the card world to the dark realm.


    Instead of giving the world and its people a few more days to live by incubating the gue egg in his body Wyatt has decided to give them a shot at vengeance.


    Listening to Wyatt''s exnation, the three demigods nodded their heads in understanding and felt a newfound respect towards Wyatt for being willing to carry such a burden.


    As for Belphegor, his face was distorted with rage and a hint of fear. Just imagining the vivid picture of him being hooked on the taste of his genitals painted by Wyatt''s words Belphegor felt a chill on his back. He had no doubt in his mind that Wyatt could escape the gue because he knew Wyatt''s second identity as a demon merchant. Seeing how Wyatt was able to disy the power of a demigod despite being card master, Belphegor got a feeling that Wyatt was doing quite well as a demon merchant and regretted not having his minions find Wyatt in the devil merchant code. He never thought that a mortal not native to the dark realm would ever be able to crack it as a demon merchant. To think this bastard was lucky enough to find a strong patron. Belphegor was a demon merchant once, only he knew how he struggled to establish himself as a sessful and reputable demon merchant and grow into the devil merchant he was today.
