    Seeing the little Beam and Susan escape through the ck gate, Demigod Norley did not react as he wanted to see where the little Beam was escaping to and follow her there believing that she would lead him to Wyatt or somewhere where he was more likely to get information on Wyatt''s whereabouts.


    "I wasn''t done talking. Young people, these days have no manners. Sigh," uttering that Demigod Norley summoned his diamond grimoire to use an SSS-rank divining card to track little Beam''s whereabouts. However, to his surprise, he learned that little Beam reappeared within his divine sense range, "Young and dumb are a deadlybination. Making a card apprentice more prone to being manipted."


    …


    "Little Beam take me back," Susan yelled as she and Little Beam exited the summoning gate appearing in front of Corey and an unknown young man in histe twenties.


    Little Beam ignored Susan''s protest, retrieved its ethereal spirit body protecting Susan, and unwarping from her waist she returned to Corey''s side instantly. Then rubbing her forehead against Corey''s cheek she warped around her wrist like a pearly white bracelet.


    "Corey ask her to take me back," Susan demanded in hysteria. Seeing her like this Corey was shocked. In concern, she asked, "Big Sis what is going on?"


    "Can''t you see she is not herself, knock her down and bring her back to the Seed World. Hurry!" Seeing Susan in such a condition, Wyatt knew that she was not herself but rather being influenced by the hypnotic suggestion of Handsome Fox.


    Wyatt finally knew what hypnotic suggestion Handsome Fox had imnted in Susan, it was not the same as the one Handsome Fox had imnted in Bloodette which caused her to detonate herself with him right next to her. This was mostly because he might have figured that the self-detonation of a Card Schr was not life-threatening to a strong Card Master.


    Considering that Susan was Wyatt''s manager he must have found another use for her. That was keeping track of Wyatt''s well-being and whereabouts for him. In case all of Handsome Fox''s design to kill Wyatt failed she woulde in handy to help him n ways to ambush Wyatt sessfully. This was just Wyatt''s spection. Therefore, he did not dare to use his original form and identity in Susan''s presence.


    Knowing that Susan was not in her right mind, Wyatt thought as useless to try and talk or reason with her. This was why he wanted to knock her out and bring her back to the seed world but he could not act on it as though Little Beam had left Susan''s side and returned to Corey she was still watching out for both the girls. Therefore, he asked Corey to do it.


    "What?" Corey was taken aback hearing to morphed Wyatt. Before she could process that what he said was right, it was already toote a handsome middle-aged man appeared behind Susan out of thin air.


    As soon as he appeared, little Beam''srge red ethereal spirit body extended out from the body and protected Susan and Corey within it. Therge ethereal vertical eyes of the little Beam''s ethereal spirit body red at the neer in warning.


    "Little girl, don''t you know it is bad manners to leave in the middle of a conversation?" the dashing middle-aged man was none other than Demigod Norley.


    Susan who had no idea that somebody had arrived behind her was surprised by little Beam''s power covering her again but hearing the familiar uninterested voice, she understood what was going on. Turning around she apologized, "Your Highness, I beg your please forgiveness for leaving unannounced."


    Demigod Norely locked eyes with Susan for a second then turned to look at Corey noticing that the Sinister Snake had wound itself around her wrist. At first, if he was interested in Corey because of little Beam then he saw something more interesting about her and said, "Young miss, the snake must be your pet. Since you are simultaneously a card apprentice with a golden grimoire and a demon with a title demon core. Simr to your pet snake."


    "I don''t care who you are but little Beam is not my pet but my friend. And also, your conversation with big sis Susan ends here. Now take a hike," Corey was not being ignorant. She spoke her mind putting her faith in little Beam.


    "Corey shut up. Apologize to Highness—" Listening to Corey rudely address Demigod Norley, Susan felt her heart jump out of her heart and immediately asked Corey to apologize to him but was interrupted when he suddenly broke into wildughter.


    "Hahaha, it has been a while since a card master talked to me like this. You are lucky that you did not meet me a few decades ago. I would have loved to cut you and your pet open and probe what exactly you two are. A demigod or a demon," Demigod Norley was talkative because of his feeling of withdrawal from his old habit, especially seeing two creatures like Corey and Little Beam whose existence itself was a miracle.


    Creating a power system amodating the pros of both the Card Apprentice power system and the Demon power system was the dream project of my Card Apprentice and Demons alike. There has been some progress in this field, such as demonic cards created using demonic ingredients and demonic martial arts but none were close to what Corey achieved. This was why Demigod Norley believed her existence to be nothing short of a miracle. As for little Beam, he had already dered her existence as an alien lifeform. Since she was nothing like the life forms he hade across so far. Which naturally made him very curious about both of them.


    Seeing that Corey was about to argue with the enemy demigod, morphed Wyatt yelled at her reminding her of their objective, "Corey, shut the fuck. Knock Susan out and take her to safety."
