Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild a.s.sociation Mall, Warehouse no.234.
The last few minutes have been crazy. Not only did I get to see a person in a realm higher than the card emperor but also an incarnation of a demiG.o.d. These were the most powerful card apprentices I had seen so far in this world. If not for the presence of Anna I would be panicking right now.
"Don"t worry your highness. My family knows I am here so they will not be bothered with your unannounced visitation." Replied Anna, in the past few days Anna had killed an old demiG.o.d hag and a fat molten lava devil. When she could fight toe to toe with a demiG.o.d she had nothing to be worried about facing an incarnation of a demiG.o.d. Anna wouldn"t even care to be respectful to this demiG.o.d if not for his contributions on the way beyond thanks to his special abilities.
"Hm… I see." DemiG.o.d Windsor saw no fear nor respect in Anna"s eyes. Considering that he was talking to a Heatsend family cub, DemiG.o.d Windsor wasn"t surprised.
"Father, she called me little and tried to trap me here." The pet.i.te little school girl complained pointing at Anna.
"Sweetpea, what are you doing in this remote area?" The demiG.o.d Windsor"s incarnation did not blame the little girl for summoning him for petty little things. Like any overly doting parent, all of his daughter"s actions seemed adorable to Windsor. Still, he knew not to involve himself with children"s fights but he wasn"t afraid of bailing his daughter out.
"I came here to recruit that boy in my wolf fang mercenary but he called me short and killed Tundra." The little girl replied pointing at me.
"Did he now?" A deterring pressure descended on me when the demiG.o.d Windsor"s gaze landed on me. Under his scrutinizing gaze, I felt bare naked despite all the articles of clothing I was wearing. It felt like I couldn"t hide anything from his eyes.
"Interesting, what are you boy?" Asked DemiG.o.d Windsor. He never expected that he would come across someone so peculiar in this remote region.
"Your highness I don"t understand." I didn"t know how to answer demiG.o.d Windsor"s question. What does he mean by what I am?
"Heatsend girl, we will be out of hair right away and I will be taking that boy with me." DemiG.o.d Windsor waved his hand at me, and I felt an invisible force pull me towards him.
"No" Anna appeared next to me and laid her hand on my shoulder, and I felt the invisible grip pulling me shatter.
"What are you doing?" DemiG.o.d Windsor was shocked by Anna"s audacity.
"Windsor, that is what I should be asking you? What are you doing trying to kidnap a citizen of the southern region?" Anna dropped the honorific as soon as she found that Windsor"s initiation damaged her interest.
"Soul piercing eyes." Agatha"s eyes twinkled with bright light and then the bright light shot into Anna"s eyes. Agata did not like the fact that Anna addressed demiG.o.d Windsor without respect. So she didn"t hesitate to try and kill Anna. But she underestimated Anna, the bright ray of lights immediately scattered as they came in contact with a diamond barrier covering her body.
"Agatha, step back." DemiG.o.d Windsor"s Incarnation ordered Agatha.
"But, your highness—" Agatha tried to explain her reasons but was cut off
"I said stand down. You are not her match." Handling his subordinate, Windsor"s incarnation turned to face Anna, " Headsend girl, those are quite an accusation."
"Windsor, take your arrogant little daughter and leave while I give you the chance to. Do not make me repeat myself." Anna gave Windsor an ultimatum.
"You know there is ignorance and then there is arrogance. Neither is good for a person. I don"t know if it"s your ignorance or your arrogance that made you reckless enough to speak those words to me but I am willing to let that slide as long as you hand over the boy." DemiG.o.d Windsor was patient with Anna"s ultimatum and said everything can be forgotten as long as she handed over the boy to him.
"Don"t say I didn"t warn you. Activate, Southern Emperor." Anna immediately connected with the southern region"s array formation and borrowed its power to temporarily climb the demiG.o.d realm.
"No wonder—" the astonished DemiG.o.d Windsor"s incarnation was interrupted by Anna.
"Let"s see how much your daughter is worth to you. Giga punch!" Anna threw a punch at the DemiG.o.d Windsor"s incarnation and shattered it into pieces. Then turning to the pet.i.te schoolgirl she said, "Agatha if you value your princess"s life then you better behave. And Ada, how much are you worth to your daddy? We will finally know."
"..." Seeing Anna destroy the incarnation of the demiG.o.d I realized that the strongest person I had seen in this world was still Anna. To not attract the demiG.o.d"s attention I didn"t dare to use soul pupil so I missed how Anna was able to borrow such huge power to step into the demiG.o.d realm.

Location- Somewhere in the Way beyond.
A dignified middle-aged man who was monitoring the actions of a particular supreme being and its troops not far from the Way beyond suddenly frowned. The incarnation he had left with his daughter was killed. And the information it carried to him upon its demise was valuable.
First, his daughter was in safe hands, but he will have to burn a hole in his pocket to get her back.
Second, the next generation leader of the Heatsend royal family had been selected and it was none other than the current leader"s granddaughter, Anna Heatsend.
Third, He found a young card apprentice on whom his special ability didn"t work.
The selection of the next-generation heir of the Heatsend Royal family was prioritized by demiG.o.d Windsor over the fact that his ability didn"t work on a mere card soldier. This showed how much the world would be affected by the information that Anna was already chosen as the next heir to the Southern Region throne.
...
"You will pay for this." Aba threatened while glaring at Anna.
"Uh? you didn"t learn your lesson, did you, little girl. Have you forgotten your daddy isn"t present here to save you today?" As Anna played with Aba as if she were a little doll.
"Eight" uttered Aba.
"Eight, what?" Asked Anna.
"Eight times you have addressed me as little." The arrogant pet.i.te schoolgirl had already proved that she could hold a grudge. But Anna didn"t care. She was busy making Aba ware embracing dresses.
"Five" Anna muttered.
"Five what?" Asked puzzled Aba.
"I have five embarra.s.sing photos of you, each one taken in different dresses. And there will be more. If you don"t want these pictures to be circulated in your high school, pipe down and be obedient. Every time I feel like your att.i.tude is not sincere or respectful enough I will send one of your pictures to your friends. For your sake, you better behave." Anna spoke with a s.a.d.i.s.tic smile.
"You wouldn"t!" Aba exclaimed in distress.
"Try me, little girl. You will be surprised to see what I am capable of." Anna replied as she continued to indulge in her s.a.d.i.s.tic tendencies.
"..." Aba heard Anna call her little girl loud and clear but she didn"t dare to count out the number of times Anna called her little. This didn"t mean that she had stopped counting.
"Anna, what is going on here? Who is this little girl?" Unable to wait for Anna to explain, I asked her.
"I thought you would never ask. This is Aba Windsor, only daughter of the DemiG.o.d Windsor." Anna introduced me to Aba. DemiG.o.d"s only daughter no wonder she dared to be so arrogant.
"Her father DemiG.o.d Windsor is of humble background and reached the demiG.o.d realm on his effort. He didn"t attend a top university or a regular university for that matter. He was a vagabond who roamed city to city doing the minimal job until one day. He builds his strength and life from scratch. But most believe that he had a lucky encounter that let him soar to the top of the world." Anna gave a short detailed description of the demiG.o.d Windsor. He seems to be born among the oppressed people. It was already impressive how he came to this point, be it with help of a lucky encounter or not.
"Aba what did you mean earlier when you said you wanted to recruit me into your Wolf Fang mercenary group? I thought you were here to create your origin card, a mutated slime summon." Knowing Aba"s background it was clear she did not need me to help her create her origin card if she needed one. Yet I did not understand why she would contact me. What purpose did she have? what does she want from me? What did she mean when she wanted to recruit me?
