"No worries, I will wait," Though Dredre's words were not optimistic, Wyatt decided to wait for the wide search to complete because he had no other option. What happened to Cortney was unheard of. There was not much Wyatt could do in this regard but wait and hope something might show up.
"You carry on with your work," Saying that Wyatt found a floating island away from Dredre's Floating island where Corey and Park had built a shack for Susan. This way he could repair his soul with little disturbance.
"Wyatt," Just then, Park called out to Wyatt. Halting his stride, he asked, "What is it?"
"I was wondering, what are you planning to do with your merchant recommendation quota?" Park's intentions could not be more obvious. She was eyeing Wyatt's merchant recommendation quota that every demon merchant receives per decade.
"I was planning to give it to Susan," Wyatt wasn't lying. He indeed plans to help Susan become a demon merchant. If before he had a few misgivings about this decision, now that the Card world already has a devil merchant and another demon merchant, he no longer felt that way.
"I see," Park replied with a mix of reactions. Should she be happy for her mother, or should she be disappointed that even in this life, she did not have the opportunity to become a demon merchant?
"How about if you gather the funds, I will help you buy three demon merchant tokens. What do you say?" Wyatt did not see any problem in helping Park become a demon merchant, especially now that he has a large faction of demon merchants targeting him and the Card World.
"You would do that for me?" Park asked in surprise. Having tried to procure merchant recommendation quotas in her past life and failed, Park knew what this meant and genuinely appreciated Wyatt's help.
"Yes, why not?" Wyatt replied nonchalantly. Later, he proceeded to ask, "You must know how costly each demon merchant recommendation quota is, right? Are you sure you can gather funds to buy three of them?"
"Don't worry about that. Little Beam is rich and she has saved my past life valuables. So, I can manage," Park replied that she was secretly rich.
"Oh, good for you. I will inform you if I find any demon merchant recommendation quota for sale," Wyatt nodded wondering how much wealth had Park saved in her past life and how many treasures Little Beam collected over a few centuries of its lifespan.
Wyatt could not help but look at Corey, who was playing with Dredre, in envy. Her origin card would not only give her incredible strength and otherworldly knowledge but also massive wealth along with strong and loyal subordinates. If not for the fact that she had to go through an identity crisis every time her origin card underwent baptism, it would have been an ideal origin card.
"What are you looking at?" Corey asked Wyatt, finding his gaze linger on her. Shaking his head, Wyatt replied, "Heaven does take care of drunks and fools."
"What are you talking about?" Corey asked in confusion. A second later, she thundered startling Dredre, "Wyatt, are you calling me an idiot?"
"If you have to ask, should I repeat myself?" Wyatt scoffed at Corey and proceeded to his floating island.
"Dalton Wyatt, are you trying to pick a fight with me? Come, I am not afraid of a fight," Corey yelled scaring startled Dredre away. Seeing this Throwing a threatening glare at Wyatt, Corey hurriedly explained herself to Dredre saying, "Dredre, I was minding my business. It's Wyatt who is picking a fight with me. I was just replying to his provocation. I did nothing wrong. Please trust me."
"Did you have to do that? It was so hard for her to get along with Dredre after you bad-mouthed her earlier," Park looked at Wyatt with a judgemental gaze.
"I did not bad-mouth her to Dredre, I just spoke the truth," Wyatt refuted. However, he could not look her in the eyes, as he was indeed guilty of trying to sabotage any chance Corey had in befriending Dredre since Corey's first meeting with Dredre.
"..." Park just continued to glance at Wyatt judgementally.
"I am not going to apologize for feeling a little jealous of Corey's origin card," Wyatt blurted.
In the heat of the moment, Wyatt revealed his honest thoughts. Embarrassed, he ignored Park and left in a hurry.
"You are telling me the great Dalton Wyatt felt jealous of Corey's origin card, am I hearing correctly," Park exclaimed, and then shaking her head she continued to say, "This proves it no matter how knowledgeable you are you're still a teenager. Don't be shy, this makes you more human compared to the godlike picture of yours the people have described in the grimoire network."
"Yeah, whatever," Wyatt hurriedly separated the space, isolating himself from Park.
Wyatt, himself, was shocked seeing how honest he was about his feelings to Park of all people. If it were Susan or Ann, he would understand but Park? He could not fathom why he would do something like that. Then he realized that he was so honest with his feelings and actions in the presence of Corey and Park because he had gotten comfortable around them. They were no longer just his acquaintances or friends but close friends. In this Card World, only Corey and Park knew most of his secrets, not even Susan or Anna knew him as much as these two did.
Wyatt was speechless understanding that an identity loon and a ghost were his close buds in this life. Without him knowing these two had found a chuck in his iron heart and lodged themselves in it.
"Fuck," Wyatt cussed aloud. Then clearing his mind of various thoughts he calmed himself to get started with his soul repair. However, just then his demon merchant codex notified him that he received a message from the devil merchant code itself.
