After a good 10 minutes of wait, Asong left the side of Aba who was engrossed watching her father's old card duels, and she turned to look at Wyatt saying, "Where were we?"
"I hate politicians," Wyatt declared right to Asong's face.
"Good, you should. None of us are honest people," Asong responded shamelessly as if Wyatt's words did not affect her.
"Just tell me what happened," Wyatt requested, from Agatha's version of the World Decree incident, Wyatt had a few speculations about the World Decree. From Asong's version of the incident, he wanted to confirm them. As long as he had a rough idea of what was going on he could prepare for Anna's mother's plans for him.
"You sure you can trust the words of a politician?" Asong used Wyatt's words against him.
"I have no choice. Besides, I have nothing to worry about if it is from a politician who was too honest to save her career," Wyatt was no Aba, he knew how to fight his battles.
"I will take that as a compliment," Asong did not expect Wyatt to use her failing career as a politician against her.
"You should, none of the politicians are honest people," Wyatt finished Asong with her own words.
"I always thought the Southern Royal family mobilizing Anna's mother against you was an overkill but I see you left them no choice," Asong was not the only one to think that many thought as such. Still, she was the only one to realize the helplessness of the Southern Royal family when it comes to dealing with the Dalton Wyatt.
"I will take that as a compliment," Wyatt replied slyly.
Listening to Wyatt, Asong rolled her eyes and threw her arms in the air showing that she had given up. Then proceeded to explain the World Decree incident to Wyatt, "As far as I know the Southern Capital incident was planned by Central government and Morningstar University's attempt to kidnap you for your knowledge on Soul energy digestion effect card and VR universe.
It is said that the devil worshipper attack on the Southern capital was planned by the Central Government to distract the Southern Royal family as their agents kidnapped you. As for Morningstar University, they had no clue about this but when the time came they chose to support it.
I will not go into detail about what happened next in the Southern capital since you were there and all. However, while you were fighting for your life in the Southern Capital the news about what the Central Government was up to happened reached the ears of the Ruler of the South.
Enraged, the Ruler of the South wanted to burn the central government to the ground but since he was tasked with guarding the Way Beyond, he could not leave the Way Beyond. Duty Bound, the Ruler of the South sent his incarnation to the Central Capital to seek justice.
I heard the Ruler of the South's incarnation had a very irritating attitude, one of the founders had to come in person to appease him. But still, the Ruler of the South's incarnation was not willing to leave until he got justice for the Southern Region.
The Founder and Ruler of the South's incarnation were both not willing to take a step back, just when everyone thought a battle was going to break out, the founder proposed a wager to the Ruler of the South's incarnation, that the winner take all.
The founder proposed, that if his agents were able to successfully kidnap you then the Central government would get to keep you and all your inventions and discoveries so far but if they failed all your inventions and discoveries would belong to you and also you would be pardoned for borrowing devil's power.
The Ruler of the South's incarnation did not agree because he did not think the founder had the authority to make such a wager, that is when the founder took out the World Decree to assure the Ruler of the South's incarnation that he will be able to hold his end of the wager.
Next, as you know, the devil that killed the central government's forces and ultimately the founder lost and kept his end of the wager by using the World's Decree to announce that the patent and the rights of the Silver Milk Powder, Soul energy digestion card, and VR Universe belong to you and you have the final say in what to do with their rights.
If you ask me the reason for the Central Government's disgraceful loss despite planning everything to perfection was because they underestimated you. I guess nobody believed that you had such means at your disposal.
Wyatt, your actions have taken the world by storm. Too many powerful eyes are focused on you right now if not for your noble sacrifice at the end of the Southern Capital incident, I guess you would not be enjoying such peaceful times right now."
"I had no idea so much happened behind the scenes," Wyatt muttered then looking at Laura who staring at him with bright eyes, shaking his head he sighed and permitted her, "Go ahead, say it."
"See Wyatt, I told you. The Southern Royal family will never wrong you. They will always do everything in their power to save one of their own," dropping the 'I told you so' bomb Laura finally calmed down. She was so happy right now that the Southern Royal family did not let down her and their citizen's trust in them.
Wyatt ignored Laura and asked Asong, "If the founder has used the world decree to declare that the patent and all the rights of the Silver Milk Power belong to me then what happens to my previous contracts with the Southern Royal family regarding the production and distribution of silver milk powder? Are they still valid or void?"
