When Belphegor and Wyatt, turned their head to face the source of space and time crack sound, they found that the rule power released by Colleen's fist was slowly freezing the secondary time flow around it. To their surprise Colleen's fist moved freely in the frozen part of the secondary time flow as a result a sudden burst of rule power was released from it, further freezing the secondary time flow around Colleen's upper body. With that Colleen's upper body was now free to move about in the frozen part of the secondary time flow. When her paused body started to move it caused the frozen part of the secondary time flow to crack. 

"Don't you dare underestimate me!" Colleen yelled as he eyes opened in the secondary time flow. And then seeing that the rate at which her rule power was freezing the secondary time flow was not fast enough for her to free move around in it, she muttered to herself, "Not enough." 

Soon huge amount of rule power poured out of Colleen's body at her command boosting the rate at which the secondary time flow froze with her in the center. Seeing this Belphegor's exhausted face turned hideous as he cussed at Colleen, "Bitch, stop feeding on my secondary time flow." 

Belphegor was having a hard time maintaining the secondary time flow at the expense of his life force and now, with Colleen's Cyrosynthesis feeding off it, he did not know how long he could maintain the time flow with the little life force he had left after creating the Plaugue egg. 

"Shut the fuck up, you swine," cussing the devil, Colleen focused on increasing the rate at which her rule power could freeze the secondary time flow as she could only move about in the frozen part of the secondary time flow. 

After the Freedom Fighter incident, Colleen not only took some drastic measures that she previously would never considered but also focused her training. Becoming a demigod she could better help her family, instead, ever since she became a demigod, she felt like a burden. 

From almost being assassinated by Matron's forces in the Way Beyond for the forsaken treasure to losing the only source of the silver milk, even if she had grown stronger she felt nowhere strong enough to shoulder a part of the responsibilities her husband and children have been shouldering so long. 

She understood that it was not fair to compare her humble birth with the unparalleled bloodline but she never let that hold her back before neither was she going to let it now. So she trained hard and went beyond her limits. Using the abundant resources of the Southern Royal family at her disposal she polished her abilities to the extreme in the little time she had. 

As a testament to that now she could use her Cyrosynthesis to freeze space and time, feed on them. That was why she believed it would be different when she faced Henricks again. However, now she witnessed that her rule power was still not vigorous and fast enough to freeze the entire space and time in an instant. Yet, she kept the confidence to fight Henricks as he was proficient in Space rule and not time rule. 

With his time ticking, Belphegor chose to ignore Colleen who though had managed to tap into this secondary time flow using her Cyrosythesis was also limited by it, as such she was not a threat to him in the secondary time flow. Turning to glance at Wyatt, raising the plague egg he said, "Kid, what is going to be? I don't have much time left so hurry."

Wyatt looked at Belphegor's Worldhog incarnation. Earlier it was bulky and covered in fiery fur but now its muscles had shrunk, the flame rule covering its fur had been lifted, and its bone stuck to its skin. The hole in its stomach, from where it dug out the plague egg did not heal back. Instead, It looked sickly, nearing its end. It was surprising that it was still able to stand 150 meters tall and use the time rule. 

Just as Wyatt was about to give his answer to the devil's offer, Colleen spoke up saying, "Wyatt, don't listen to him. Let him detonate the plague, I will freeze it before it spreads. Besides, during the demon war, we have successfully cured countless plagues released by kind in our world. We did it back then we can do it now." 

Colleen appeared confident that her rule power was capable enough to freeze and eliminate the plague before it spread. Even if she failed, the card apprentice of the card world has proven capable enough to find a cure for the malicious plagues in many instances. Therefore, she did not see any need for Wyatt to risk his life to save the world by implanting the plague again in his body. 

Listening to Colleen's words, Wyatt looked at her to confirm if what she was saying was true. Colleen gave him an assuring nod implying that he did not need to risk his life. As he was more valuable than minions of people put together. 

"Hahaha," Belphegor laughed hysterically, and sneering at Colleen he revealed, "My plague is different from any you have faced in the past. I created using the Realm fragments. Making it so potent that in no time it will spread to your world's will and since it is busy fighting the will of the dark realm it will not have the power to defend against the plague and eventually succumb to it. From their only death and destruction awaits you all." 

"You are bluffing," Colleen did not believe the devil had something as precious as a realm fragment and even if it did she did not believe a devil would use something as priceless as the realm fragment to create a plague. 

"Little girl, it doesn't matter if you believe me or not. He knows whether I am bluffing or not."
