Hidden in the void, Field Marshal Heatsend could not help but frown listening to Wyatt explain how a Chaos Dwarf came to be his source of information. Field Marshal Heatsend could see that Wyatt was cunning enough to take care of himself but was it enough when dealing with a Chaos Dwarf? When dealing with a dark race one cannot be more careful. After digesting the information, she inquired, "Now that you are sharing this info with us, I take it you trust the Chaos Dwarf enough and believe that the information it shared with you is true and has no deception to it." "Yes," Wyatt nodded firmly. He needed to sell the idea that Chaos Dwarf was their friend to the Southern Royal family. Otherwise, none of his plans would work. "Do you mind explaining how the Chaos Dwarf gained your trust?" Field Marshal asked Wyatt worrying that he might be tricked by the Chaos Dwarf. Considering that it was a dark race one could not put anything past them, their trickery knew no bounds. "Obviously, through a pact," Wyatt replied Listening to Wyatt's answer, Field Marshal almost slapped her forehead in frustration. Controlling her emotions, she patiently inquired, "Wyatt, you do know that if the Chaos Dwarf used a pseudonym then the pact signifies nothing." "Please, this is not my first time dealing with a devil. I have not only made sure it was using its true name but also made the Dark Realm's will and Card Realm's will as the witness to the pact. Besides, I did not commit to anything in exchange for the information. The Chaos Dwarf volunteered the information hoping for a friendship. Seeing how the Chaos Dwarf did not hesitate to give its true name and form a pact with the dark realm's will as a witness, I think the Chaos Dwarf sincerely wants to cooperate with us," Wyatt responded confidently. He said everything he could to assure Field Marshal. "Good," Field Marshal sighed in relief, now that her mind was at peace a little she asked something she was itching to ask from earlier, "What did you mean when you said that the reason Gideon Grim has been more active recently may be related to him joining the dark faction, 'Seven Princes of Hell'?" Listening to the Field Marshal bring up this now, Wyatt grinned in his mind knowing that the fish had caught the bait he threw earlier. Just giving the Field Marshal loads of information would only cause her to try and discern which one was true and which was a trap. But if she were to connect the dots herself, she was more likely to believe them rather than rip them apart to wonder which was true and which was false. "Your guess is correct, Gideon Grim is preparing to help the dark faction called 'Seven Princes of Hell' invade Card Realm," Wyatt answered with a grim expression, trying to convey how dire the situation was to the Field Marshal.

"Everything has changed," the Field Marshal blurted in shock. The only reason Field Mashal immediately did not jump to this conclusion when Wyatt hinted at a possible demon invasion earlier was that a second demon invasion did not occur in the Clown Mask's future vision. But considering that the miracle Dalton Wyatt and powerful enemies like Gideon Grim also never surfaced in Clown Mask's vision, Field Marshal understood that the current timeline has long diverted vastly from Clown Mask's future vision. Her husband was right they cannot use the Clown Mask's future vision as absolute but just as a mere reference in the infinite possibilities. After all, lot of thinking Field Marshal replied to Wyatt with a measured tone, "Wyatt, I trust you so I one hundred percent trust the information you acquired from the chaos dwarf but that will not be enough for the others. What I am saying is we need evidence to back our claims. Can you contact the Chaos Dwarf and ask if it can give any evidence to support its information?"

Listening to the Field Marshal demand evidence, Wyatt was dejected in his mind as what he was trying to void inevitably happened. But still with a confident expression, he replied to the Field Marshal, "I will try." "It will be best if you can convince the Chaos Dwarf to contact us," Field Marshal still did not fully trust the Chaos Dwarf. Though the Chaos Dwarf had gotten Wyatt's seal of approval, she would feel more at ease if it got her niece's seal of approval. "Sure, I can make that happen," Wyatt replied without hesitation as wanted the Chaos Dwarf and the Southern Royal family to meet. There were many things that he could not do as Dalton Wyatt which he wanted to achieve through his alternate identity as a Chaos Dwarf. "Now, that I have you here, I have some things to discuss with you too. Do you still plan to attend Morningstar University?" Field Marshal asked Wyatt out of the blue. "Why do you ask? I thought the royal family did not like me attending Morningstar University. Unless you guess changed your mind about it," Wyatt was surprised to hear the Field Marshal bring up Morningstar University. After all, the Southern Royal family strongly opposed his plan to develop the Central Academic region. "After the Southern Capital incident, despite denying its involvement in the incident Morningstar University has started to warm up to the Southern Royal family. The strained relationship between us after the betrayal of Luna and the supposed theft of the dungeon relocation apparatus, now are stronger than new. They have not only increased the number of regulated resources such as Time-rule cards Southern region can procure from them but also increased the number of scholarship seats for the students from the Southern region. They have promised many more benefits which previously were not available to the Southern Region. It is as if they are trying very hard to make up for the Southern Capital incident even though deny the part they played in it."
