Time- 10:18
Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital
The plague egg squirmed and beat like a alive heart. By removing the plague egg from his Worldhog body early, Belphegor had saved a few breaths of life to negotiate with Wyatt while losing its nourishment the plague egg desperately wanted to hatch.
That was where Wyatt came into the picture, if Wyatt chose to become the new nourishment of the plague egg and prolonge its incubation cycle he could not only postpone the hatching of the plague but also choose where the plague was released.
Using these key details as an opportunity, by sacrificing his life Wyatt could save the world from Belphegor\'s plague created using a realm fragment as an ingredient.
Knowing that a plague created using a realm fragment was deadly to the world\'s will itself and there was nothing they could do to stop it, the choice was obvious to Wyatt. Not just Wyatt but Colleen too. However, she opposed Wyatt\'s decision to incubate the plague egg in his body because she felt that neither she nor the world could ask Wyatt to sacrifice himself for them.
However, the next second another thought crossed her mind, either choice given by the devil to Wyatt was a death end. It either he dies with everyone or he dies saving everyone. Thinking of it like this Colleen glared at the devil, understanding that it was playing with Wyatt. The smirk pasted on its face made it pretty obvious. It was enjoying this, it found their struggle entertaining.
A huge wage of rage climbed Colleen\'s head as she clenched her fist in anger, however, she soon loosened her fist as she understood they were helpless. They were neither powerful nor knowledgeable as the enemy they faced. Thinking about it, it was already a miracle that they pushed the devil this far.
Colleen could not help but take a second look at Wyatt in amazement, realizing that this young man was the one who had pushed the devil to such a pathetic state. She could not help but wonder how the boy gained such power last time she checked was still a card soldier and recently she did hear that he had broken through to the Card Master realm but the prowess he displayed now was far above that of a Card Master. His strength seemed to be above that of a regular demigod and even edge at the outermost boundary of the transcendence.
Such power was not possible even for a common Card Demigod, so Colleen wondered if Wyatt had once again wagered his soul to borrow a devil\'s power. If he did then the boy was reckless and more daring than she initially thought.
For some weird reason, the more Colleen looked at Wyatt more pleasing and charming he appeared to her. And noting Wyatt\'s figure she strangely thought this was the ideal grandson-in-law of the Heatsend family. Thinking, if nothing else her granddaughter knew how to pick a man.
Previously Colleen agreed to Wyatt as her grandson-in-law, it was mostly because of Anna loving him, the unfair soul contract between them, and his genius intellect that discovered the silver milk powder. But now it was different. Now, if someone were to ask why Colleen agreed to Wyatt as her grandson-in-law then the answer she would give would be \'because she found him as someone whom she would be willing to marry.\'
"Here, swallow it and it will incubate itself in you," Belphegor said handing the fleshy plague egg to Wyatt. Taking the plague egg, Wyatt carefully scrutinized it with his soul pupils. To make sure that it was what the devil claimed it was. One could not be too careful when dealing with the devil.
Seeing Wyatt take the plague egg from the Devil\'s without hesitation, Colleen\'s heart was turbulent with waves of mixed emotions. Then she yelled at her grandson-in-law, "Wyatt pass me the plague egg I will incubate it in my body. You have to live. If you live millions of people will benefit from you. So, you have to continue on living no matter what."
Colleen felt that if she had not let vengeance cloud her judgment and instead had helped Wyatt at the beginning to kill the Devil sooner then it would not have come to this. Therefore, it felt that it was only fair that she paid for her mistake.
Listening to Colleen volunteer to sacrifice herself in his place, Wyatt was touched and even felt like forgiving her for the shit she had pulled so far but he did not find the generosity in him to do so. Also, he could not let her die in his place because for him living such a life would be far worse than living with the constant pain of the plague egg incubating in him and the fear of when it will hatch, finally taking his life. He was just built that way.
Contrary to Wyatt, Belphegor mechanically pivoted his head toward Colleen in shock, when their eyes met she smirked at him. He was so happy that everything was falling into place that he did not consider that Colleen would volunteer to incubate the plague egg in Wyatt\'s place. He could not believe he was almost being outsmarted by a muscle-head no-brain card apprentice.
Getting his thoughts together, Belphegor warned, "Wyatt, swallow the plague egg right away without any trickery or I will detonate it right away." Having said that, Belphegor locked his eyes with Colleen once again and let out a provoking smirk.
"Yeah, yeah," Wyatt said without thought as he was too busy using his soul pupils to check the plague egg to see if it had a curse/hex/skill placed on it such that when Wyatt swallowed it Belphegor could use it to control him or something worse. Wyatt had explored the entire Devil merchant code market for curses so he was aware of how many various curses/hex/skills were out there with the most creepy and disgusting abilities or effects that one couldn\'t even imagine.
