Chapter 966: Spirit Of Compitation

Date- 3 April 2321         

    

Time- 23:44     

Location- Sun Blossom City, Circle Headquarters, Fine Gold carrier floaters     

Despite knowing my plans and that semi-demigods were protecting me from the shadows, Mike did not flee, showing that the Circle had determined to kill me too. This means they must have prepared a few card semi-demigods on their side to stop my semi-demigod bodyguards from saving me when Mike tries to kill me. But the question was where were the Circle's semi-demigods hiding? I ask this because, knowing Anna, she must be keeping an eye out for the Circle's semi-demigods using the array formation covering the southern region.

Anna would do this because if Circle's semi-demigods were to enter the southern region without prior permission or probable cause they would be considered enemies of the state and the Southern royal family could react to it as they see fit, which means nobody could question Anna if she were to kill them. But I don't think the card apprentices from the Circle would be that stupid. I could only wait and see what the circle had in store.      

"Boss, should I order the tropes to descend?" Cindy asked seeing me contemplate something.      

"No, I have something different in mind," Saying that I removed a card from my card holder and handed it to Diana.     

Seeing me hand her a card Diana accepted it without question and went through its card info than with a dignified expression she looked back at me mumbling, "Boss this…"      

"Go Wild, I want this place wiped out from the face of this world," I said looking at the Circle's headquarters below.      

"Thank you, Boss. I will not disappoint you," Diana nodded and then equipped the card that I had handed to her after that she chanted, "Summon Rune Card Wind Rule Ego Elemental."      

With that, another wind rule Ego Elemental appeared behind Diana. Having read the card info Diana knew that both Wind rule ego elementals her boss had gifted her were of the same rule but had different meanings to them. One of them was of the sensory meaning of the wind rule and the other was of the haste meaning of the wind rule.      

"How come my sister got two ego elementals? Not fair," Jaya complained watching her elder sister summon another wind rule ego elemental.      

"I am not giving her the card, I am just loaning it to her. She will return it to me when we are done here," This was the reason why I did not give Diana the card earlier. I did not care about Jaya's feelings but Cindy was the another case. I planned to have Cindy and Diana to keep each other in check. This would be best achieved if I don't appear partial. So, for Cindy to not get the wrong idea, I had to play it like this. This was where I missed the calamity daughter gems, I did not need to care for their feelings and opinion, if I was happy they were happy and their world revolved around me.      

"Yes, boss," learning that the second ego elemental was just a loaner and not a gift like the previous one, Diana's expression dulled but she soon got over it hearing,

"Maybe if you guys earn enough merits, exchanging them for an ego elemental is not impossible," I said looking at Diana, Cindy, and Jaya.      

"How much merit for a Fire rule Ego Elemental?" Jaya immediately asked.      

"You don't need to worry about the merits, I will ask you when I feel like you have earned enough merits worth exchanging for a reward," I replied. I did not have a merit system in store so I came up with this bullshit on spot but if I did had one then exchanging Ego Elementals would be pricy and performing well in a small guild war like this would not be enough for either of them to get the merits required to exchange for it.     

"..." Hearing my explanation Jaya gave me a blank stare. It seems all her enthusiasm from before vanished after learning that I would be the judge of who gets how many merits for what. But the same was not true for Cindy and Diana, they became alarmed misinterpreting my words. And felt that their every action was monitored and graded. They were okay with it because they would do the same if they were in their boss's shoes. This also meant the throne of the blossom District was up for grabs.      

This misinterpretation excited Cindy, as previously she thought that after their boss left, Diana would ascend his throne to gain control of the Blossom district but now it was clear that it was not set in stone. After Diana's poor behavior previously it was not a surprise that their boss may have come back to square one, that is, deciding the next in line for his business down south, and Cindy did not know who her boss was leaning toward but she knew that she was one of the main contenders and this war here was her chance to perform and leave a long-lasting impression.      

Diana's thoughts were not much different from Cindy's but this did not mean that she was upset that the position she was promised had become shaky, as it was her fault. And she was not worried that Cindy or others would be given the blossom district as she thought she could get her boss to change his mind and win back what was promised to her with her new attitude towards life.      

Seeing that Diana and Cindy may have misinterpreted my explanation to Jaya, I did not correct them because Cindy and Diana were competing with each other, that was what I wanted. Hopefully, they both will keep the spirit of competition in their mind because last thing I want was them conspiring against each other, that would not be productive. It seems I will have to think of something to make sure that either of them doesn't cross the line.
