Chapter 588: Tag Along

Date- 30 Mar 2321

Time- 20:31

Location- Sky Blossom City, D-rank Silver Beach Gate Dungeon

"I thought using a curse card on a person requires the personal effects of the victim. For example, hair, blood, nails, sweaty cloth, etc." I knew curse cards were a thing, but I was not worried about them because long-distance and high-level curses needed the victim's DNA to work. As for low-level and close-ranged curses, they were more of a debuff than a curse. 

"If they can send 30 card emperors to kill you, then they can send somebody to go through your trash to collect whatever is required to curse you. If you think you don't require the ring, feel free to return it. I don't want one of my item card slots to be occupied for your ungrateful ass." Be it a golden grade grimoire or diamond grade grimoire, they both have six-item card slots. The fact that Anna was willing to temporarily sacrifice one of those precious slots for me meant a lot, and I was moved. Therefore, I decided to look over her rudeness earlier. 

Giving me a ring was a strategic move on Anna's mother's part as she needed me alive for the Heatsend Royal family to flourish. I was the creator of silver milk powder, its patent owner, and the soul contract between Anna and me. If the patent weren't in my name but the Heatsend Royal family's name, Anna's mother herself would be the first to try and have me erased from the face of this world. If I died, the patent would belong to the Duskborn family or the government. Either way, the Heatsend Royal family would be in trouble. Seeing how the ring was given to me to protect their family's interest, I felt safe but not grateful. 

"No, I will be keeping it. Thank you for the ring, and I will leave now." I appreciate that Anna went out of her way and volunteered to sacrifice her item card slot temporarily for me when she could have any other card emperor to do it. And this card emperor would be Anna's Mother's spy to keep tabs on me. 

"Okay, where are we headed?". Asked Anna as she sat on the back seat of the nanomorpher. 

.

"F-rank Horned Hare Heaven gate dungeon… wait! I did not know you would be tagging along." I am bewildered. One moment she asks me to leave, and now she tags along with me, 'what do you want from me, woman?' I wanted to yell this but chose not to. 

"I have nothing to do here and am bored. I was planning to visit you. Since you are here, accompany me." Since all her roles were taken over by the ideal daughter, Ann, Anna had no work here and was free to do as she pleases. 

"I'm sorry, but I cannot accompany you. I'm busy, and I have matters to attend to." I needed to talk to Corey about otherworldly stuff and time rewind earlier. Therefore, I thought bringing a card emperor who has a personal interest in me would be a bad idea. 

"It's okay, do what you have to. I will quietly tag along." Saying that, Anna leaned on me with her massive melons pressing on my back while her arms folded around my waist. Laying her head on my shoulder, she whispered in my ears, "I don't know what's holding you back, but please give me a chance."

"... I will think about it once I settle the score with people that wronged the Wyatt family." I planned to live a chilled life. In it, I had a girl in my arms. It wasn't clear who the girl was, but I had no time to pursue her as, right now, I had a lot of scores to settle. 

"I will be waiting. But you better finish it quickly. Because I don't know how long I can hold back from pouncing on you." After whispering into my ears, Anna gently chewed on my earlobe. 

"Fine, you can tag along. But you will have to behave or…." 

"Or what? You will punish me~." I could feel Anna's steamy breath on my neck as she said these words. 

"No! I was going to say I will ditch you." I corrected Anna. 

…

"Anna, does your family have a time manipulation card?" While on route to F-rank Horned Hare Heaven Gate Dungeon, I decided to pick Anna's brains regarding the time manipulation cards and their users. 

"No, we don't." As Anna replied, I felt a tingly sensation due to her breathing on my neck. 

"None, really? Is there anybody in this world with Time manipulation or related cards or not?" The Heatsend Royal family has a long history with generations of demigods in their family. It was a surprise to hear that they did not have time manipulation or related cards. 

"Not to my knowledge, no. I have studied my records about wars in different eras, and there has been a single mention of a cord apprentice, supreme being, or monster that could manipulate time. Why do you ask?" Anna's ancestors have recorded all the wars they fought, be it with card apprentices, supreme beings, or monsters from dungeons. Hoping that their battles will be a lesson for their children. 

"I was thinking about rules, how many kids are there, what they are, and if time was one of the rules." Choose not to mention the ten minutes world rewind to Anna unless I am sure it will not harm us. 

"I don't know. But there is a saying that there are millions of rules with millions of meanings. Maybe time is one of them, but I have never seen or heard anybody use it. If there is someone in hiding, they sure are wise to hide because both Orthodox and unorthodox parts of the world will hunt them to get their hands on their broken runes and cards. They have no place in this world. It would be in their best interest for them to stay hidden."
