Location- Card World, Southern Region, Blossom District, Sky Blossom City, TSR Guild Headquarters compound
As the man who laid the foundation for the current government, Deimgod Norley never dreamed that one day he too would feel helpless. He had the power to control the five regions but because of his daughter, he was rendered powerless. During his prime, if someone had warned him of this he would have scoffed and not take their words seriously. Back then anything he set his sights on, he conquered. However, now he was reduced to a point where he had to consider the feelings of a freaking teenager.
"Will you freaking say something?" Demigod Norley yelled in annoyance seeing that Wyatt did not dare to meet his eyes nor speak what was on his mind. Every passing second Wyatt was silent the more pissed demigod Norley got.
Demigod Norley was also puzzled by the sudden change in Wyatt's attitude, just a few seconds ago Wyatt had rudely addressed him without any honorifics despite knowing his identity but ever since he asked him about his plans for Jill he just sat there, awfully quiet, not even daring to lock his eyes with his. Demigod Norely wondered if he was the same boy as before, the one that dared to criticize and order around a dozen demigods.
"Your Highness, you know about Jill's physique," Wyatt spoke up seeing Demigod Norley beg him to speak up.
"What about her physique?" Demigod Norley asked raising his left eyebrow when suddenly a thought he had not considered before crossed his mind. Thinking of it Demigod Norley's face turned pale, he blamed himself for failing to consider something so obvious. He instantly got up from his chair exclaiming, "How dare you impregnate my baby girl? This explains everything. No wonder she kept crying regardless of how much I consoled her. You freaking piece of shit, how dare to try to abandon my daughter and grandchild?"
As the one who created Jill and her physique, Demigod Norley was fully aware of what it was capable of. Considering how protective he was about his daughter he was also aware that Jill had once used Wyatt. Jill was nearly 80 years old, Demigod Norley was beginning to worry that it would never happen for her and she was destined to remain alone for her entire life just like him.
So when Demigod Norley learned about what happened between Jill and Wyatt, he was happy for his daughter as she would no longer miss out on what life had to offer, the warmth of a significant other. In that happiness, he forgot one small detail the nature of her physique i.e if it were to ever be activated it would not stop until it achieved its purpose to give birth to a perfect child as strong and talented as its parents.
Back then Demigod Norley did check Jill's body with his divine sense for any sort of change but he noticed nothing. However he should have known better that Jill's physique was not the type to give up, it would take extreme measures to achieve its purpose.
Demigod Norley wondered how could he have overlooked such a minute detail. No wonder his daughter was beyond consolable when she heard Ann imply that her relationship with Wyatt was better than Jill's relationship with him since Wyatt called her to inform her of his well-being and not Jill. How could Jill not be hurt learning that she did not matter to her unborn child's father as much as some random girl did?
The more Demigod Norley thought about it the more he was sorry for his daughter for having to go through something like this and blamed himself for failing to recognize the pain she was in. He did not pause for a second and double-check the facts instead he continued to consider his misunderstanding to be the truth. For someone who claimed to be smart, he was pretty much a bird-brained idiot when it came to his daughter. Regardless he gave in to his rage and hatred toward Wyatt.
Little Beam reacted to Demigod Norley's sudden outburst by coming in between Wyatt and Demigod Norley and growing 15 feet long, shielding Wyatt with her body.
As for Wyatt, he immediately retreated in a hurry as he was expecting such a reaction from Demigod Norley but not exactly this one. Dumbfounded he yelled explaining his side while demanding Demigod Norley for more context, "What do you mean by pregnant? I made sure to shoot blanks but it made her physique aggressive so I pulled out while risking my life. Jill can be pregnant with your grandchild but it cannot be mine. Besides, last time I saw her she showed no signs of pregnancy."
"Are you questioning my daughter's innocence? You think she is someone with loose morals like the party girl you like to hang out with, you scum of the earth. I do not know what she sees in you but let me tell you, you are not worthy of her," Demigod Norley walked past little Beam without even her noticing and made his way toward Wyatt who was backed up against the wall with no place to retreat. It seemed as if Wyatt's words had touched his bottom line.
Seeing enraged Demigod Norley slowly make his way toward him, Wyatt wondered what was taking Field Marshal Heatsend so long. Considering she was hiding in the city air space she should have been here by now. Thinking that the Southern Royal family has always failed him in times like these Wyatt decided to take the matters in his hand.
"Boy, I repeat myself one more time what are your plans for my daughter and your child," Demigod Norley did not rush to kill Wyatt for his audacity to deny his crimes but remained patient.
"If Jill is really pregnant with my child, I will take full responsibility," Wyatt was not afraid of Demigod Norley killing him but Demigod Norley's rage not being satisfied with just killing him. Instead, spreading it to everything Wyatt held dear. With the numerous pseudo-calamity soul gems he had hidden across the southern region, Wyatt was not worried about escaping Demigod Norley's Wrath but worried that his friends and family would be implicated because of this.
Therefore, in this situation, Wyatt faking his death would not be enough. He would have to resolve whatever misunderstanding Demigod Norley had. Seeing how he was not listening to a thing he said, Wyatt had no choice but to call on someone whom he would listen to and that person was none other than Jill Norley, demigod Norley's Daughter herself.
'You forced me,' Wyatt thought as sent his coordinates to Jill asking her to come to rescue him immediately using her teleportation card. Considering the gravity of the situation he believed only Jill could save him out of this situation. Not to mention he had no qualms about hiding behind a woman.
Demigod Norley was clearly not satisfied with Wyatt's answer, his rage-filled eyes were a clear indication of that. Shaking his head he said, "Wyatt, let me repeat myself what are your plans for my daughter and your child."
"..." Wyatt understood that Demigod Norley would not stop until he agreed to take responsibility for Jill. Though it was not planned Wyatt had no problem with responsibility for his child in Jill. But he was sure Jill couldn't be pregnant with his child. He wasn't even sure if Jill was pregnant considering the high standard her physique had set for her mates. Even if Jill were to forcefully try to impregnate herself with a handful of sperms, her physique would not allow her to do so. It would kill all sperms it deemed unworthy of Jill's eggs.
"Boy, answer me before I lose my patience," Demigod Norley thundered as he paced his way toward cornered Wyatt. Despite all the rage and shouting Demigod Norley seemed to be in no hurry to reach Wyatt. Demigod Norley did not want to kill the father of his grandchild. As someone who had lived for thousands of years, he had a good grasp on his rage and did not lose sight of the point.
Little Beam repeatedly tried coming between Demigod Norley and Wyatt, to shield Wyatt with her body but to her astonishment demigod Norley would easily get past her, causing her to be dumbfoundedly and start to question reality. Soon her competitive spirit was kindled seeing Demigod Norley time and again pass her without even her knowing and was assumed by Demigod Norley's trick.
Wyatt looked at little Beam in bafflement as he saw her playing with Demigod Norley while Demigod Norley was screaming for his head. Dumbfounded by the situation Wyatt chose to ignore the two and wait for Jill while praying that she would hurry over as fast as possible before things turned for worse.
Wyatt did not have to wait long, Jill answered his prayers with a text, and three seconds later he felt a disturbance in the space as if someone was teleporting to this location.
"Dad, what are you doing here?" Jill was astonished to find her father in Sky Blossom City that too with Wyatt.
