The Field Marshal looked at Wyatt and the girls with a complicated expression struggling to speak of her crime so sinful that she dared not speak of it to others but her current circumstances demanded her to speak of it. She was already reluctant, Wyatt's screaming and the girls' confused look did not help.
Confused Cortney and Bloodette's concerned gazes jumped from Wyatt to Field Marshal Heatsend and back. They were not only worried about Wyatt but the Field Marshal too as they could feel the latter felt very guilty about whatever she did to Wyatt.
However, having lived in this cruel world for a young age they understood feeling guilty would not undo the wrong that was done. Nonetheless, they did not judge either of their friends. They were not here to pick sides, they just wanted to be there for their friends who were hurting in their own way. Hopefully, at the end of the day, they all would be together and not let whatever this was become a wedge between them.
"What are you waiting for? Say it!" enraged Wyatt cried aloud at the Field Marshal, not letting her hide from the ugly thing she did.
"Wyatt, calm down. Whatever she did wrong... let us figure out a solution to it together like we always do, Cortney spoke up, trying to console her friend who was in pain.
Anger Wyatt swiftly turned and glared at Cortney but when his eyes met with her warm eyes filled with nothing but concern for him, he calmed down and instead of lashing out he accepted his defeat, "You don't understand, Cortney, it is over. There is nothing we can do now."
Not knowing what had actually forced Wyatt to his current mental state, Cortney was at a loss for words trying to think of ways to console and encourage him. She turned to look at the Field Marshal for help but she found the latter too was not in the right state of mind. Having no idea as to what had transpired, Cortney did not know how and where to start helping her friends with their problems and struggles.As for Bloodette, she was confident that whatever the Field Marshal broke of Wyatt's Cortney could fix it or replace it. She was waiting for Cortney to work her magic and make her friends get along again. She had no doubt in her best friend's ability.
"She trusted you with her life. How could you do this to her?" Wyatt locked eyes with the Field Marshal and asked her why she did what she did.
The Field Marshal forced herself to look into Wyatt's bloodshot eyes and mumbled, "Back then there were strong reasons that forced my hand to take action- Arh! I don't know anymore what's true and what isn't. I did it, I have wronged you and Anna. That is the cold hard truth. I am ready to face any punishment to make for it!
"Make up for it, are you kidding me? What you have done cannot be undone, similarly, there is no making up for it. Just like me, you will have to live the rest of your life knowing what you've done," Wyatt did not allow the Field Marshal to ease her guilty conscience. He planned to make sure that even time would not be able to unburden her guilt. But before that, he needed to clarify, "Field Marshal, did you betray me?"
From the little information that the Field Marshal had revealed Wyatt pieced together what she had
done to Anna behind his back but he felt the timing did not add up. The last time he saw Anna was five days ago in the Field Marshal's mystic dimension. She used him to motivate her and get her to focus on her isolated training.
At least that was what appeared on the surface when actually the Field Marshal used him without his knowledge to flame Anna's obsession for him to the extreme. He clearly remembers that morning because that was when she gave him two teleportation cards, the 'Royal teleportation' and 'Run away kid' cards. He thought they were getting closer but she used the cards to get his guard down and use him to push Anna on a path of no return.
Be that as it may, Wyatt remembered it clear as day that back then Anna's realm was far from preparing to forge her divinity let alone breaking through to the Card Demigod realm. He found it. hard to believe that Anna was able to complete forging her divinity and break through to the Demigod realm in the last five days.
Thanks to his soul pupils Wyatt knew Anna's talent better than anyone. She was good but not that good. Not to forget among those five days the Field Marshal has sworn her loyalty to him on the third day. That was to say Anna started breaking through to the Card Demigod realm three days ago. This means that the Field Marshal's plans for Anna should have been completed three days ago or she betrayed Wyatt and continued with her plans for Anna despite pledging her loyalty to him. It was just following orders if the Field Marshal had done the crime when she was working for Anna's mother but it was betrayal if she did the same after she had joined Wyatt.
Depending upon which one it was Wyatt planned to decide how to deal with Field Marshal Heatsend. For the sake of his sanity, he really hoped the Field Marshal did not betray him. If she did, she better pray his new abilities that came with his breakthrough to the card grandmaster realm did not enable him to overpower her. Otherwise, come next sunrise the Southern region might have to mourn the death of their hero instead of celebrating Anna's breakthrough to the card demigod realm.
