"Aurelia, I will leave this to you," Jaya said stepping back to hiding behind Aurelia seeing that Cervos possessed a Nine-winged devil dragon corpse, Adriene radiated with a threatening golden energy, and JJ summoned an actual Nine-Winged devil dragon. *Gulp* Aurelia gulped her saliva looking at two SSS-rank Nine-winged devil dragons. She was scared but she did not take a step back. Instead, grabbed Corey's wrist and pulled her behind her saying, "Get behind me." Corey lifted her eyebrows listening to Aurelia, from the looks of it she did not seem to be kidding. She commended Aurelia's bravery but shaking her head she asked, "You sure, you got this?" Aurelia vigorously shook her head denying, "I am not but I am sure our boss is watching and he will not let us die here." "Wyatt is here?" Jaya exclaimed. Then, fixing her hair in place she heroically walked in front of Aurelia and said, "Don't worry girls I got this."
'Are you three stupid?' A feminine voice sounded in Jaya, Aurelia, and Corey's mind, it was Adriene. Borrowing power from her inner goddess, Adriene no longer felt the ominous pressure from Corey. So, she proceeded to advise them, 'Run for your lives while everyone else is busy running to safety. I will hold Cervos back.' "Hey, how dare you call us stupid?" Aurelia yelled, staring hard at Adriene who stood between them and Cervos's Nine-winged devil dragon corpse. Jaya hurriedly hugged Aurelia by her waist seeing that she was about to rush at Adriene. Corey stood behind them indifferently, with little Beam by her side she was not worried about the clowns from the Southern Capital. Meanwhile, feeling the change in the aura of Cervos and Adriene, little Beam completely hid its presence like a predator ready to pounce on its prey at a moment's notice. Hence, be it Cervos or Adriene, they could no longer feel the dreading intimidating pressure from Corey. Adriene was taken aback by Aurelia's response but before she could get a word in, the dragon corpse spoke, "Adriene, step aside or prepare to die with them." "You talk big for a loser," JJ said as his summoned dragon flew him closer to them. Caught between JJ and Adriene, Cervos let out a heart-wrenching roar adding, "I am willing to die to avenge Gloria. Are you guys willing to die to protect those three?" With Cervos's declaration JJ and Adriene's brows frowned because they were not sure if they were prepared to have a decisive life and death with Crevos. After all, as the user of 'Corpse Possession' Cervos had the upper hand in a death match. A corpse did not feel pain or fear but it was different for them if Cervos were to come at them with the intent to exchange damage for damage even if they won they would have suffered fatal injuries. This was why JJ and Adriene both hesitated when Crevos threatened them with a death match. However, in their moment of hesitation, they heard a loud indifferent and uninterested voice chanting, "Celestial Blood Fate Domain" Following the chant the entire edge of the void within their field of vision was dyed in red monochrome, locking everyone present in a red world. Seeing the world around them turn red, the crowd that was rushing to safety paused and a look of despair washed their faces. Coming from the Southern Capital, the capital of the southern region and home to the Heatsend Royal family, they all were aware that they were trapped in a domain and considering the size of the domain it must be invoked by a Card Demigod. Being trapped in a domain meant that no place in the domain was safe for any of them. With no escape, the crowd turned to find the source of the domain. JJ with his summoned dragon, Crevos with his corpse dragon, and Adriene with her borrowed power all tried to break the domain but it would not budge no matter how much strength they exerted on it, let alone collapse. Ultimately, giving up on trying to break free from it they tried to find the source of the domain like the rest acknowledging that they were in the presence of a stronger enemy.
"Boss has finally decided to show himself," Aurelia said feeling a familiarity with the domain and then added, "I knew he would not let me die so easily." "Wyatt's here," Jaya said in anticipation while Corey scoffed, "Humph, show off." All eyes moved their gaze following the energy signature of the domain. The place where the energy signature of the domain was stronger was most likely where the source of the domain was unless the owner of the domain took precautions against it. Soon, they found that the energy signature of the domain was the strongest where Aurelia and her Southern Watch team stood. These guys had not moved an inch from their original position when Cervos, Adriene, and JJ went all out. It was as if they felt no fear. Beside the team of Southern watch, the masses saw a red humanoid being. It stepped forward basking in the curious gaze of the onlookers unfaired and uninterested. The crowd felt the red humanoid being was familiar however they could not remember where they had seen that face. Until a few with strong memory in the crowd pointed out, "It is him. It's Dalton Wyatt, the hope of the South." "It is him, I got confused because of his red skin color." "What is he doing up here?" "Don't tell me it is his domain that we are trapped in." "No way, that is impossible." Ignoring the exclamation and whispers of the onlookers, Wyatt slowly walked towards the trio from the Southern Capital, Adriene, JJ, and Cervos. Seeing his slow stride, the trio locked their gaze on him to hear him say, "I heard you guys are searching for me. I am here, now what?" "You are Dalton Wyatt?" JJ was the first to speak finding it hard to believe the red humanoid was the Southern Hope who had multiple floating heads and hands. The other two listened closely to hear the red humanoid's response. "Yes, the one and only," Aurelia proudly answered aloud confirming the crowds's guess.
"Little girl, I wasn't asking you—" "Submit!" Wyatt uttered interrupting JJ who scolded Aurelia for answering when not asked. With Wyatt's words JJ, Adriene, and the crowd trapped in his domain all felt an unknown turmoil in their blood forcing them all to kneel. Some tried to resist the urge to kneel but they all felt this unbearable pain in their blood veins causing them all to double down in pain. Soon except for Aurelia, Corey, Jaya, Aria, and her team everyone was kneeling even JJ, his dragon, Adriene, and Cervos's corpse dragon found themselves forced to kneel. Many did not understand what was happening and some could not believe that Wyatt's domain had such power. "What dark arts is this?" JJ yelled looking at Wyatt. But not receiving an answer, he activated the card he had specially prepared to fight with Wyatt, "A-rank Summon Synchronization." Soon, JJ who stood atop the head of the Nine-winged devil dragon sunk into its head and merged with the Nine-winged devil dragon. Merging with JJ the Nine-winged devil dragons form from a big thorny lizard with three pairs of wings to a Dragonoid with a streamlined body and nine razor-sharp wings. Meanwhile, Adriene made use of her inner goddess to free herself from the effect of the domain and was the first to stand back on her feet among the trio. As for Cervos, he too activated his last resort, mentally chanting, "Deadman's Coffin" Cervo's Physical body which was inside a compartment within the Nine-winged devil dragon corpse moved into a rotting coffin temporarily morphing his hydrating body into a corpse. Then, the rotting coffin was moved by Cervos's spiritual body possessing the dragon corpse into his sub-space. Inside Cervos's origin card My Space, the rotting coffin was placed at the center of an array formation that was connected to a series of modified artificial energy cores that would allow Crevos to use his dragon corpse to its full potential without having to worry about him running out of the energy to see it through.
Soon one by one all three of them, Adriene, JJ, and Cervos broke free of Wyatt's domain's restrain and glared at Wyatt but none dared to rush at him because he was able to make them kneel with words so alone they were clearly not Wyatt's match head on so they decided to make use of their brains instead of directly rushing at him in his domain without a plan. Wyatt had proven himself as the real deal to them not it was their turn to prove themselves to Wyatt and then to the South by defeating him. "JJ, stop struggling and beg for mercy maybe he will forgive you out of consideration for Her Highness Southern Emperor," Aria suddenly said aloud. Her actions were ambiguous, it wasn't clear if she trying to persuade her cousin or provoke him.
