"What the fuck is that?" Ransom exclaimed looking at the large flame tornado moving around the mystic dimension swallowing and burning the trapped undead into ash. He felt that even he would face a similar end as the undead if he were to be sucked into the flame tornado. His intent sense could tell that the flame tornado was enhanced by celestial force and the celestial rule domain, making it deadly even for him.
He could not believe that the boy in the card master realm could fathom such power, now he was starting to regret kicking up trouble with Wyatt on purpose over his attitude toward Luna and him. If he knew that the boy had this kind of power, he would have been more careful with what he said and did.
However, now he understood why his mother left his cousin's side and moved to the boy's side at the risk of making his cousin their family's worst nightmare. The boy was far stronger than what he was told. When he was being briefed about the boy's strength he did not believe it, but trusting the information collected by the Southern Watch he decided to see it for himself.
When he and his team first met the boy, he showcased the demigod's level of energy signatures but it was not as exaggerated as Ransom was told during the briefing. Though the boy had fathomed the strength of a demigod it was barely at the entry level. But his strength was not at the level to defeat a devil that could easily wipe out three elite demigod teams as he was told in the briefing.
Feeling that his aunt might have exaggerated the boy's strength to everyone out of excitement, Ransom could not help but look down at the boy. After all, not a real demigod to begin with his power was temporary and without any SS and SSS rank cards, the boy was even weaker than an enter-level demigod.
At that level, the boy would be lucky if he could defeat a semi-demigod as, unlike the boy they had access to SS and SSS rank cards. Not to mention with his present strength Ransom could easily take on a dozen or so entry-level demigods. So why would he bother about someone who could temporarily enter the threshold of the demigod realm? Especially since the other party was rude to him when he tried to be friendly to him.
Even though Ransom did not have the title of prince, he was a prince in all sense. He had the royal unparallel bloodline so he grew up like one and was treated like one everywhere he went. Even in the Central Capital. After all, even without the royal bloodline, he was the youngest son of someone who was in the Card world's top ten strongest list. The queue of people who wanted to get on his good side was endless. For someone who grew up in such an environment to be humble and amiable, it was because of the Field Marshal's unconventional parenting,
However, this did not mean he wasn't arrogant and unreasonable, due to his upbringing he only showed to those who were at odds with him. Like for example Wyatt, he was rude to him and ignored him the whole time he tried to talk to him, just because he brought up his beloved daughter.
Since Wyatt had shown that they could not be friends, Ransom did not feel the need to be polite toward him when actually in his heart he was curious about Wyatt. After all, he managed to gain the approval of his mother who was unpleasable. Hence, he made trouble for Wyatt trying to gain attention of Wyatt. It was childish but one had to know Ransom in his whole life never had to try to please others.
Even when it came to his wife, Ransom did not have to try to get on her good side. Since it was a political marriage, his wife was the active one in their relationship trying to win his favor. Now that he was emotionally dependent on her, his wife had grown demanding, this was different.
Hence, Ransom who only knew how to get into trouble to get his parent's attention used the same trick with a little variation to gain Wyatt's attention without even worrying that such actions would only annoy Wyatt.
One could say that Ransom's EQ was emotionally stunted. This was why Aurelia's mother was able to frequently take advantage of his feelings for her constantly. Ransom's condition was so bad that he did not even know he was being taken advantage of
However, now that he had seen what Wyatt was capable of, Ransom was starting to fear the consequences of his actions. At first, he did not care because Wyatt was weaker than him. So, he felt he could do anything he wanted but now that he knew he was weaker than Wyatt, he feared Wyatt could do anything with him.
The worst thing was his strongest support and backer, his mother, was also Wyatt's support and backer. Therefore, he knew unlike Henricks who did not dare to harm him badly because of his mother, Wyatt would not worry about such things if planned to get even with him.
"That kid really has too many tricks up his sleeves, Henricks commented to Ransom's exclamation. Just like Ransom, Henricks too was in awe of the large tornado that was swiping the mystic dimension clean of undead demigods. What amazed him, even more, was the fact that Wyatt was just a card master, yet he was facing seven hundred dimwitted undead demigods like mowing a lawn. He pondered if something like this was even possible even though he was witnessing it happen with his own two eyes. The feat Wyatt had achieved was just too unbelievable. It shattered Henricks's outlook on the world.
