Weeks of work were completed in a mere hour, thanks to the Hive AI and the three slave consciousnesses. Not only was I able to arrange the 78 array soul pathways in a single core but also in such a way that they don't hinder each other's function, but they sometimes enabled and complemented each other's function while showcasing maximum efficiency.

The first prototype versatile array formation core was ready. Still, I needed to add a few extra layers of security to it, like the Honeypot method used by the cyber security back home.

A honeypot is a cybersecurity mechanism that uses a manufactured attack target to lure cybercriminals away from legitimate targets. Once the attacker takes the bait, we can gather intelligence about their identity, methods, and reasons for the attack.

Similar to honeypot in cybersecurity, I would create a few decoy flaws and vulnerabilities as bait in the versatile array formation core. So when somebody tries to attack the main array that I have set up using the versatile array formation core will fall prey to these decoy flaws instead of attacking the actual vulnerabilities in the array. Buying me enough time to ensure the security of the array by any means possible.

Finally, I held the first working prototype of a versatile array formation core with 78 basic, interminate and advanced arrays to choose from. With this single array core, I could set up any of 78 basic arrays at my whim in a few minutes. But the same could not be achieved by other Array masters using the versatile array formation core. They may be able to arrange the arrays, but it will take them a lot more than a few minutes because they lack the soul pupils that allowed me to set up the array accordingly based on the reaction of the soul pathways.

Even though I held the versatile array core, I couldn't just arrange an array or switch from one array to another. I need to do the calculations for setting up the array's taking the surrounding soul pathways into account. The calculations need to be accurate to set up the arrays for which I should have mastery over the array or hybrid array I am about to set up.

Anybody who wants to use the versatile array core should also be well versed in the 78 arrays and their hybrid arrays to make full use of it. All this cannot be achieved in mere minutes, but I could due to the support of my three slave consciousness, Hive AI, and Soul pupils. Honestly, other array masters stand a better chance to set up an array using a standard array core because then they would not have to watch out for triggering different array soul pathways while arranging another array, like in the case of the versatile array formation core.

These constraints are the reason even though I had a successful product, I could not market it because it was not perfect to be used by regular array masters. I need to perfect it and increase its convenience factor. Maybe I could try removing some of the lesser-used array pathways or something more profound. But for now, I had a versatile array core through which I could arrange any of the 78 arrays and their resulting hybrid array formations.

Successfully creating the prototype of the Versatile array formation core, I walked out of the card lab. Only to be greeted by Rami Kaga. There would be only two reasons why he was here. Either he achieved the task I gave him, or he learned about me helping his grandson create his origin card without his knowledge.

After experiencing the might of a city array during the fight with the demon worshipers, I realized that I was being too complacent about my plans to attack the branch of the Circle in the Sun blossom city. I hadn't taken the Sun blossom city array and the array formation covering the headquarters of the circle into consideration in my plans. If I had continued with the attack despite knowing this, I would face an utter defeat by the arrays even before we got to the enemy.

This is one of the main reasons why I started learning array formation in the first place. I needed to have ways to decipher the array formation before my forces descended to wipe out the branch of the circle in Sun Blossom city.

At first, my interest in array formation was limited to deciphering the array covering the circle headquarters and escaping the sanctions of the Sun Blossom city array. But as I explored the array formation, I was roped into it because of its majesty but primarily because of my ultimate cheat soul pupils that made me a prodigy in the field of array formation.

Thanks to Lorenzo's notes, I could be considered an advanced array master. I think this should be enough to face the array protecting the circle's headquarters in the Sun Blossom city. That is, if Rami has completed his task of finding out the array formation being used by the Sun blossom city and the Circle headquarters. But he could also be here about this grandson's issue.

"Master Wyatt," Rami greeted me respectfully as soon as he saw me.

"Hm," I nodded, acknowledging his greeting.

"Master Wyatt, first, I need to thank you for helping my grandson create his desired origin card." I didn't expect Rami to thank me for creating his grandson's origin card without his knowledge.

"So Kane has already shown you his origin card?" I asked Rami what I actually meant was if he had seen Ivy's appearance and how it resembles Kane's bully's mom.

"I have. It is an extraordinary origin card with peculiar abilities. I could not have wished for more. And it helped me realize how much Kane has been through. I saw a rare maturity in him, which wasn't there before. I am happy that he has grown into a fine young man who could look after the family interest." Kane seemed to have explained to his grandfather the events that led to his decision to have me create his origin card and the appearance of his summons.
