Card Apprentice Daily Log

”Little girl, I’m constrained by my surroundings and this form. Otherwise, I would have dealt with the attack myself instead of begging you for help,” Peyote snapped, enraged that the Card Apprentices were debating his strength instead of helping him.

”Little girl? If I were you, I’d be more polite to her.” Corey appeared beside Anna and the Field Marshal, riding atop Lil’ Baem’s head, and reminded Peyote. In this world, apart from his master, only she might lend him a hand, others would be just as happy to see him die. ”She’s one of Wyatt’s three fiancées. That makes her your mistress.”

Hearing this, the Cloud Turtle stared at Anna in genuine shock. Meanwhile, Anna shot Corey a sharp look, clearly displeased that she dared to show up after what had happened earlier. Then she turned back to Peyote, who now looked visibly panicked, and said, ”Relax, grandauntie, please.”

At Anna’s request, the Field Marshal dashed into the sky, heading straight for the source of the plasma beam. Meanwhile, Anna turned to Corey and asked, ”Aren’t you bold?”

”I have to be. I’m Wyatt’s Enforcer.”

”Some enforcer... running off with your tail between your legs.”

Corey stared at Anna in rage but didn’t dare start anything, knowing that neither she nor Lil’ Baem was a match for her.

Anna then turned her gaze to Peyote, who had reverted to his original form after the plasma beam ceased, and remarked, ”My, you’re an ugly one.”

Peyote responded with a polite bow, mimicking the humans he had watched in the city. Meanwhile, Corey snapped, ”Hey, maybe you’re the ugly one to him.”
