Listening to Colleen reminisce about Luna, Wyatt lifted his eyebrows and asked, "Do you really believe Luna is at fault here?"

"Sometimes children make mistakes, as their elders it is our job to correct them not punish them," Colleen replied. With her current response and previous statement, it was clear that she did not blame Luna but Freedom Fighters for misleading her.

"Luna is not a child, she is a grown-a.s.s woman. If she were a mortal, she would have grandchildren by now. So I think she can make her own decisions and he should held responsible for them," Wyatt argued, feeling that he needed to make it clear to Colleen about his stance on Luna's betrayal.

"Wyatt, regardless of her age Luna is my family's child who grew up in my arms. The Freedom Fighters will pay for corrupting her," Colleen made her stance clearer to Wyatt putting aside the bottles of Blood Rule Pill.

"Luna betrayed the southern region and most of all you and your husband, Are you sure you want to overlook that?" Wyatt said as he did not Colleen getting in his way when he gave Luna the cost of her betrayal.

"You won't understand, if not for the Freedom Fighter Luna would not have done anything to betray her family," Colleen continued to defend Luna claiming Freedom Fighters were at fault for misleading her grandniece.

"Really, you are choosing Luna over people of the southern region? As the Soldier Queen don't you find it a bit shameful," Wyatt thought Colleen's choice to forgive Luna was similar to betraying the citizens of the Southern region she was meant to serve.

"As a Soldier, I only know to protect my homeland I do not judge them. The same thing applies to my family. Wyatt, I am clear about my duties. You need not remind me of it," Colleen said coldly indicating that she no longer wanted to talk about Luna and her accountability.

Wyatt shook his head feeling that Colleen was a Soldier down to her bones. Adding Queen to her t.i.tle will not make her fit to rule a Southern Region as a Queen. On Earth, Wyatt had a seen similar situation.

A billionaire's wife was made the chairman of his company after his death. In half a decade the company was driven to bankruptcy under her reign.

Similarly, the former First Lady was elected as the Madam President at the end of her husband's term. Her term soon began to be known as the worst term possible. Under her leaders.h.i.+p, the country was introduced to the greatest economic crises the country has seen in its 300 years of democracy. It took the country decades to recover from the damage of those four years.

The lesson to learn from this was that just because someone is the spouse of the neurosurgeon it doesn't mean that they too were capable of performing complicated brain surgery.

Wyatt saw the same thing happening with the Southern region. Just because the current ruler of the southern region was a great ruler, his wife Colleen didn't become a great ruler. Unlike Colleen, her husband was trained to govern since his childhood, just like their children and grandchildren. Colleen who came from a common background and had trained as a model soldier for a good chunk of her life would make a great soldier even a general but not a queen.

The Southern Royal Court was well aware of this so they were happy that Colleen did not intervene while Lorenzo and her daughter held down the forte. Still, she held too much authority for someone who was clearly not qualified to hold it.

"Well, just so you know I can respect the Freedom Fighters for outsmarting me but I will not forgive Luna's betrayal," If Colleen had asked for leniency for Luna he might have thought about it but her totally rejecting any accountability for Luna's part for her betrayal only p.i.s.sed Wyatt off.

"I see you no longer plan to take revenge on the Freedom Fighters," Colleen coldly glanced at Wyatt reading between the lines.

"I do but not the way that will satisfy your anger toward them," Wyatt was always clear about his grievances and gratefulness he did not need someone to remind him that.

"So they got to you too, huh?" Colleen said adding, "You do what feels the best for you. I can settle my own accounts."

Listening to Wyatt, Colleen's suspicion that there was more to Wyatt's visit to the freedom fighter's headquarters began to grow stronger. So much so that she had strong doubts that the Freedom Fighter might have corrupted Wyatt just as they did with Luna. However, knowing that soon her daughter would be visiting Wyatt, she believed her daughter would handle him.

"..." Seeing Colleen not bring up his promise to her, Wyatt could not help but raise his eyebrow in puzzlement wondering why someone as hotheaded as Colleen was so calm today.

"These pills are good. He does not have side effects. Even if a mortal or card apprentice with an ego gem were to take them they would not suffer as the blood rule power in the pill will dissipate in the surroundings instead of acc.u.mulating in their body and causing their death. The control over the blood rule to create this pill should only be possible by the Blood Supreme. No wonder you had you people move the base of your operation to this barren lands on the edge of the city," Colleen said picking up a blood rule pill bottle she had kept aside earlier.

Wyatt responded to Colleen with a nod, not planning to discuss further about who and how the blood rule pills were made.

"These pills are way better than the ones available in the market still we cannot afford to pay you a huge price. How much do you plan on selling them for?" Colleen was very impressed by the blood rule created by Bloodette. The purity of blood rule power refined by Bloodette was astounding. The higher the purity the easier for the consumer to use the energy of the pill.

"How about you have your people discuss it with the TSR adventure guild? I am sure they will work this out fairly," Wyatt could use his relations.h.i.+p with the Southern royal family to exchange Blood Rule Pill for better resources but he did not plan on doing it this time. It was normal circ.u.mstances Wyatt would not mind using their relations.h.i.+p for a more profitable price but currently, he wanted to conduct business with the Souther Royal family as equal. So, he decided to let the sales be done through proper channels.

Wyatt's actions might seem a little ungrateful after all without the Southern Royal family covering for him would not have lived to live this day. But if not for the benefits he could provide them the Southern Royal family would not have bothered to go to such lengths for an orphan from a third-rate city.

The relations.h.i.+p between the Wyatt and Southern Royal family was more of a business that only lasted till they were beneficial to each other. However, that was only at the beginning as over time their relations.h.i.+p morphed into something like a friends.h.i.+p. They did not agree with each other on many things at the end of the day they were cut from the same cloth, THE SOUTHERN REGION.

"Good, I will do that," Colleen said before she popped a high-level blood rule pill and entered the 'one with the world' state to continue comprehending the Blood Rule. To avoid any further discussion with Wyatt because she felt the direction the conversation was headed they would no longer argue verbally but physically.

Seeing Colleen start to comprehend her blood rule, Wyatt looked at her intently because Colleen's actions were totally contrary to his thoughts. It's as if she was a changed person today. It was the Colleen he knew would have flipped the movement he said he had other plans for the Freedom Fighters but this Colleen did not rather she responded calmly. Prompting Wyatt to wonder if the Southern royal family was up to something.

"f.u.c.k this," Wyatt cussed as he summoned his grimoire planning to access the VR-universe as its administrator before that he took one last look at the unconscious Bloodette who did not seem to be about to wake up anytime soon.

Accessing the VR universe as its administrator, Wyatt accessed the information network to gather all the information collected on the Southern Royal family. To figure out if they were up to something that he should know about.

Going through the information network Wyatt found something shocking. The Southern Royal family was building another silver milk power manufacturing plant but this time it was not being built in a secure area but in the industrial area of the southern capital.

Wyatt wondered why the southern royal family would do that even though they did not have a stable source of Silver Milk to manufacture silver milk powder and above all why they did not inform him about this.
