Wyatt raised an eyebrow as he listened to Clown Mask explain that her "Eye of Fortune" could track the "Eye of Prosperity." He wondered if the reverse was also true. As if reading his thoughts, Clown Mask responded, "Master, though I can't prove it, I don't think the 'Eye of Prosperity' can track the 'Eye of Fortune'-or, rather, it's more accurate to say the 'Eye of Prosperity' doesn't want to track it's other half. I have a feeling that the Tao Eye desires and taking action to return to its rightful heir, which is me."

"You may be onto something, but one thing keeps bothering me: why now? In your 'Future Vision, you didn't have this feeling, nor did you feel this way until now. Why would the Tao Eye want you to fight for it now when it showed no previous signs of such intent?" Wyatt was puzzled. He hadn't antic.i.p.ated that helping Clown Mask regrow her Tao Eye would become so complicated.

"Master, maybe it isn't me, but you. I think the Tao Eye wants you to fight for it, and I am merely the medium conveying its intentions. Just like you plan to control the Tao Eye through me, it may also be seeking your help through me. After all, in both my future vision and present self, I never was and never will be a match for Karl, let alone kill him and reclaim the Tao Eye," Clown Mask explained, drawing on insights she felt from her physique to guide Wyatt toward the answer.

"Hmm?" Wyatt looked at Clown Mask's third eye skeptically and said, "Use your third eye and tell me if I can truly help you regrow your Tao Eye. Let me kick-start it: 'Clown Mask, I promise to help you regrow your Tao Eye!"

Clown Mask stared hard at Wyatt until he lost patience and asked, "Did it work? What did you see?"

"No, it didn't activate. No matter how hard I try, I can't use it on you. Its not just that as a daughter gem I am unable to doubt your promise but it's as if the laws of our time don't apply to you," Clown Mask said with a frown, frustrated at her inability to a.s.sist her master.

"Oh!" Wyatt wasn't surprised; he had long known that the time of this universe didn't affect him. He seemed to be an exception to them. Both Chris Chase and Belphegor's time-freeze abilities had failed to affect him, making him aware that he was immune not just to Card World's time rule but to that of the entire Myriad Realms. However, this confirmed that Clown Mask's Eye of Fortune was indeed a time-based ability, not simply divination or fortune-telling.

"Is it only me, or are there others immune to your 'Eye of Fortune' as well?" Wyatt. asked, curious if her physique had more limitations.

"Well, the 'Eye of Fortune' only works within the scope of Card World. It's useless in the Myriad Realms," Clown Mask revealed, finally helping Wyatt understand why the Supreme Leader had lost to Aba and hadn't extended his conquest into the Myriad Realms.

In Clown Mask's alternate future vision, the Supreme Leader, given his ambition and the combined abilities of the 'Eye of Prosperity' and 'Soul Pupils, would naturally have set his sights on the Myriad Realms. Yet, he never dared to expand into the Emissary of Light or Matron's territories, let alone the Myriad Realms. Until now, Wyatt had thought Karl was cautious because he feared an alliance between Sansa and the Emissary of Light, but it seemed Karl had reached his peak and was now focused more on preserving his gains than acquiring new territories.

Though Karl's origin card ability allowed him to create and use an infinite number of origin cards by sacrificing his incarnations, it appeared to have significant limitations that he had never shared with anyone. Wyatt's knowledge of Karl's abilities was entirely based on what Clown Mask had gathered from her future vision, so he, too, was in the dark about the precise limitations of Karl's origin card. However, he now understood that while Karl's ability was powerful, it wasn't without boundaries.

Even though Wyatt didn't know the exact limitations, just knowing that Karl had them gave him greater confidence. With his current strength, Wyatt believed that Karl was no match for him, even if he commanded an army of incarnations and undead card apprentices. All that remained was to locate the original Karl and put an end to this looming threat.

Strangely, all three of the mischiefs had managed to avoid detection by Wyatt's VR-slime card information network. This made Wyatt wonder if he had overestimated the appeal of the 'Soul Energy Digestion' skill among Card Apprentices. However, knowing that one of the Founding DemiG.o.ds, Norley, was using it offered some consolation. Lately, even Norley had not made an appearance in the VR-universe, which left Wyatt wondering why. Maybe the latter was to busy to waste time playing within the VR-Universe he thought.

"So, if the dark races were to enter this realm, could you use your ability on them or not?" Wyatt asked, considering if Clown Mask's physique could be useful in the Myriad Realms.

"Yes, I can. But I cannot use my ability on Card Apprentices who leave Card World unless they return," Clown Mask clarified, emphasizing the limits of her power. "So, your physique can only be used within the Card World's celestial field. That is better than nothing. I suppose." Wyatt said. deciding that perhaps he should conduct. better than nothing, I suppose," Wyatt said, deciding that perhaps he should conduct most, if not all, of his future dealings within Card World. This way, he could rely on Clown Mask's 'Eye of Fortune' to help identify trustworthy allies. He didn't fear hard work, but he worried about those who might attempt to sabotage his efforts by abusing his trust.
