My brows raised in interest as Agatha said that as compensation for her actions earlier she could tell me the reason why old Lorenzo was desperate for you to get the highest score in the array master certification in the central array master a.s.sociation as his disciple. After a thought, I decided to listen to Agatha as I had a feeling that old fossil Lorenzo would keep dodging me just to avoid answering me about his interest in my array master certification, "I will be the judge of whether the information you gave me is enough compensation for your Actions."

"I don't think so, in the last few minutes I used every contact I made in the central array master a.s.sociation to get this piece of information, so this is enough as my compensation to you and stop being too picky for someone who has no other source," Agatha seems to strongly think that the information she had was enough to make up for her actions. After all, it took her a lot of effort to get this information.

"Well, I can always ask Anna," I reminded Agatha that she wasn't the only one who could get me the Answers.

"Good luck, with that," hearing my response, Agatha sn.i.g.g.e.red, she seemed confident that Anna wouldn't be able to get information on why old Lorenzo was acting weird about my array mastery certification. As if she knew something that Anna wouldn't be able to uncover.

"..." Agatha's mysterious action only added to my curiosity about what old fox Lorenzo was up to. It wasn't just Agatha's action that made me curious about Lorenzo's intentions but Lorenzo himself because he was greedy by nature and if something has caught his attention then it must be not ordinary. Therefore I felt like I should hear what I had to provide. Considering that I am supposed to rely on her for protection while I am in the sun blossom city, I don't think it would be wise for me to continue this sour atmosphere between us. After all, communication was key when it came to this sort of stuff. The lines between me and Agatha had to be healthy for my own sake, "Fine, tell me why that old b.a.s.t.a.r.d is so h.e.l.l-bent on me getting the array master certification as his disciple and getting the highest score in the history of the central array master a.s.sociation?"

Seeing the young card creationist finally cave, Agatha was satisfied and felt it was worth it to go through the tedious process of reaching out to each of her contact in the central array a.s.sociation to get to Lorenzo's secret, "Senior Lorenzo is so desperate because of a wager between him and current head of the central array master a.s.sociation."

"What a wager? That is it, and you acted as if it was some kind of big secret. Were you trying to sucker me from the start?" Hearing Agatha's Information I snapped at her because it was one of the reasons I had in my mind to explain Lorenzo's actions. This wasn't so hard to guess.

"Yes a wager, you are forgetting the important detail here, the rewards of the wager," Agatha gave a dramatic pause and soon continued saying, "Have you ever wondered why someone with senior Lorenzo's capabilities was still in the card emperor realm?"

"Now that I think about it, you keep calling that old fox senior, despite the difference in your realms. Why is that?" I found Agatha addressing old Lorenzo as senior peculiar but I ignored it considering that Lorenzo's position in the southern royal family outranked Agatha's as DemiG.o.d Windsor's retainer.

"That is because senior Lorenzo is older than me," Agatha gave the plainest but dumbfounding answer that I wasn't expecting to hear and she continued saying, "That is not important now, the point I am trying to make right now is that Senior Lorenzo is intentionally suppressing his realm and delaying his progress."

"Are you sure about that? I thought that he was stuck in the card emperor realm and was unable to break through further into the higher realm because of his lacking talent," I did not agree with Agatha's words as I found them hard to believe.

"I am younger than senior Lorenzo and my talent is nothing special either, yet I am in the semi-demiG.o.d realm while senior Lorenzo is still in the card emperor realm. This clearly shows that if senior Lorenzo wanted, with help of the resource of the southern royal family he could have long broken through but he didn't. Clearly, he was delaying his progress," Agatha explained herself.

"What is the point of this and what does it have to do with me?" I asked Agatha in annoyance.

"Will you let me finish? This has everything to do with you," Agatha blamed me for being impatient.

"I would not require to interrupt you if you didn't keep going off track," I argued.

"Just listen for a minute will," Agatha said sternly and then continued to say, "The wager I spoke of earlier is not just between the head of the southern array master a.s.sociation and the head of the central array master a.s.sociation but all the five regional heads of array master a.s.sociation of their respective regions. This wager is the reason why all five of the regional heads of the array master a.s.sociation have been choosing not to break through to the higher realm even if some of them were nearing the end of their lifespan limit as card emperors."

"..." Hearing Agatha's information I had a hunch that Lorenzo and the other regional heads of the array master a.s.sociation were competing for something. And this must be the reason why Lorenzo so desperately clung to me to partic.i.p.ate in the array master certification as his disciple and get the highest score on the test in the history of the central array master a.s.sociation. Something that could attract the attention of five regional heads of the array master a.s.sociation enough to stop them from breaking through to the higher realm must be extraordinary. No wonder old fox Lorenzo was so tight-lipped about this.
