Location- Card World, Southern Region, Blossom District, Sky Blossom City

Arriving at the gymnasium Wyatt found a few familiar figures such as Debra Khan, Dan Malvin (ex-leader of the former Great Eagle Gang), Kane Kaga, etc Wyatt said hello to and shook hands with all of them, as Cindy introduced them and their contributions to Wyatt one by one.

"Boss, this is Rob Fielding, he has the most contribution in helping our Fine Gold Branch into most cities in the Blossom District."

"Madam, you flatter me. If not for Boss's popularity and prestige, those stuck-up City lords and family leaders from second-tier cities would not even meet me. It was all Boss's doing I was only the messenger."

"Mr Fielding, you are too humble. Keep up the good work."

After a long line of Fine Gold employees, it was finally the turn of the kids from Bright Lion Security agency. Wyatt remembers seeing these kids during the city tournament or the Bright Lion gang's parties. They all used to dress like roadside ruffins or whatever they considered cool but now all of them were neatly dressed in black tuxedos and had a sense of professionalism to them. Wyatt felt that turning the Bright Lion gang into a security agency worked out for the best.

However, one among them these kids stood out. She was covered in bandages like a mummy except for her head & eyes and wearing a tuxedo above it. She looked like an anime character that Wyatt remembered seeing back on Earth. She also oozed a calm and authoritative aura like the anime character. The resemblance was uncanny. When it was her turn before Cindy could introduce her and her contributions to Wyatt, he stared into her eyes and praised, "That's a sick look, impressive."

However, the girl was flustered meeting Wyatt's eyes and listening to his praise. She began fidgeting, erasing the calm and authoritative aura she once had. Seeing this Cindy smiled mischievously and introduced her to Wyatt, "Boss, this is Aurelia Malvin. Your number one fan."

Listening to Cindy introduce Aurelia was Wyatt's number one, there were various groans among the Bright Lion Gang members expressing their disagreements with Cindy's statement. One of them, Kane Kage even fearlessly spoke up in protest, "Madam Cindy, I am boss's number one fan."

His remark ensued a series of protests, each claiming to be Wyatt's number one fan. It was total chaos, the once peaceful gymnasium was now noisier than a fish market. However, Aurelia who was fidgeting, sharply turned to face the crowd and yelled, "Silence!"

Listening to it everyone immediately went silent and her voice echoed in the gymnasium. She was no longer a shy girl facing her idol but a lioness commanding her pride. As her gaze swept through the members of the bright lion gang everyone looked away not daring to lock eyes with her. Even Dan Malvin and Kane Kaga did not dare to stand against Aurelia.

Seeing that Kane Kaga who had Ivy a summon-type origin card created by Wyatt himself did not dare to go against Aurelia, Wyatt was surprised. What surprised him even more was that Kane's summons Ivy did not come out to confront Aurelia when the latter was challenging her master openly.

"Kane, what's wrong with Ivy?" Wyatt asked in concern seeing she did not come out to defend him. After all, Kane's origin card was overpowered for his realm, he found it hard to believe that Ivy was afraid of Aurelia. So much so that she did not come out to protect her master. As far as Wyatt remembered Ivy was sentient and very loyal, something like fear should not be able to hold her back. As the creator of Ivy, Wyatt was willing to stake his name to guarantee that Ivy would definitely come out to protect Kane in any circumstance.

"Ivy— she lost to Aurelia. She was killed in the battle and is still recovering in my grimoire. I am sorry boss, we let you down," Kane apologized.

Meanwhile, seeing Wyatt inquire about Kane's summons, Aurelia hurriedly came forward to explain, "I did not mean to kill her but she was too weak."

Her words did not help explain anything but only made things worse, Kane and the other members of the Bright Lion gang stared at her but none dared to talk back to her. Dan, who had been silent so far immediately came forward and apologized to Wyatt, "Boss, forgive my cousin, she did not mean any disrespect. She is just too straightforward and does not have basic social maturity."

"So, she is your relative. Is she from out of town?" Wyatt said recalling both Dan and Aurelia shared the same surname. And also that if the City had someone as strong as Aurelia then why did she not participate in the city tournament?

"Yes, Boss. She moved her when she heard about you and since then she has been doing her best for the gang," Dan explained only to hear Aurelia warn him, "Dan, stop calling us a gang we are a private security agency."

"Boss, you see what I mean," Dan said helplessly.

"I see," Wyatt nodded and stared at Aurelia and used his soul pupils on her to check if she was truly strong enough to defeat Ivy.

To his surprise he found that Aurelia wasn't strong at all instead she was the weakest among all the members of the Bright Lion members. Her talent for active soul control was also subpar and she had just recently entered the Card Master realm. However, she had a very sturdy physique. So, Wyatt asked her, "Aurelia, do you possess a physique?"

Listening to Wyatt the members who were staring at Aurelia out of rivalry, looked at her in pity. Even Dan and Cindy looked at Aurelia in pity. However, Aurelia replied with a confident smile, "Yes, Boss. I do."
