Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital, Southern Card Creation Association, Auction House

"Next!" Chris's voice reverberated throughout the auction house's main hall. By now the unsuspecting people of the south had understood that they were not helping Chris stick it to the big organizations but to embarrass the southern region as a whole. As for the guests and viewers from other regions, they were having fun at the expense of the Southern region. 

The audience's gaze returned to the stage, as they tried to find the next representative of the South. Unable to find the next representative of the South on the stage, the crowd followed the gaze of Chris to find a teenage boy flying out of the balcony of the royal family's exclusive VIP box and slowly hovering towards the stage. 

Scurtanizing the young representative of the South, the crowd became active finding that the teenager was of the card soldier realm. They were surprised to see the Southern card creationist association send out a card soldier realm card creationist to represent them against a talented card grandmaster realm card creationist. The crowd wondered if the South had lost its mind. 

"It's the Silver Milk fraudster," an influencer in the crowd immediately pointed out. 

After the incident involving the Freedom Fighter, world leaders were aware that Sliver Milk Powder was not fake but the unsuspecting general public was still under the impression that it was a fraud created by the teenage fraudster, Dalton Wyatt aka Sliver Milk Fraudster.

"So the rumors were true, the Southern emperor has taken fancy to the fraudster," Seeing the boy fly out of the balcony of the Royal family's exclusive VIP box the crowd began to speculate widely. 

"What her highness, thinking by sending the fraud to compete against that Western bastard," One of the southern citizens who was no longer smitten by Chris's showmanship and lies complained. 

Unfaced by the crowd's gossip, the teenage boy slowly landed on the stage. Seeing the teenager, Chris smirked and said, "So you are the famous Dalton Wyatt, the Sliver Milk Fraudster." 

"Yes, I am the famous Dalton Wyatt. However, tell me which name you prefer to be called by Chris Ainsworth or Chris…" 

"Your Highness, not good," the auction house director rushed into the Royal family's exclusive VIP box. 

"What is it?" Ann asked with a frown, seeing the commotion caused by the auction house director. 

"We finally managed to find the real identity of the challenger Chris Ainsworth," the director reported. 

"Well, are you waiting for my invitation? Out with it already," Ann stated sternly

"Your Highness, Chris Ainsworth is none other than the prince of the western region, Chris…" 

"...Chris Chase" 

Listening to the boy speak his true name Chris's expression turned stern. Then he glared at the boy with a malicious gaze then slowly asked, "You do know that slandering royalty is punishable by death?" 

"So you do remember that you are royalty, I thought you forget since you are dressed like a beggar and smell like sewers," I retorted to Chris's quick-witted response though he threatened me using the Chase Royal family but also did not disclose that he was who I claimed him to be. 

When Chirs said I was slandering the Royalty he meant, I was slandering Chris Chase by comparing him to him. A decent defense but how did he know that when I said Chris Chase, I was referring to the Western Region Prince Chris Chase? Not bothering to nitpick his argument, I said, "As royalty aren't you ashamed to use such despicable and lowly means to gain two minutes of fame." 

"Are you here for the Card Creation duel or talk?" Chris chose not to address the boy's accusations because any word he said right now could be used against him in case he fails to escape this predicament. 

"Don't bother delaying time to use your long-distance teleportation card, the space isolation array of the auction house has been turned on," I warned Chris, knowing that once his real identity was exposed he would try to expose to not get caught in the act. If he was not caught, then there was no way for the Southern Card creationist association to clear their name. 

As for how I knew that Chris had a long-distance teleportation card, it was thanks to Anna, she was the one who had told me that Chris had escaped her wrath after calling a slut by using a long-distance teleportation card to run away with his tail between his legs. 

Listening to the conversation between the Silver Milk Fraudster and Chris Ainsworth, the crowd once again actively became loud discussing if there was any truth to the boy's claims. 

"Why would I try to escape? Since you cannot defeat me honestly in a card creation duel are you trying to accuse me of false crimes and silence me?" Chris yelled aloud. Causing the discussion between the audience and the viewers to get heated. Considering the situation even the Southern citizens were finding it hard to defend the Silver Milk Fraudster. 

Who can blame them? The audience was filled with card emperors and card semi-demigods, if Chris was using a disguise as the Fraudster claimed then they would have noticed something considering that Chris was in the Card Grandmaster realm but they did not. Therefore, it was not surprising that the crowd was finding it hard to believe the accusations of a renowned fraudster. 

"I will give you a last chance to come clean," I offered Chris the opportunity to take the honorable way. 

But considering that he could be willing to plan such a lowly conspiracy to get back at Anna, I believe he was not the one to choose the honorable option. And that was also what I wanted him to do because the harder he struggled the more fun it will be to bring him down. 

I had not forgotten that I had a score to settle with Chris Chase, as this bastard was the one who reported my Silver Milk Powder patent as a fraud to the authorities and the rest followed was history.
