Handsome Fox stopped the hypnotic suggestion seed a hair breath away from Ezra's forehead and Fox stared into his eyes searching for fear and despair as he threatened him. However, to his surprise nothing he said or did was able to garner any other reaction but a mix of disgust and provocation.
He was at his wit's end, he wanted to resort to physical torture but couldn't as harming the dwarf in the presence of a member of the 'Blight Brood Club' would trigger the contract. With his means limited, Handsome Fox could only verbally threaten Ezra which seemed to have no effect on him whatsoever
"Tsk," Wyatt scoffed and stared right back into Handsome Fox's gaze with nothing but pure disgust. Even with the hypnotic suggestion seed pressing on his forehead, he remained undeterred. It was not because of his ignorance about the capability of the seed but because he was confident that his calamity soul gem could easily defend against it, the protective cover of the dungeon calamity seed was not to be underestimated.
"You asked for it," Handsome Fox finally acted on his words and he pressed the seed right between the brows of the dwarf's forehead. Under his direction, the seed entered the dwarf's body and began to take root.
Witnessing that Handsome Fox had finally used his ability on Ezra, Muth Diya let out a huge sigh of relief. He was relieved that Handsome Fox did not go overboard and do anything to trigger the contract. As he was happy that Handsome Fox finally came to his senses and did the right thing a part of him wondered if Handsome Fox had made the Choas dwarf follow his orders or the faction's orders, but soon he shook his head thinking that this was not his problem but the faction's problem.
Now for the next part of the mission, using Ezra to recruit the elder Choas Dwarf backing him into the faction. This one was not that important, as long as they were able to convince the elder Choas Dwarf that Ezra had joined their faction of his own will they would have completed their mission.
Regardless of his success or failure in doing so, he would have done his part by completing the mission and then all he should be worried about was how to spend the hefty rewards given by the faction for recruiting a chaos dwarf among their ranks.
Muth Diya could help but be pleased with the out of his visit to the card realm, not only had he managed to make his son the successor of the Hell of Contamination but also completed the faction's mission. He was starting to wonder if the Card World was his lucky charm.
'Too bad I will never know since it will be destroyed by us soon. Oh wait, I almost forgot about the realm fragments. Even in its death, this realm will be helping me, maybe it is indeed my lucky charm,' Muth Diya thought
While Muth Diya was counting his eggs before they hatched, Handsome Fox had a deep frown on his forehead. After implanting the seed in Ezra, he continued to stare into his eyes to see the arrogant glint in those eyes be replaced with a submissive one. However, to his surprise, the seconds turned into minutes but the arrogant gaze of the dwarf never dimmed instead it grew stronger.
lights??vel "How long are you planning on keeping me waiting or was that it?" Wyatt said aloud, frightening Handsome Fox and Muth Diya.
"How are you still in control of your element?" Handsome Fox uttered in shock.
Muth Diya, who was wondering what to do with the generous rewards of the faction, was suddenly humbled, in panic he could not help but seek an explanation, "Handsome Fox, what's going on?"
"So that was it. Turns out you are all bark and no bite. I am not disappointed, since I was not expecting much to begin with," Wyatt taunted Handsome Fox.
"Shut up," Handsome Fox yelled strengthening his grip around Ezra's neck. This was the first time he was physically harming the Dwarf, previously except for paralyzing him he dwelled in the gray area where the contract would not be breached.
"Handsome Fox, that's enough," Muth Diya rushed next to the demigod to rescue Ezra, he had no idea what was going on but he did not want to be penalized for breaching the contract.
"I said, shut the fuck up," Handsome Fox ignored Muth Diya, once again conjured a seed and pressed it against Ezra's chest.
Seeing Handsome Fox was not physically harming Ezra but using his ability again, he stood back and watched. As he wanted this, if this did not work Muth Diya could only resort to killing Ezra for keeping his secret hidden. Despite the obvious consequences Muth Diya would not hesitate to kill Ezra because he knew keeping him alive would only come back to bite him.
"Regardless of how many times you try the result will be the same. You guys are pathetic and a joke. You, are you sure you are as strong as a devil when you cannot even use your 'unique ability' on a demon master?" Wyatt continued to provoke Handsome Fox, he actually wanted Handsome Fox to use his ability on him repeatedly because he was using the Hive AI to deduce how the seed rooted into the soul pathways and made its way to the soul.
Since the protective cover of his calamity soul gem was blocking the seed's roots from reaching his soul, he could only collect more data on the root's movement even to run simulations to deduce a way to uproot the seed from a person's body without harming their soul.
"How the fuck are you doing this?" Handsome Fox was dumbfounded to find that his unique ability did not have any effect on the chaos dwarf.
