Location- Southern Region, Blossom District, Sun blossom city, Sewers

Hearing the conversation of the card apprentice inside the empty beast I finally understood the reason why the paw clans card apprentice seemed to be killing my B-rank Clones, they were using the death of these clones to triangulate my position by using the minute soul energy the B-rank clones realized upon their death to report their death to me. The soul energy used here was not a lot but not negligible either, still not enough to triangulate my position immediately, therefore they had to kill almost all of my B-rank clones before they could triangulate my location to the sewers.

Fortunately, I did not underestimate my enemies and made the mistake of resting in the Hermits retreat until all this blew over. If I were still in the Hermits Retreat, it would not have taken the Empty Beast any effort to spot it and take action. But I did not relax after fooling the circles semi-demigod and instead remained vigilant and made use of the small opening to extract my new rune card and use it to escape out of the sun blossom city, out of the range of the supposed warzone.

Though I did not make it out of the sun blossom city, I still manage to increase my chance of survivability through my new rune card. Considering that the semi-demigods protecting me were occupied with the Circles semi-demigods, once my whereabouts were apparent to the members of the paw clan, I would be sitting ducks. So my current situation was better than it could have been.

Yes, I was patting myself on the back, I know was still not out of the frier and it was too early to celebrate but I felt it was necessary to recognize the small wins. After all, I too was human, my mind was not invincible. In this desperate situation, it was easy for even the mightiest of the general to lose sight of the victory, only by enjoying the small wins could hope to keep the victory in sight.

My current situation was very desperate than I would like to agree to. I had to sacrifice my three mutated soul consciousnesses to escape the pursuit of the Circles three semi-demigod. Right now they were trapped in the Circles semi-demigods grimoire. This was the main reason why the Circles semi-demigod believed that the clone they captured was my true body. Fooling a semi-demigod was easier said than done. Without sacrificing my slave consciousnesses I would not have been able to get the Circles semi-demigods off my back.

Though for now my slave consciousnesses were trapped in the grimoires of the semi-demigods, there were chances of me losing them permanently or even revealing the secret of my calamity daughter gems. Though all the calamity daughter gems had inherited the self-destruct sequence from their parent Dungeon calamity seed, considering the circumstance they were possibilities of them being rendered unable to make use of it. I said this because I have never seen calamity daughter gem in action semi-demigods. This was the first, hopefully, they dont let me down. Either way I knew escaping the pursuit of the semi-demigods was going to come with a price, I guess this was the price I have to pay.

Since my three salve consciousnesses were trapped in the grimoires of the semi-demigods, if I get caught by the empty beast, this time around I will not be able to fake my death that was not considering the fact whether the paw clan members would fall for the same trick for the second time.

Since I was all out of tricks, I could not afford to make any mistake, because that one mistake could be the death of me. So the stakes were a lot higher than ever before, even though I had Mikes broken card with me still it was nowhere near enough to even the odds.

Since all the soul energy activity leads to this position means, it would safe to assume that the Circles semi-demigods dont have the boy, another card apprentice from within the empty beast spoke.

Though I could not tell how many card apprentices were hiding in the empty beast, I am guessing five of them at least, they seemed to be a lot more formidable than I thought. They were not only able to make use of my B-rank clones to figure out that I was not among the three clones captured by the circles semi-demigods but also precisely locate my location. They would have already captured me if it had not been for Mikes overpowered origin card.

That would appear to be the case, the Card apprentice who took credit for triangulating my location spoke agreeing with the card apprentice who deduced that I was not among the three clones captured by the circles goons based on his findings.

Fuck! Who is this kid? He has some interesting tricks up his sleeve. So what now, my familiar is unable to find any trace of the boy here. He must have known that we were tracing him and escaped deeper into the sewers, The Card apprentice spoke proclaiming himself as the master of the empty beast.

Since he has managed to gather the attention of Matron, this much is expected of him but something is amiss here. Considering that the boy is just a card soldier, no matter how fast his means are, he should not have escaped far yet there is no trace of the boy here. Its as if he has vanished from the face of the world from this spot. For a fact we know that the boy did not use a teleportation card, so where did he go? The paw clans card apprentice who located me at this sewer seemed to be able to trace and read the soul energy. As he could accurately tell where my soul energy signature had vanished. He was able to rule out the possibility of teleportation since the SSS-rank space isolation barrier array was covering the city. So at present, the card apprentice was confused as to how I managed to suddenly vanish without even leaving behind any trace of the soul energy signature. Unfortunately for him, no matter how much he racked his brain he would never be able to guess that I had completely morphed into a pebble because a person would never be able to imagine such an ability existed unless they had personally witnessed it in action.
