"Putting aside the problems concerning your ident.i.ty, Little Baem's action after your death, and the loyalty of your once comrades, what about Belphegor and his dark faction? If you proceed with your plans, they will learn of your existence and ambition sooner than later, and considering your history with them, they will not sit back and let you do as you please."

Wyatt needed to know that Park had answers or at least had thought of these problems before he agreed to help her because he did not want to waste his time on a sinking ship nor did he want to manage Park's forces in the dark realm on her behalf because if her subordinates could stay loyal to Park for almost a millennium despite her absence, regardless of what he did for them they would always choose Park over Wyatt.

Wyatt had big roles for Park and her forces to fill in for his plans for the dark realm, especially when it came to stopping the impending second demon invasion and dealing with Belphegor and his dark faction. However, if he felt Park and their subordinates were not up to the mark he had no problem taking his investment somewhere else.

"Don't worry, with Belphegor and his faction focusing on invading the card world, this is the best time for me to reestablish my authority in the dark realm. I am not foolish to think that they will leave me alone but considering the amount of resources they have already invested in invading Card World, they would prioritize the realm invasion to save their investment. Even if they cannot tolerate my return at best they can spare a riff-raffs to come after me as that is all they can spare since the manpower it takes to invade a realm as powerful as Card World was not small," Park answered confidently, giving Wyatt the feeling that she had thought everything through. Meaning she was worth his time and investment.

"It looks like you know what you are doing, so what do you need my help with?" after a little questioning, Wyatt understood Park was not in over her head about reestablishing her force in the dark realm but thought everything through. Which gave him the confidence he needed to consider supporting her.

"Little Baem and my combined wealth no matter how immense will run out soon but before that happens I need your help to come up with a profitable business that my forces can run in the dark realm to not only allow them to sustain themselves but also make enough wealth to grow our forces and also wage war against Belphegor and his faction. Lastly, I hope you will give your permission for me to use your ident.i.ty as a privileged Infinity Library member to run that business," having reported she wanted Wyatt's help Park immediately added, "Obviously you will be equally compensated for your contribution and troubles."

Wyatt nodded listening to Park not ask him money outright like Corey did instead proposing a win-win deal. From this Wyatt learned that Park had long-term plans for re-establishing her forces and she did not plan to do this just for the sake of getting revenge. Wyatt even felt that Park's primary motive for reestablishing her forces was not vengeance but repaying the loyalty of her comrades and subordinates.

This mindset of Park was in line with Wyatt's plan for the dark realm, Belphegor and his dark faction were just mere obstacles in achieving his ambition. Wyatt's goalpost was far away and would not be satisfied by defeating Belphegor and his dark faction. Wyatt wanted a chill life but that shattered the day he accepted Librarian Jr's offer to let Dredre be his exclusive pixie. He had unknowingly entered a game that he did not even understand. All he could do now was grow as strong as possible and as quickly as possible.

"Great plan, I will love it. However, the dark realm is centuries ahead of Card World in terms of everything and they have everything. So I do not think in a short time I will be able to think of a unique invention that could help you establish a flourishing business in the dark realm," Wyatt gave Park his honest opinion.

The dark realm regardless of how cruel when it comes to magic or tech or lifestyle, it was lightyears ahead of any realm in the Myraid realms let alone the Card realm. It market was very compet.i.tive hence it was saturated. Running any business there would prove very challenging let alone making it a success.

"No, I am not looking for your one-of-a-kind inventions of yours. It will only make us pry for stronger forces," Park said shaking her head and then informed, "I have something already in mind, I just want your help fulfilling it."

"That makes this easier, go ahead let me hear it," Wyatt said with antic.i.p.ation as he was always looking for a challenge.

"A Fast Food chain," Park answered, hearing her Wyatt lost all his interest.

"Nope, not interested," Wyatt rejected Park's idea without a second thought. He did not even bother to consider it.

"What does your interest have to do with this? A fast food chain will be the best way for us to make money and also help us monitor our territory. Besides, everyone loves good and cheap food," Park was taken aback by Wyatt's rejection but she quickly gathered herself and tried to reason with Wyatt. Today she learned one thing obvious about Wyatt he was a junkie addicted to inventing or discovering something above all it should have a challenge to it otherwise it was hard to win his attention let alone arose his interest.

"Fine then, do that. However, I am not a cook so I can't help you with that," Wyatt did not see how he could help Park with her fast food venture besides the Dark realm was filled with fast food chains, and the compet.i.tion in that field was immense. Since Park brought it up, Wyatt thought she would have considered it.

Starting a successful business chain was only possible when one knew the local market at the back of their hand to figure out what it was lacking. Only those who had lived and experienced the lifestyle of the dark realm would be able to find the gap in its local market.

Next came a perfect solution to fill the gap that would appeal to the local customers, otherwise someone else would see the flaw/gap in your business model and use it, giving birth to a strong compet.i.tor. Besides, for a creator like Wyatt, all this kind of business was too much of a ha.s.sle which was why he rejected Park's fast food chain proposal.

"No, you can. I want your a.s.sembly line monster meat processor and a similar a.s.sembly line machine to create fast foods," Park informed Wyatt where he would come into the picture of her running a flourishing fast food chain.

"You have my attention but answer me this, Dark realm is not like Card world, they do not lack proficient array masters to create arrays to automatically process meat and prepare food rendering my machines moot," n.o.body knew Wyatt's product better than him and what market they were suitable for.

"True, but hiring good array masters to reliable array formations will cost a lot, take a lot of time, are high maintenance, it costs more to repair an existing array than building a new one, and not to mention these arrays are not mobile like your machines. Besides, hiring a third party to set up arrays will come with potential risks like information leakage, attracting unwanted attention, etc. All in all, using your machines seems to be the best option," Park pointed out the merits of using Wyatt's machines over array formations to run her fast food chain.

"I did not think of it that way," Wyatt acknowledged that he was indeed too quick to dismiss the fast food chain proposal, Park had done her homework. This only worked because Park and Wyatt would own this business otherwise Wyatt could not think of anyone crazy enough to trust machines over array formations. Array formations have always been more efficient than machines. The only reason Park considered this was because she had seen Wyatt's cousin Ronnie's origin card in action.

The machines in the Dark realm that Park knows were basically golems as they were created using artificial will and artificial soul pathways, unlike Wyatt's machines which were a mix of Earth's technology, artificial will, and artificial soul pathways. So Wyatt's machine wasn't any less efficient than similar rank array formation. Park was in for a big surprise.

"It seems now you have changed your mind about running a fast food chain, does it mean you are going to help me?" Park asked Wyatt with great antic.i.p.ation as he was crucial to her plans. She could mind capital and golem machines somewhere else but not the ident.i.ty of an executive VVIP member of Infinity Library.

"Yes," Wyatt agreed as Park gave him no reason to do otherwise. And then he thought to himself, 'Never would have I thought that I would be so hyped to own a fast food chain in the dark realm. how crazy is that.'

"Yes!" Park exclaimed, overjoyed getting Wyatt onboard her plans of retribution for her loyal comrades and subordinates.
