"What was the unique trait that your daughter awakened?" I asked Denise. I was curious. After all, the trait awakened by Denise's daughter should be pretty remarkable for the entire Morning Star University to make a move for a signal card apprentice from a backward third-rate region.
And knowing Circle's Supreme leader's reach, I can bet that the morning star college would made some deal in exchange for the circle not leaking about Denise's daughter and her unique trait. The morning star university has gone to great lengths to remove Denise's daughter's existence on paper. Therefore I couldn't help but ask Denise about her daughter's unique trait.
"I am sorry I cannot tell you anything more than I have already said. They had me sign a nondisclosure contract in exchange for my daughter getting a full scholarship at the university.
Honestly, the contract was a lot harsher than this. If not for your mother intervening for me I would not have been able to tell others that I have a daughter who is studying in one of the top ten universities.
Still, due to the NDA, I can't tell people that I have a daughter, and she is studying at morning star university. Until they ask me first." Denise recounted. The morning star university tried to make sure to seal Denise's mouth but still failed to, thanks to mama Wyatt. Still, the morning star university warned Denise that if she cared about her daughter, she better not leak the information about her daughter and her unique trait.
Come to think of it, Denise asked me if I knew how she met mama Wyatt, and then the story slowly progressed about her daughter. It seems over the years, Denise has found loopholes in the NDA she signed with the morning star university.
"It's okay. I was curious, that's all." I did not need Denise to tell me what her daughter's trait was. I had the Clown Mask's memories. I will get the information I need from there.
As I explored the Clown Mask's memories, I discovered that Clown Mask had used tricks to inform Mama Wyatt about Denise and her daughter's circumstances.
It seems in the alternate timeline foreseen by Clown Mask. When the circle ordered her to kill the fleeing Denise and grab her daughter, Clown Mask had completed the mission. Denise died. Her daughter was brainwashed to serve the supreme leader, kill and die for his cause.
Denise's daughter's unique trait made her a crucial asset when the Supreme leader took over the capital region. If not for her, it would have taken another decade for the Supreme Leader to complete his plot. Therefore in this timeline, instead of completing the mission, Clown Mask had Mama Wyatt help the Johnson female duo, Denise and her daughter.
Fock! In her own way, the clown mask has been stealthily intervening with the Supreme leader's reign to power that he had in the alternate timeline seen by her. As far as I know, the supreme leader has lost Denise's daughter and my soul pupils. Taking away these two alone should be enough for setting back the Supreme leader's plans by another century or so. Yet the Supreme leader is not to be underestimated. His strength already rivals the peak powers in the present world. But he is hiding because that is not enough to take over the central region. Unlike the Matron, who relied on schemes to take over the Northern and Southern regions, the Supreme Leader had single-handedly dominated the entire capital region and its various forces in terms of pure strength before taking it over.
"Did you two know each other before this incident?" I asked Denise if She knew Mama Wyatt before she extended an arm to help them.
"Since your parents used to work for the Circle, we would occasionally meet when the city's police department extended its courtesy to the circle. We were acquaintances at best. Therefore, I was shocked when your mother offered to help me. Since I had no choice, I ended up believing her and followed her arrangements." Denise and mama Wyatt weren't friends until Clown Mask leaked her mission details to Mama Wyatt, who righteously decided to help the mother-daughter pair.
Upon stumbling on the plot of Clown Mask, I almost forgot to check about the unique trait gained by Denise's daughter. Untaintable, that was the unique trait that Denise's daughter awakened after contracting her first grimoire.
Even the Clown Mask had limited knowledge about the Untaintable trait of Denise's daughter. Even in the alternate future foreseen by her, the Circle quickly transferred the untaintable holder to the main branch after getting hold of her. Then she wasn't seen until the Supreme leader declared war on the forces of the central region.
According to the limited information the Clown Mask had about the untaintable trait, it made its holder's soul energy and rule energy very pure. And also, the user was safe from all curses. Safe not immune, meaning she could get cursed, but the curse would have a very negligible effect on her. I don't see how this trait can cause great commotion and attract attention from both the morning star university and the supreme leader.
There had to be more to the untaintable trait than just making its holder's soul energy and rule power pure while dampening the effect of curses on the holder. Otherwise, morning star university would not go as far as making a mother sign a nondisclosure contract about her daughter and erasing the holder's existence from any or all forms of documents and paper.
If I were to trust Clown Mask's future vision, then holder of the untaintable trait would become an unfathomable being under the personal guidance of the Supreme Leader. During the Circle's invasion on the Central region to take control over it, the untaintable's presence would make even the strongest forces surrender without much resistance.
