The Field Marshal was right any agreement cannot be just annulled by one of the involved parties but needs to be agreed upon by all the involved parties. Even if it's a creditor forgiving a debt the debtor has the right not to agree to it and pay his debt with the agreed-upon interest rate. People overlook this because they all assume the debtor would be relieved to have his debt forgiven. Wyatt was fully aware of this when he annulled the wager. Was he betting that the Field Marshal would not agree to it? What do you think? Yes, he was and Field Marshal was fully aware of it. Still, she walked into his trap just like had she willing sat and watched as Henricks stole the D-rank silver beach dungeon relocation card. Had Wyatt annulled the wager saying no hard feelings I was just joking or something of that sort, the Field Marshal would not have had trouble agreeing to annul the wager between them. However, Wyatt said he would annul the wager thinking he bet on the wrong person. Wyatt stated he judged her incorrectly. He meant he was wrong to think the Field Marshal was someone who would uphold her promise. He implied that she was someone who went back on her word. In summary, Wyatt said the Field Marshal had no honor. This did not sit right with Field Marshal even though Wyatt handed her the key to unlock her cage. Now all she had to do was use the key and walk out of the cage but she could not bring herself to do that. Her heart and mind did not allow her to leave the cage. Yes, Field Marshal had her shameless side but at the same time, there was another side to her that also valued honor over her family and the southern region itself. One such example was when she watched as the agents from the central government attacked her defenseless husband, bombarded her sister-in-law, and stole the one thing that would help prosper the southern region that she loved just because of her promise to Henricks. Wyatt who was the victim of the Field Marshal's shamelessness and honor knew exactly what he was doing when he went to the extreme and annulled the wager that would give him the Field Marshal's undying loyalty. He knew if he brought up the Field Marshal's honor doing it, she would not agree to the annulment. From his conversation with the Field Marshal, Wyatt had long judged the Field Marshal as a good person, and the good people were easy to manipulate as, despite their callus exterior, within their hearts, the good people were nothing but gullible fools who believed in the good defined by majority and let that defination limit their freedom. The Field Marshal was the same despite her shameless and despicable front in the rear she put her and her family's honor first because she believed in it. Who other than gullible fools would believe something that cannot be seen, touched, smelled, heard, or tasted? Despite being the top ten strongest in the world she left everything behind and came to a 3rd-rate city to protect a stranger who recently became famous, this alone was enough proof. "Why? You know fully well why. It would not be far-fetched of me to say that you were counting on it when you annulled the wager. What amazes me is that despite knowing what you are up to and despite having the key to my freedom in my hand I find myself stubbornly tightening the slave collar around my neck," The Field Marshal informed helplessly. Then, shaking her head she gazed at Wyatt with helplessness in her eyes and dejected said, "My niece warned me to maintain as little contact with you as possible. But, I was a fool I was so mesmerized by the beauty of the rose that I forgot about the thorns. Now I have no choice but to bleed paying from my ignorance." "I have no idea what you are talking about. I had no other agenda in mind when I annulled the wager. I meant every word I said," Wyatt denied the Field Marshal's claims with an indifferent look. Diana and Cindy were shocked seeing the scene unfold before them. They knew their boss was dangerous, after all, he brought them to their knees. But they did not know he had done the same to the Southern Hero. Someone who was known to have single-handedly defeated 100 hostile demigods. Someone whose name was feared by beings revered as gods in the ancient period, the Supreme beings themselves. But all this was nothing compared to what happened next. "Wyatt, will you please stop with games. I am tired and sick of it. If you want me to apologize, I will do that. If you want me to grovel, I will do that. If you want me to beg, I will do that. Just don't force me to taint my honor, I would rather die than become the taint on the honor of the Heatsend bloodline coursing through me," the Field Marshal pleaded with Wyatt and then took a knee in front of him shocking even Aurelia.

Aurelia had heard many stories about the Field Marshal from her mother. In each of those stories, her mother would make a point of mentioning the Field Marshal's honorable conduct toward her subordinates, allies, and enemies, alike. And her despicable conduct in the battlefield. Aurelia's mother would use the Field Marshal as an example to teach her that even if she was honest she could also be equally despicable.

Aurelia did not believe that someone capable of stabbing an enemy from the behind on the battlefield without any hesitation would be willing to risk everything she held dear to uphold her and her family's honor. These two personalities were just too opposite. Regardless, seeing the hero from her mother's stories kneel in front of her Boss Aurelia had mixed feelings. She was both proud of her boss and felt pity for her childhood hero. ...
