"Boy, why are you standing in a daze?" In the middle of their argument, Rami's grandson stood in a trance as if he had seen the love of his life.

"..." The silver-haired boy did not respond, which alerted Rami.

"Boy, what are you looking at?" Rami followed his grandson's line of sight to check what got him railed up. Rami did not like what he saw and yelled, "You, what the heck have you done to my grandson. Stay out of his sight."

"Grandpa! Don't talk to my boss like that." The silver-haired boy woke up from his trance, hearing his grandpa yell at his idol.

"What the? Boy, did you yell at me?" Rami was very close to his daughter and her only child. Being called names or yelled at by them was not new to him, nor did he mind. It made him feel closer to them. After all, they were the only people left in the world for whom he would give up his life if needed. But he kept this side of him in the downlow outside the house, fearing his enemies would take advantage of it.

"What the…..

"Haha, kid, I like you. Which family do you belong to? Wyatt family? Never heard of it. Are you from another city?"

"... f.u.c.k?!" I yelled, seeing the grandpa and grandson duo drag me in their weird argument. But something was not right. I clearly remember Rami at the door arguing with his grandson, but right now, Rami was sitting on the couch while his grandson was nowhere to be seen and I was at the entrance of the VIP box with Van and Diana.

"Kid, did you just cuss at me?" Rami's eyes turned fierce as he spoke those words.

'What the h.e.l.l is going on in here?' Right now, I am super confused. Unable to comprehend what was transpiring. It felt like… no, not Deja Vu… this is obviously time regression. I went back in time.

No, I did not go back in time. This world went back ten minutes in time. Why, though? Why did the world go back in time? And why was I spared?

'Hive AI, what is current time? What was the time two minutes ago?'

[Current time 19: 36

Time 2 minutes ago 19: 45 ]

[Warning! Unusual time disturbance detected….]

[Note! The Host's Physical body, Calamity soul gem sh.e.l.l, and broken runes have regressed by 10 minutes.]

'What about my soul?'

[Host's soul and related skills were unaffected by the time disturbance. ]

"Kid, have you grown c.o.c.ky because of your small success? Do you know who you are speaking to?" Rami was fuming, being cussed straight to the face by a boy wet behind his ears, who seems to have grown ignorant because he made small achievements at a young age.

"..." Diana was sweating bullets right now. Earlier, when her boss told her that he was going to coerce Rami Kage, she did not think he would directly open fire without any foreplay.

"Fock! I know exactly who you are. You are the wolf who spent too much time surrounded by sheep and forgot what it is to be in the company of a tiger." Repeating my words was not my style, but this one did manage to enrage Rami earlier.

I wanted to figure out why the world went back in time and why I was the only one unaffected? But right now, I was in a wolf's den, and unknowingly, I had p.i.s.sed the wolf off. Before it came for my jugular, I had to subdue it. Therefore, I gave priority to my circ.u.mstances over my curiosity. And decided to handle Rami and then worry why the world regressed for 10 mins.

"If your little achievements have gotten to your head, let me tell you all of it can go away with a single call." Despite being strongest in the room, Rami did not suppress the ignorant calf which dared to taunt him with his realm, as he loved to crumble the world of those that dared to cross him and watch them wallow in regret as they begged him for mercy.

"Oh, really. Then, why don't we make a wager? You can achieve what you claim. I will give you 10 A-rank blood elixir cards. If you fail, then you will promise me one thing. I dare you to make it official by signing a soul contract." I don't expect Rami to agree to the wager, but it was worth a try. After all, he seemed to be very humiliated right now and the type who would not stop at anything to regain back his pride.

"10 A-rank blood elixir cards? Don't underestimate my promise. Make it a 100, and we have a deal." Rami, though angry, did not lose his sense of reasoning. But he did not want to directly refuse the boy's wager because that would be humiliating since backing out would be seen as him chickening out. Therefore, he came up with unreasonable stacks to accept the wager believing that the boy would back off, fearing the high stacks.

"Okay. Diana, prepare the soul contract as per the agreed terms." I could not help but laugh as I thought how Rami was digging his own grave. Since I have agreed to his unreasonable stacks for the wager, if he backs out now, he would look like a chicken.

"Sure, boss." Diana knew time was of the essence. She hurriedly prepared a soul contract, took my blood print, and headed towards Rami for his blood print.

"..." Rami glared at the boy in front of him. By now, if he did not understand, he had messed up, then his years of experience would be considered a waste. But still, he chose to sign the soul contract because he had decided that he would use all the favors in his pocket to destroy the boy in front of him no matter which family in the Blossom district he belonged to.
