Wyatt, who was enjoying the celebration with his friends in his pixie form, suddenly froze mid-air as a series of notifications appeared in his diamond grimoire. He quickly regained his composure and subtly moved out of the crowd. However, the Field Marshal followed him and, once they were alone, she mentally asked, 'What happened?'

'One of the prisoners is causing trouble. I'll go check on it; cover for me. I'll be right back; Wyatt replied, hurrying toward the isolated space that housed his trophies.

Upon entering the trophy room, Wyatt's gaze immediately met Lois's. She grinned and said, "So, you're my new master, huh?" As a bloodkin-tier daughter gem, she had retained her individuality. Unless Wyatt decided to strip that away using his bloodline order, she would maintain her original demeanor.

"What happened? How did you escape the trap array subduing you in the gem and become a daughter gem?" Wyatt wasn't interested in small talk; he wanted to know how she'd managed to escape and whether he needed to reinforce the shackles on the other prisoners.

"That was easy-by surrendering myself to you, Master, Lois answered. Instantly teleporting next to Wyatt, she added, "Thanks for the new abilities and power-up, Master. I can use my physique more comfortably now. With my current strength, I feel like I could take on a few elite demigods."

Trapped inside the daughter gem, which had been turned into a prison specifically designed to contain her abilities, Lois had studied her surroundings and tried her best to break free to gain her freedom. However, as weeks passed without progress, she realized her physique was useless here- she couldn't even contact the world's will to assist her. To her dismay, the ego-gem-like artifact imprisoning her only grew stronger and more complex over time. Seeing this, she eventually lost all hope of escape.

At first, she waited, expecting Wyatt to eventually make an appearance, perhaps to negotiate her freedom or even to exact revenge for the harm she had inflicted on his beloved Southern Emperor. But, to her dismay, Wyatt never appeared-not even to check up on her. As time passed, her reserve of soul energy was nearly depleted, as she had expended most of it trying to break free.

She began to fear Wyatt might never come and that she would starve to death in her prison. Desperately, she called out for him, but no one answered. It became clear that nothing could enter or leave her confinement. In the end, to survive, she was forced to break down her runes into rule power to compensate for the dwindling soul energy.

Lois, who had been imprisoned in isolation for weeks without soul energy or rule power to sustain herself, began to lose her mind as the fear of starving to death grew. Desperate, she started yelling in her prison, swearing that she would say and do whatever Wyatt wanted if only he would let her out. As if her pleas had unlocked a hidden key, the ego-gem-like artifact imprisoning her suddenly began to empower her, fusing with her.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The next thing she knew, she was free of her prison-though at the cost of her freedom. Despite the power-ups and new abilities she gained by becoming Wyatt's daughter gem, her sorrow over losing her freedom remained. Still, recalling the isolation and despair she had endured over the past few weeks, the exchange seemed worth it compared to starving to death.

"Surrender?" Wyatt murmured, struck by a sudden epiphany.

His mind wandered to moments when Dalie and Clown Mask had been chosen by his bloodline as its inheritors. Dalie had known Wyatt might harm her, yet she took a chance and willingly fused with his daughter gem and even share a part of her celestial power with him to help gain 'Celestial Voice! As for Clown Mask, she had expressed gratitude for his friendship with her daughter and his care for her when she became bloodkin-tier daughter gem. It seems, in that moment, Clown Mask also let go of her final resistance and surrendered to him.

With this realization, Wyatt finally understood the condition for his daughter gems to become inheritors of his cursed primordial bloodline. It was simple: they needed to truly surrender themselves to him.

If they surrendered willingly, Wyatt wouldn't need the daughter gem to command them. He now understood why bloodkin-tier daughter gems could ignore his routine orders using their cursed primordial bloodline. This unique status not only made them more intelligent than regular daughter gems but also ensured they remained equally loyal.

Their ability to disregard orders, when necessary, allowed them to adapt and improvise in unexpected situations-a capability regular daughter gems lacked, as they prioritized following orders exactly. This was just one of many advantages that made bloodkin-tier daughter gems superior to their regular counterparts.

Feeling that he might have truly made a breakthrough with his cursed primordial bloodline, Wyatt- who had only ever tricked people into swallowing or fusing with his calamity daughter gem-decided to see if he could get someone to willingly become his daughter gem, fully aware of the consequences of being his daughter gem. He wanted to test if this would cause them to be chosen by his cursed primordial bloodline as its inheritor.

With a clear plan in mind, Wyatt began searching for an appropriate test subject, and his eyes landed on the daughter gem containing the demigod Redfall's soul, tainted by the 'Breath of Erosion! Wyatt believed that, like Lois, Redfall might have grown desperate enough to do anything to get out his prison and be reborn with his peak strength.
