Wyatt looked at the five undead demigods that had surrounded him and then at his new cursed blood-flame body, he decided to try something new. Then making use of his body restructuring and myriad devil transformation skills Wyatt morphed his flame body into a flame tornado swallowing all five of the undead demigods in his surroundings. This was the first time Wyatt had turned into an energy body, so he wasn't still used to his cursed blood-flame body. After all, Wyatt was able to assume this form despite his lacking realm was only because of the 10xboost that his blood curse incarnation form gained under the effect of his celestial blood curse domain. Otherwise, even with his blood rule slave form and his ultimate mastery and comprehension of the blood rule stream as card master he could not enter this form. However, the effect of the celestial rule domain made it possible. An energy body was a lot different from the flesh body that Wyatt was used to for both of his lives. Since he got his hands on myriad devil transformation skills he has taken many forms but this was the first time he had turned into an energy body. It was indeed a different feeling. All his senses were not the same in his new form they were more attuned to nature. This made it easier for him to use his celestial force but at the same time it made it difficult for him to move it was like he was relearning to move around from scratch in his new body. But fortunately, because of his body restructuring and myriad devil transformation skills, he did not have much trouble getting his body to move and morph to his will and imagination. With his thoughts, his body morphed into a raging flame tornado. Morphing to a tornado was just off the top of his head but it opened many possibilities for him to use his new form. He could do the same with his original body but that would only be a horror show even for the strong-hearted individuals but maybe not for the undead demigods, however, in the cursed blood-flame body it's different, he was like a mini curse blood-flame sun, his entire body was a weapon of mass destruction. Anything that neared him would be burned to cinder. Thus, in his tornado form under the pressure and heat of the cursed blood flame tornado, all five undead demigods were burned to dust without resistance dropping their grimoires to the floor. As an SSS-rank flame with a ten times boost from the celestial rule domain, the power of the cursed blood flame was so strong that the undead demigod's enhanced recovery abilities were not a match, and died without putting up any struggle. Killing the five undead demigods, the raging tornado reduced into a humanoid form with a wide grin. Reducing the five undead demigods to dust Wyatt felt good and euphoric. The pleasure and enjoyment he received from burning the undead to dust helped him cope with the stresses that built on his mind. Wyatt did not feel the same way when he used the celestial blood fate domain's effect to kill the Circle and the Yin-yang harmony sects' card apprentices. Not to mention with their death they all left souvenirs for Wyatt in the form of fate plunder rune cards but it wasn't as enjoyable for Wyatt as burning the undead to ashes. After all, killing the undead demigods Wyatt felt no guilt or burden of taking a life whatsoever. Instead, he was happy that he could give rest to these poor souls, freeing them from Karl and the Masters' control. This was why Wyatt found killing undead demigods enjoyable and a good stress reliever like killing opponents in a video game. But this was a hundred times better than the video game after all this was his new reality. Killing the undead demigods effortlessly Wyatt turned to find the new head of the battle array formation the undead were trying to gather in. Only to learn that about two dozen undead demigods were head his way with extreme caution. Wyatt who was beginning to enjoy burning the undead to dust took this as a sport and wanting to obtain maximum pleasure from killing the undead he decided to get creative and imaginative in his ways of dealing with the undead. There were still a lot more cards and skills that he hadn't used yet. His only concern was that the remaining 694 undead demigods would be enough for him to vent.  Looking at the undead demigods heading his way, Wyatt found it funny that they were sacrificing themselves one by one to set up the battle array formation when they stood more chance to win if they all came at him together. The undead demigods were restricting themselves to close combat as they did not want their fight to disturb or delay the attempts of the other undead demigods to set up the battle array formation. The undead demigods were so focused and dedicated to completing their orders to set a battle array formation and kill everyone in sight that they did not see that trying to fulfill this order they were turning the purpose of their master's order moot. The purpose of their order was to kill everyone while suffering minimum casualties however, trying to follow their orders they increased their casualty while being unable to kill a single card apprentice. This was the drawback of puppets that could not think around their commands. This problem wasn't just limited to Karl's undead demigods, Gideon Grim's hypnotized puppets and Wyatt's calamity daughter gems faced the same problem. Though Wyatt could solve this by giving his calamity daughter gems the highest authority rank in its hierarchy system. By upgrading their tier as calamity daughter gems to left/right-man rank or partner rank. However, Wyatt only gave this rank of authority to calamity daughter gems that gained his recognition like Oldman Ben, as for Clown Mask or Ted who followed the City lord to the Way Beyond because of their circumstances they gained the highest rank of authority without any effort. Wyatt did this because in a hive not everyone could be the queen, there were grunts, soldiers, breeders, etc breaking the hierarchy and making everyone equal would only lead to chaos and the whole point of calamity daughter gems moot. It's similar to the clone paradox, not the one where the clone tries to kill the original or the original and the clone both don't know who the clone was but the one where a clone would not listen to another clone. Without a proper and established hierarchy, why would a clone listen to another clone? This was why Wyatt never just gave all his calamity daughter gems the highest authority and degree of freedom to think for themselves. Just because they were subservient to Wyatt did not mean they were subservient to each other. With the least amount of authority, the calamity daughter gems have a very low degree of freedom to think for themselves, all their emotions and actions would be focused on doing what's best for Wyatt and the command given to them. As a result, the low authority calamity daughter gem showcases a high degree of cooperation but they are dumb yet smart enough to complete their orders. However, if all of them had the highest authority and degree of freedom to think for themselves, their individual belief of what was best for Wyatt would conflict with their cooperation. After all, not everyone thinks the same, everyone has a different opinion. In their attempt to do what they felt was best for Wyatt, they would all fight among themselves unless someone with higher authority than them ordered them to stop, that would be Wyatt. Because of this trouble, Wyatt was very careful with whom he upgraded in the calamity daughter gem hierarchy ladder. After all, the leader of his calamity daughter gem should have the required qualities to call the right shots or have the bravery to make their shots right. This was why Wyatt only prompted Old Ben to partner-tier calamity daughter gem. Since Old Ben lacked emotions and Wyatt was his new pursuit, Wyatt had found that Old Ben had a very strong sense of judgment and most importantly he had the power and guts to make his judgment the right one. Being able to make the right decisions was good quality but being able to be right at the end despite being wrong initially was better quality. Old Ben had time and again proven to Wyatt that he was capable of that with some help from his tiger squadron. Looking at the twenty-four undead demigods that were about to become sacrifices for his flame body, Wyatt's grin grew as many comical ways to burn these undead demigods came to his mind. Which alarmed his heart, he was shocked to learn that he had such a side to himself.
