"Gasp!" Bloodette sprung up, having awakened, but then fell back on the bed. It appears she was unable to control her body. After all, her body had enough drugs to put an SSS-rank entity under the influence.

"W-what is happening? Why can't I feel my body? I can feel it is connected to me, but I cannot control it properly— Cortney! Did you find her—" Bloodette asked hysterically, finally remembering Cortney after waking up from her coma but Wyatt immediately cut her off saying, "Calm down, Bloodette, I have found a way to find Cortney. But I need your help, so calm down."

"You did? Where is she? Let's go get her now," Bloodette asked Wyatt staring at him with her sanguine eyes. Though she was having trouble controlling her body, Bloodette's mind seemed to function normally except for her panicking over Cortney.

"Yes, I did and I need your help to get her back. But that will not be possible if you enter a coma once again. For Cortney's sake, you need to pull yourself together," Wyatt gave Bloodette an anchor to hold on to and gather herself.

"Coma? What are you talking about?" Bloodette asked Wyatt in puzzlement.

"You don't know," noticing that Bloodette had no idea of what he body was doing to her, he realized that if she knew then it would lose its purpose as she would feel agony over every memory that was erased from her mind just because her body was helping her coop with her eternal solitude in dungeon seal, keeping her sane.

"I don't know what?" Bloodette asked but then she shook her head and said, "Forget about it, we can discuss it later. I can still feel Cortney's well-being throught the innate rune. However, there is still no response from the other end. Let us go get her now."

"It's good to hear Cortney is still al— Ah, but you need to hear about your coma now because it is related to saving Cortney," Even if Bloodette chose to ignore it, Wyatt insisted on telling her about the coma.

Wyatt had to get Bloodette to get her head straight before the effect of the Anesthesia's Buzz potion wore out because that was the only way to stop her subconscious bodily response from trying to erase every memory and thing that reminds Bloodette of Cortney without harming Bloodette in any way. This was the trick Wyatt had in mind to tackle her condition, solving Bloodette's trauma by getting her psychologically stronger was the only way to stop her body's defense mechanism from trying to erase Cortney from her mind and body to save her from the psychological pain she felt for being unable to help Cortney.

A being's psyche was very delicate trying to alter it or edit it would do everlasting damage to them. The best way for them to overcome a trauma was acceptance. Wyatt planned to get Bloodette to not only learn about acceptance but apply it to her current state of mind to clear her trauma, that too before the Anesthesia's Buzz potion wore out.

Even the world's best psychiatrist would not dare to have such ambitions but Wyatt dared to because he was not lying when he said he knew how to find where Cortney was. Every word he spoke to Bloodette till now was true. He did need Bloodette's help to find Cortney's whereabouts because only Bloodette could talk to the Card World's Blood Rule Stream. After all, she was her daughter.

Wyatt was astonished to find Bloodette's card overlord realm punches managed to shake the dungeon seal to a point where the tremors were apparent in the outside world. He wondered how Bloodette managed to do that. Having experience in borrowing power, he realized Bloodette had temporarily borrowed the power from Blood Rule Stream.

Deducing this, Wyatt began to dig deeper into the relationship between Supreme Beings and Rule Streams in the Card World's will. That was where he learned that the Blood Rule Stream was the parent, guardian, and teacher of Bloodette. It was true for every supreme being and rule stream they were born from.

It was the duty of the parent, guardian, and teacher to watch over their dependant and give them the resources to survive, hence the rule stream presence was all-time high where the supreme being of that rule resided. This solved the mystery of why Bloodette knew to use the blood rule despite losing her memories regularly and why the dungeon seal was a holy place to comprehend the blood rule.

The Blood Rule Stream was doing its best to help Bloodette in every way possible. This prompted Wyatt to wonder since Bloodette can ask the Blood Rule Stream to lend her strength she could also ask the Blood Rule Stream to help her find Cortney. After all, Cortney went missing in a Blood Rule Innate rune. Hence, the Blood Rule Stream should know about her whereabouts and even well-being.

"Fine, hurry. Every second counts," the longer Bloodette was awake the more unstable her psyche grew by the second. Wyatt was worried, she might grow mad before the potion effects wore out, which would be counterproductive.

"Bloodette, I know you are worried about Cortney but you have to be strong mentally. Because the more you worry about it the more unstable your psyche grows. As a result, your body's defense response will forcefully try to erase your memories about Cortney sending you into a prolonged coma—" Before Wyatt could get to the point, excited Bloodette interrupted him asking, "Erase my memories of Cortney! Why would my body do that?"

"To stabilize your psyche, such that you won't go mad worrying over Cortney's situation. This is why it is paramount that you do not let the intrusive thoughts get the best of you. You have to trust me and believe everything is going to be alright. We will find Cortney soon now that we know how to find her," Wyatt said everything he could to get Bloodette to overcome her fears.
