The Field Marshal sternly reminded Henricks his current identity was that of a prisoner, he did not. have the right to demand any form of compensation for any work he did for them let alone seek a handsome compensation.

"No need to refresh my memories, my mother, I remember it clearly. Tell me, how can I be of service to you?" Hernicks hurriedly adjusted to his prisoner identity with the Field marshal's warning. However, his rebellious side was still there. Making it clear that he would not hesitate to escape the first chance he got to do so.

Henricks was not one to give up easily. He would bow his head if the situation called for it, patiently bidding his time to make his move. When he finally made his move his enemies would not even realize what had transpired. His identity as the Central Region's Ex-Field Marshal was a prime example of this.

The Field Marshal was fully aware of Henricks nature so she and her incarnation together increased the power of the pseudo celestial space rule domain covering the city. Making sure Henricks could escape using his origin card.

Hence, he demanded Henricks to give him an answer right away. However, reading Henricks's face, his answer to his proposal and fear toward him were clear to Wyatt. It did not take him long to realize that he was being led by his fear of losing his loved ones instead of being rational.

As a result, seeing his hasty and brazen demand, Henricks who previously planned to give his proposal a fair consideration by proposing it to his colleagues and seeking their opinion on it now had unilaterally decided to reject the proposal out right. Closing all doors on Freedom Fighter on ever joining him.

Learning that being led by his fears would only prove disastrous for him, he forced himself to calm down and think logically rather than play right into the Southern Princess's hand. Therefore, he thought of a way to salvage the situation. He carefully crafted his words to let Henricks out of the spot and not close his mind to the idea of working for him, "It seems you haven't made up your mind yet. No worries, take your time. I am sure you will soon realize, it would help the Freedom Fighter's cause and interest to side with me"

"I don't know how me being your prisoner would help the Freedom Fighter's cause and interest," seeing Wyatt take a step back, Henricks who feared to speak earlier now took two steps forward causing the Field Marshal to rise her brow warning her old colleague to behave in front of her young liege.

"Don't worry, after you do one small thing for me you are free to go. But remember, the next time you try to steal what's mine, it will not end with a warning; it will end with your life. I dare you to try me again!" Wyatt warned staring directly into Henricks's eyes as if he could see right through him. The sheer intensity of Wyatt's words sent a shiver down Henricks's spine recalling he wasn't innocent in all this. He was imprisoned because he dared to kidnap clown mask right in front of Wyatt and Field Marshal without caring to check if it was a trap or not. What bothered him most was he would have gotten away with it if not for the Field Marshal's pseudo-celestial space rule domain. Yet, he shamelessly pasted a flattering smile on his face as he spoke, 'There is no point in digging up the past. Let us move on. Please, tell me what can I do for you."
