"Wyatt being well-versed in array formation doesn't mean he carries ingredients for every possible array formation with him. If we are stranded in a barren realm with turbulent space, where are we supposed to find the ingredients to set up an array formation to stabilize the space around us?" the Field Marshal pointed out, highlighting the flaw in the logic Henricks used to defend himself. Regardless of how Henricks tried to justify his actions, the Field Marshal wasn't buying it. She had long harbored doubts about him, and now, watching him make one excuse after another, she was convinced her suspicions were well-founded. What puzzled her most was why her young liege insisted on trusting him, despite witnessing Henricks betray every person who had ever put their faith in him for his own gain.

Listening to the Field Marshal's argument, Henricks was speechless, unable to formulate a counterargument to defend his proposal. He had no choice but to accept that he had no defense. Now he understood the danger of a woman's grudge. If you earn their trust, they will give their lives for you. But if you abuse that trust, they will be willing to die to get even.

He truly had no plans of abandoning Wyatt and the Field Marshal on the 'Lil Red Storm' realm. Such a thought had never crossed his mind. Even if it had, he would have immediately dismissed it, as he couldn't afford to make an enemy of Wyatt. However, thanks to the Field Marshal's arguments, he now appeared guilty of that crime. The irony was that he had nothing but his word to prove his innocence. Given his history with Wyatt and the Field Marshal, his words held no weight here. It seemed his past mistakes were catching up with him.

Seeing Henricks ignore her, the Field Marshal fumed with anger but remained silent, as it wasn't her turn to speak. Now it was up to her liege to decide whether he would continue to trust Henricks ignoring all these obvious signs not to trust him. She gazed at her young liege, hoping he would make the right decision-the one she had been urging him to make since the beginning.

Now both Henricks and Field Marshal Heatsend's gazes rested on Wyatt. They both patiently waited, hoping he would side with them.

Meanwhile, Wyatt's brows had narrowed into a frown. Ile had problem of his own. He was regretting sharing his fears and appear weak in front of the Field Marshal. Previously, with a single command from him, the Field Marshal would have followed him to death without any questions. But now she was questioning his every decision and even trying to impose her ideas on his.

It wasn't that Field Marshal Heatsend was undermining his authority. It was simply that, after Wyatt opened up about his fears and showed his vulnerable side to the Field Marshal, she no longer saw him solely as her liege but also as one of her grandchildren. This sentiment made her unconsciously forget her previous military discipline and question her superior, undermining the hierarchy. In layman's terms, Field Marshal Heatsend's maternal love for Wyatt was overpowering her loyalty to

him.

Wyatt would have preferred the Field Marshal Heatsend undermining his authority over this cringey situation, as he knew how to deal with those who challenged his authority but had no idea how to deal with people who were smothering him with their love.

This was why Wyatt never revealed much about himself to people close to him, not wanting their admiration for him to develop into a selfless emotion like love. This situation remind Wyatt the words of his old friend, 'Love makes things complicated but also fun and warm!
