Listening to the explanation given by the announcer the unwitting audience that was raging at the Southern Card Creationist Association after hearing the baseless speculation of the influencers, felt that what the announcer said made sense. A solid mental strength was the greatest strength of a card creationist, which separated them from regular card creationists. 

Considering that, Chris, who was in the card grandmaster realm and two realms higher than the card soldier realm Silver Milk Fraudster had an obvious advantage when it came to mental strength which meant that Chris had more command over the mortal grade ingredients of the two. 

This realization however caused the Southern part of the audience and viewers to frown. They no longer had an idea of what was going on. With the Southern Emperor’s involvement the Southern Citizens woke up from Chris’s showmanship and began to realize what it meant for the Southern Card Creationist Association to lose the challenge against a Western card creationist. Understanding the seriousness of the matter, they wonder why would the Southern Card Creationist Association send a Card Soldier and fraud as its representative, has it given up on the challenge? 

…

“You have nothing speculations to claim that Chris Ainsworth is Chris Chase?” Ann thundered at the auction house director. 

After the time rewind the boy had not pointed out that Chris Ainsworth was Chris Chase, so Ann did not blindly believe the auction house Director when he reported to her that Chris Ainsworth was Chris Chase. Since that report, Ann has been going through everything the Southern Card Creationist Association had found on Chris Ainsworth. And surprisingly there were no records of Chris Ainsworth entering the Southern Region. Causing her to wonder how a citizen of the western region was able to enter the southern region without registering his entry to the southern region at the southern border petrol. Either the Southern border petrol was not doing its job properly or Chris Ainsworth had other means to enter the southern region. 

The more Ann dug into the files collected by the Southern Card Creationist Association on Chris Ainsworth, the more suspicious she got about the character named Chris Ainsworth because it seems to have come out of thin air a few years ago. What was remarkable about him was that his disguise was almost perfect, even Card Emperors and Card Semi-demigods could not tell that he was using a disguise. What Chris was capable of did not match his attire, from the near-perfect disguise to high-level mastery of Card creation to long-distance transportation he was full of surprises. 

“Ainsworth surname belonged to Prince Chris Chase’s mother’s family, is that all evidence you have to back your claims,” Ann questioned the director sternly. Because speculations were not enough for her to accuse the Prince of the Western region of conspiring against the Sothern region, if she were to do so and it turns out that Chris Ainsworth was not Chris Chase, then it would be a huge scandal. 

As the ideal daughter of the Heatsend Royal family, Ann did not want another scandal on her family’s plate with everything that was going on with the Southern Region, especially Luna defecting to Freedom Fighters. Therefore she did not want to rush to a quick judgment. 

“Your Highness, not just the family name, their age and talent in card creation and Array formation also hint at Chris Chase moonlighting as Chris Ainsworth. Following Master Wyatt’s instruction I found that except for Chris Chase, there is no other Chris in the Western region that matches the age and talent of Chris Ainsworth,” the director patiently put forward his argument and reasoning for determining that Chris Ainsworth was Chris Chase and making this discovery he suddenly felt good because his southern card creationists being defeated by the Prince of the Western region was much better than being defeated by a random western card creationist. 

“This is not enough,” Ann frowned knowing that without concrete evidence they could not accuse Chris Ainsworth of being Chris Chase in disguise.

“Your Highness, you do not have to reach a decision yet. I believe Wyatt is up to something. Let us wait and watch his play,” Agatha suddenly advised Ann not to rush to a decision and put her trust in the boy. 

“Yes, your Highness. With Master Wyatt taking action Chris doesn’t have a chance of winning even if he were the Prince of the western region. I have already activated the Array formation of the auction house, he cannot escape. So, it will not be too late to come to a judgment until Master Wyatt is done with him,” the Director knew that slandering the royal family punishable by death, so even if he was sure that Chris Ainsworth was Chris Chase he did not dare to be adamant about it because in case he was wrong, it would be a career-ending scandal for him. 

“…” Ann nodded trusting that the boy would put an end to Chris Ainsworth’s undefeated streak and then they could take their time to uncover Chris’s real identity. 

In the corner of the room, Aria frowned seeing that everyone was putting so much faith in the boy. Learning from her encounter with the boy so far, Aria knew that the boy’s eyes were unique having witnessed him use them first hand but she did not believe that his mastery of card creation was up to standards for the task at hand. However, she did not voice her concern because she felt it was not her place to question the judgment made by Her Highness Ann. 

It was not that Aria was underestimating the boy but she was being realistic, considering the undefeated streak of Chris and the realm difference between the two, not to forget that the random ingredients favored Chris, she felt that it was a safe bet to say that Chris would win the challenge.
