"I can not believe that you noticed that. How did you figure it out with that dumb brain of yours?" Ann was astonished that Anna had already grasped one of the loopholes in Yin Widow's Yun Harmony Curse. 

"I dare you to call me dumb again. I won't care if you are my origin card and shred your card to pieces." This is the reason Anna never used her origin card. Ann was a judgemental prude who constantly nagged her about her life choices. Anna already had her mother for that. Since she can't avoid her mother, she chooses to avoid using her origin card. 

"Anna, it's okay to be dumb. Everybody is not made the same way. Your freakishly strong body makes up for your tiny brain, so relax." Ann tried to console Anna for being dumb. 

"That's it. Release me from the effect of your Slow card. I am going to shred you into as many tiny pieces as possible." Under the effect of Ann's card, Anna's thought process was 10,000 times faster than the average speed, which means 1 second outside was 2 hours inside in her head. If Anna tries to shred her origin card, she would have spent a few hours mentally before her body actually tore her origin card.

"Enough, don't act like baby Anna. Do you think the Yin Widow is stupid? After you have deciphered her trap card, she will definitely not underestimate your smartness. I believe that the elderly Lady is up to something. Otherwise, she would not ask her undead to drag you right in front of her.

Also, if you kill her here, how are you going to drag her to the southern watch military court to punish ger for her crimes?" Ann found Yin Widow's action fishy, and that is why she was against Anna's idea of entering possession mode and blasting the elderly lady into blood rain. 

"I see. But do you really think she is up to something? I feel that she is too confident about her Yin harmony curse and throws all her caution out of the wind." Anna felt that confident about her curse card Yin Widow had grown reckless enough to allow her within such proximity to her. 

"No, experienced the strength behind your Giga punch there is no way she would let you punch her defenseless unless… she no longer plans to keep you alive. 

That's it! She wants to kill you using your own strength so that our family cannot track her. It seems she has grown impatient but not enough to get her hands dirty." Ann finally found the reasoning behind Yin Widow's reckless actions. It seems she no longer plans to use Anna's help with her son's revival. 

"What? Don't tell me mom used my placenta to create a Soul Status candle card. That is just gross." The notion of her mother using her placenta as a card ingredient disgusted Anna.

"I don't think so, but there are better alternatives for a Soul Status candle card. I bet mom must have created one to keep track of your sorry ass. If mom did not, grandma and grandpa must-have. Yin Harmony curse seems to be the best way to bypass those tracking cards." Ann explained. 

"Wait? If we were to one-shot her, we don't have to worry about the curse returning the damage. Right?" Anna was right in the state of alter ego possession; her strength would increase by ten times that should be enough to one-shot the Yin Widow. 

"What if she has a resurrection card? The user has to withstand the damage first before the Yin Harmony Curse activates, which means if we kill her in a single punch, the Yin Harmony Curse will be nullified. 

But if she had equipped a resurrection card in her grimoire, then you will face imminent death through the feedback of the Yin Harmony Curse after she resurrects." Ann pointed out to Anna that there are cards that could revive a person meaning that death is not the end. 

"No way, that veil card has been banned since ancient times? The chances of her possessing such a card are near zero." The resurrection card that Ann spoke of fell under the demonic practice. Therefore, its card recipe was destroyed, and the card was banned from production. 

"Now, who is the naive one? Seeing how the Yin-Yang harmony sect had the Undead Graveyard trap card hidden in their treasury, it wouldn't be a surprise if they had the resurrection card. Other banned cards, therefore we have to be cautious and plan our move to deal with this elderly lady."
