The Inverse Magician was a duel of feints. Since kissing my ass wasn’t going to work he did as his nature allowed. It wasn’t the Dark Link fight I’ve been expecting, but he did use my weaknesses and faults against me.
After forcing him to yield and submit, I went straight for the Inverse Fool’s ass next. The longer I put it off, the harder it will be right?
It folded nearly immediately.
I demonstrated I had control of the other 21 spirits/servitors and made the formal question I asked of the others.
“Do you yield and submit to me as your master?”
It said nothing. Did nothing. Then suddenly, it moved. It surrendered itself into the card I was holding and while I heard no distinct answer, I knew.
The task is completed.
If you’ll excuse me, I’m going back to bed because the price of my achievement is only starting to bloom.
