　　According to Agatha's description of the semi-demigod realm, forging Divinity seemed to be a more tedious and time-consuming process than forging an ego gem. So much so that a separate realm was created depending on the percentage of forging of the card apprentice's divinity. Agatha did not go into the details as to what is divinity, or how a card apprentice could forge it, but she did explain that forging divinity required a certain amount of accumulation period which was directly related to the grade of the divinity. And higher the grade of divinity the stronger the said demigod. 

　　"And with the help of Demigod Mara, they can entirely skip this stage and forge the perfect grade of divinity," Agatha explained why the five regional heads of the array master association were so enticed by the idea of having Demigod Mara help them forge their divinity. And continued by saying, "In this process of forging a perfect divinity Demigod Mara will have to sacrifice her divinity. If not for the fact that her lifespan has come to an end Demigod Mara would not be generous to offer this opportunity to the five regional heads of the array master association." 

　　"I see, but why is Demigod Mara offering this to the Five regional heads of the array master association and not one of her descendants or followers?" I understood that Demigod Mara would exchange whatever strength she had to help one of the five regional heads of the array master association to forge a perfect grade divinity but why did it have to be them and not somebody else? This world is filled with talented and selfless card emperors so why was Demigod Mara's choice have to be from the array master association? 

　　"Well for starters Demigod Mara has no descendants, secondly Demigod Mara used to be the regional head of the western array master association, and lastly her divinity was more suitable for array formation and would be handier in the hands of an array master," Agatha stated the reasons why Demigod Mara was being so generous towards the array master association. 

　　"Wait, what do you mean by Demigod Mara's divinity is more suitable for array formation? What does Demigod Mara's divinity have to do with helping others forge their divinity?" The more Agatha spoke about divinity the more confused I got about it as I knew where little about divinity and how to forge it.

　　"Well, that is too much knowledge for your current realm, if one day you ever make it to card emperor realm then you can ask your sugar mama about it. But for now, all you have to know is that every divinity comes with its perks and authority. When Demigod Mara helps a card apprentice forge their divinity the said card apprentice can inherit Demigod Mara's divinity's perk and authority all along with the perks and authorities that came with their newly forged divinity. And this is also one of the reasons the five regional heads of the array master association are so desperate to win the wager rather than use the time spent on the wager to forge their divinity by themselves," Hearing Agatha explain that with Demigod Mara's help the card apprentice can not only forge a perfect grade divinity but also inherit her divinity's innate powers along with their newly forged divinity's innate powers I finally knew why the wager was so important to Old Lorenzo and the other regional heads of the array master association. 

　　"No wonder the old fox was so shameless and secretive about this. The reward for his wager with the other regional heads was priceless. If it were me even I would be secretive and calculative about this," A demigod's life span was so long that they were practically considered to be immortal therefore there were not many cases out there where a demigod would willingly sacrifice their divinity for the future generation at the end of their lifespan like Demigod Mara was doing. Therefore this opportunity was godsent for the five regional heads of the array master association and they would be fools if they did not fight for it. 

　　"Not many can resist the temptation of such opportunity," Agatha sighed. She would be lying if she said that she was not jealous of the opportunity demigod Mara was providing to the five regional heads of the array master association. 

　　"So, on what is Demigod Mara judging the five regional heads of the array master association to choose a card emperor among them to help the said card apprentice forge their divinity?" Though I knew that the wager between the five regional heads of the array master association had something to do with scoring the highest marks in the array master certification of the central array master association. That couldn't be all of it as what if none of the five regional heads' disciples were able to achieve it, then what? There couldn't be such an obvious flaw to the wager, there had to be more to it. 

　　Hearing my question Agatha went on to explain the rules and conditions of the wager to me, "There are two conditions on which the demigod Mara will choose between the five regional heads to pass her divinity, 

　　1. The first condition is to produce a disciple that will be able to break the record of the central array master association's array master certification test. The first regional head to complete this condition will win the wager.

　　2. In case none of the five regional heads can produce a disciple who can set the highest marks in the array master certification in the history of the central array master association, then the winner will be decided based on the highest sum total of the scores obtained by all the disciples of the respective regional heads participating in the wager. 

　　All the disciples of the five regional heads participating in the wager should be aged below 25 years old. In case of a tie, the ruling will be left to the Demigod Mara's will."
