With Ann and Aria gone, Wyatt patiently waited for Sarah to bring Corey. On his way over here, he repeatedly tried to contact Corey but he could not connect to her grimoire. So he ordered Sarah to search for Corey and bring her to him. 

Meanwhile, Dredre asked, "Wyatt, how was your work?" 

"Excellent but I missed you so much. Next time I will take you with me," Wyatt was not lying, if Dredre was present he would not have to be worried about the space being scrambled her wings would easily find a path through the scrambled space, if her realm is strong enough it could stabilize the space with a flap. 

"I would love to, I missed you every second you were gone," Dredred expressed cutely. 

Wyatt did not dare to think of carrying the seed world on him as he worried about moving the seed world prematurely before Dredre's forest gave birth to a spirit and it matured because he could not guarantee that the spiritual plane connecting to the void of the seed world would remain the same after he rooted it and sowed in a different space. Previously, he did not pay attention to this as he did not know it would be of importance to him. 

"Dredre, did my wide search have any results so far?" Wyatt asked because he knew that with every minute the chances of saving Cortney were growing slim. However, he had no choice but to wait since he could do nothing as he had no idea about what could have transpired with her when Bloodette detonated her blood-rule body with Cortney inside her rune. With Bloodette in a coma, Wyatt had no idea if she was alive or not. 

"No. But there a still a lot of books, so don't get disappointed" Dredre summoned her demon merchant codex and answered checking the progress of the wide search in real time. 

"I am okay, Dredre. What about you, did you enjoy time with Ann and Aria?" Wyatt asked Dredre to make sure that in his absence Dredre was not made uncomfortable by Ann or Aria in any way.

"Yes, very much," Dredre exclaimed. Her excitement showed she was happy to make new friends. 

"Good, but what about the topics that I asked you to avoid when talking to others? You did not talk about them with Ann or Aria, did you?" Wyatt checked if Dredre had leaked something he had specifically asked her to not mention or do in front of Ann, Aria, or anyone else.

"I did not talk or do anything that you asked me to avoid in the presence of others. I do not want to endanger you in any way," Dredre answered with a grave expression. Just to make assure that Dredre would not clumsily reveal the secrets of her Pixie dust to Ann or Aria Wyatt might have warned her saying that his life might be in danger if people found out about the miraculous powers of he pixie dust. 

"I know Dredre cares the most about me. You could never do anything to harm me," Wyatt said, knowing Dredre did follow his warning. Otherwise, his conversation with Ann and Aria would have totally different. 

"Yes," Dredre nodded her little head vigorously making her odd bobblehead. 

"Dredre, go ahead tend to your forest. I will be on the nearby island healing my soul," Wyatt informed Dredre. It has been a while since the Hive AI processed and sorted all the books on soul recovery and division but until now Wyatt had no time to go through them, even now if Corey wasn't hard to reach he would not have been considering to repair his soul and modify its mutation. Instead, he would have been experimenting on Corey to test the method he developed to remove Handsome Fox's ability from the victim's body. 

"Okay," Dredre wanted to play with Wyatt longer but she did not want to disturb him either so she agreed planning to focus on speeding the process of her forest's spirit formation. So she could mature her forest spirit faster. Such that the forest would rely less on her allowing her to travel with Wyatt to his workplace and other places such as meet Ann in the Southern Capital. 

Just as Wyatt was moving to the barren island near Dredre's forest island, he sensed the presence of Sarah and Corey standing in the place where the seed world burrowed into space. It seems Sarah has finally managed to find the elusive Corey and give Wyatt's message to her. 

"Where were you? Why could I not contact you?" Wyatt noticed that Corey was not carrying Beam on her person, so it was clear she had left Beam to guard Susan. Wyatt appreciated this about Corey. 

"I was in my card lab, creating a new set of armor cards for big sis Susan. With everything happening recently I decided to increase big sis's strength. Since we cannot practice in the dungeon and you did not allow me to create her second origin card I can only create armor cards that help her slime armor swallow and increase its overall power. I know this is not much but my mind was going crazy, I could not sit around knowing my mama's life could be in danger. So I decided to do what I knew best," Corey explained that the reason Wyatt or anybody could not reach her grimoire was because she was in a card room, creating new armor cards that Susan could use to strengthen herself. 

"Yes, I know exactly what you are talking about. Empty mind is devil's workshop," Wyatt agreed Corey for a change. 

"Well, why did you call me?" Corey asked Wyatt as she had no idea why he summoned her. 

"I have developed the method to remove the seed and roots of Handsome Fox's ability from his victims. I need a volunteer to test the method before using it on Susan—" 

"Use me!"
