[Master Ezra,

My father has returned to the dark realm. He has arranged a Diya tribe elder meeting today and a meeting with his trusted subordinates from the faction after that. I think he is arranging people he trusts the most to get the information you asked him to get. I will continue to monitor his every move and keep you updated, Master Ezra.

Regards,

Yours truly

Cuth Diya]

While reading Cuth Diya's text Wyatt entered the seed world. From the text, it seemed Muth Diya might be obedient for a while. However, with Cuth Diya monitoring him, Wyatt was not worried about this variable. Still, he could not underestimate a devil merchant. Therefore, Wyatt had decided that if Muth Diya did not come through on his orders or showed any sign of rebellion, he might as well tie the loose ends after squeezing everything he could get from him.

"Wyatt, you're back!" Dredre greeted Wyatt as soon as he entered the seed world but before he could answer, Susan asked in concern, "Wyatt, is everything alright? You left in a hurry, without a word."

"Nothing to worry about, the problem has been solved. Sorry, I made you guys worry over nothing," Wyatt responded politely, now that he knew that the townspeople were out of danger he had a more pleasant mood than before.

After all, sitting in a third-tire city of a little-known district of the southern region he was able to save more than a hundred thousand townspeople in the most remote place of the northern region by making a few calls. As a bonus, he had not only foiled the plan of Muth Diya but showed the world that Gideon was not some kind of boogeyman that the Southern Region cooked up but the real deal. Though his privilege level was not as high as Aba's his favors held a high enough value. This was a testament that his struggle in the card world so far was not a waste.

"Wow, Dredre, your forest has come a long way. Your efforts are showing results," Wyatt suddenly praised looking at the Dredre's floating island trying to change the topic.

"You noticed, I think the forest spirit will be born soon," Dredre informed like a proud mother.

Though a forest spirit was not as strong as the world will, they were basically the same. With proper nutrition and nurturing, in time Dredre could grow the forest spirit into a world will. Wyatt wondered if he could speed the process by bringing more pixies or helping the spirit steal a little soul energy from the Card World's will.

However, soon Wyatt shook his head awakening from his contemplation as this was not his project to take over but Dredre's. If she were to ask him to participate then he might present his opinion to her and proceed based on her decision. Though he could not get more pixies, allowing the forest spirit to steal from the card world's will was not impossible. Of course, it all depended on Dredre's wish.

"That's great. Can you inform me when the forest spirit is about to be born? I would like to witness its birth," Wyatt requested Dredre, as he planned to record the process of the birth of the forest spirit and study it in his free time. Thanks to him being able to exist on both physical and spiritual planes simultaneously he would be able to record the changes in both planes during the birth of the forest spirit. With this, he would not miss anything about the forest spirit's birth.

"Sure, silly," Dredre agreed without hesitation and then informed, "The spirit will be born within a day or two, are you planning to be in the seed world for the foreseeable future?"

"Yes, I am. Don't you worry, even if something urgent comes up during these few days, I will have my clones deal with it. So, do not hesitate to call me when your forest is about to give birth to its spirit. I do not want to miss it for anything in the world," Wyatt assured Dredre that he would be in the seed world for the next few days so she should not hesitate to call him during the birth of the forest spirit.

"Okay!" Dredre exclaimed with a high-pitched voice expressing the sheer joy she was feeling. Her pink hair and wings radiated with a pink glow, showing how overjoyed she was to hear Wyatt claim that he would not miss the birth of her forest's spirit for anything in the world. This was important to her, as this was the first time she was giving birth to a forest spirit by herself in a foreign land.

Then Dredre invited Susan, Corey, and Park saying, "Will you guys also be present to witness the birth of my forest's spirit?"

"Of course, I thought we were already invited," Susan replied while Corey and Park nodded in agreement.

"Great! That child will be happy to see so many people welcoming it," Dredre uttered excitedly, and then excused herself saying, "I have to make preparations to welcome the child."

"Dredre, use my account to buy what you need in preparation for Forest Spirits' birth. Don't hesitate about the cost or worry about a budget. I want it to be a day to remember. Consider it my gift to the forest spirit," Wyatt offered to Dredre having realized that she attached great importance to the forest spirit's birth.

"Thank you, Wyatt," Dredre thanked Wyatt for his generous gift. However, Wyatt feared that Dredre might hesitate to spend his money. So, he turned to Susan asking, "Can you see to it that she doesn't hold back and gets everything she needs regardless of the cost?"

"Leave it to me and here, the storage card contains the list of ingredients you ordered," Susan agreed while handing him a storage card.

"Can you share the bill with my demon merchant codex?" Wyatt asked Susan to share the bill for the purchase surprising Corey and Park.

"Sure," though astonished, Susan agreed with Wyatt's request. As she was about to share the bill with his demon codex anyway. As for why she was surprised, it was because this was the first time Wyatt had requested her to provide him with the bill after he made her his exclusive manager. She was confused, wondering if she had done something to cause Wyatt to behave this way.

"..." Corey wanted to say something seeing the confusion in Susan's face but was stopped by Park. After all, Wyatt as their boss had every right to ask them for the bill of their purchase. So it was not their place to criticize him.

Noticing the reaction of the girls, shaking his head Wyatt explained, "I just wanted to compare the prices at which you guys got the ingredients to the prices at which I would have gotten them. Not just the prices but the quality of the ingredients. Despite the fear of the devil merchant code, the demon/devil merchants on its network are not beyond trying to cheat their customers. All three of you are new to this and too honest to be a demon merchant or think of the trickery the demon/devil merchants are capable of. So, sit tight and wait for my evaluation. I hope you guys did well."

Wyatt was not overreacting, he spoke from experience. After all, Wyatt, himself, was almost scammed by a demon merchant trying to buy top-quality phantom sword wood mushroom spawns. He would not have noticed the difference in the quality of the mushroom spawns if not for his soul pupils which allowed him to take swift action against the demon merchant. Causing the demon merchant to compensate him when he threatened to appeal with the devil merchant code.

Wyatt was not joking when he said that he wanted Susan and Park to conduct import and export of ingredients between the devil merchant code and the Card world on his behalf. With the presence of Gideon, another unknown demon merchant, and the Seven Princes of hell faction, the prices of the card world and devil merchant code will be saturated soon until the demon invasion which Wyatt was planning to stop even before it happens. So Wyatt was pressed by time if he wanted to make the most profit from this. Which was why he took some of his precious time to train Susan and Park.

"Oh, okay," the trio sighed in relief in unison.

Susan was the most relieved after hearing Wyatt's explanation. She was a little happy that Wyatt was making time in his busy schedule to train her. Though the thing between them had become official recently, they had not spent some proper alone time since then let alone go on a date. She knew Wyatt had a lot on his plate to take care of so she was happy with what little time she got to spend with Wyatt regardless of the reason. Though it was a bummer that Park and Corey would be present too.

Seeing the trio sigh in relief, Wyatt felt they were prioritizing the wrong thing. They should be worried about the result of his evaluation rather than feeling revealed hearing his explanation. This led Wyatt to wonder if he should implement a punishment system such that the girls would take the evaluation seriously.

While Wyatt frowned, Corey suddenly declared, "Don't you worry Wyatt, we got you the best product at the cheapest price possible."

Susan and Park also confidently nodded agreeing with Corey's declaration. However, Wyatt felt differently.

"Somehow, hearing you say that I am more worried," Wyatt was not kidding, he really felt that way.

"Don't worry Wyatt I helped them check the quality of the ingredients they bought," Dredre assured Wyatt, as she waited for Susan to help with the preparation to welcome the forest spirit.

Since Dredre helped them, Wyatt was not worried about the quality of the ingredients they bought except for the price they paid to get them. However, Wyatt hoped the girls did not have to depend on Dredre for such simple trades, as this was an opportunity for them to learn by making mistakes such that they could grow faster as demon merchants. With a cheat like Dredre by their side that was not possible.

"Thank you, Dredre," Wyatt thanked Dredre for helping Susan and Park out, as it was not a part of her job specification.

"Wyatt, don't thank me. I helped them because they are my friends," Dredre replied shyly. She was still not used to getting thanked. The Infinity Library had abused the Pixie race's generousness so much at they felt a unnatural when thanked.

"Okay, you three. How about you compare the markets in the inter-realm network with Card World's market to come up with three ingredients that we can import or export to Card World from there and report it to me? Do you understand your homework or do I have to go into further details?" Wyatt asked specifically eyeing Corey among the trio.
