Evan and Sylvan left the cave where the core of the World Tree was located.
Once outside, they wasted no time and headed straight for the teleportation building.
On the way, Sylvan kidnapped Ashley to take her along. Since they were heading to the Dragon Islands to mess around in a war, there would be countless things scattered across the battlefield that could be collected and sold for money.
Sylvan felt it was beneath him—as an old man who was already a Rank Six Core Evolver—to scavenge through scraps on the battlefield.
As a result, he decided to bring along his lovely granddaughter Ashley, assigning her the noble duty of collecting all the battlefield loot on his behalf.
When Ashley heard that she would once again be reduced to a trash collector, a lifeless expression appeared on her face.
She pretended to suffer a heatstroke and fainted on the spot, hoping that the old man would show mercy and let her stay behind in the closed world of the Dryads.
