"Haha, with this amount of points, we can finally leave this garbage forest that has no good food and bed for me to sleep peacefully," Zen exclaimed happily, causing the women to be speechless.

He wanted to leave not because of the danger and possible death but that it wasn't comfortable being in this forest.

"This cheeky bastard. If it weren't for his shadows then he would have a difficult time dealing with the enemies." Daphne Camellia gritted her teeth as she envied his carefree attitude.

She was struggling to survive this entire time and became a timid girl as she listened to every order from Evie was a pain. It was like she became a bird trapped in a cage where if she leaves the cage then she would meet with an unfortunate event.

Meanwhile, Krista Dragoon was happy to finally be able to leave this forest faster than everyone else. This was the perfect time to gain influence due to their missing members in their respective households in the Jade Kingdom.

'The Kaiso family is going downhill and I shall use their patriarch's death as chips to gain control over them.' Krista dragoon smiled wickedly as she planned on making the Kaiso family into her puppet.

Leila Dragoon raised her eyebrow in surprise when her sister returned to her original shred and insidious personality. 'Sister Krista really loves dealing with politics.'

"What are you going to do after you return to the Jade Kingdom?" Angela pondered a while before asking Zen softly.

Zen has mentioned that the reason he entered the Jade Kingdom was for the auction house. Now that the auction house is basically over, there was no more reason for him to stay in the kingdom after returning.

Angela's question caused everyone to stare at Zen with a solemn expression, almost like they wanted to figure out his next plan.

Zen smiled bitterly as he wasn't expecting to get questioned like this. 

'Originally, I wanted to hurry up to the Swift Feather Kingdom after I'm done with my current task but I have decided to ally with Krista Dragoon to deal with the empress… Ugh, this is so troublesome.' Zen cursed inwardly when even he could not decide what to do first.

Sara has been waiting diligently for a long time and she could only communicate with him through Kuro and even that is not enough to soothe her anger.

"Sigh, I will think about that question later on when we return to the Jade Kingdom," Zen said softly and continued.

"For now, let me distribute the points I earned to your orb so that we can all leave at the same time."

Afterward, everyone nodded their heads and took out their orb where Zen transferred exactly enough points to make up 1000 points, making everyone eligible to leave the forest.

"Evie, you're the last one," Zen exclaimed as he finished transferring the points to everyone else except her.

However, Evie shook her head slightly and said, "No need to transfer the points to me. I have earned enough already."

Zen was dumbfounded to realize that Evie earned enough points already, even faster than him despite his cheating skills.

"I see, then I'll just keep the point to myself," Zen said shortly after.

Meanwhile, Morgan Pelora turned pale when she thought she was the only one to know why Evie doesn't need any points. 'She was the mastermind behind this forest so why would she need the points to leave? Madam Evie can literally leave this forest whenever she feels like it.'

"Okay, now that we have enough points to leave this forest, what do we do again?" Zen asked the most important question.

He only knew that they needed 1000 points to leave but he never knew the method to use the orb to escape.

Everyone stared at him with a deadpan expression, almost like they couldn't believe his words.

Stuart has explained the method to use the orb from the beginning and for Zen to not remember the method shows only one explanation: He was not paying attention to the instructions and was busy daydreaming.

Zen glanced at the women and tried to whistle off to avoid being glared at. Alas, it was only a futile effort since he was the one exposing himself.

"You're unbelievable. Instead of paying attention to Stuart for instruction, you would rather tease us and take some petty advantage on us." Krista Dragoon said purposely to entice the crowd's fury.

'Hmph, let's see how you escape all these jealous women's rage.' Krista Dragoon laughed inwardly as she prepared to watch a show on how Zen would calm the crowd down.

"Hmph, no wonder why you forgot about something as important as using the orb to leave. It's because your attention is somewhere else." Angela snorted with an angry tone.

Zen smiled bitterly and thought it was just Angela ranting on him but to his disbelief, even Daphne Camellia and Evie added more oil to the flame.

'Please, why would you two harm me like that?' Zen cried inwardly as he showed a pitiful expression at Evie. After all, Daphne Camellia held a grudge against him since he always messed with her but Evie was different.

Evie had a good relationship and cooperation with him so there's no reason for her to cause a forest fire.

"Hmm, I remember the day of our negotiation where you purposely stalled the conversation and drank my cup of tea, especially when I had a lipstick mark on it," Evie said slowly and when she finished, Zen was already in a dreadful position.

Evie's word was like the final decision on sentencing Zen to death because Angela was rushing forward at Zen with her fist clenched tightly.

"I remember that time I was waiting diligently for you before that disgusting pig came to harass me but you were busy enjoying your life by taking advantage of Evie," Angela shouted with her eyes brimming with fiery flame.

Zen turned pale as he raised his hand slowly in surrender, hoping to calm her anger.
