When Jared came down from the altar, Flaxseed stepped forward and patted Jared's shoulder. “Brat, you got lucky again.”
Jared only flashed a small smile and then looked around. “I heard at tiger demon's roaring. Where's its beast core?”
Both Gilbert and Evangeline turned to Flaxseed.
However, Flaxseed covered his pocket and said, “Jared, I went through the trouble of coming here with you. Can't I have one beast core? Don't tell me you want to take this too.”
“Of course not. This time, it's thanks to you. What is one beast core? You can take ten of them, and it'll still be fine.” Jared smiled.
“At least you have a conscience.” Flaxseed relaxed at Jared's words.
At this time, Gilbert whispered, “Mr. Chance, you should check up on Princess Anne. She hasn't eaten or drunk anything for the past few days and has been incredibly glum.”
Jared finally noticed Anne hidden in a corner. She had gotten a lot skinnier in just a few days.
He knew she must be depressed after receiving a blow like this. Thus, Jared walked over to her.
“Princess Anne, people's minds are unfathomable. There is no need to be so heartbroken over a traitor,” Jared persuaded.
However, Anne shook her head. “I'm not sad because of Andrew's betrayal. However, saving Father is probably impossible since the King of Herbs is not here.”
After Anne found out that the King of Herbs was just a lie, she had been constantly worried about her father's safety.
When Jared understood the cause of Anne's sadness, he said confidently, “Princess Anne, don't worry. Once the matter with the ancient ruins has been settled, I'll go back with you. I'm confident in treating your father.”
“Really?” Anne's eyes lit up, and she stared at Jared intently.
“Of course. I wouldn't dare to play a trick on the princess of Seneris.” Jared smiled faintly.
Anne was instantly reinvigorated, and she started smiling again.
