Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild Association Mall, Warehouse no.234

"Susan, can you get me some ironwood seeds and an arborist card?" Having recorded the soul pathways and arrangements of the elder druid as it grew a human fairy guard. I wanted to record the soul pathway and arrangements of the growing ironwood tree. Then using these two sets of soul pathways and arrangements, I can transform the soul pathways and arrangements of the fate ingredient ironwood seed so that when planted, it can grow up into a tree fairy with numerous additional abilities.

"Currently, the mall has 3 E-rank and 1 D-rank arborist cards. Which level would you prefer?" Asked Susan after checking the guild association mall catalog for an arborist card.

"Ironwood tree is a mortal grade G-rank tree, so a D-rank arborist card should be enough to grow an Ironwood seed into a fully grown tree in a few minutes," I answered, feeling that a D-rank arborist card should meet my requirements.

"Okay, give me a few minutes. I will make arrangements—" as Susan was about to go get the ironwood seed and arborist card, Anna interrupted her, "I will come with you. I am feeling bored in this warehouse."

"It will be my pleasure, your highness." Hearing Anna, Susan quickly reacted and answered politely even though Susan was worried about Anna's intention behind tagging along with her.

"I am coming too!" Corey yelled, worried for Susan, believing Anna was up to no good.

"Corey—" Susan wanted to reprimand Corey and reject her from tagging along, believing it would inconvenience her highness. But was interrupted by Anna once again.

"Good, let her come. More the merrier." Anna agreed to Corey tagging along with them and nodded at me before following Susan.

'What is Anna up to again?' I thought as the girls left the warehouse, leaving me alone in the warehouse with Vivian.

"Vivian, I will require your assistance with card creation, so if you have any other work today, make arrangements for them." saying that, I made myself comfortable on my couch and began to go through the recordings of changes in the soul pathway and arrangements of the elder druid as it produced a human fairy guard.

"Thank you, Master Wyatt, but my schedule is wide open," Vivian replied, standing behind similar to a bodyguard.

"Vivian, sit on the couch." Following my orders, Vivian sat on the adjustment couch.

After a few minutes, I heard a few footsteps enter the warehouse. I got up to welcome the guest. It was a middle-aged woman wearing a tight uniform followed by two uniformed young men in their mid-twenties that had entered the warehouse.

I was astonished to see the middle-aged woman. She was an unexpected guest. Honestly, I never believed that we would cross paths again. I had difficulty discerning why a person of her status would visit my card boutique.

"Long time no see, kid." Seeing me, the middle-aged woman's eyes shone as she greeted me.

"Hello, Auntie Denise. What brings you here? Are you here to check up on how your friend's orphan son is doing? How gracious of you?" The visitor was none other than the chief of Sky blossom city police department - 89th precinct, Denise Johnson. Mama Wyatt's trusted friend. Young Wyatt met her at his parent's funeral. As for me, I officially met her in the information room of the 89th precinct.

"I see you are doing quite well for an orphaned high schooler. But that's not why I am here. I am here due to work." Getting my rude reply, Auntie Denise's brows couldn't help but frown and reply sternly.

"Are you here to finally update me on the complaint I filed against the Zhang mercenary group? I heard their leader field the city. Is it true?" I asked innocently as if I had no idea about Kevin Zhang's whereabouts.

My first card fight in this world was against three rookie card apprentices from Zhang mercenary group. I managed to defeat them in self-defense but was dragged to the police station. With sufficient evidence for my innocence, I was released, and then I made use of the same evidence to file a case against Zhang mercenary group goons for various charges enough to spend the rest of their life in prison. But I never heard back from the authorities regarding the proceedings of my case. Therefore I was pretty surprised to see the police Chief show up at my card boutique.

"I don't know about that, but we believe that Kevin Zhang and his nephew Ben Li are missing, and you are the prime suspect." Police Chief Denise's words jolted me awake. Now she had my full attention.

"What do you mean, Police Chief? May I ask why I am the prime suspect?" I was indeed behind Kevin Zhang and his nephew Ben Li's disappearance, but I have made sure to cover my tracks. What is she playing at?

"Sure, we will answer your question at the 89th precinct. Please follow me quietly. Don't make me cuff you." The Police Chief ordered as she dangled handcuffs in one of her hands.

I didn't know why Denise was doing this, but it did not distress me. After all, I had the backing of the southern royal family. Without sufficient evidence, Denise couldn't hold me for long. And Van would arrive with bail at the 89th precinct before these people took me to the 89th precinct. But I did not want to experience the feeling of wearing the handcuffs with the weird ability to suppress the wearer's contract with my grimoire, making it impossible for me to summon it.

"Sur—" before I could agree with her, another uniformed young woman ran into the warehouse and reported to Police Chief Denise, " Chief, not good. A mob has surrounded the entire area."

"What? Who are they? Why are they doing this?" Yelling that, Denise rushed outside the warehouse, not waiting for the young female officer's answers.

"Huh?" The commotion outside was deafening. Loud enough to be heard within the warehouse. Curious, I followed behind the officers.
