"Tilan, take me with you." Ores hugged Tilan, speaking with a mixture of pleading and playfulness.
"I really wish I could take you out, Ores, but it's not possible this time." The girl patted Ores' back, feeling like she was hugging a life-sized doll. After letting Ores hug her for a while, Tilan released her grip and explained the reason.
"This time, there are many tasks to execute, and besides, Ores is too beautiful. If you go there, bad people might try to take you away." Tilan blinked and told the naive Elf.
Due to the urgent food issue that needed resolving quickly, Tilan truly didn't have the energy to look after Ores on the road. Additionally, the camp genuinely needed Ores because activating and using the Rhythmic Crystal required her. The overall strength of the Transcendents here was lacking; even the highest in the Heshan Rescue Association was just Sequence 4, let alone others. Only Ores could stably utilize the Rhythmic Crystal.
