Overall, Ethan's rescue mission was progressing quite smoothly.
However, his assessment of victory seemed a bit premature, mainly due to Bazarian.
This Goddess was not very clean-handed and liked to talk while eating. It wasn't until after the grand rescue that Ethan realized that all the snow cherries from the Ice Crystal Giant Tree had been picked and eaten by Bazarian, and she looked like she still hadn't had enough.
"Is this okay?"
After learning of Ethan's intent to climb the tree, Bazatous thought for a while and produced several round, beating heart-like, eye-adorned crimson fruits, "These are of much higher purity than those for the civilians, how about you take these back as a substitute?"
She always repaid kindness with kindness and sought revenge for wrongs, and since Ethan had just helped her, preventing her from becoming the most awkward Goddess of the century, she naturally had to find a way to repay Ethan.
