"I greet the Champion of the Twin Gods and the Southern Overlord. Your presences are illuminating the halls of this castle." King Leonidas stated which made Adrian mute as he did not know hat to reply.
Before Adrian and the Sacred Snake is the King of the Selvaggian race, he is currently bowing to both of them which made the ministers frown a little but made the Sacred Snake ecstatic. She had the look of great enthusiasm as if he wanted to say, 'All of you bow to the Blind Demon God'.
If Adrian has the ability to read the thoughts of the Southern Overlord, then he might have stormed out of there due to embarrassment. Due to Adrian sensing the hostile gazes, he immediately told the Selvaggian King to not show too much courtesy.
"Your majesty's welcome is too much. You do not need to go all in." Adrian stated in order to calm the ministers boiling with anger.
"You do not need to worry, Champion Equinox. I am just showing you enough courtesy for vanquishing one of the enemies that plagued our world greatly." King Leonidas said with a hearty laugh, but it is also a way to warn the ministers not to react. He knows that the ministers gave Adrian piercing gazes not because they are ungrateful but because they are prideful.
The Selvaggian race has always prided themselves as the strongest of the Asmodian Races. They pride themselves in being the strongest because they have the best adaptability of all the Asmodian Races. They always wanted one of them to vanquish the disasters as some ministers are backing the Hero from the Ox Clan secretly.
"Still, it is too much for someone like me. Even the southern overlord thinks the same as she does not want too many pleasantries." Adrian replied.
"The Blind Demon God is speaking he truth. Pleasantries are meaningless since it is only a matter of time before the Wolf of Disaster finds out that its child has been killed." The Sacred Snake stated as everyone in the world suddenly heard a spine-chilling howl.
"Awooo!"
"It's the Wolf of Disaster!" Someone commented.
"Why is it howling in the peak of the day?!" Another added.
"It seems that the infernal wolf is finally suspecting something. We need to assemble the other overlords to plan our attack. Contact them immediately." The Southern Overlord stated as she knows that the Child of Disasters often report through howling once a day.
The howling of the Wolf of Disaster made everyone in the capital hide in their houses. The last time that they heard this cry is the time that a large pack of demon wolves laid waste to the capital. The horror of that event is still in the minds of every living beastkin to this day.
"Awooo!" Another howl is heard after ten minutes.
"Since the Wolf of Disaster is not getting any replies, it will assume the worst. It will definitely lead a large pack of demon wolves to search the southern territory." The Sacred Snake stated which made the ministers panic a little.
"Awooo!" The last howl sounded more on an angry command unlike the previous howls.
"Will the monsters in your territory be fine?" Adrian asked the Sacred Snake, but he did not expect her answer.
"It is within the cycle of nature if they are really meant to survive or not. They can only grow stronger if they can live through this ordeal. Birds cannot fly or become free if they do not leave the nest." The Sacred Snake stated as he looked towards the south.
"Your majesty, the clan heads are already present and awaiting your presence." One of the royal guards reported.
"Will the Champion Equinox join us in the meeting?" King Leonidas asked.
"I will be fetching some people who are going to help me kill the Wolf of Disaster. Kabrakan and the Sacred Snake will be my representatives for the meeting. Can I speak with Ashana for a bit before I go my way?" Adrian stated.
"As you wish, I will assign a guard to lead you to the room that the fox princess is currently in." King Leonidas stated as he commanded one of the guards to escort Adrian.
"Thank you very much, your majesty." Adrian stated.
"To be the representative of the Blind Demon God…such bliss. I will not fail you." The Sacred Snake stated as Adrian almost tripped due to embarrassment.
====
The guard that King Leonidas commanded to escort Adrian brought him to one of the rooms in the palace. The guard then excused herself as she returned back to her post since she already did what she was commanded to do. Adrian knocked on the door and the beautiful voice of the fox princess is heard.
"You can come in." Ashana stated as Adrian entered the room.
"It seems that the fox clan will help me in my battle." Adrian stated as Ashana looked shocked upon seeing Adrian this early. She thought that he would have needed more time to recover but she thought wrong.
"Thank you very much." Ashana stated as she gave Adrian a full bow to show her sincerity. Her personal guards might not like it but even they also bowed to show deep respect to Adrian.
[You have completed the quest 'Gain the Help of the Three Remaining Overlords' has been completed.]
[Your bravery has resonated with the fox clan, and they will view you favorably from now on.]
"The fox clan will help you in your struggle against the Wolf of Disaster. If we succeed in killing the beast and getting the Wilde Flower, then the fox clan will be greatly indebted to you. We will even gie you one of our prized treasure." Ashana stated which made her personal guards react.

"Princess, you cannot give that decision on your own." One of her personal guards stated but Ashana has already made up her mind.
"The young demon has already proven himself worthy. Can you not feel the aura of the three overlords from him? We act as the messengers of the Selvaggian race to the overlords so you should now why their auras are coating him." Ashana stated as she always felt something great from Adrian.
What Ashana is sensing from Adrian is the asmodian blood flowing in his veins. The fox princess is a special existence since she has the skill Fox God's Intuition. She was born with this godly ability which made her become wary of her surroundings as she could distinguish everything.
The quest given to Adrian is actually making him tear up. Not from the happiness of the reward but due to the penalty that the mission will give him if he loses to the Wolf of Disaster. The Loss of five levels is even making him tear up because five levels is not easy to obtain at this point of the game.
"You do not need to cry, Demon Equinox. I know that you might pity me for handing a priceless treasure to you, but it is worth it as long as we will be victorious." Ashana stated as she held Adrian's hands and comforted him because she thought that the latter is pitying her.
"I see…I need to go now as I need to enlist the help of my other friends." Adrian stated as he left the scene unaware that the fox princess increased her respect for him again.

"We have been here for like an hour already. Is he coming or not? Can you contact him?" Levin Cloud stated as they gathered about four hours ago and reached the strange temple in the jungle an hour ago.
"At least, we are early, but do you think that we could beat the world boss just with our party?" Peridot asked as even she thinks that it might not be possible to win.
"We got to at least try. All the World Bosses in this world is almost killed. The only ones that are not killed are those from the forbidden areas. I hear that killing a world boss could increase levels by three instantly." Creepysoo stated as he read about the world bosses in the forums.
"The reason they are like that is because they lost those levels from dying from the world boss." Lycan stated as he came with Solstice since she invited him.
"I mean this might sound cheesy from an old man, but I actually have fun whenever we team up with Equinox." Vayu stated.
"Yup! Adventures with Big Bro Equinox is always fun." Soleil stated as she jumped for joy.
"I admit they are fun, but I do not like that I need to give my life every time." Levin Cloud commented.
A portal suddenly started to slowly appear in the area of the old temple. The rift started to open slightly as Adrian's friends became battle ready. They do not know what might appear from the portal, but they are ready if it is something deadly. Adrian told them that the portal might release some monsters from that world.
