"I accept. I already decided to help defend your territory anyway." Adrian answered as he accepted the quest. The increased recognition would make it easier to recruit the southern overlord to his cause.
[You have decided to help the southern overlord.]
[The southern overlord has been added as a party member.]
[The quest will immediately fail if the southern overlord dies.]
[Your evasion has been increased by 10% thanks to the Southern Overlord\'s Mist Walker ability.]
Adrian welcomed the bonus evasion as he could not easily evade with his slow speed in his current form. He then proceeded to disperse more mirrors in each direction. He could even make the mirrors look invisible if he placed them well enough.
The southern overlord vanished into the mist. Adrian is told that she will perform a surprise attack on the Child of Disaster so that she will get the upper hand. Adrian did so as well and casted Soul Form Transformation on all his soulbounds.
Adrian also discovered that he could multicast using each of his hands, but it is limited to spell replication. He casted the Soul Form Transformation simultaneously without much difficulty. It seems that his new form could be more of a spell caster.
It did not take long for the demon wolves and the Child of Disaster reached the southern territory. The demon wolves saw the mist rolling inside the forest which means that the southern overlord is expecting them. The Child of Disaster which is a wolf that is about fifty feet high and darker fur than the other demon wolves.
"I know that the southern overlord said that the Child of Disaster is as strong as her but that is just ridiculous." Adrian thought as he managed to see the details of the Child of Disaster.
Adrian managed to activate his evil eyes using the eyes on the palms of the extra hands to peer into the details about the Chide of Disaster. He could only lament that a high leveled named monster actually entered the battlefield, and he is not sure if he will succeed in the quest this time.
----
Name: Alphus
Monster: Lesser Fenrir
Level: 225
Titles: Child of the Disaster, Calamity, Alpha
Desription: One of the children of Fenris who is also the oldest of the tree. Since it is a Lesser Fenrir, it does not have the same restriction that a full pledge Fenrir has. No restriction also means that it is weaker than the Fenrir. If it reaches maturity, then it will fulfill its destiny as the Devourer of the Stars.
----
Alphus is leading a numerous size of demon wolves that are all in the level range of 190 to 200. The giant black wolf is very strong looking even from the images produced by the mirrors. Adrian could feel that the Lesser Fenrir is not an easy opponent.
"I will start the operation then. Quantum Cascade." Adrian chanted as he formed the spell.
Adrian is about four hundred meters away from the location of the demon wolves, but he already started chanting a spell that has limited range. Adrian is able to do this because of his secret passive skill that is generated by his current form. The secret skill is called Pathfinder.
----
Skill: Pathfinder
Tier: Legacy
Type: Passive
Effect: Able to conjure up spells in locations that the mirrors could see. The spell will not be at full power but only deal 80% of its total damage. Spells will also disperse if vision is no longer available.

The demon wolves are not all tagged as targets while he avoided the Lesser Fenrir Alphus. The southern overlord told him to leave the Child of Disaster to her for the first few seconds in battle. Adrian\'s job is to separate the demon wolves and Alphus as they are empowered with the Lesser Fenrir around.
"Now that Quantum Cascade is building up in eight different locations, I should proceed with the next spell. Vortex…" Adrian stated.
The six hands that Adrian has all simultaneously casted the Legendary skill Vortex. A small pebble size star is manifested in each of the hands. Each hand then proceeded to drop the small pebble size star into the mirrors.
The mirrors acted as a gateway for the skill and the small pebble size star appeared in the location of the demon wolves. As if Adrian has perfectly timed everything, the Quantum Cascade activated and pulled the demon wolves away from Alphus.
The demon wolves got disoriented as they got separated into six groups. They wanted to rush back into formation when the southern overlord suddenly erupted from the ground and bit the Lesser Fenrir. The southern overlord brought the Child of Disaster to another location while the demon wolves got stunned as their leader got sucker punched.
The demon wolve are about to follow their leader but Adrian will not let them. Adrian snapped all six of his fingers and six black holes formed when the small pebble size star exploded into nothingness. All of the demon wolves got dragged into different black holes.
Adrian knew that the black holes will not be able to kill the demon wolves as the damaged decreased to 80%. The buff that the Lesser Fenrir still has some effect as no demon wolf got killed. Adrian anticipated that it could happen which is why he followed up with another spell when the black holes spit out the demon wolves.
"Quantum Dispersion!" Adrian stated as six magic circles that blasted the six groups of demon wolves away from one another. His soulbounds will take care of the clean up now as he acted like a watchtower that could see everything.
