Himmel Soan’s words intrigued Firey. He wanted to appease her so that she wouldn’t make trouble for him now.
Firey’s eyes lit up when she heard the words “sacred beast.” A sacred beast sounded much fancier than magical beasts. It would definitely taste better!
She immediately lost interest in the petty magical beasts. The sacred beasts were her new goal.
“Master, when are we going to look for the sacred beasts? I don’t think Rustam will die. He just needs to be careful. Nothing will happen!
“Let’s find some sacred beasts!”
Firey urged her master. Of course, Himmel Soan wouldn’t listen to her. He was the one who told her about the sacred beasts. He wasn’t going to be tempted by her.
“Firey, behave yourself, or I won’t take you to the sacred beasts. This task will be completed in a couple of days. If you delay it, I’ll hold you responsible!
“Besides, sacred beasts aren’t that easy to spot. If you want to find them sooner, we need to figure out the mystery about the Dusk Soul Forest!”
Himmel Soan tried to persuade Firey. He was worried that she would do reckless things.
Apparently, his concern was unnecessary. Although she tended to do reckless things, with his orders, she would behave, no matter how much she was itching for action.

Three days later in Stelladom, Zuxra and her two friends returned to Starwan Tower.
“Zuxra, Gadel, please wait a moment. The chief will be here soon!”
Gadel nodded and waited with Zuxra. Before long, they were led to see the chief.
They heard Ley Nim’s voice before going inside.
“Why are there only the three of you? I know all the tasks are dangerous, but you came back before you completed the mission. You do know the consequences, don’t you?” Ley’s voice was cold and without any emotions. It was almost like a machine talking.
Ley wasn’t angry because these people were incompetent. What disappointed her was their retreat without completing the mission. That was unacceptable!
“Chief, I know we came back before we should have. We wouldn’t have defied your order if we had any other choice. If we hadn’t returned now, we might never have been able to come back!
“After much consideration, we decided to withdraw first and tell you what happened in the Dusk Soul Forest.” Gadel pressed his forehead on the ground and didn’t dare look at Ley.
Even if he raised his head, he wouldn’t see Ley’s face because there was a screen between them.
Ley chuckled. “What a nice excuse. We’ve had so many teams like yours. They all backed out and came back at the last minute. They sounded just like you. Do you know what happened to them?”
That sounded like a death penalty in Gadel’s ears. There was no mention of punishing him, but basically, Ley was telling Gadel that his excuse didn’t work. The source of this content is No(v)elFire.net
It was something Ley had heard too many times before.
“Chief, we have more news!”
“We ran into a girl with red hair and a red dress in the forest!” Exasperated, Gadel brought up Firey.
He knew if he didn’t say something now, he would never have another chance.
Ley frowned at the mention of the girl. The punishment could wait.
“Speak. If the information is useful, I may spare your lives. If not, you’ll be wasting my time!”
Gadel was relieved when he realized Ley was interested. It was a risky bet. If he couldn’t raise their chief’s intrigue, he would have been dead by now.
Luckily, their chief was interested in the girl.
“We were attacked by a bear and could have all been killed when this girl appeared out of the blue and saved us!
“Without her, we wouldn’t be here.” Gadel talked about Firey as if they were close.

“The girl didn’t feel the incompatible energy. She ate a whole bear on her own!
“The bear was dead, but that energy was still inside it. It would definitely raise an incompatible feeling. But nothing of the sort happened!”
Gadel told Ley everything he knew about Firey. He described all her moves to the greatest detail. He even asked the other two to remind him, fearing that he might miss something.
“Wasn’t she with a young man in white?” Ley asked.
Gadel was perplexed. He only mentioned Firey and never said a word about Himmel Soan. However, Ley still knew the man.
Could they have met before? That had to be the case. Otherwise, why was their chief so interested? They had to know each other.
Gadel nodded. “Yes, there was a young man of that description. The girl addressed him as master. I was just about to tell you!”
He said respectfully as if he was telling the truth.
Ley didn’t think much of the trivial things.
“Tell me everything about them, and maybe you get to live!” Ley made an offer.
Gadel’s only goal was to keep himself alive. He could finally feel safe!
