Chapter 460 Dealing with an Atrox Duke (II)
"Astrid, it might be good if you leave and let us speak alone."
Astrid stared at her father and understood that he did not want her to hear the price he would have to pay as it might be something that went against his ethical code. While the young Atrox wanted the opportunity to cultivate more than anything in her life, she did not know if her father's honor would be a price she could accept.
However, before Astrid could say a word, the Scarlet King spoke.
"She can stay if she can keep a secret. After all, while the mission is extremely dangerous and requires the utmost secrecy, it should not be something that goes against your sense of justice and honor or even the rules and codes of the Atrox Immortus Empire."
The Scarlet King saw how the duo looked at him incredulously, and he simply smiled before continuing.

"Master only needs you to interfere during a fight between two Tier 0 Dark Factions. You need to keep the Divine Ascension Masters at bay as he carries on with his mission. It will be a few minutes at most, and then you can escape or call reinforcements from the empire."
Willian and Astrid's eyes widened as they heard the mission. It was indeed dangerous but not something that would bring shame or embarrassment. As a Duke of the Atrox Immortus Empire, fighting underworld warriors under any context was a display of honor and courage.
Actually, if William were to lead the forces of the empire into a fight between two Tier 0 Dark Factions, he would gain a great deal of honor and praise.
"Is it really just that?" Astrid asked with a look of wonder as she stared at Kain. The eccentric Master would provide a service that no one else in the entire world could, yet he only asked for assistance against members of the underworld.
William's eyes narrowed as he heard that information. Despite his status, he knew nothing about an incursion. Clearly, Kain's Master had a great understanding of the underworld.
"Do you know the strength of warriors that will take place in this incursion?"
"Silent World was only recruiting Apotheosis Realm Masters at the beginning, but after recent problems, they began to gather Late and Peak Wave Warriors for their troops."
William nodded, and he was able to relax a little. If the ones on the battlefield are Wave Kings, then the strongest warriors on both sides will be at the level of Divine Ascension Masters, and no Gods will be present.
The logic behind this deduction was simple since there was no point in having Wave Kings on the battlefield if a God were to enter it. Wave Kings can do nothing against Gods unless they have a ridiculous numerical advantage and perform suicidal tactics, so having both simultaneously on a battlefield made no sense.
"Mmm, I can indeed generate a great impact on such a type of battlefield, and distracting two Divine Ascension Masters while they are fighting each other will not be complicated. When will it happen?"
As he asked that question, the resolve and fighting spirit in William's eyes burst. He was ready to fight and only needed to know when.
"The incursion will take place in 36 days. I need to return with Masters a little before that, and he will then meet with you two outside Evernight to heal Astrid."
William's eyes narrowed when he heard how Kain's Master would not enter Evernight, but he simply nodded. That person wanted to keep his identity a secret, but the reason did not matter. The man just needed to heal his daughter, and he would keep his word and fight.
"I will be in my cultivation abode for the next month. Just inform me before you leave, and let me know when and where we will meet your Master."
