546 Help

Even though his chances of surviving in the Zrochester province had increased, he could still die at the hands of the top powers of the Zrocehster province or any other powerful spirit beasts behind Keshe. So, he requested her not to divulge information on him to others.

'Since the demon king's consciousness has been consumed by the demonic lion king, the demon king has no way of knowing what happened here except for a fact that his elite demon general clone got killed by me,'

After asking her that, Ajax silently thought about the demon king's consciousness, which was consumed by the black lion. So, he wasn't worried that the real demon king would know about his trump cards.

"Sure," Keshe didn't think much before nodding her head and agreed to keep his elemental spirits as a secret.

'Phew...finally a rel...'

"But I have one condition,"

However, just as Ajax was about to heave a sigh of relief, he was interrupted by Keshe words which made him raise his brows.

"What is it, big sister?"

Nevertheless, he asked her about the condition as he didn't have another choice other than accepting it.

"I promise that I will not say anything about your elemental spirits or contract spirit beasts to any other soul as long as you help me with something," The Keshe stopped smiling and seriously replied to Ajax.

"Huh? You are already more powerful than me. How can I help you, Big sister? "

Ajax didn't understand what Keshe needed help with and asked about her.

"It has something to do with your Barbarian servant. I know he is from Ylercester province…." Keshe slowly started explaining about the help she needed which made Ajax confused; however, before she could completely explain it, Ajax interrupted by his confused look along with a shocked face, "What?" 

"Little brother, don't think much. Actually, it is very simple," Keshe patted Ajax's head before continuing, "I know that he is from Ylercester province and his spirit consciousness is sealed. When his spirit consciousness is completely unsealed, then I want him to use his powers to open a portal to his province."

After finishing her words, she looked at Ajax for an answer from him.

'Even if you don't want to help me, I will not say anything about your elemental spirits to others,' At the same time, she silently thought inside her head.

"Sure. I have no problem with it; however, how do you think, his spirit consciousness will be completely unsealed?"

Ajax felt relaxed as the help she needed was an easy thing for him. Nevertheless, he asked her about how to unseal Darbaudr's spirit consciousness.

'Sigh...this is the downside of others knowing all my trump cards,'

However, Ajax sighed when he heard her words because he knew why she was very confident in him even before she knew that two of the Darbaudr's seals were unsealed.

One, he had various element type elemental spirits,

Two, mysterious techniques and weapons like Abyssal beast god bloodline and Heaven's destroyer spear.

Since she was a spirit beast, Ajax could guess that she had already noticed his bloodline which was related to beasts. So, he didn't bother to ask further more questions.

'Maybe, she wants to go to Ylercester province as the essence of nature is much richer than her,'

He didn't ask her questions but silently thought about the reason for her to open the portal to the Ylercester province and concluded with the essence of nature of that province.

All of a sudden, the entire place had become silent as they didn't know what to say.

"Roar"

Amidst the silence, the black lion king beside Keshe roared at Ajax in a low-pitch as though it was asking something.

"Huh?"

Ajax was unable to understand what it was saying and looked at Keshe to translate it's words.

"He is asking you to visit his den," Keshe was surprised when she heard the low roar from her friend 'Demon lion king' because it was its first time inviting a human to his den.

General, the black lion didn't even bother to talk to a human; however, he was not inviting Ajax which made Keshe surprised.

"Thank you, Brave. Maybe next time. I have to go back to my mercenary squad residence as I have something to do,"

Ajax thanked the lion but he rejected his invitation and said he would visit when he came to the cursed wilderness next time.

'Roar roar'

The demonic lion looked sad as he replied in the same low roar while nodding his head.

"Haha...this is the first time I have seen Brave become like this,"

All of a sudden, Keshe started laughing while explaining the reason for her laugh.

"Huh?" Ajax raised his brows and thought, 'Maybe this is the effect of the title 'Dark Elementalist.'

It was very simple to guess because the Demonic Lion King is a dark-type and demonic type spirit beast. So, it was very friendly with Ajax with his passive title.

"Brave said he can understand and asked you to come for sure the next time you visit the cursed wilderness,"

Soon, Keshe translated the demonic lion's roar into words for Ajax.

"Sure. I will take my leave then,"

Ajax nodded his head and said that he would leave.

"Okay. When you want to talk to us, you can simply come to the middle section of the cursed wilderness and me or Brave will come and pick you up,"

'Roar'

Keshe and the demonic lion king nodded their heads.

After saying their goodbyes, Ajax turned and moved towards the exit of the cursed wilderness.

"Big sister, if you don't mind, can you help me something too?"

Ajax only took a couple of steps before turning back towards Keshe and asked for help from her.

"Sure, little brother. As long as it is in my hands, I will do it," Keshe considered Ajax as her little brother from the first time they met. So, she nodded her head and agreed to help him.

"You have sufficient power in venturing the middle-section and inner section of the Cursed wilderness?"

Ajax slowly returned back to Keshe and the Demonic Lion King and slowly asked her.

He didn't say what he needed from her; instead, he asked her a question that made Keshe frown as she didn't understand why he was asking such a question.

"I can solve any kind of problem in the middle-section; however, the inner section is very complicated and there are many unknown spirit beast kings laying dormant,"

Nevertheless, she answered his question and said that the inner section of the cursed wilderness was very complicated.

"Hm"

Ajax nodded his head before saying with a serious expression on his face, "I want some help in finding my friends who escaped into the Cursed wilderness a couple of months ago."

"What?"
