Earth's Greatest Magus Chapter 1537 New Task

"I don't think we should be involved in such an affair. I personally believe it would be better for all of you to continue to focus on training."

Those words were the response Beowulf gave Ery when he told the old chief about the task the Wolf Guild currently had on its shelf. However, the latter disagreed with the opinion.

He reasoned that, not only did the task give them a huge sum of fa points, he could even help the rebels if the situation needed it.

So mbers of the pack present also showed hesitation about the idea, more precisely Yoro and Tatyana. However, their minds seed to change when Ery showed them the details of the task.

[Host: Corvin Faction]

[Task Location: Sector 320]

It was the sector located in the southern part of Silvermane city governed by the Ironcrest faction.

Casting his eyes on the young Sandune Wolf, Ery said, "I'm willing to bet this situation has Ironcrest's signature all over it."

Upon learning the details of the task, the group quickly ca to the realization that the situation most likely had sothing to do with slave trading practices, which was undoubtedly the one thing Ery's pack deeply despised.

As for Ery, while it was true he cared about the people forced into slavery, his main reason was that it was an opportunity to deal a blow to the Corvin faction.

Once again, Ery looked at Beowulf and spoke, trying to convince the old chief.

"There needs to be another reason, another purpose why this pack was ford other than just to win the Royal hunt." Looking into his eyes, his tone was sincere. "So I really hope for your support in this matter, Chief."

It seed his words worked their way into the man as Ery could see the smile on his face. Nodding his head slowly, Beowulf then said, "Maybe you're right… It seems that age has influenced my decision. This is what a young wolf's pack should do, tempering your skill in a real dangerous situation."

With that, everyone agreed they would participate in the task from the Wolf Guild, except Annara. In fact, the red-haired bat girl's opinion didn't really matter as the group would still be doing this with or without her help.

In order for this to work, Ery had to be really cautious in his approach. After all, they needed to fool Corvin and also the Silvermane, especially the latter who currently had their eyes on them.

Because of that, he decided to split the group into two.

Himself, Morgana, Andrei and Tatyana would go to the Wolf Guild and accept the task officially. In the anti, Yoro, who might get identified by the Ironcrest, would go alongside Beowulf and Annara to et with the rebel leader.

"Alright, let's do this!"

After Ery and the other three went through the necessary procedure, they headed to the designated briefing area together.

It was no surprise that the place they entered was the main palace in the Corvin estate. When they finally got there, Ery could see at least two dozen wolf half-blood packs already gathered.

The one who would be leading the task stood at the front facing the assembled packs, it was one of the Corvin elders, a female grand magus called Fantas. A middle-aged woman with purple hair that reached down to her shoulders and a calm temperant.

Standing together with her, however, was a familiar face Ery didn't expect to see. The young master of the Corvin family, Jason Corvin.

When he saw a pack of five magus dressed in stunning white uniforms standing at the front around Jason, Ery imdiately realized this mission most likely had sothing to do with the latter, perhaps showing off his newly ford pack to outsiders.

Either way, not wanting to make trouble before the task began, Ery made sure to keep himself out of Jason's sight as he listened to the mission briefing from the purple-haired grand magus.

Apparently, the task was a search mission for the rebels' hideout, with about two dozen potential locations. Hence, the need to ask for wolf half-blood packs from outside to assist with the mission.

Each participating pack would be assigned with a Corvin faction wolf pack. The arrangent was for the sake of cohesion, according to the female grand magus. That way, as soon as the rebel hideout was discovered, others would be able to head over and gather at that location to help.

Hearing those words, Ery couldn't help but roll his eyes. Even though one of the reasons might be as stated, he was sure the other more important reason was to keep an eye on them – the groups of outsiders, making sure they didn't do anything out of the ordinary.

"We will stop all those troubling bandits once and for all!"

From what he observed, it seed that most of the wolf packs that accepted the task were passionate about this, to the point of becoming competitive in trying to earn the bonuses for capturing and killing the magus-level bandit captains and leader.

At the end of the briefing, Ery saw a group of Corvin faction wolf packs make their way towards his group.

"Are you the Chief of Twilight Fang?"

"Yes, I am Evan."

The group approaching them were dressed in sophisticated dark gray uniforms, consisting of two magus – one Crescent Moon and New Moon – and five saint-level wolf half-bloods. All of them had pride in their gait. Even knowing Ery and Morgana were both at Crescent Moon level did not lessen, much less change, their condescending attitude.

"I am Ashi of the Blue Moon," the Crescent Moon magus of the group introduced himself.

In reality, Ery did not mind having such a prideful pack, as sheer confidence usually ant a dependable group. However, what they did next quickly changed his impression of the group.

They blatantly gave lustful expressions to the female mbers of Ery's pack, their main target being Tatyana the brown hair fox girl.

"You are Trixie, aren't you? Wow, to think we'd be on the sa team as the Red Pagoda's favorites… It's quite a fate, don't you think?

Thanks to their connection as a pack, Ery and the others imdiately sensed Tatyana's uncomfortable response. At that ti, Ery was not able to make trouble with them at such a pace, however, he secretly planned for a way later during the mission, maybe sothing to make them disappear.
