Tang Shaoyang remained silent as he focused on his food. He only raised his head when the two girls sat across from him. "I have asked them to prepare breakfast for you guys as well."

Ashley ignored breakfast and went directly to the main topic. "What will you do now? Will you go back to Gigante Forest?"

"Mnnn." Tang Shaoyang nodded his head as he swallowed the meat in his mouth. "Yes, but there's a change of plan. I will go alone to fight the Guardian Beasts and the Dark Tribe. I will tell Aki and the others to continue their trip to the Beast Coven's territory."

"Why? Even though you have a dragon, it's still Myth Rank. I don't think you can win against the Guardian Beasts even with the Golden Dragon." Ashley voiced out her doubt. As someone who was raised on this continent, she knew the terror of the Guardian Beasts. If her man wanted to fight the Guardian Beasts, then they should fight together.

Tang Shaoyang did not convince Ashley with his words, but with action. He summoned Maldros the Black Storm Dragonewt, and Orlean the Demon Prince. Both are Grade S+ Spirits, not his stronger spirits, but it should be enough to convince Ashley.

"What do you think about them? These two could fight against the Epic Rank tow to tow or even stronger than the Epic Rank." He smiled at Ashley.

The girl scanned the two spirits. He had seen Orlean when they fought against the Malone Family and the Ambrose family's force. However, this was the first time he saw Maldros, and the first time she saw a species like Maldros. Her blue eyes locked at Maldros.

"Greetings, Mistress. My name is Maldros, and I am Black Storm Dragonewt." The dragonewt seemed to know that the two girls did not know what he was, so he told them.

"Dragonewt? What's that?" Ashley blurted out.

"Dragonewt is a race with a dragon bloodline. You can say that we are a dragon's descendant, but we are quite distant from the actual dragon. It's fortunate for me that I am a third-generation descendant, so I have a little resemblance to a dragon." Maldros explained. He treated the ladies like his Master, a smart move on his part.

"Is he telling the truth that you are stronger than the Epic Rank?" Ashley bluntly asked the spirit. It was just hard to believe that Tang Shaoyang had a summon that was stronger than the Epic Rank.

"Indeed. I think I have an advantage against the Epic Rank, and maybe up to Ancient Rank." Maldros nodded his head and went on when he received a glance from his Master. "Also, Master has stronger spirits than me, Mistress. You don't have to worry about Master. I believe no one can beat him."

Ashley realized the gap between her and Tang Shaoyang was just too big. She could not even be compared with his summon. Genius Knight? It was more like a garbage knight.

She was praised to be one of the geniuses in the kingdom. Yet a genius like her was nothing to Tang Shaoyang who came from a lower world.

"You should not compare yourself with Master, Lady Ashley. He is a special one." Orlean, who seemed to notice the change in Ashley's mood, tried to comfort her. Of course, he was telling the truth as well. On Earth, his Master might be the strongest one. That was what Orlean believed.

This was just a depressing truth. Tang Shaoyang who could feel Ashley's feelings immediately changed the topic. "What about the war between the Revolution Army and the Lionax Kingdom? Any update from the battlefield?"

"Yes, they are in a stalemate situation. While the Lionax Kingdom deployed its reserved force, the Revolution Army had reinforcements from another world. I think the war will continue for some time. A few weeks or maybe a few months." Ashley immediately updated the information about the war.

She knew it was Tang Shaoyang who forced the Revolution Army to appear early. That was a smart plan, but not as effective as he thought. She knew the Revolution Army's strength, so she thought the kingdom would root the Revolution Army very quickly.

But she did not see this come where the Revolution Army could stand a chance against the kingdom. This was an unexpected situation.

"That's good for us. I have more time to conquer Gigante Forest. I haven't even taken down one of the four biggest tribes in the forest. It will be bad if the Revolution Army falls too quickly." Tang Shaoyang had the same thought as Ashley.

He thought the Revolution Army could not win against a well-established kingdom such as the Lionax Kingdom. He just needed the Revolution Army to weaken the kingdom's force.

Tang Shaoyang finished his breakfast even before Selena and Ashley's breakfast came. He looked toward Ashley and Selena. "If you want to join the battle, then you can join Aki's group toward the Beast Coven's territory."

"But…" Ashley still wanted to follow Tang Shaoyang to fight the Guardian Beast. She wanted to get involved with the major battle.

"We don't know if Kirin has evolved to Demi-God Rank or not, but I don't want to gamble by bringing you guys to battle against the Guardian Beast. If the situation is too dangerous, I can retreat." Tang Shaoyang reminded Ashley of the possibility the Guardian Beast had reached Demi-God Rank.

Ashley was silenced by that statement. She knew she was just a burden if she followed Tang Shaoyang. She was not even an Epic Rank.

"Also, I want you, Roan, and Tristan to lead the knights. We will bring the knights into the forest!" After he said this, Ashley had nothing to say. She was trusted with the knights.

She knew this was the best for her, not just for her safety, but also for her growth. The weaker opponents were the only way to pave her way to Epic Rank.

Ashley nodded her head. "I will listen to you."

Tang Shaoyang was aware of her frustration, but this was the best for her.
