　　Time- 07:05

　　Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild Association Mall, Warehouse no.234

　　"What do mean by something powerful is masking demigod Redfall's location? What can be more powerful than a soul status candle? It is the omnipotent item for a mother to track her child, nobody ever has been able to escape its ability." having regained her calm Asong questioned her aide. What she said about the soul status candle's capability was all true. Nobody has ever been able to mask the tracking ability of the soul status candle like ever. 

　　"...." The aide had tried everything she can think of and was also puzzled as to how demigod Redfall was able to escape the tracking of the soul status candle. 

　　"Maybe it is because the soul status candle's tracking range is only limited to within this dimension." Ann pointed out. 

　　"Your highness, are you trying to say demigod Redfall is hiding in a gate dungeon." Asong's aide hurriedly interpreted what Ann meant.

　　"Yes, but not just any dungeon will work because the soul status candle will still be able to sense the location through the gate connecting the dungeon and this world unless this dungeon happens to be an SSS-rank gate dungeon. Then it is possible to negate the tracking of the soul status candle. There was a case a few decades ago. Few daring criminals kidnapped a royal child and hid it in an SSS-rank gate dungeon. Thankfully grandpa happened to return to the southern capital that day otherwise, we would not have been able to rescue the kidnapped royal progeny." Ann narrated what she knew about avoiding the tracking of the soul status candle. 

　　"Wait, you think demigod Redfall is hiding in an SSS-rank gate dungeon? Even a team of demigods would be afraid to use an SSS-rank gate dungeon as their hideout. Forget the periodic dungeon refresh, there is no SSS-rank gate dungeon within thousand miles of sky blossom city. That's just impossible." Asong did the math in her head and concluded that demigod Redfall wasn't hiding in an SSS-rank gate dungeon because not to mention the improbability of this scenario if demigod Redfall was hiding in an SSS-rank gate dungeon that would be suicidal on his part. 

　　"Hey, don't yell at me. I am trying to help." Ann complained, not liking the on-edge Asong.

　　"I am sorry, I can't just sit still knowing that there is a monster in the city going around devouring innocent souls. Last time, when we found out about demigod Redfall's crime it was very late. I don't want to repeat the mistakes of my predecessors." Asong apologized to Ann and add, "Reborn Demigod Redfall by himself is very weak, maybe Yin-widow helped him somehow." 

　　"Hello, Yin-widow died trying to find demigod Redfall." Anna pointed out. Anna remembered Yin-widow constantly begging Anna to return her son to her. 

　　Asong was not thinking straight, her mind was preoccupied with the destruction that Redfall had left behind before his death, she did not want it to happen again.

　　Seeing Asong lose her cool I couldn't help but ask, "What did demigod Redfall do? I know that he sacrificed people to improve his realm but I never got details of what he did." 

　　"There are lots of heinous crimes demigod Redfall has committed for his desire for power, I will not go into details but this should be enough to help you understand demigod Redfall has no boundaries when it comes to his pursuit of power. He used his followers to give birth to kids and then extracted their innate blood to enhance his talent. Those children were his flesh and blood but he did not hesitate to swallow them for his desires. Thousands and ten thousand of his newborn babies, he used then to collect innate blood to create an elixir to enhance his talent. His monstrosity knew no bounds. Those newborns were just appetizers in his madness for power." Asong painted a vivid picture of the madness that demigod Redfall was capable of. 

　　"Wait, isn't it hard for demigods to produce children with mortals and lower realm card apprentices?" thinking past the vivid horror story Asong just narrated I asked her about the hole I found in her story. 

　　"About that, he had gotten his hands on a certain card made from the gentiles of the swarm devil Broodnun. The creation of countless progenies regardless of the realm and species is one of the well-known abilities of Swarm devil Broodnun." Asong answered.

　　"Wow, you seem to have done a lot of homework on this," I said, seeing how Asong seemed to know everything about the Redfall case even though she wasn't part of the team that prosecuted and hunted him down. 

　　"Yes, I did a case study on this case because this case is the best example of what happens when beings with unimaginable power are left unchecked. I plan to make sure that such tragedy doesn't repeat itself." Asong explained her interest in Demigod Redfall. It seems she did not just have a bone to pick with Redfall but everyone with the power to disturb the peace of the world. 

　　"Un-huh," Hearing Asong's answer I came to an understanding that soon the central capital was going to have a lot of changes. Earlier Asong did not have power yet she still managed to make a lot of changes and now with the op origin card I created for her, it seems it will not be long before Asong goes head to head with old demigods that control and shape this world from behind the scenes. 

　　"Wait, how did Redfall get his hands on the card created using the gentiles of the swarm devil Broodnun? Does that mean Redfall has a connection with the demon worshippers?" Ann asked after hearing Asong explain how demigod redfall was able to create countless progenies despite the restrictions of his realm. 

　　"Wait, if I remember correctly the ingredients extracted from the swarm devil Broodnun were awarded to the Davies family for their contribution in purging the demon worshippers." Anna suddenly pointed out.
