The matter involving Clawdia Moonweaver had also been itching away in Azmond's mind. However, when it came to that 'Clawdia Moonweaver', he couldn't quite figure out what exactly irked him so much.
Nevertheless, he would figure out all the answers to his queries soon enough. But for now
He needed to find himself a disguise!
....
Azmond, Boundless, and Emu ventured even deeper into the 'Crystal World', located inside the heart of the Great Wildlands Forest.
The hours passed by
And then days passed by
Until, finally
A target was spotted!
....
|Is that who you wanna use your Divine Godfiend's Concealing Technique to disguise as, Azmond!?| Boundless asked with a curious look on her face.
"Yes, that is the one," Azmond responded with a small smirk.
They were looking right at a humanoid monster of the Fox-kin lineagea Fox-kin that was discussing an unknown topic with a different humanoid monster of the Rhinoceros lineage.
The foxkin in question had long silver hair, fluffy triangle ears, and four tails sticking out of his tailbone. His attire was an ostentatious-looking silver kimono with flamboyantly exaggerated gold outlines adorning every side of it.
He also had quite a handsome appearance and could even be considered far above average if thrown into the world of humans. However, neither his odd fashion sense nor his inferior appearance was why Azmond chose this 'Monster King' to be his 'disguise'.
He chose him simply because of his strength and his personality!
That's right! He was, of course, strong, as he was quite a way's into the Early Unity Form Synthesis Realm, and it was such strength that made him a 'High-Rank King Monster King' according to the Monster Ranking system.
But that's all besides the point!
His strength was just a bonus! What Azmond was really aftersomething that would make this 'operation' go as smoothly as possiblewas his 'innately narcissist personality'.
The world turned upside down.
'Wha-!?'
Those were the last thoughts he had before his existence faded from the realm of the living. But before he died, he was able to catch a glimpse of a figure in a sunsettish-colored robe with a fox mask onstanding over him with a bloody rhinoceros-like head in his hand.
And even with such a gory sight presented to him, his soul practically came back to his body for a split second, as the only thing on his mind was...
'Damn, he's like me.'
Thud!
THUD!
His body, along with the body of the Rhinoceros-kin, hit the ground with varying degrees of impact as both their lifeless corpses lay there.
One still wore a look of disbelief, while the other one had a hint of...
Admiration?
It was safe to say that they died in two very contrasting ways.
Nonetheless, that wasn't the only thing contrasting, as a series of different valued system notifications rang out inside of Azmond's head.
