While the humans were forming their alliances and generally panicking about what to do, Kretos was back in his newly created castle sitting on his throne awaiting the next challenger. On his left side was a sleeping seven-tailed golden fox and on the right was a stoic Lycan woman.
'I wonder what kind of challenger will come next, it might be another human hero.' Kretos was getting excited as he thought about the future battles. He then looked at Shera the Lycan standing on his left side. This Lycan was the second strongest Lycan after Kir. She might be among the top demons in terms of battle power, but she still pales in comparison to a demon lord. Kretos was no longer excited fighting those on Shera's level if it was one on one, but if it was one against many he might consider it.
