The Silver Foxes parted ways with Ansur and continue their journey for Ken, Aegeus looked at Ava whom smiled and winked at him.

Aegeus smiled back as he held her hand while they walked together, The Silver Foxes made great progress without a single incident.

Only a few issues came up such as crossing over a shaky bridge and small bandits but nevertheless they made it to their destination. The People of Ken cheered and welcome the Silver Foxes, Aegeus smiled feeling like a hero from a story.

The Silver Foxes waved and greeted the people of Ken, Mason called for his lieutenants Ava and Rhoz to accompany him inside.

Aegeus sat down with the band as he drinked some water then inspected his spear. The blade was serrated for a bleeding effect and his shield was deeply-dished shaped with a layer of oak, so a sword hitting it is like chopping a board.

"Aegeus come!" Rhoz told him as he lead Aegeus inside. Aegeus looked at the halls, it was like he step into a dream, the aura gave him a peaceful feeling.

Then he saw her, the Goddess Reborn Celestine Lucross. She indeed look like a Goddess, a Elven lady with long blonde hair, her clothing showed some skin, her breasts were a impressive size, even a mere mortal would fall in love from first sight.

"Aegeus of Feoh, you've grown up" She smiles, Aegeus kneeled down "Please rise Aegeus"

Mason chuckled a bit, "My Goddess as requested my Silver Foxes are yours to command" "Thank you Sir Mason, as you know Volt had begun a rebellion against Eostia, the Seven Shields are unable to muster our forces yet so I call upon you and the Silver Foxes, yours and Volt relationship have built the Black Dogs so I believe you know his tactics?" Celestine asked.

"Aye my Goddess, what is you request?" Mason asked. "I request the Silver Foxes hold off the Black Dogs and prevent any Mercenary company even other beastkin of joining Volt's forces" Celestine spoke then she eyed Aegeus, her expression was a bit sadden to which Aegeus took notice.

"It shall be done my lady" Mason called for his lieutenants and Aegeus to follow him, Aegeus followed but looked at Aegeus before resuming to follow.

Celestine sat on her throne as she removed her crown, "I hope in time you can forgive me Aegeus"


Aegeus followed Mason, whom went into his main tent while the Silver Foxes set up their camp outside of Ken, "Aegeus, while the Seven Shields gather their forces, we'll be holding off any Black Dogs" Mason then put down a map of Eostia.

"Volt and his Black Dogs were sent to Garca and stop the Queen of the Dark Elves, Olga Discordia" Aegeus remembered her from his childhood, but he questioned why her and Celestine went to war.

"They'll try to gather troops of monsters and other like minds, Aegeus I'm giving you a force of Your own, I want you to go to the take up reconnaissance and gather anything you found" Mason says.

Aegeus nodded then left the tent, "Aegeus Glory to Eostia" "Glory to Eostia"

Aegeus picked up a small group, as he choosed a few archers, swordsmen, a mage, and Ava to accompany him. Ava smirked a bit "There you are handsome"

Aegeus blushed as he smile, "H-Hey" Before they went out, Rhoz accompany them under orders of Mason.


Aegeus and the Silver Foxes traveled through Eostia, only stopping to take up supplies and rest. Aegeus filled his water bag from the stream, Ava sat in a tree serving as a sentry.

"So Aegeus your tattoo when did you get it?" Ava asked, Aegeus looked up to her "This?" He pointed his marking.

"It's not a tattoo I don't think, I was born with it I'm not sure of the meaning of it but I do known it's apart of me" Aegeus says, Ava dropped down "Well do you think our children will have it as well?"

Aegeus shrugged, "Probably" Then he froze "Wait our children?"

Moment laters

One of the Archers ran to Aegeus, "Commander, I've spotted a large group of Black Dogs they took a village over; Their force recruiting and any women are taken into the church" Aegeus swallowed hard then nodded.

"Alright everyone come on we're liberating the village" Aegeus says shouldering his spear. The Mage walked up to Aegeus, "Commander all respect but we're suppose to gather informatio"

"I know but we can't let those people suffer! We're the Silver Foxes we're suppose to be heroes! Are you with me?" Aegeus called out.

"Glory to the Silver Foxes!" Ava shouted, then the rest shouted with her "Glory to the Silver Foxes!" "Glory to the Silver Foxes!"


The Silver Foxes made their way to the Village, they easily snuck in while the Black Dogs relish in their conquest.

Suddenly one of the villagers noticed the Silver Foxes as Aegeus motion them to keep silent which they nodded.

Archers climb to the roofs and took aim, their arrows took out any patroling Black Dogs. Rhoz and Ava used their stealth to kill any stragglers, Ava jumped from a roof stabbing her sword into a Larger Merc's back then tossed her knife into his partner's throat.

Rhoz cling to ledge of the church as outside a couple of Black Dogs drank, the Lizardman let out his venomous saliva to drool into the their barrel of mead.

Once they drinked, they begin to convulse choaking even flagging until they collasped.

Aegeus along with Ava and Rhoz went to the main doors of the Church, Aegeus muttered a prayer before kicking the doors down.

Inside numerous Black Dogs were having their way with the women, even a few children. One of them grabbed his pants back on "We surrender?" He said.

Aegeus narrowed his eyes as he clenched his spear while Ava twirled her blades and Rhoz clicked his claws.

A few of the Black Dogs tried to fight back and failed, Aegeus thrust his spear then twisted it from the Black Dog's gut. Ava cut the legs off one of the Black Dogs whom dare to steal a child's innocent.

Then Ava stabbed her blades into his throat, Rhoz jumped and flipped over his opponents. Slamming his foot underneath one's chin and clawed out another's eyes.

Once they were all dead, Aegeus called for a healer and blankets.


The people thanked the Silver Foxes, Aegeus sat down and held his head. Some of the victims eyes were hollowed even lifeless, Aegeus clenched his teeth "μητέρες, βίασαν αυτούς τους ανθρώπους ακόμη και παιδιά; μπάσταρδοι..." /Translation: Aegeus calling out the Black Dogs on their crimes of rape even towards children as the Black Dogs are bastards/

"Commander" Aegeus shot up his head, "We're about to leave sir, are you alright?"

"Yes I-I am...let's go" Aegeus says then leads the Silver Foxes.

Days turned to Weeks and Weeks to Months, Silver Foxes gather as many information while battling the Black Dogs.

Aegeus sat in his tent holding his head, they have saved as many people as they can but their hollowed out eyes. Aegeus clenched his head as he gripped his hair, he felt as if heat was rising inside of him.

Suddenly Ava pour water on him which cooled him off and surprised him, He looked at her who then held Aegeus close. Aegeus twitched as he wrapped his arms around her, Ava played with Aegeus's hair then kissed his head.


Soon the Silver Foxes returned Ken and Mason, during their reconnaissance mission Rhoz was wounded. Mason welcome them back as he checked on Rhoz, "My friend go back to your people"

"But Master...I can fight" Rhoz wanted to protest, "I'll call upon you when needed again my friend go now back to your home" Rhoz sighed as he saddled a horse and wished his fellow Silver Foxes well.

It was a tearful goodbye since Rhoz was one of the original Silver Foxes, Aegeus hopes to see him again.

Suddenly Aegeus was called to Celestine Lucross herself, Aegeus made his way to the balcony where Celestine awaited.

Aegeus swallowed a lump in his throat then he approached slowly, "Lady Celestine I'm here" Celestine looked at Aegeus as he froze and faintly blushed.

"Sir Aegeus I ask how do you fair?" She asked, "I'm well! I...I'm losing myself those who lost their innocents their eyes are hollowed and lifeless...I can't..."

Celestine held his face gently and made him look into her eyes, "Your strong Aegeus I ask of you to please be strong in these dark moments I ask of you please" Celestine then planted a kiss on his forehead.

Aegeus blushed, "Yes my lady" He says, "Before you go I have a request for the Silver Foxes" "My Goddess?"

Celestine sighed, "Volt and the Black Dogs were tasked with capturing Olga but you already know of the Rebellion so I call upon the Silver Foxes to secure Olga and bring her back to Ken" Aegeus kneeled down "It shall be done my Goddess"

Aegeus took his leave and reported back to Mason.


Mason was shocked but accepted the request, while Rhoz was absent Aegeus was made into his Lieutenant, The Silver Foxes began their march for Garca and the Black Fortress.

For what awaits them is unknown but they'll not surrender nor fail in their request to rescue Olga Discordia.
