Sitting inside the dungeon, Kaden thought about his next plan of action. Thanks to the shenanigans with the Crimson Crusaders, his level was currently lagging behind.
The level of his minions was also lagging behind. They were an important part of his strength. If he let them stagnate then they would eventually get wasted away.
Because of this, he had no other choice except to spend a significant amount of time grinding beasts.
This was a must.
On the other side, his infamy was still rising. Several guilds were hunting him furiously. It looked like a week off was not enough for them to forget about him and his legendary item.
They did not hold back and continued to place bounties on him left and right. In this atmosphere, he decided to remain inside dungeons and peacefully nurture his minions under the alias Ethan Reed.
