Adrian did not immediately show himself to the ones he rescued. He is definitely upset though because the rewards for killing the boss NPC was unsatisfactory. The only thing that is worth something is the spear that the boss NPC dropped.

This is the only decent item that Adrian could get despite cleaning up hundreds of bandits. The other things that he received are just experience points and some pocket change. Then again, bandits do not really carry money with them which is the reason for the small money drops.

"If I knew that I will just get this much then I would have not helped at all. Selling this pear will only just return me in five hundred or so gold coins. I wish I am lucky and encounter a golden goblin." Adrian muttered to himself.

The golden goblin is a special monster that is said to have the ability o breach other dimensions. Another interesting fact about it would be that it is a hoarder of precious items. It is actually timid and would run away when attacked but it is actually very high leveled in reality.

There is one encounter of a golden goblin which made one player become extremely powerful. The player managed to surprise the golden goblin and it dropped a job change scroll when it went to flee. The one who got it is currently the number two mage in the rankings.

"Master, what should we do with them?" Sirius asked as he eyed the broken carriage and the guards that surrounded it.

"They seem to be guarding someone important. They are releasing an intense amount of bloodlust against us despite being the ones that helped them." Kanlaon stated as he hovered just above the carriage.

"I am hungry." Kimat stated which made Sirius give him a serious look.

Adrian is debating whether to show himself or just abruptly disappear. He decided the latter as he did not want to keep Peridot waiting. He is about to leave when the girl from the Heihudie Clan suddenly shouted.

"Benefactor, may we know your name and face? Our lady wants to thank you personally." The girl from the Heihudie Clan shouted despite the guards telling her that it is not a great idea.

Adrian pondered as he too became curious of the noble lady that they are guarding. To be able to cure everything with just one sound would mean that she is the most powerful bard in this game.

"I should at least introduce myself. Who knowsthey might even give me a reward in exchange for helping them? A noble lady should have lots of spending power since their fathers tend to spoil them.

"Mistress Fei, you should not provoke that person. That person has a great beast by his side." One of the guards stated as he looked at Kanlaon looking down on them from above.

"Benefactor! Are you there?!" Fei stated out loud as her friend that she accompanied dressed as a servant wanted to see the one who helped them in their time of need.

Scenes like banditry and death is not uncommon in the eastern continent. You could even say that there are more deaths in the eastern continent than the central continent due to constant power struggles of sects.

Adrian did not want to just easily show himself as he wanted to test if these individuals could be trusted. He sent the spear flying down towards Fei, but she did not even try to dodge. The guards did not react fast enough, but Fei was not in danger as the spear landed about an inch from her body.

"I see. You are really from that clan then. I should not have doubted my eyes when I saw your special mark." Adrian stated as his spear dematerialized, and he returned to his normal appearance.

"Demon!" The guards reacted but Fei told them to stand their ground.

Adrian remained floating in mid-air using his wings, but Kanlaon offered his head, so Adrian unfurled his wings and lay on top of his dragon's head lazily. Fei wanted to question Adrian why he could see her special butterfly mark as only those of the Heihudie clan or special guests of the clan can see them, but she decided to stay quiet.

The guards immediately knew that from seeing the dragon being absolutely tame in front of the demon that he was the one who helped them. They heard of rumors that the Vermillion Bird that just got revived was friends with a demon, but they never believed it as rumors are just rumors.

"Are you our benefactor that helped us? Can we ask, why? I am only asking as people of this continent do not necessarily offer help so easily and usually turn a blind eye." Fei asked Adrian with a serious tone.

"Nothing. I just helped you guys because those bandits were on my way. There is nothing special about it." Adrian stated but he made a silhouette of a butterfly using mana to hint at Fei on why he helped them.

"If that is so then my friend would like to give her appreciation." Fei stated as a hooded figure came out of the broken carriage.

The guards all bowed and unanimously stated her title, "The Mistress of Sound, Yinyue."
