In a low-lying area of the East Blue, Kinkaku finally found a decent demon with some strength.
Kinkaku whispered a few words into the demon's ear. After hearing them, the demon's face lit up with delight.
"The Fourth Princess? Really?" the demon cried.
"Of course. I'll help you, but you'd better not reveal anything about me. Otherwise, your soul will be scattered and destroyed!" Kinkaku said coldly.
"Yes!"
The demon led his subordinates, following Kinkaku to the Dragon Palace.
"Wait for me. Once I lure the Fourth Princess out, you can prepare to act," Kinkaku said. "But remember, before I give permission, you are forbidden from touching even a single hair on the Fourth Princess. Otherwise, I'll destroy you all at once!"
"Yes, yes, yes." The demon also knew how formidable Kinkaku was.
The Fourth Princess was sitting around in boredom when she saw Kinkaku appear.
"Little brother, why have you come back again?" the Fourth Princess asked in surprise.
Yet Kinkaku said nothing. He merely glanced at her before quickly leaving. Feeling puzzled, the Fourth Princess chased after him.
When she reached the outside, she fell into an ambush. A group of demons captured her and took her away into the distance.
Kinkaku shook his head helplessly. He originally had not needed to follow them, but he went anyway. The Fourth Princess had treated him well, so he needed to keep an eye on things in case something happened.
Kinkaku followed them to the demon cave and had them lock up the Fourth Princess first, telling them not to make any moves for the time being.
Then, Kinkaku secretly sent a message to his master, informing him that the task had been completed.
He did not understand why his master wanted this done.
