Adrian is not that happy with the notifications as he got more undeserved attention. He knew that doing something for a god is not a task that will go unnoticed, but he is basically being watched by gods that either hate or are neutral against him. He is a bit thankful that they cannot peer into the lower realm unless they use the eyes of their followers.
The only gods that can peer through the lower realm are the Primordial Gods and the Gods of Death when in their area of work. Adrian is still invisible to the eyes of the other gods, but he needs to be careful when there are other followers around. He knows that he will be monitored as long as he sticks to big crowds.
The strange thing is that the Dark Gods that he thought would be mad at him were being neutral while the Devil Gods are expressing great interest in him. The gods that are wary of him are from a certain faction that he already knows.
"You have completed the formation as you have promised. This means that I also must keep my promise and give you the Sun Stone." The God Agni stated as he manifested a small avatar in the lower realm.
Adrian is slightly shocked as the avatar that the God Agni used is not the demigod body but a body of a lesser god. This should be impossible, but he knew that the magic formation is very powerful. It can actually let the God Agni manifest a truly divine body in the mortal realm despite its restrictions.
Adrian inspected the city and learned that the rules of the world are being weakened due to the formation. He knew that the effect would be different since he used the demigod body of the God Agni but the effects were scary even for him. The lesser god body of the God Agni looked almost the same as his demigod body but he is now wearing clothing created with divine energy.
The God Agni took the Sun Stone that is placed on top of the highest pyramid structure and gave it to Adrian. He then looked quite happy as he can now manifest a truly divine body in the mortal realm even though it is restricted to this city. He now has a divine domain in the mortal realm where he could exercise his power freely to protect his followers.
"Can you also let them go then?" Adrian stated as he pointed towards the members of the Briar Rose guild and Frey.
"The exchange is only for the Sun Stone and not the lives of the trespassers. Freeing them is another matter entirely as they did hurt some of my people." The God Agni stated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"You already punished them and shaming them for quite a while now. Can you not do it as a favor for me?" Adrian asked as he did not want to leave the people that helped him in getting the Sun Stones.
"No. Even if it is you that is asking. They should be punished for one more month for me to be satisfied." The God Agni stated.
"What is it going to take then?" Adrian asked as he knows that the God Agni is not letting them go because of something.
"I am quite curious to see how much power I can muster in the mortal realm using my divine body. I want you to engage in a fight with me to see the limits of my abilities." The God Agni stated as a quest suddenly appeared before Adrian.
Sudden Quest Notification!
Quest Name: Help Me See My Limits

Duration: 1 day

Adrian saw the quest difficulty and it is A tier which means it is a quest that he can die if not careful. The God of Fire is also very excited which means he might actually die in the first minute. Still, he is wondering why the tier is A when he is going against an actual lesser god. The quest should be S tier instead of A tier as that is the difficulty of going against a god.
"I am not that insensitive, Champion Equinox. I know that it is too much for you to go against me with a lesser god avatar which is why they would help you." The God Agni stated as Frey and the members of Briar Rose were freed from their captivity.
"All of you are given a chance to be set free. Entertain me for 10 minutes and you all shall me able to walk away without any grudges held. You should know that I am quite a generous god that will forgive trespassers even if they did hurt my people." The God Agni stated.
In truth, Frey and the members of the Briar Rose guild were not even able to easily fight back against them. They were captured because this city actually holds three demigod warriors which included the God Agni when he was a demigod. Even if the God Agni was not here, there are still two warriors that are equivalent to demigods here.
The one that was able to escape told them this information which is why Adrian already knows that the God Agni was just blowing things out of proportion. They were able to fight back but they only lasted an hour before their crushing defeat. Adrian actually thought that they were able to hold out quite well despite being outclassed by a large degree.
"We accept!" Frey replied as she knew that the humiliation that they suffered must at least be minimized.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe spirits of her team members were a bit broken due to their lost. She also wanted to see what she could do better as she realized her faults earlier. She used the time that she was in captivity to review the footage of her battle with three demigods. She is also quite confident that they will clear this mission as Equinox was with them.
"Let me talk to them first then. We do not want to be disorderly when fighting against you." Adrian stated.
"Be my guest. You have five minutes to discuss your battle plan as I am a gracious god." The God Agni stated with great exaggeration.
"Thank you for saving us." Frey stated and all the members of the Briar Rose guild followed her words.
"Do not thank me yet because I have not saved all of you at this moment. We still have one more trial for the freedom that you guys need to get. We need to last against the God Agni for ten minutes." Adrian stated.
"Lasting ten minutes would be easy then. We managed to last an hour against three demigods and twenty warriors below that rank. With you helping us then ten minutes will be a breeze." Frey stated as she is quite confident, but Adrian frowned.
"I can only muster 80% of my health and mana which means I am also a liability in this quest. Also, we are fighting a lesser god which is vastly different than a demigod. We might be lucky to even survive for five minutes at most. That is what I predicted from the data from the previous fights that we had." Adrian stated.
"I can extend that to seven minutes as I did get more powerful compared to our last fight. The only problem is that it would be unpredictable." Frey stated.
"Do not worry because we will gladly sacrifice our lives should any of the two of you be brought to danger." A member of the Briar Rose guild stated.
"I shall do that as well." Another member stated which resonated with the rest.
It takes a lot of selfless admittance that you are not good enough to go against another being. The top guilds are often filled with individuals with great egos as they often fight people that are not on par with them. It seems that the Briar Rose guild members know that their only chance of winning would be to have Frey and Equinox be the last ones standing.
"If push comes to shove then I would do everything in my power to help them. I am the one responsible for sending them here." Adrian thought to himself.
