Adrian teleported to the south part of the eastern continent as it was the only location where he is actually welcomed. Thankfully, the hidden ninja village is located in this part of the eastern continent. It was actually the Vermillion Bird that told Adrian about the inhabitants of this hidden village.
The Vermillion Bird has a specific title that lets it see all forms of fire inside his territory which is the reason why it could peer into hidden locations as long fire is used. This title is the Supreme Ruler of Fire title which is the enhanced form of Kanlaon's Ruler of Fire title.
Adrian asked the Vermillion Bird on how to enhance the Ruler of Fire title but even the latter does not know as it already came to have that title upon birth. Adrian also found out that the Vermillion Bird and the other divine beasts came to be due to the faith of the people which is why they are very magnanimous to their followers.
"You best be careful, my dear friend. Despite me being able to see what is going inside their village, I cannot ascertain their strength levels. Seeing as they do not visit me despite my rebirth, it only means that they are confident that they can live without my protection." The Vermillion Bird stated.
"Thank you very much for your help once more. Saena, let us go now. Do not bother the Vermillion Bird too much." Adrian stated as he collected Saena who was snuggling up to the Vermillion Bird as it seemed to remind her of her own mother.
Adrian then used teleport to go near the location of the hidden village. It is located at a mountain with the entrance being a cave hidden by the natural rock formations. The only indication of the actual path of the cave is a small inscription which can only be seen if you are one feet away from it. The first time that Adrian inspected the mountain, he used Sirius to become his eyes and ears.
This time it is Adrian who want to enter the mountain but he needed to be sneaky about it because there are guards at the entrance. The cave entrance might look unguarded but it seems that the real guards are ninjas. From what Adrian collected from the forums, ninja is a second job class advancement which is reported that only one player has obtained.
Since ninjas are a second job class advancement, Adrian became very wary as he might get killed easily with how much attack and speed that a ninja has. The NPCs guarding the village is also about level 150 and they are much more dangerous compared to monsters according to Adrian's point of view. There is a reason why the more intelligent species are more powerful.
"Okay. Time to execute the plan. Let us just hope that it works. Thankfully, it is night time and the shadows are more apparent." Adrian thought as he sealed the rest of his soulbounds except for Sirius.
"Perfect Assimilation!" Adrian stated while putting his right hand on Sirius' head.
Sirius' body then turned into a shadowy silhouette as a magic circle appeared below Adrian. Perfect Assimilation is different from the Common Summoner Skill Book Assimilation because the user will be able to have the skills of the soulbound chosen and use them with 100% effect. The Legendary version of this skill is called Pinnacle Assimilation which also gives the Summoner a 50% stat increase for the duration of the fusion.
Adrian and Sirius' body started to fuse together as Adrian's ears became wolflike. He even had three scar marks on his cheeks which are like whiskers. The most noteworthy thing is that Adrian is physically emitting an aura silhouette of a wolf. He also grown a wolf tail that he can freely wag using his thought.
"Wow! So this is what Sirius could see using his senses." Adrian stated as he marveled with the new world he could see.
Adrian's senses are multiplied by ten and his demon senses are already far more sharp compared to a human. Adrian could even see small details of the ground like the dust. His sense of smell was so sharp that he could smell the scent of another living being a few meters away. His sense of hearing could even pick up the soft tweet of a bird a hundred meters away.
"I better hurry up as I can only maintain this form in under 10 minutes. Shadow Domain: Shadow Walk" Adrian stated as his figure sunk on the ground and became a shadow.
Inside the shadow realm, Adrian could only see black and white. The white part is the location where light shines while the black part is where it is covered in shadows. He would traverse the black path because he does not lose stamina when he walks there because whenever he walks on the white trail would make him lose 1% of his stamina per second.
It did not take long for Adrian to reach the cave entrance of the village and he could smell two different scents that are incredibly hidden. Their scent was not that apparent as well because it was only Sirius' nose that could easily sniff it out.
Adrian then continued on inside the cave entrance and it felt like he did not enter a mountain because a small village was inside. Adrian could not really express the beauty of the village because he can only see it in black and white but one thing stood out that made him shudder a bit.
A mark of a butterfly could be seen marking every building inside the village. There are even children playing which means that they are very confident of the guards stationed at the cave entrance. Adrian could feel that the butterfly insignia is very familiar and it finally hit him.
"Heihudie!" Adrian suddenly shouted which immediately made all the people in the village increase their guard. Even the children playing brought out kunais.
