Nicholas made an announcement about Lord Sherlock's decision.
The Dungeon Lords praised the power of Eternal Kingdom for fighting the Surface World alone while admonishing Sherlock for being foolish and arrogant.
Everyone knew that the animals on the Surface World could be used to make many products. However, that was only possible if the Surface World monsters were defeated.
Even Michelangelo was unable to conquer the Surface World. Though Lord Sherlock was powerful, he couldn't be more powerful than the Great Devil who was thousands of years old.
Everyone thought Sherlock was overestimating himself.
The Dungeon Lords were willing to accept the agreement. After all, they had no intention to help Eternal Kingdom fight the Surface World. They would prefer that Eternal Kingdom, the Merchant Alliance, and the Devil Management Committee deal with the mess.
