Bluepool chose to take the risk in consideration of An'an's health. Alas, his gamble turned out badly, and Harvey ultimately told others about them.
However, he merely told the single young males with the strongest potential in the City of Beastmen. These beastmen had at least two animal stripes, and there was even a slightly older three-striped beastman amongst them.
When Harvey led the group of males into the stone castle, Bluepool wasn't surprised. He merely put up a defensive stance and blocked them outside the door.
Harvey said, "Anyone has the right to pursue An'an. It's just that your situation is unique, so I only told the young beastmen with the greatest potential in the City of Beastmen. If you defeat all of them, I have nothing more to say."
"Thanks, Harvey."
The males brought here by Harvey looked at the merman with an excited look in their eyes, burning with eagerness.
