At the moment, Eric considered as a true danger to his future only Master Takeshiba, Master Yoshida, and the Council of 5.
Everyone else was just a nobody in his eyes! While they could create him a little headache, they wouldn't be able to be anything beyond that.
But if he had to go against these three, then he would have to be prepared to lose a leg, or an eye, even though it would grow back later, it would still be a huge loss to him.
So, for the moment he had to be extremely careful when he dealt with these guys, he couldn't allow these foxes to smell something they shouldn't.
With these thoughts in mind, there was no other option available to him besides playing along with his father-in-law and joining the party.
While he was sure that he would certainly create a few obstacles to him in order to test him, at the end of the day he wouldn't allow his family members to take it too far.
