"Child, Welcome to my humble adobe," A serene, calm, and collected voice, its soothing tones echoing in Alex's mind, jolting him awake from his chain of thoughts and making him look around with vigilance.
Alex's first thought was that a Beast King or, worse, a Beast Emperor was inhabiting this place, and after what he had seen, it would be surprising not to find such creatures in this place.
If it was Beast Emperor and he wanted him gone, Alex would take help from his guardians, but if not, he would deal with things on his own because he was very clear about the role of guardians.
The Guardians were present to save him from permanent death and guide him, which was why Alex only took their guidance and advice and did not abuse their powers, even though he was certain they wouldn't deny his requests.
