Windmill Manor.
Baron Marcus was complaining to a fat pangolin, "Pang, can't you keep your descendants in check and stop them from burrowing around the manor? If they must dig, let them go dig in Sharp Knife Mountain. Why must they always dig here?!"
This pangolin was his contracted fantasy beast—the Armadillo King, Pang.
As a fantasy beast with the traits of a Beast King, the Armadillo King Pang could naturally command ordinary pangolins.
However, Pang paid no attention to Marcus and just kept on digging holes in the courtyard, which was its favorite thing to do.
Marcus felt helpless.
Pang was the second fantasy beast he had contracted, and perhaps due to his limited talent or a mismatch in compatibility, he had not been able to perfectly synchronize with Pang. As a result, he had also been unable to advance to a Third-layer High-ranking Mythical Beast Knight.
