Four tasks that would force him to go through significant effort just to keep spending time with Lucretia.
He was not pleased with the requirements but he would get them done to prove that they were not enough to make him leave.
Each task had a problem however.
Firstly the core of a territory king simply meant he had to slay a miniboss located in any territory, he could use a core given by the queen since she was adamant over the individual that gave the task had clearly done so.
The second problem with the quest was that he had to actually travel a bit to find infernal wolves and finding a target he'd be satisfied with was likely to take time.
The third and final problem actually came from the council's own quest.
Execution of a kingdom's leader would be incredibly difficult no matter what he did so he would have to get creative with his skills there.
