When Asa realized he was being asked to search for a monster in a thousand-year-old dung heap, he flatly refused.

"I am the great evil spirit, the witness of extinguished flames, the spokesperson of darkness, and the supreme ruler of the coming Dark Age. I will never dive into a dung heap!"

Rode was surprised, "Weren't you desperately craving the power of the King of Devouring Excrement before? Why are you afraid of dung now?"

If Asa still had flesh on his face, it would be redder than a beet right now.
