Around the hole was littered by corpses of monsters. Ronny estimated that there were about seventy to ninety-plus corpses around.

They had also noticed the other squads standing on the edge of the hole. Even 'Borg Skybird, the commander for this subjugation mission' was there as well. They had conjectured that the reason for these corpses that were lying around might be because of the commander and his squad.

The commander noticed Ronny's squad and slowly approached them.

Katak-Katak-Katak! The bastard sword that was hanging on his back made a slight scraping noise as he strode towards Ronny and his co.

Ronny and his squad members went to approach the commander as well.

"Looks like you guys performed well in this area!" The commander said after closing the distance.

Ronny and his squad members thought that maybe the commander's words meant as 'them for defending this place and killing some of the monsters.'

After a respectful salute, "We just did what the mission has asked, Commander," Ronny replied honestly.

Hearing his answer, the commander slightly nodded.

"Well, having the Stonehard and Skyblaze family member as your backup, the good result is to be expected. Haha." The commander laughed while patted his left hand on Ronny's left shoulder. Seconds later, the commander's eyes suddenly fixed beyond their back and smiled lightly,

*TUGUDUG!* *TUGUDUG...*

"Looks like the last squad has just arrived. Let's go and plan out our next move," the commander added. The Commander Borg Skybird gestured them to the tent that built not too far from the hole area.

The group glanced at the back and saw the newcomers.

Though Ronny couldn't quite understand about the overreaction of the commander on their success on killing some monsters and defending this area, he ended following the commander's back and stepped towards the tent.

But really, Ronny has estimated that they had killed about 40-50 monsters this noon; however, that just a minimum number and impossible to be the cause of the commander's overreaction.

He was more concerned about the safety of his men than the reward he might get after the mission. Especially, their two members were youngsters, and the other one was his nephew.

When they stepped inside the tent, they were greeted by a crystal lamp that was hanging at the ceiling of the tent and exuding a yellowish light to lighten up the place.

Ronny noted that it was quite spacious inside.

They also noticed the rectangular wooden table in the middle that anyone who saw it could tell that it was made in a hurry based on how it looks; surrounding the lone table was eight shabby-looking chairs. These chairs were for the leaders of every squad.

After taking their seats, they went directly into a light discussion. First, they have talked about the battle that happened this morning, followed by the exchange of information and suggestions from every leader of the squads.

Their discussions were continuing as the night went deeper.

Outside the tent, some soldiers made a bonfire, and there was a large pot that was hung through a tree branch on top of it.

"Lady Hemina!" Mina was strolling outside when she heard a call from behind.
