"men! prepare your skills!!"

-whuung-

They aimed at the enemies in front of them.

[FIREBALL II]

[DARK MIST I]

-whuss-

Skills and arrows were flying toward their direction. Yana raised his knife.

(from now on, do exactly just like i say)

They nodded.

"men! focus! next row prepare support for the front row!!"

"sir!"

-dharr-

Some of the soldier's attack already reached them yet Yana and the other kept running.

"they make a formation... Men! Square formation in the center! two arrow formations at the rear!"

"yes sir!"

-drap-

-drap-

The soldiers moved and formed the formation. The rest in the back also spread in order to give support with projectiles or ranged skill.

Yana looked at his surrounding. No one had doubt or fear expression on their face.

He knew that's because of their faith on him. As their savior.... as their Furr'dhad.

"-fuuh- based on their movement.. their pace.. the possible choice is.."

He smiled.

(let's try it)

Yana let his thought through the telepathy.

(sir Yana?)

(I'm sorry Shanti, I'm just talking to myself)

(don't mind me sir Yana. I thought I missed some instructions when you said that)

-dharr-

One of the attack almost got them. They were totally in their enemy range attack now.

(listen to me, to most basic strategy when we face this kind of numbers, we need to kill their leader first)

(you mean, the one who shout and tell them what formation and skill that they need to use savior?)

(exactly Ragha. without spesific command, this large group of soldiers wouldn't able to execute their attack effectively)

(i see .. because one wrong move and they can harm their own comrade with their skill) Ragha nodded

(so you already identified those leaders Yana?)

(yes Iris. To able give their command correctly, they need to be in the right position)

(that means....)

(that man who is slightly behind them) Shanti replied

(and the other two near him) Ragha responded

(i understand that, but... how will we pass the soldiers?) Iris wondered

(we will spread. That will limit their option)

Iris wanted to ask why it would limit their option but she decided to save her question. They must focused and optimized their time.

(Shanti, Ragha, i believe both of you can take care their leaders who is behind the right and left troops?)

(yes sir Yana)

(yes savior)

They instantly replied and there's no doubt in their intonation. It really made sense with all of things that happened to them since they entered this city. Those experiences made them understand...what they were capable to do...and what their enemies were capable to do....to them.

(Yana?! are you sure they can make it?! they will face more than one hundred soldiers!)

(don't worry Iris, like i said.. they have fulfilled their role magnificently) He smiled

"swords come foward!! give distance to the ranger!"

"sir!"

The group captain made that decision after he saw their enemies were entering their attack range.

(Shanti, you take on the left, Ragha you on the right. Kill their leader as fast as you can, then take down some of the soldiers)

(shouldn't we kill all of them savior?)

Iris couldn't believe with what she heard just now. No matter how strong Half-beast tribe was, there's impossible to take down all of those soldiers. Was that just purely overconfident?

(not now, it is not the right timing. After both of you successfully do that, we gather at my position)

(understood savior)

Ragha and Shanti nodded and activated their beast mode.

(don't worry, I'll give my support as much as i can)

Yana raised his knife and accelerated his pace. Iris was following him with so many questions in her head.

(then.. by the protection of our beast god ROGNIR)

He took a deep breath.

(from earth to earth)

(from earth to earth!) Shanti and Ragha replied

-dharr-

They spread and headed toward their target. Iris closed her eyes and prayed for their safety.

(by the protection of our wisdom god RATHIEL... guide us with your light)

Looking their enemies spreading, the soldiers in the front row asked for further instruction from their captain.

"sir, they are spreading. How will we distribute our forces?"

Their middle formation consisted of two hundred soldiers. They wondered if all of them was needed to kill two enemies in front of them.

"keep your formation! kill them as fast as you can! there's only one of them to face our one hundred soldiers! dividing our number is not necessary!"

"understood sir!"

Yana smiled when he looked at them.

"keep their formation.. then this is not the worst scenario"

(Iris, take some distance from me so you won't get hit..)

"haaaa!"

-zriing-

One thrust to his head but Yana evaded that swiftly

-zreeb-

One stab to the soldier's neck. No one could react to that.

-buugh-

Yana pushed his enemy's body aside and stabbed the next soldier behind it.

-zreeb-

Another enemy was down. With Yana infiltrating their formation, they couldn't carelessly move.

Iris was lost of her words whe she saw what was happening in front of her.
