Chapter 171: War (13)



"All the people here apparently were killed or escaped," Rain thought. "I don't even remember the house where I was born… putting that aside, maybe I should develop a technique to let me meditate and sleep at the same time."

Rain tried to meditate while he was lying down, and while the skill was working, it wasn't at full power… maybe it was because he was too relaxed and unfocused. Regardless, it didn't take long for him to fall asleep.

Rain had planned to sleep for as long as he could, but in the end, he woke up when it started to get cold and dark outside. He got up and left the house, only to see everyone working on making campfires and torches.

"I guess around three hours have passed," Rain thought while looking around. "Where is everyone?"

It has been a while since Rain ate anything as well, so he was starving. While he has some jerk on his backpack, he wants something more filling and tasty to raise his spirits. Still, he just warned a piece of jerk by a campfire nearby, and then Rain moved to the wall.

While he was walking, Rain noticed that a lot of mercenaries were looking at him. Rain didn't want to say that he was that famous, but those people should have seen him more than a few times in the organization.

"I guess I stood out too much today," Rain thought.

When Rain reached the top of the walls, he saw the enemy's camp in the distance. It was massive, even though it only had one-third of its total size. There were numerous bonfires around to make sure that they wouldn't be surprised by ambushers… they looked a lot more defensive than Rain had expected.

"You sure showed something crazy today," Cor suddenly approached and then said.

"White mustache…" Rain said while furrowing his eyebrows and trying to recall his name.

"You call me that in your head?" Cor asked.

"You are… Coral. No, Corel," Rain said. "Wait, it is Cornelius."

"... You have a weird sense of humor," Cor said after a long sigh. "Our boss is taking with the commander, and your friends are guarding him."

"I see… how the other sides fared today?" Rain asked.

"A bit worse than us, considering that our odds were the worst," Cor replied. "They tried to do the same things on all sides for some reason, and The commander made them pay the price for it. It looked like he had been expecting how they would start their attacks and used that chance to make the first battalions on the enemies side be annihilated."

It didn't look like many people knew about the hollow point in the walls, but that was for the best. In any case, Rain wanted to ask about their losses on all fronts, but he didn't want to dampen the mood.

"Hehehe, this path is really the best… I am only at level twenty-five, and I already have two passive skills that increase my parameters," Rain thought. "Training and fighting will make them level up as well, so I really can't complain."

Rain still needed some time to rest, but the excitement was making him forget all that. Around three hours later, after sunset, Branden and the others showed up. The meeting that they had had been a pretty long one; it was also weird since everyone knew that the enemies could attack at night.

"I thought that you would use these moments of peace to rest…" Branden said and then facepalmed. "We still have a long war ahead of us, so you really need to rest. Our message shouldn't have arrived in Tristan yet, so we probably will have to hold the fort for five more days at the very least."

"What else?" Rain asked.

"I would dare say that we won on the first day, but the enemies have tricks up their sleeve, so Revan wants to play defensively no matter the cost."

"That might not end well for us; long range is the name of their game," Rain furrowed his eyebrows. "They also should have a lot more mana than us, so we might lose a lot and only gain some time at the cost of many lives."

"He is aware of that, but he believes that it is a necessary sacrifice," Branden said.

"We won today, so the enemies will try to play safe for a while, and that is where we can compensate for it," Asche said.

"The commander is going to send one hundred royal guards and the groups that they lead as well, so we will have the reinforcements of eleven hundred men, so it isn't all bad news," Jori said.
