An Extra’s POV

"Alright! Looks like we got 'em!"

The one who spoke loudly, but quickly realized he was shouting and hushed, was none other than Billy. He was just so excited to see the combo between him, Alicia, and Trisha work.

After the Assault Team was created, the group was further divided into three—for the sake of the plan, of course.

The first was Adonis; who would launch the first strike on the enemy by catching them off-guard. This, he promised, would throw them into a state of confusion and panic, giving them the window of opportunity to strike.

The second team—theirs—was to wait until one of the Dragons pursued Adonis, and the other one went to fetch the falling corpse, before striking the remaining two in the air.

According to Adonis, they were to give it everything they had.

"They're mostly Dragon Commanders, but one of them is a General. It would be difficult taking the General down first, but you guys can kill the Dragon Commander beside her and weaken her as well."

That was their task, and it seemed like they executed it splendidly.

'The third team consists of just Clark, who will find a way to hold down the Dragon who went after the corpse, and we're meant to back him up by ambushing the Dragon, while Adonis takes care of the one that went after him…' Alicia's thoughts trailed.

Once they were done with their tasks, they could finally deal with the wounded Dragon General together.

It was a basic strategy, but considering how they didn't have enough time and more numbers, this was the best route they could take.

Right now, they were hiding at the edge of the forest, some hundred meters close to the Capital's walls. Once they got the signal from Clark, as well as recover some of their Mana, they would jump out and unleash a bombardment of attacks on the Dragon Commander that Clark would be occupied with.

'I'm concerned about him, but….' Alicia thought about Clark Kant, the one on the sole third mission until their intervention.

The idea of only him facing one Dragon Commander by himself was worrying. However…
