System vs Rebirth

Before crossing the bridge, the two captains gathered the entire group.

"Alright. I think you have understood your own role. Although we are late by more than two hours, we still have to continue this mission." Captain Faust informed them while pointing at the bridge. "There is a possibility that this is a trap. So, I want the Demon Beholder Squad to be more careful than usual. Check every corner and make sure there aren't any traps that will give us disadvantages."

"The Demon Relief Squad will remain in the rear for the time being. After we have secured the area, you will enter the village. The Demon Hunting Squad and the Demon Barrier Squad will be following you right behind, ready to help in case something happens."

"Don't forget that Creek Village is suspected to be a branch of the Supreme Devil Organization. From our understanding, every branch has at least several Devil Bishops. That's why there are two captains here."

"Once we cross the bridge, the plan will start. Is there any objection?" Faust looked around, but no one raised their hand.

He pulled the bow on his back while commanding, "Onward."

Igor also raised his head, looking at the mountain. The steep mountain would be treacherous terrain for them to hunt. In fact, the terrain alone was enough to make this Creek Village a natural fortress.

However, the original village was never built for that purpose. The Supreme Devil Organization might have realized the potential of this village and used it for themselves.

Unfortunately, they couldn't discern the true reason why the Supreme Devil Organization used this place. All they could do was be careful.

Noel looked around. He had seen the Vice Captain of the Demon Beholder Squad in the past. But this was the first time he saw their Zero Squad. Meanwhile, the Demon Hunting Squad didn't bring their Zero Squad.

Captain, they would deploy the Zero Squad to make up the firepower. But if the captain was the one leading them personally, they would only bring their First Squad. It was proven when Noel saw the same figure who talked to them when they tried to relieve the Demon Barrier Squad
