However, that hope quickly turned into fear and uncertainty.

Clack clack.

They heard horse hooves behind them.

Those hooves sounded like thunder to the allies who were moving forward while remaining as quiet as possible.

There was also a low voice that could be heard in between those ‘thunders.’

“They’re coming.”

It was a single sentence from Bud.

The air around the allies quickly started to fill with tension.

The black Knights Brigade on black horses was approaching them.

They were not coming from only one direction.

The noises were loud as if a tsunami was coming toward them.

It was at that moment.

“A decent level of nervousness is good, but uncertainty is useless.”

Cale Henituse's stern voice pounded into the allies’ ears.

They looked forward.

Slash. Slash.

Choi Han and Hannah were in the front quickly slashing the bushes and branches away as quietly as possible.

However, they could not see far because of the fog.

Plop.

They heard a different voice.

It happened as everybody felt nervous.

“Over here! I can feel the power of the Sun God ov-”

It was an enemy shouting.

It came from the left.

All of them looked toward the left.

They couldn’t see them because of the fog, but they presumed that their enemies were very close.

Shhhhh.

Sorros quickly nocked an arrow and looked toward the direction of the voice.

‘Hmm?’

But something was weird.

He could not hear the enemy’s voice anymore.

The voice had cut off at ‘ov-.’

Cale stopped walking at that moment.

“On. Please clear the fog.”

“Meeeeeow.”

Shaaaaaaa-

The allies could see the fog clearing in front of them within a certain radius.

Highest-grade mage Glenn Poeff clenched his injury and held himself back from laughing.

“…Haha.”

However, he ended up laughing in the end.

He could see fallen enemies all around them.

They were wearing Arm uniforms.

He was certain that some of them were people from the Poeff household who had betrayed them and joined Arm.

Glenn heard one of his fellow mercenary mage's voice.

“…Who did this-”

“Who else? It was the Molan household.”

The reason the enemy who was talking earlier became quiet was most certainly because of the Molan household as well.

Glenn answered as if it was obvious.

“Excuse me? But there is nobody here?”

“That is why it was the Molan household.”

The enemies had fallen but there were no traces of the people who had taken them down.

Nobody was there such that it seemed as if the enemy had been defeated by ghosts.

Cale started to speak at that moment.

“You did well, Ron.”

Someone responded from an empty spot in the fog.

“It wasn't much, young master-nim. There are no hunters who cannot catch their prey when they are completely camouflaged.”
