I Can Make Everything Level UP

The next day, Billy shared his insight about how things would change on the battlefield after such a victory. Naturally, it would be a pain just to inform Jean and the captains he knew, so he did so when Jean called all the leaders. Some of the Captains didn't like a kid, even someone who helped their state so much to offer their opinion, but they didn't voice it.

"I believe that the enemies will try to attack either the easter side or the southern side of the wall," Billy said. "I sealed the exit of the tunnels on the other side, but they still will be wary of those. So, their all-out attack will come from either of those positions, and they will use more of the beast tamers and their beasts today. Probably all of them in order to surprise us."

"I suppose that makes sense, considering the mobility and power of their beasts, we need to put our men in the right places," Jean said.

And that was the problem. They had to make a bet, a risky one. There was also the chance that the enemies might split the monsters into two groups to attack both locations at the same time, but they probably would take some risks as well in order to make the gates fall that very same day. Wars are won like that by making bets and trying to predict the enemies' moves, but no one has the nerve to say which place they think the soldiers should be mobilized to.

"It is useless to think about this. The enemies will see our troops moving outside and then attack the other location," Jean said. "We will have to outsmart them even further… We will leave the eastern gate open."

The captains frowned and began to murmur among them. They could understand what Jean was planning. By leaving the gates open, they would make the enemies think that most of their forces were there. Still, that would be insane. To open the gates to let some soldiers leave and join the fight was something, but then to leave it open for no reason was madness. However, Jean never said that his soldiers would be moved there, and then he also said something else that made them even more surprised.

"Hehe, this will be fun," Billy thought while he was returning to his friends in order to tell them their orders.

When the scouts on the attacker's side appeared to check things on the dungeon town, they frowned after looking to the eastern gate. They put five thousand soldiers there, but they left the path to the gate wide open in order to let them see that it was open. Even for a trap that was going too far… it was too obvious, after all.

They checked the northern and southern gate as well, and things on the northern gate were rather quiet. Aside from the archers, the recruits, and adventurers, the number of defenders there was just too small. Some soldiers were in the south, but their numbers didn't number the one thousand mark. It was clear that they had more soldiers hidden nearby the eastern gate. After reporting that to their commanders, those two issued their orders…

As Billy and everyone else had expected, it took a few hours for the enemies to move. Their monsters were probably hidden beyond the camps, so they had to move those properly to attack the correct side. In the end, just as Jean had expected, they came from the southern side.

"They are stronger than before…" Billy muttered when he saw thousands of those monsters dashing toward the southern side of the wall.

"How can you tell?" Kate asked.

"Eh… Just a gut feeling," Billy said after realizing that he was thinking too loudly. "Their tamers are also coming from behind."

The monsters and the tamers were raising quite the dust cloud… Nevertheless, around two thousand were dashing toward that side of the town, but two thousand more were behind and transporting the tamers. It would be really troublesome if they sent the third wave to that side, even though Jean had predicted that they would attack from there and mobilized the best troops to face the monsters: the adventurers.

They appeared above the walls, and while some of them jumped from it and landed on the ground like nothing had happened, others decided to use ropes. Thanks to that, before the first group of enemies could arrive and attack, five lines of adventurers had already assumed their positions, but instead of forming a usual line of five hundred men, they split into groups of six. While that was a war, at that moment, they were going to hunt monsters. Hence, they split up into their usual parties.

"Hehe, it has been a while since we did this together, huh," Alexander said while smirking due to the excitement. "I miss the days where he just explored dungeons without caring about anything else."

"Since that is the case, then let's make sure that those guys won't bother us anymore. That way, we will be able to do that again," Billy said.

"You talk as if it is easy," Alexander said.

"It is, I will show you," Billy said, and then his party saw some monsters targeting them.

Billy, Alexander, and Natalie dashed as they were the frontline, and Kate, Lily, and Sarah approached at their own pace to cover them.. The other parties decided to play it safe, and they targeted those huge monsters as a group, but Billy decided to kill one of them by himself.
