"And, that's how it is… any questions?" Theo finished his explanation.

All of their eyes were still sticking to the map Theo presented, wondering if it was possible to use Theo's tactic or not.

Spencer and Yesenia first talked to each other first, discussing a few things to check it. Kayla was a hot-blooded commander, so she simply saw the plan about her alone instead of matching the others, thinking this was a perfect time for her name to echo inside the base.

Nicholas, on the other hand, raised his hand and asked, "I'm not sure about one thing. Since we're utilizing the terrain, we will have a hard time moving our machinery. So, we might need a bit more time to follow your order."

"No, you can position them a bit farther away if you think it's not safe. As long as they will reach the vanguard, that's enough."

"I see. In that case, I'll move back half a mile. Still, my boys won't be able to participate in the battle this time, considering we're stationed in the rear…"

"Yours will be our reserve army. This battle might be the toughest one you have faced so far, so I know your reserve army will be needed."

"I see. If that's the case, we'll conserve our stamina as much as possible so that when the others are tired, we can unleash all our might to push the enemies back."

Theo nodded and glanced at Haivan, who seemed to have something to say. "What's wrong?"

"Ehm, I'm still not sure about my position. It looks like I'm stationed in the middle… Why is that? Unlike the reserve army, mine should be strong enough to become a vanguard… no, they should be the ones chosen as vanguards."

"Don't worry. I told you earlier that I have a separate plan for you, right?"

"Yes."

"That's how it is. For now, wait until the rest agree with the plan."

"I understand." Haivan nodded with a confused look, trying to figure out what the separate plan was.

After a while, Yesenia and Spencer confirmed. "Sir. I believe we can do it as long as we get help from Kayla. Most of her army consists of fighters and knights, so she should be able to help us push the monsters away so that we can catch our breath. We'll repeat that process until we kill all the enemies."

"What do you think?" Theo asked Kayla with a serious expression since her role would be crucial for those two.

Kayla nodded. "I'll cooperate with them."

"Good. Since we've agreed to the plan, let's end the meeting here." Theo waved his hand, dismissing them. "Haivan. Stay here."

Since Theo and Haivan wanted to chat privately, they exchanged looks among themselves before leaving the room.

After observing Theo for a while, Kayla couldn't help but mutter, "Is that it? I have heard about his reputation. Although his plan is good and solid, I don't see anything special in it."

"That's true. I can understand why he is the War Saint's grandson, but I still expect a mind-blowing plan."

They were discussing how Theo didn't seem to be as they expected. They didn't know that the reason why Haivan stayed with Theo was to spice the plan up.

"So, what do you need from me, Sir?" Haivan asked.

"What if I told you the enemies this time might look like the normal enemies, but that was just on the surface."

"If we're talking about the current enemies, I believe there will only be monsters living near the volcano. While they're at it, they'll go to the base instead of any other place, so I don't see anything beyond those monsters."

Theo shook his head. "Our enemies this time aren't those beasts."

"Huh? If they're not our enemies, then what are they?"

"They're just baits whose purpose is solely to exhaust us. Meanwhile, the real enemies will appear after them, probably one or two days after the first attack."

"Who are our real enemies, Sir?"

"Plants."

"Plants?!" Haivan was confused. Although he had seen a lot of plant monsters in the past, he believed their population wasn't as good as the beasts. After all, plans had a hard time evolving into a mobile monster like a beast.

However, Theo could see the problem coming from the plants. He said, "Just trust me this time. The plan's success or failure will depend on whether you believe me or not.

"It might sound weird to you, but I want you to send a thousand men to the front, spreading them all over the area.

"Tell them to use a smoke signal to inform the movements of the plants. I'm pretty sure they're going to see moving plants, so after sending the signal, they're to retreat as far as possible before regrouping with your army."

"That's…" Haivan was still unsure about this enemy. The plants might be monsters, but they would have a hard time moving around the area. So, he couldn't understand why plants would be the greatest threat in this battle.

But Theo directly said that the plan's success and failure would depend on whether he trusted him or not.

"To be honest, I can't trust you completely since it's too ridiculous that the plants are going to be our greatest enemy this time. Though, in the military, you have to complete the order of your superior…" Haivan signaled to him that he would blindly trust him as long as he gave the order.

And Theo didn't hesitate to order him. "Then, I order you to send one thousand men forward and spread them on the battlefield."

"Yes, Sir!" Haivan saluted.

Theo then waved his hand, dismissing him. When he was alone, a female's voice echoed in his ears.

"Well, that's the plan you give to the military. I think the plan that you haven't told anyone yet is crazier… Do you mind telling me about it, considering I won't be appearing on the battlefield?"

Theo glanced at her. The female's voice came from none other than another Saint, the Mafia Queen.

Theo thought for a moment and said playfully, "You can guess."

"Tsk. Cheapskate."
