While the group was resting, Rain was walking around the walls, watching the golems work. They were reinforcing the walls with everything they found in that camp. Even if it wasn't perfect, it was better than nothing. Thanks to that, Rain had a lot of ti to think about things.
"Elisabetha, how does your power work?" Rain asked. "This effect is to sacrifice all sorts of skills and paraters in exchange for damage against only dragons?"
"I don't know, it is the effect that the others have after calling themselves those cringe nas," Elisabetha asked. "I only wished to kill dragons. Thanks to that, at so point, my strength began to disappear to everything else and reached those high levels when I fought them."
"There shouldn't be any other explanation for all this," Rain said. "Only thinking about sothing wouldn't make the said thing possible. Well, unless your mana is that powerful, and you can bend reality almost completely to your will."
"My mana just did that, changed my powers to focus on a single type of Enemy, it didn't bend reality, it just changed and that is a lot more simple," Elisabetha said.
Rain stopped to think about that for a second… in the end, he couldn't follow that path. He couldn't focus on a single type of enemy since he didn't even know who his final enemy would be. The dragon god was one of the top candidates, but it wasn't enough to focus solely on him. It was actually quite dangerous.
In any case, Rain thought that he could trade so of his power for the knowledge of the skills and techniques of the sealed enemies, but that wasn't going to happen. It seed that the best option was to keep using the cores until they had enough data about all that.
"I at least can say that these guys are stubborn. If anything, they didn't live for thousands of years only to weak-minded fools," Elisabetha said. "You said to your daughter that you had a plan to break them. What is it?"
"I only said that to look cool and reassure her," Rain said.
"Figures," Elisabetha said.
"Well, that was half a lie," Rain said. "I do have an ice in mind that I can use, but it is rather risky."
"How risky exactly?" Elisabetha asked.
"Risky enough to cause a large-scale battle here," Rain said. "Risky enough to give a weapon to all the enemies here and lead to our demise."
"But if it works…" Elisabetha said.
"We will be able to analyze their techniques and knowledge," Rain said. "The only issue is that I want to create a place completely sealed from the outside, and no one will be able to see what it will be done. Seriously, this thod might give the final weapon to all of our enemies."
Rain's decision to withhold specific details about his plan ca from a combination of caution and his awareness of potential complications. He knew that sharing so details could lead to misunderstandings or disagreents among the group, especially considering the diverse personalities and perspectives within the team.
Elisabetha, having spent a significant amount of ti around Rain, had a good sense of his unorthodox thinking and unconventional strategies. While she might have had so ideas about what his plan could involve, Rain's eccentric approach to problem-solving often surprised even those who thought they knew him well.
Rain's inclination to keep the details vague wasn't just about maintaining an air of mystery or looking cool; it was a deliberate choice to avoid unnecessary conflicts and ensure that everyone stayed focused on the imdiate tasks at hand. His plans were typically intricate, involving various elents that might sound absurd at first but had proven effective in the past.
"I am planning to put that plan in action in one week or before if sothing happens to our group along the way," Rain said. "Can't let anyone die thanks to my hesitation."
Rain was in a hurry, too… he couldn't let his first grandkid be born in such a hellhole. In order to make sure that Sealyn and her kid would be fine, Rain was willing to show the cores a hell that words couldn't describe. So people say that there are worse things than death, and Rain was planning to make them experience that.
In any case, when the group woke up, Reca joined them, and then they began to plan their next mission. So of the enemies were a bit far away now, but they were the lord of the zombies, sli doppelgangers, death knights, and giant lizards. In theory, they are exactly the sa in terms of troublesoness, so it was hard to pick which one of them they should attack.
"According to Arel, all of those enemies are troubleso in their own way, but the giant lizards are easier because they are small in number, and their defenses only rely on their strength," Rain said. "Unlike the other groups who had lived in poisonous swamps, underground caves, and giant cursed cities."
"Can we defeat two of them with our current forces?" Sealyn asked.
"Never fear, with here, yes, we can," Reca said. "You guys pulled off the sa thing without ; why would being with my squad help things be different?"
"... There is the matter of compatibility and the fact that we didn't recover completely from the attack," Rain said. "Aside from that…"
In the end, Sealyn used that chance to explain her condition. Terra and Seara were trying hard to keep their cool in order to keep their squads calm as well, but they were having a hard ti.
"With that in mind, I will fake a support role from here on out with minimal danger," Sealyn declared.
"That is probably for the best," Terra said. "Considering the enemies' bases, it would also probably be better if you were to fight the giant lizards as well. While giving support to whoever goes with you."
