Using the generals so soon would be a bold move. They only had three on their sides, so each one was leading a different army. If they die, the army on that side will be reduced to a mob, and dealing with them will be a lot easier. Chain of command wouldn't help the enemies when their morale drops to the very bottom, after all.
In any case, Rain was quite tired since he spent the night working and had to get hurt a lot more to finish the tunnel that day… in the end, he found an empty house nearby where he used his backpack to rest his head.
"All the people here apparently were killed or escaped," Rain thought. "I don't even rember the house where I was born… putting that aside, maybe I should develop a technique to let ditate and sleep at the sa ti."
Rain tried to ditate while he was lying down, and while the skill was working, it wasn't at full power… maybe it was because he was too relaxed and unfocused. Regardless, it didn't take long for him to fall asleep.
Rain had planned to sleep for as long as he could, but in the end, he woke up when it started to get cold and dark outside. He got up and left the house, only to see everyone working on making campfires and torches.
"I guess around three hours have passed," Rain thought while looking around. "Where is everyone?"
It has been a while since Rain ate anything as well, so he was starving. While he has so jerk on his backpack, he wants sothing more filling and tasty to raise his spirits. Still, he just warned a piece of jerk by a campfire nearby, and then Rain moved to the wall.
While he was walking, Rain noticed that a lot of rcenaries were looking at him. Rain didn't want to say that he was that famous, but those people should have seen him more than a few tis in the organization.
"I guess I stood out too much today," Rain thought.
When Rain reached the top of the walls, he saw the enemy's camp in the distance. It was massive, even though it only had one-third of its total size. There were nurous bonfires around to make sure that they wouldn't be surprised by ambushers… they looked a lot more defensive than Rain had expected.
"You sure showed sothing crazy today," Cor suddenly approached and then said.
"White mustache…" Rain said while furrowing his eyebrows and trying to recall his na.
"You call that in your head?" Cor asked.
"You are… Coral. No, Corel," Rain said. "Wait, it is Cornelius."
"... You have a weird sense of humor," Cor said after a long sigh. "Our boss is taking with the commander, and your friends are guarding him."
"I see… how the other sides fared today?" Rain asked.
"A bit worse than us, considering that our odds were the worst," Cor replied. "They tried to do the sa things on all sides for so reason, and The commander made them pay the price for it. It looked like he had been expecting how they would start their attacks and used that chance to make the first battalions on the enemies side be annihilated."
It didn't look like many people knew about the hollow point in the walls, but that was for the best. In any case, Rain wanted to ask about their losses on all fronts, but he didn't want to dampen the mood.

"Hehehe, this path is really the best… I am only at level twenty-five, and I already have two passive skills that increase my paraters," Rain thought. "Training and fighting will make them level up as well, so I really can't complain."
Rain still needed so ti to rest, but the excitent was making him forget all that. Around three hours later, after sunset, Branden and the others showed up. The eting that they had had been a pretty long one; it was also weird since everyone knew that the enemies could attack at night.
"I thought that you would use these monts of peace to rest…" Branden said and then facepald. "We still have a long war ahead of us, so you really need to rest. Our ssage shouldn't have arrived in Tristan yet, so we probably will have to hold the fort for five more days at the very least."
"What else?" Rain asked.
"I would dare say that we won on the first day, but the enemies have tricks up their sleeve, so Revan wants to play defensively no matter the cost."
"That might not end well for us; long range is the na of their ga," Rain furrowed his eyebrows. "They also should have a lot more mana than us, so we might lose a lot and only gain so ti at the cost of many lives."
"He is aware of that, but he believes that it is a necessary sacrifice," Branden said.
"We won today, so the enemies will try to play safe for a while, and that is where we can compensate for it," Asche said.
"The commander is going to send one hundred royal guards and the groups that they lead as well, so we will have the reinforcents of eleven hundred n, so it isn't all bad news," Jori said.
