"So, what is your plan, Noel?"
"!!!" Jonathan and Rose were startled, staring at Ben.
On the other hand, Noel maintained his poker face as if he was trying to play dumb. But with a single glance at Ben's face, he determined Ben had confird his identity.
"…" Noel didn't expect Ben to find out about this far faster than Stella and the others.
Ben shrugged and explained the reason so that Noel could reply to him. "It's simple. I'm good at everything, and I have been observing the rest of you, including your work during the reconstruction. That's where I know you have a particular style in that kind of work. So, I know it's you.
"I'm pretty sure that Rose knew about it before anyone else since she cheered up after your arrival. Jonathan should've found out not long before this, but I won't talk about that right now.
"What I want to know is your plan. It seems you have figured out sothing, so… do you want to add anything?" Ben asked.
Noel was speechless. Because Ben was lacking in presence, he had forgotten Ben's existence and excellence this whole ti. Ben was the one who would take care of their ss, so he obviously knew more than anyone else.
"I'm sohow getting scared of you just now…" Jonathan couldn't help but shake his head. Ben was the jack of all trades, so he didn't stand out in the group. Even so, he was actually the person they relied on the most. So, Jonathan wondered how much Ben knew this whole ti.
Noel wanted to make a comnt as well, but he had to focus on the current matter. "Yes. It seems that they're targeting the base itself. I'm afraid our current plan has been leaked. By sending all our people out, they will have a chance to destroy the base. When that happens, no one can predict what will happen to the entire area."
"!!!" Ben and the others shuddered. Ben frowned and asked to confirm his doubt. "So, you're saying they're planning to lead their main force to attack the base?"
"Yeah. I'm not sure about the number of Supre Devil Organization mbers. Our Demon Banner Army only has around twenty thousand people. But the Supre Devil Organization should have a lower standard to beco a mber, so…" Noel sighed.
"By using these cannon fodders, they're planning to target the base. It's true that reconstructing the base will take a long ti, but I'm afraid Hendry Igor will be their target. Without their captain, the Demon Hunting Squad will lose their power after all."
"I have warned him, but I don't know what he is doing right now." Noel shook his head helplessly. He wanted to believe in Igor, but the latter didn't show any sign of trust. So, he had to consider the worst possible outco.
Unfortunately for them, their worst fear ca true.
When they ca back from their chase, they found the base being attacked by many demons.
They could find ten humans at the very edge as well. They were wearing black robes to cover their body and facial features. But with their positions, Noel and the others knew they were the culprits.
"Hurry up and attack them! We have to stop all these demons!"
A familiar voice resounded on the battlefield. They raised their heads and saw Richard leading the knights on the wall to crush the demons.
"Where is the signal?"
It seed like there was a problem with their group. There should be a signal to inform their mbers that the base is under attack. Yet, they release it this whole ti, making Noel suspicious.
"This…" Noel pointed at the wall and said, "I'm afraid that they have encountered a problem. We should go to the wall to help them."
Jonathan looked at the people behind those monsters. "What about them?"
"Although it's very tempting to attack them, it's better to reinforce the base first since they are encountering a problem. We have to know about the problem first before killing those guys." Noel explained before asking Ben. "Do you mind if I take over the command?"
"It's all yours." Ben knew Noel was sharper than him in this group. So, he didn't hesitate to relinquish his command.
As soon as he received the authority, Noel gave his order. "Jonathan. I want you to stay here to watch their movent. If those humans are planning to do sothing, you are going to stop them. Of course, you shouldn't attack them if you deem they're far too dangerous such as a Devil Bishop.
"Rose will go to Richard. Get the information from him and report it to . anwhile, Ben and I will go to the wall and kill so monsters, relieving so pressure so that you can get the information."
"Got it." Jonathan and Rose agreed without hesitation while Ben asked one more thing. "Do we need to inform Paul and the others?"
"No. It will take too long and our strength is kind of limited. It's better to work with the people inside the base instead of getting Paul, Stella, and Zion."
"Alright. Let's go then!" Ben smiled. It had been a while since Noel took the reign. He wanted to know, when Noel got the authority, how far he would go.
Noel and Ben increased their speed as they planned to open the path for Rose.
"That's…" The ten people covered in black robes saw Noel and Ben, followed by Rose behind them. However, they didn't know that Jonathan was watching them from another spot.
Noel ignored their gaze as he released his Sword Fire, sending for the blazing fire to the monsters.
The fla burned everything and so demons couldn't withstand the heat and died without being able to fight back.
Ben took out a sword and a spear. He first gathered his Spiritual Energy in the tip of his spear before throwing it forward. The intense energy pierced through the demon's body without any resistance, startling the demons.
After that, Ben raised his sword and slightly tilted it in Noel's direction.
"It's been a while, Noel. Let's go, shall we?"
Noel smirked, feeling excited as well. He waved his sword at him as if they were giving each other a high-five.
But in that instant, Noel's fire and Ben's Spiritual Energy ca out of their weapons. They waved it at the sa ti, creating a black and white cross slash that traveled to the demons.
"GO!"
