Ronin and his men watched from behind the hill for the entire afternoon.
Even as the sun sank behind the mountains and twilight descended, they didn't see a single suspicious creature emerge from the cave.
To be honest, the wait was starting to make him drowsy.
Fortunately, once the sun had completely set and night fell, a light flickered to life inside the cave, followed by the movement of shadows.
"Here they come!" Ronin whispered.
Everyone tensed. After waiting for the better part of the day, they were finally seeing the enemy.
Soon, a small squad emerged from the cave.
Last time, Ridder had only seen three of them, but this time there were four times as many—a total of twelve.
'It must be because Ridder and his men stumbled in here last time. They must have heightened the enemy's vigilance, which is why they've increased the number of patrols.'
