Since they had openly shown their malice, Reiji has no plans of just ignoring it.
It's better to strike them even before that happens!
'Well, I might offend Almon if we attacked first… However, we can't enter the city together with them or we will be at disadvantage.'
Although Reiji was confident about the skills of his men, he knows that they are not invincible. If they enter the territory of the enemy, it would be difficult for them to survive and some of them might even be unnecessarily sacrificed. There was no way he would let that happen!
'We can probably try to escape secretly but… I just can't give that order.'
Reiji thought since he knows that although the Church is a dangerous opponent, it is also a chance for them.
After all, there were only two priests and a small squad of cavalrymen protecting them.
They have definitely underestimated Jacob and his pack since they weren't aware that they are werewolves to begin with.
