Since they couldn't take the risk of spirit beasts crossing over the defensive boundary, it was decided that a preemptive strike was necessary. They needed to take care of the threat before it could get close enough to pose danger to them.
"We can't take the risk with this man. This old man looks quite experienced. I know your men are capable but there is a slim chance that their ambush might fail." Zach argued as he discussed countermeasures with Bruce.
Bruce was of the opinion that they should arrange a heavy ambush along the path from the Sosis family to the Luther family. But the bone of contention between the two was that Bruce wanted to use his own men for the ambush while Zach felt that it might create further complications if they failed to take care of the old man in one go.
"We can always send more men to create a bigger ambush so he has no chance to run away." Bruce was adamant as he didn't want Zach to do everything by himself.
