Balmore was equally aware of this point. The momentum exhibited by the enemy was vastly different from what he had imagined. Lances stood like a forest, giant shields like mountains. The usual chaotic scenes were absent; only a frightening stillness existed, as unmovable as mountains. The three times larger half-beastman armaments now appeared incredibly ferocious and terrifying. Balmore's feeling of falling into an endless abyss grew stronger, and he realized that this battle would bring trouble he had never imagined.
"Your baron, something seems off. How did these half-beastmen suddenly become so impressive? This is completely different from the army we encountered in Banassia. Should we hold our ground and strengthen our defenses instead of hastily attacking? We should observe the situation before proceeding."
