While a few high-grade Fire Crows held the fort, their overall strength was still relatively diminished. Most of them had previously faced off with Gold Rank killers and suffered disconcerting losses. Naturally, they were hesitant to delve deeper into the province. They just wanted to quietly survive in this region until the bloody battle was over.
Consciously or not, all beings inherently yearn for survival. Among humans, there exists those who fear death, so too among Fire Crows there are those who fear death as well.
It's just a logical progression.
But… we might be afraid of confronting a large army, but when we amass a large unit of Fire Crows and face a single human adversary, that's a completely different story!
Enemies mobbed from all sides, delivered hammered blows from all directions. How can they not win? How could they not succeed?
With so many Fire Crows united, the smallest spark or tiny flame could incinerate you into ashes!
