"Stay here, and summon Brutus at the right moment," Thirteen ordered.
"Young Monster, are you going to fight that Ogre?!" Cristopher asked.
Clearly, the chubby boy was horrified by the notion of fighting an Ogre this early.
"Yes."
"B-But why? We can just let it leave like the other Monsters. Why must you fight it?"
Thirteen lightly patted the chubby boy's shoulder, while continuing to look at the Ogre in the distance.
"We can't stay in this Oasis forever," Thirteen stated. "I know that I told you that the moment Brutus reaches Rank 2, we will leave this place. However, it will be best to first gauge how strong an Ogre is because we might encounter a lot of them as we continue our journey.
"Don't worry, I will not do something that I believe that I cannot handle. Everything is within my calculations, and there is a high chance of winning."
Yes, Thirteen wouldn't do anything without a chance of winning.
