And so, several days passed.
The wish for things to go smoothly was not fulfilled for Matt.
Right now, they were hiding in the undergrowth of the Empire's barren fields as they watched several checkpoints of Divine Knights and Heroes.
"There are too many of them, Matt. I'm afraid... We can't win if we fight them." Alice said.
Matt agreed.
'In fact, our limit might be to fight 30 at the same time... These guys are 50, and the other checkpoint is close...' Matt thought and sighed.
"We can't go this way. Let's get back quickly and try to find another alternate route." He said, and they crawled on the ground to get the hell out of there.
Still, their bodies made some movements in the undergrowth.
And in the distance, someone could notice it.
"Boss, isn't that weird? What kind of animal could make that kind of move?"
"A big snake? There aren't any around this area, are there?"
