Of course, these demi-humans probably never intended to hide.
After all, there was a particularly powerful tiger-man in this group.
It was no different from a tiger that walked upright; it was a bloodthirsty beast.
It is fearless on the battlefield, hunting monsters with abandon.
It also killed the most monsters, and the rampant beast tide seemed completely unable to stop its advance.
It was powerful, even giving Hera a certain feeling.
Perhaps even she wouldn't be a match for that tiger-man.
However, it was clear that this single tiger-man could not withstand the astonishing tide of beasts.
Around it, countless subhumans worked in perfect harmony.
They used every possible means to trap and annihilate their enemies, employing guerrilla tactics and attrition warfare.
With such cooperation and the individual abilities of the tiger-man, the attack of the beast horde was perfectly blocked.
Most importantly...
Hene looked up at the enormous bear-man.
Although he never entered the battlefield, he kept a close eye on its development.
He always had a few pebbles in his broad, calloused hands.
Wherever there was a possibility of danger, he would reach out and throw the stone into it.
The tightly packed beast tide will collapse and disperse in the instant it makes its move.
It's like...
Adult members of the wild animal pack keep a large number of prey in captivity.
And they watch over the young wild animals, training them to hunt without getting hurt.
This bear-man is doing just that.
They specially turned this defeated battlefield into a training ground for those demi-humans.
She had only seen this kind of effortless attitude in Viktor once before.
What kind of power could possibly possess such a well-trained team of demi-humans?
Hera had already vaguely guessed it.
But soon, the guess was confirmed.
Some adventurers stumbled and ran toward her.
Their faces bore mournful expressions, and their bodies were stained with the blood of various magical beasts.
From a great distance, he shouted loudly towards Hera:
"Boss! Are you alright?!"
"Boss! How are you?!"
Although their hands were still stained with the blood of monsters, their magnificent and sturdy armor robes made them instantly recognizable.
They are definitely different from other adventurers.
They must be very rich.
Hera recognized the several large men rushing towards her.
These individuals were core members of the Beast Guild sent to Brayston to protect the caravan of the Clavner family.
He was also Hera's former comrade-in-arms.
A hint of surprise flashed in Hera's eyes the moment she saw them.
"Pal Chu, what brings you back?"
"Where's Walter? Didn't he come back with you?"
Faced with Hera's question, the burly men exchanged glances.
Finally, it was Pal who spoke up to explain:
“Mr. Victor informed us of the situation on the southern front. We came back specifically to provide support, accompanied by Butler Helnathan.”
Haier Nathan Butler?
Upon hearing the name, Hera instinctively looked up at the enormous bear-man in the distance.
And Pal continued:
"As for Walter, he now works at the Bryston Weather Bureau."
The pay there was very high, far exceeding what these delivery brutes could earn.
Everyone was very envious of this.
"But actually, Walter also wanted to come and help, but as a fourth-tier mage, he needed time to chant spells."
"Plus, he's getting old and his physical strength isn't what it used to be, and we were worried he'd slow us down, so he didn't come in the end..."
Before the burly men could finish speaking, a brief silence fell over the area.
They didn't elaborate on the real reason why Walter didn't return.
Hera looked at them, but only smiled and said nothing more.
The reason is obvious to everyone.
Walter is human, and even as a mage, he is quite old.
He is considered an 'elder' among the monks.
Having finally managed to find a stable job in Braxton, it would be better to simply spend one's later years there.
His former comrades were also unwilling to let Walter return to the remote and dangerous place.
So in the end, they secretly left Walter behind, having originally planned to return together to provide support, and went south with the main force alone.
Hera looked at them and understood.
The return of several core members has already explained the origins of this demi-human team.
Knowing that the southern front might collapse, Mr. Victor sent reinforcements ahead of time.
What does this tell us?
"Mr. Victor must be concerned about my safety."
She felt a surge of happiness and felt much more at ease.
Even her shrugged shoulders gradually relaxed, and her body almost collapsed onto the catgirl behind her.
However, the burly men in front of her exchanged glances but ultimately did not reveal the reason that 'Mr. Victor accepted money from the First Prince'.
Hearing the chatter coming from not far behind him, Helnason turned around and slowly walked towards the adventurers from the Beast Guild.
He walked up to Hera, and his deep voice rang out:
"You're Hera, the guild master of the Beast Guild, right?"
Hera nodded as she listened to the bear-man's booming voice.
“I am Helnason, the butler of the Clavner family.”
