"From our observer on the mountain had reported, they do not notice us yet." communication reporter said

"Not yet,huh." butch said while in deep thought.

"It seems that you are also thinking the same as mine." Nihn said

"...Yes" Butch said

The communication squad reporter was left in puzzle expression, he did not understand what did his general and vice general commander are talking about.

"We suspected that their might already know that they patrol lines has been cutted off but acting that they're not notice us yet." Nihn said

"But what would that give them adventage by doing that?" Butch said while rubbing her chin

And suddenly.

"!!" communication reporter suddenly startle, he then took out a blue stone that was gleaming bright.

It was Magic stone that had engraved a skill {Message}

"You may answer." Nihn said.

Communication reporter nodded and then cast his skill.

"{Message} Open!"

The light then start to take form of a letters.

It was an average comunication skill.

the reporter was reading it for a moment and then make serious expression.

"General Commander.... I have a new report." reporter said

Butch and Nihn look to the reporter calmly

"Say it" Nihn said.

The Communication reporter nodded.

"Our assalt force did break through the target base...but something strange had occurred." 

Communication reporter said.

"It is as you suspected sir, they were already notice our presense since we step in that forest." 

Communication reporter said.

"......" Nihn and Butch are not saying anything but wait for more of his report.

"There was detachment of soldiers station inside the wall, waiting in full arms." Communication reporter said

"As if they was waiting for us to come" Communication reporter continue.

"....No. There must be something more to that, dont you think so?" 

Nihn said.

"Y-yes...i'm afraid so" Communication reporter replied.

"Other than enemies oddly fast respond, are there anymore report?" 

Butch ask.

"T-that was all it wrote in {Message}, My general." 

Communication reporter replied

After he said that, the blue stone was gleaming bright once again.

"!!" communication reporter startle again.

He then open the message again.

"{Message} Open!"

He then read the content inside the {message}.

"Wha- General!! This is urgent!!" communication reporter quickly turn to talk with Butch and Nihn, with his panick expression.

"Our Observer on the mountain says that the enemies is escaping from us!" communication report comtinue his report.

"What!! How!?" Nihn was shockingly yell

"They said suddenly the enemy is appear outside near the forest, carrying their supply running out to the North!."

"I see....." Butch replied

Both Nihn and communication reporter looking at Butch with an expression  "(I see) What?".

"The enemy soldier that stationed at the wall, it was a stall force." Butch said.

"Ah! i get it now! with The Imaginary Lord ablility {Greater Imaginary}, They escape from the forest witout a need to break through us!" Nihn said

"A {Teleportation}.....no, {Mass Teleportation}" Butch said.

"It seems that the new Imaginary Lord are not strong as we estimate." Nihn said

"Yes........,*Inhaled* SOLDIER!! PREPARE YOUR HORSE AT THE NORTH!!! OUR TARGET IS ESCAPING! WE WILL CHASE THEM NOW!"

Butch walk out the tent and yell out loud that the entire operation camp is heard.

"Sir Nihn, What do you mean by that?" 

Communication reporter ask.

"Think it this way soldier. If you are capable to teleport you whole army, will you just teleported it from inside the forest to outside the forest?" 

Nihn replied.

"No sir, If i were capable to teleport my whole army i would teleport away as far as i could." communication reporter said

"That's right, as far as you could. But to cast {Greater Imaginary} {skill} to create {Mass teleportation} {Skill} require a lot of mana and magic energy, and you still need to have mana to cast {Mass teleportation}." Nihn explain

"I see.... " Communication reporter nod as he realise that.

"Don't you have duty to do? GO!" Nihn said

"Yes sir!" Communication reporter replied as run out from the General tent.

Nihn then go back to the tent and grab his silver lining blue helmet and his sword, prepared his horse and then head to the north side of the camp.
