Chapter 49: A Real Party

Chapter 49: A Real Party

Everyone was sitting in a chair or armchair in the room, Dora, Midgard, Zuri, and Marie on the bed. Leon was sitting on the ground next to Erick by order of Midgard."So, Miss Owner, what is this super strategy that should help us win easily against that non-D-rank rift?"

Kraim asked casually from his chair.

"I don't know what's worse, the fact that this expedition was a failure from the beginning because you weren't wise enough to see how unbalanced your pupils were or the fact that they still lost with you on the team."

He flinched and looked away, groaning. What was left of his pride, anyway?

"So if all the failures are done barking, let's talk strategy. Thanks to my conversation with the maid, we know how to deal with this rift. First, the enemy, it seems that the monsters you have been fighting all this time are mere summons. "

A few gasps of astonishment arose, and Dora scratched his chin while whispering.

"Oh... That's why none of them dropped a soul stone... What a waste!"

Midgard nodded, a small smile on her lips, and continued.

"The black smoke must be some sort of summoning portal, as you saw, it doesn't matter how many monsters you kill, as long as the summoner is alive, the undead will always come back. To put it simply, it seems that they are the bosses of this place."

Intrigued looks were exchanged among the people.

"They? Are there many summoners?" Mercy asked.

"Yes, the maid killed one earlier, but since they returned, we can assume that there are others, probably in the ruins, but now that we have this information, the difficulty comes to go down a notch."

She stood up and stood in the middle of the group.

"Now for our plan of action, our main concern is the shooter, we need a long-range attack for Dora and the servant to take care of it."

Kraim, offended, hit his chest.

"Are you serious? You say we need a long-range attack and you ask these two? Didn't you see how they fought? Where do you see a long-range attack? I'm an archer! It's my specialty!"

"So you're going to take care of them alone?"

He flinched.

"Uh... I didn't say that. You were disrespectful..."

"Well, if you can't, then we'll do without your services, we need people who could actually do it. So, maid, you focus on your little magic tricks, and for you Dora... Gamma."

Kraim was shaking in his chair with rage, but no one paid any more attention to his antics. Eryl and Dora nodded.

"Roger."

"Good. You, the puppet girl, You will protect them with all your tank-wannabe puppets. only them."

"Understood... What? And the others?"

"Now listen, I know what's going on better than any of you, I know how we're going to win, so stop questioning me and do what I said. Valid for everyone."

Marie seemed a little frustrated but as she glanced at Dora, the boy gave her an understanding nod. She sighed and nodded to Midgard.

"Good, they will be the main target so none of you will need any support. No matter what, don't let them get hit by the black crystals... Valid for everyone, but for these two in particular. And then..."

She developed her entire plan and everyone's actions for about ten minutes, from time to time arousing the anger or astonishment of the members of the group but no one questioned her.

And so, they were all ready to leave. Standing in the middle of the room, facing Midgard. Cid and Erick unconscious on the ground, the woman was ready to send them off.

"Don't mess up everything again, if you fail, I'll only save Dora since you're all useless."

Despite the tough warning, Freya smiled and took the challenge.

"Don't worry, we won't disappoint you. Thank you, we owe you our lives."

She bowed her head, an action unfitting of her social class, it was the thought of Hope at this moment, but for the others, they knew that the one in front of them was a being beyond normal standards, even for emissaries.

They didn't know her nature nor her power, but the instinct of an emissary was never wrong, the strong will recognize the strong. A door of light appeared on the wall, and at the signal from Midgard, they rushed to the other side, with weapons in front, and threw themselves into this hell.

A good hundred undead, scattered in every corner, barely had time to react when an explosion threw several of them into the air.
