AN: Sorry to put this up here, but just so everyone knows, the next two chapters will be heavily info-dumpy! Apologies in advance, I'll post these two chaps together since they're comparatively lacking in plot. Otto was momentarily at a loss for words. 'So this whole plan wasn't just the Wolf King's plan? Was there someone else working with the beast, like a shaman in the tribe? Or is it a human who wanted to steal the gem for nefarious purposes? Perhaps the meteors were really just a natural…

Otto held his breath slightly, as adrenaline coursed through his system. His body was in full fight-or-flight mode. And Otto was not preparing to flee. His eyes twinkled. It was the final battle! Otto only heard a smattering of rough breathing and heavy footsteps coming from the corridor in front of him. The Wolf King didn't seem to be too sensitive to mana. It couldn't recognize the wall in front of it for what it was- a door. However, while the Wolf King was not sensitive to mana, its sense of…

Otto's entourage was composed of five guards and Otto following behind as they entered the base. None of the guards dared to take a look behind them. The group took a long and winding route down to the bottom floor of the basement. 'Sure enough, its structure is primarily located underground.' Otto inwardly breathed a slight sigh of relief that he didn't try to directly break in. The base's layout was as complicated as a maze. It would have taken him at least an hour or two to explore it completely…

Otto cautiously approached the base from afar, and finally caught sight of it. The base was a small, one story structure that vaguely resembled a school building in its lackluster appearance. If the school building had been built in 1400 and was made out of incredibly hard materials. There were no members of the Brenner family surrounding it. But that didn't mean it was unguarded. In fact, it was the opposite. Perhaps Darius had hired men out of an abundance of caution. Regardless, the current base…

Today was Day 6 of the . In other words, the day of the monster siege for Bront City, and the final evening of the incoming meteor showers. Otto could only thank his luck for last night's peaceful rest. The meteors hadn't impacted the north side of the city at all. They would probably hit the military camp tonight. If this was the Wolf King's scheme, like Otto vaguely suspected, it would need the military to be in a state of disarray and panic the most. Then, the monsters could truly begin their…

After 24 full hours, it was afternoon once again as Otto made his way over to the military camp with a still-unconscious Jeremy on his shoulders. As he re-entered, loud shouts and boisterous laughter entered his ears. The military camp was even rowdier than Otto remembered. He soon laid his eyes on the new batch of 'recruits.' And chuckled heartily. Otto could understand why the soldiers were so rambunctious. After all, a bunch of nobles had come to fight the monsters with them! Even better, they all…

Otto took Jeremy by the arm and strode quickly out of the military camp. The duo went to the large market a minute's walk away. Jeremy watched as Otto went on an extravagant spending spree. Besides the ingredients for the 'Beast Luring Potion,' Otto also took the initiative to buy quite a few additional potions of different types. They weren't of good quality, but at least they were abundant. With more money, naturally his transactions would proceed quickly. It took merely an hour before he'd bought…
-
The sun was high in the sky at the permanent military camp. Various sounds of battle could be heard. They came from outside of the walls. It seemed the war with the monsters was already starting to ramp up. Otto and Jeremy stood in front of a very large man. He wasn't large in the sense of 'fat,' though. It was closer to 'extremely tall and incredibly burly.' The man was currently sitting at his desk, yet he remained at eye level with a standing Otto. He had no hair on his head, a blond mustache…
-
Otto leisurely left after the contract was signed. The trap, at least, was complete. Now, all he had to do was wait until the city was besieged by the monsters to go and loot the from the Brenner family base. This was the biggest reason the contract needed to be so stringent. That way, there would be no chance of Darius Brenner stationing overly powerful forces to guard the base while he was supposed to be busy fighting the monsters. Yes, this whole scenario was intended for only this…

"Attack!" "Attack!" Neither side backed down. The two armies swiftly ran at each other for a straightforward, full frontal clash. Men were cut down with spears and swords. Pained screams after injuries and battle cries meant to bolster one's courage equally filled the air. Red blood quickly muddied the field, making it impossible to traverse without great care. One negative consequence of humanity fighting primarily against beasts in the world of the was the lack of development of war tactics. The…
