Crack! Ka-thump!

‘Is this how it ends?’ 

‘He may have been an enemy, but what an outstanding man. Is this what they call the result of experience?’

‘Is this dumbfuck even aware of what he has done?’

‘A dude like this would corrupt us from the inside no matter where you chuck him. I’ll take care of him right away when everything is said and done.’

‘Does he mean to hang at the back so he doesn’t have to take part in the battle? I see he looks out for himself dreadfully well.’

‘No… the most important thing right now is a response plan, not trying to get to the root of this.’

‘To form an avenue for retreat, breaking through the weaker spot is standard procedure. But trying to retreat after losing this battle would be difficult. If that’s the case…’

‘It’s that guy!’

‘This is the end!’

Clang!

‘This isn’t good.’

‘A duel? Why would I?’

‘Wait, what did I even get to say?’

‘Shit…’

Klang klang klang klang klang!

‘He is an Expert after all. But he’s not much compared to Jerome.’

Ambush LV.5: Capitalize on advantageous terrain to lie troops in ambush. If successful, it has a high probability of causing confusion for the enemy.

Judging from 

 stats and special traits, his adversary was a soldier that was closer to a strategist than a warrior.

Although it was amazing that he reached the Expert stage despite this, his Strength was only 71.

Milton’s Strength was 70, so there was no more than a 1 point difference in actuality.

‘I reckon a 71 Strength Expert is more than doable, after being 

whooped

 like crazy by Jerome and h

is 89 Strength

 on the regular.’

With that belief in mind, Milton focused on his opponent.
