After engineering squad formed, Wahyu go to military office to ask about expert on trap and emergency fortification. Soon he got the list. After skimping for long he decides to hire almost retired personnel. He got three names.
First is Iroka, expert on trap. Before joining army, he is an expert hunter too. So he very suitable to be practical teacher for them on trapping. Then the second is most despicable personnel, Andrei. He can escape even under tracking from expert. The third is good talent on individual survival and group survival, his name is Affan. The tree of them will be the tutor for Engineering squad.
.....
Without Wahyu realized, he and his team already in this tower for a whole month. His training method gained recognition from military higher up, and many division use Wahyu method. But at the moment the unexpected thing happen. An army from another city attacked the city wall. All three force deployed his or her force, including Wahyu troop.
When they arrive at city wall, they see small troop attacking the wall like crazy. All officer think that is just bunch of idiot who want to suicide. But Wahyu know that is just small probe. The enemy just want to probe his city strength. And look at how they attack, Wahyu know that they got drug to make them crazy or other similar thing like bloodthirsty spell. Without any ado Wahyu go to Mayor Behemoth and tell about his suspicion.
"Report! Mayor, I suspect that enemy just want to probe our own strength. With small troop, it like suicide. Furthermore, that troops attacking is like crazy, I mean they not care about their life. Report end!"
Mayor wants to laugh at Wahyu statement, but he holds back after match Wahyu report and what he saw before. Indeed, that troop look abnormal if one have good vigilant mind. Then he brings Wahyu to meet general.
After they face general, mayor explain what Wahyu said earlier without hiding any information. Wahyu feel that mayor is good soldier. He not snatches his subordinate merit at all.
"Are you Wahyu? How do you know about it?" General ask.
"Respect General, I'm indeed Wahyu, Captain division 5 under Behemoth Legion. I know about it because that's just small trick in my home town. Spying, probing, then create accurate strategy to defeat enemy, this is regular tactic before war. In the war, who laugh last is the winner." Wahyu answer with serious manner. Although it just dungeon, but in front of him is general.
"Then what should we do?" General ask again.
"Of course identify the enemy, get information about them, if possible get information about what they after. So we can create plan to defend and counter-attack them. This army have scouting section right? Use them. I have friended there that expert tracking with smell as well."
.....
Scouting squad deployed to track enemy. With Angela dire wolf, within a day they already caught enemy trail. They see 500 camp well build. Then the scout leader send new member including Angela to report back. The senior just stay and update the newest enemy movement and try to get information here.
After general hear that and confirm Wahyu suspicion He then goes to meet Succubus Queen.
"Hmm interesting. That new captain actually can good deductions. His military drill formula is good too. If he can make another surprise, bring him to me." Deviana said.
Then general go to another faction and give explanation about war matter. The other force feel danger from it and summon his trusted aide. Soon emergency military meeting be held. They discuss how to rout the enemy. But soon turn in to bickering about who would lead the troop. And, no one willing to give.
As soon as Wahyu hear about it from general, he requests to meet Queen.
"I need to tell Queen personally about important mater. I hope General would understand. Can General arrange opportunity to meet Queen?"
Surprisingly general agree. Then with General escort they going to Queen courtyard. When he enters, he felt that the courtyard really beautiful. Within vicious real, there still have beautiful place inside. Wahyu could not help to appreciate the beautiful courtyard. Then beautiful lady with graceful aura and purple dress walk toward him. The general already come back to military camp and now only he and her. Combination her purple long hair and thin dress give seductive aura and Wahyu resist miserably.
"You want to meet me, Wahyu boy?" Deviana ask him.
"Yes, your highness." Wahyu give respectful answer.
"Then tell me what you want to say."
Then Wahyu tell all his thought about this war. He deducted that enemy maybe more intelligent than all the leader force. Maybe all what he sees is just trap. So, he wants to Succubus Queen to let raid leader position to other.
"But with our united power, their force just like ant right?" Deviana probe.
"No, your highness. Honestly your highness mind is like little child. Trust me Queen, it's not like you show your might, and they will surrender. Just like my troop, although they lot weaker than other division. But if they fought in real life, they will lose to my troop. My troop can make nature help them with their wisdom. And if your highness interested in gain another strength, this war is change."
"Explain more."
He begins to explain essential of this war. War is set of interest. If you want to start war, you need to gain profit. Although Wahyu don't now enemy motive, but he can make arrangement to make this faction to suffer little lost. First is to give up being raid leader. If raid success, then there is no problem. If not? This faction will suffer big lost and other faction will have eyed on them.
The benefit to give up is Queen can have reason to stay at city. Just tell them that we will guard the City. With this way Queen can preserve more force on her side. If somethings unexpected happen, Queen can use your faction to defend the city. If you success, you will be the most powerful force on the city. An if this not happen, and they come with triumph, nothing changed. It's simple.
