Ambush

The group reached the werewolf camp located in the southern region of Zemaria by taking a boat. The river leading to this spot was sufficiently wide, making boat rides feasible. The castle's water mages provided assistance, enabling them to reach the camp much faster. 

This journey only took two hours, a stark contrast to the usual five-hour horseback ride, which filled Elsa with excitement as it meant she could finally see and talk to Chris. To everyone's surprise, the camp they arrived at turned out to be considerably larger than expected, catching Andrius and Drake off guard as they hadn't anticipated such a large number of werewolves in their territory.

Perplexed, Prince Andrius inquired of the commander in charge, "What happened here? I received no reports indicating the scale of this camp."
