Chapter 64 Morning or Night
At the 5th round of the competition, time began to pass. Ejide and Deni, who were on duty to survey, arrived at the meeting point and saw that all the other children were already asleep. The two started walking towards Hiro, who was sitting with Isamu because only the two of them were awake. The two were about to talk, but Hiro immediately asked, "Is there anything that could catch your attention?" The two children shook their heads. Deni spoke first, "There's nothing." Hiro pointed to an empty space where the two children could sleep. "Take turns guarding for two hours each. You're the last pair, so hurry up and go to sleep. We have to save our energy." The two children walked to bed without saying anything because the others were also sleeping around here.
Hiro, who was sitting and timing himself, when the time for his guard duty was over, stood up and got ready to go to sleep. Hiro went to wake Chang Wing, who was sleeping alone, and woke him up to come guard duty. Chang Wing was woken up and started to wake up. "Time to change." Chang Wing got up, still sleepy, and went to sit where Hiro had been sitting before. With a bonfire in the middle, yawning once and sitting down. Isamu, who saw Hiro waking up Changwing, started to wake him up. Wang Lo, who was woken up, quickly opened his eyes. "It's time for you to guard." Wang Lo frowned, stood up and walked to sit next to Changwing. Isamu started to sleep at Wang Lo's place. Wang Lo greeted Changwing. "Did you have a good dream?" Changwing shook his head. "No, I dreamed of a demon coming to wake you up." Changwing smiled.
Wang Lo laughed a little secretly. "Hehe, it seems like a really scary demon." Changwing didn't know that he was cursing Hiro. The two started talking to pass the time. The two of them had been guarding for a while, and the two hours that they had to guard were up. Wang Lo turned to Changwing. "It's been two hours. The radar has numbers telling the time too." Changwing stood up quickly and looked at the next person to guard.
The two of them started to wake up the next person. Jinte looked angry at Wang Lo. When Wang Lo touched him, Jinte almost swung his sword at him, but he stopped before he could reach him. Jinte got up and sat down. Ito got up and sat down with Jinte while the two children went back to sleep. Time passed. Until it was time, Jinte looked at Ito and said, "You went to wake him up." Ito, who didn't want any trouble, went to wake Akira. Akira, who was sleeping and getting up, was gone and sat down where Hiro had been. The two children went back to sleep. Akira was a little hurt that he was chosen to be the only one guarding the place. "That's great, Hiro. While the others have friends to talk to, I have to talk to the wind instead. It's true justice… Wind, come be my friend to talk to. There's no one who wants to talk to me… But it seems that this level is harder than I thought. At first, I planned to let the other children fight to reduce the magical power of the two mages and then go to pull out the mages' bracelets. But it seems that this tunnel trap will have a better result than I thought. But if I don't suggest it, someone else will. Like that, I might be used as a decoy instead. Because using a bow to shoot straight, the magician will run after him. If using a sword, he will be a target for the magician to bombard him with magic. Fortunately, the others did not think of this plan, otherwise the two archers would definitely be decoys in the pit. »
Akira looked at Changwing who was relaxed. «You are a child who knows what you can do and does what you can, so you were used as decoys by that Hiro kid instead. But we are the same as that Hiro kid. In order to achieve a goal that does not fail, we must use everything we have. So this place is also disgusting. But there are still ways to have a hundred red stars, but these thousand stars, will you die first? There are ways. If you fail, you will lose everything, but if you win, the remaining children will survive. First, you need a lot of red stars to buy trust. »Akira kept watching until the time he had reached his goal. Akira woke up Denni and Ejide to continue guarding. He walked to find a place to sleep.
Time started to pass. Denni and Ejide were woken up. Hiro and Isamu woke up. Hiro woke up and got up to stretch himself. Eiji and Deni were about to go to sleep. Hiro looked at Deni and Eiji. "Where are you guys going? It's time to go to work. Are you still going to sleep?" Hiro picked up his sword. Isamu threw the hammer to Hiro. Hiro used the hammer to knock with a loud bang!!!! Everyone woke up in shock. What happened? They turned to look at the sound. Hiro woke up the other kids quickly. "It's time to go to work."
Hiro threw the hammer to Isamu. "It's time to work. Hurry up and do your job." As for Deny and Ejide, they'll continue exploring as usual. Find something useful for us. Find an area where we can use it to launch an ambush. "Deny and Ejide parted ways. The two of them started walking their separate ways without complaining. Hiro sat down. The others looked at Hiro because it seemed like Hiro had now taken over the position of team leader.
Isamu, who was standing there, was telling them how to dig an underground tunnel. The kids started getting up to do the job Isamu had told them about. Time passed and at night, all the kids gathered around. Hiro was the first to explain the situation. "It seems like these two magicians are the type to lure us to ambush them at the exact spot they walked yesterday. Think of it as the other side luring us to them." Jinte, who was lying down, looked at the sky. "If they lure us, it means that they're not good at long-range fighting. Plus, they lured us because they didn't know our exact location. They seemed to be extra careful, too. If we are going to attack, we should fight in the morning. We can't see very well in the dark.
Hiro looked at the other children and asked what they thought. Isamu was sitting on the ground. "Maybe we should fight them now. The other side must be asleep too. At least have Ito or Akira shoot at them to test if they use elemental magic. Just go and look at their element and analyze what we should do.
Wanglo agreed.
Akira raised his hand. "I don't agree." All the children turned to look at Akira. Hiro asked with interest. "Why? When we can get information about the magicians on that side." Akira raised his hand and nodded. "We might get information. But we will reveal that there is one archer for sure. And it will be an opportunity for them to attack us. Plus, my shooting range and Ito's shooting range aren't that far. Plus, it's dark. The disadvantages outweigh the advantages. We should prepare a plan. A single mage can take us down by yourself.
Wang Lo immediately changed his mind after Akira suggested, "I agree. Originally, our advantage was the magic we could use, information we didn't know, and the level of the mage. As for our advantage, we had the radar that indicated the mage's location, and a much larger number of people. Information that they didn't know, if we joined forces, we would have an advantage.
Akira agreed.
Hiro looked at the other kids to see if they had any suggestions, but no one thought to make a suggestion. "If I think it's better to attack at night, the mage would have to add magic to the eyes, which would waste their magic power for nothing. It's worth it." Jin Te became angry and thought that Hiro was asking for trouble. "Do you want to get into trouble? It's better in the morning. We'll be able to see more clearly. If we fight a mage in the dark, we'll die before the mage's power runs out instead.
Hiro looked at Jin Te who was lying down looking at himself.
Wang Lo raised his hand to stop him. "Calm down. Let's vote. The other two voices can be added later. Who agrees with the morning attack? Isamu raised his hand to stop them. Don't raise your hand to vote yet. Listen to me first. Wang Lo fell silent. Isamu saw everyone looking at him. "According to what Jinte said, the reason for fighting in the morning is because it will give us an advantage because we can see easily." Jinte continued looking at the sky. Isamu turned to look at the fire in the center of the circle. "What do you think if we use this fire to burn trees instead? At least we can fight in the dark." Hiro nodded. "Then let's go to the dark." Akira raised his hand. "I agree. It's perfect for me to shoot arrows into the dark. Plus, the magicians on that side will definitely be careless because they saw us using fire to see. They also use fire to see. So that's good. If we use the bow in the morning, the magicians on that side will definitely be able to see the arrows that we shoot."
Wang Loi said one time, "Those who agree to fight in the morning, raise your hand." The other children didn't raise their hand to vote, even Jintei who was the one who proposed it. Wang Loi nodded in satisfaction. "There's no need to vote at night, is there? It's decided at night." Hiro glanced at Akira, then looked at everyone. "Now that we have a method to fight at night, let's start sleeping. Isamu will guard alone, I'm with Akira, Changwing with Jintei, and Itore with Wang Lo. Let's do it like this, we'll take turns guarding alone." All the children didn't complain and started to go to bed. Hiro slept there without changing places. Isamu found a seat outside the circle to see if anything was out of the ordinary.
