Another World Mall-Chapter 598: Reckless
In the end, Erwin and the others were forced to get some rest. And they ultimately weren’t confident in fighting the enemies during the night.
They didn’t bring proper equipment to fight in the dark, so they had no other choice but to set up a camp a bit far away from the target. They were planning to rest and attack the Tier 6 beast in the morning so that they could return to the city before dark.
It was a reasonable plan, considering their previous one was to kill the enemies before dark and camp in the place they had cleaned up so that they didn’t have to worry about the enemies anymore.
Although Jay and Clovis were separated, Clovis was still conducting the meeting with everyone. This time, he included Aileen in the meeting. After all, Aileen would most likely join their group after they took care of the Heshton family.
Aileen was sitting by the campfire while the others were either on the lookout or hiding inside their tent.
Melody first reported their current situation. "As I mentioned previously, there is a nest underneath you. This nest and the Tier 6 beast’s territory on the surface are most likely connected. They will help if the one on the surface is attacked.
"Hence, we will have to stop the beasts from the nest to reach your group. We have found the entrance."
"Are you going to be alright? There are only four of you there. That nest might contain another Tier 6 beast, you know?" Aileen asked, concerned about Clovis’ team.
Jay and Erwin felt the same, but Clovis wouldn’t change his mind after making his decision. So, there was no need to persuade him.
Clovis looked at the map while saying, "First of all, the basic plan will be attacking both the surface beasts and the ones underground at the same time. With Melody here, we’ll match your time.
"It’s true that the underground nest is dangerous, but you’re not in the position to worry about us.
"The location of another Tier 6 beast is very close to you guys, so if you attack them, this Tier 6 beast will most likely bring the beasts to attack you guys.
"Besides, Christina and I have unique abilities, so there’s no need for you guys to worry."

Jay thought for a moment. "In that case, I and Ragna will stop the Tier 6 beast. Although we’re not strong enough to challenge it, we can buy enough time for you guys. Erwin should handle the rest of the beasts."
"No." Clovis shook his head. "Erwin and Aileen will kill this Tier 6 beast. Jay and Ragna will focus on keeping the rest of the beasts away from both of them as well as the main group."
"!!!" Erwin widened his eyes. "Although it’s possible to kill a Tier 6 beast, I’m not using my wires, Clovis."
"I know. However, you bring your wires, right?"
"Yes."
"In that case, that’s simple. Put on a performance and go to the east side of the territory." Clovis paused for a moment as Melody marked the place. "The Tier 6 beast’s territory might be a plain, but not far from it is a wooded area. If you go there, you can use your threads.
"Aileen will be there to help you. You guys are a couple that can fight a much more powerful enemy when fighting together, so I will trust you guys to be able to do it. Understood?"
Aileen frowned. "But how about Gillian? I don’t think he will agree."
"Provoke him. Just treat him as if he can’t kill a Tier 6 beast on his own. He will be a bit reckless after that and doesn’t need more help. Kanaria will help if necessary. He can’t die here, but it doesn’t mean he can’t suffer.
"Besides, just tell him that Erwin will die if you don’t help him and the Tier 6 beast will surround them, causing the expedition to fail. And he will be freed from you, so he will most likely agree to it." Clovis shrugged.
"I understand. We can take care of the Tier 6 beast on our own. Even if there are some beasts coming toward us, we can kill them as well." Aileen nodded in agreement.
"Yeah. We’ll kill them." Erwin corrected her words with his usual arrogance and confidence, which put a smile on Aileen’s face.
"Good." Clovis nodded. "The biggest problem will be their number. Although all of us are strong enough to handle those beasts, the number will be overwhelming."
"Don’t worry about it. We’ll worry about it ourselves. You should focus on the beasts underground. From the looks of it, there are at least several hundred beasts inside."
"Yeah." Clovis thought for a moment. "I already have a plan for that. If you don’t have any questions or objections to the current plan, then that’s all for tonight’s meeting."
They exchanged looks. Not wanting to burden Clovis any more than this, all of them just agreed not to ask anything. Besides, the plan was reasonable as always.
They didn’t know the plan that Clovis had in mind for the underground nest was a bit reckless, even for him.
As soon as everyone was disconnected, Clovis immediately walked to Christina, saying, "Can you do something for me?"
"Hmm?" Christina frowned. "What?"
"If I go insane, leave me there. I should be able to calm down by myself after killing all those beasts."
"Insane? Wait. Are you…" Christina gasped.
"Yeah. I will use my Perfect State from the start. The battle itself will definitely last at least an hour. I will maintain my Perfect State the whole time, so the first thirty minutes will be focused on finding the Tier 6 and killing it.
"If I show any sign of going insane, you bring Melody and Luci out. I will kill the rest of the beasts and calm down."
Christina stood up while glaring at Clovis. "No. I won’t comply with your request this time. I will bring you back. That’s my job. If you’re going to reject it, I will tell everyone about it and force you to change your plan."
Clovis opened his mouth before scratching the back of his head. "Fine. But make sure to eliminate the beasts first before stopping me."
