The other three demons responded immediately. They controlled the Devilbeasts and scattered in all directions. They then zigzagged in a direction where they came from and soon disappeared into the distance.

While retreating, a demon even turned back to toss its spear toward the head of the Devilbeast which had a broken wing and was spiraling down.

Although Andrea concentrated on the target, the second standing coin never appeared.

“They escaped?” Shavi asked in surprise, “What did they come for?”

For the first time, the demons escaped before a direct confrontation. In previous cases, the brutal demons would not give up until they attacked their targets severely. It was indeed surprising that they just hovered rather than attacking or spying.

“I don’t know…” Andrea released the trigger, “They seem to have figured out how to dodge the sniper. The enemies learn very quickly, don’t they, little Molly?” She laughed, looking at Molly who was rubbing her ears.

“You should remind me earlier next time,” Molly complained. The sound of this weapon was not lower than that of a cannon. She hardly had time to cover her ears. Even so, she still felt dizzy due to the thunder-like bang.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t expect the ‘guiding lines’ to appear so fast. Probably my ability has improved again.” Andrea blinked her eyes, “I’ll give you a special compensation to apologize.”

“You didn’t do it on purpose. You don’t have to apologize, ” Molly scratched her head. “After all, defeating the enemy is more important.”

“But I’ll feel sorry for it.”

“Well…” She had to agree in face of the earnest stare of Andrea, “What’s the compensation?”

“Chaos Drinks,” Andrea said, covering her mouth.

“Are you… sure?” Molly asked in surprise. When they were on the Sleeping Island, she only knew that Andrea was born in a prominent family and was one of the most powerful combat witches, so she was nearly as important as Ashes. In addition, Andrea used to stay with Lady Tilly, so Molly had few opportunities to communicate with Andrea in the past. After coming to Neverwinter, the gap between combat witches and non-combat witches completely disappeared. It was then she found out that Andrea was not as cold as she imagined, but elegant and friendly.

However, she had not expected Andrea to be so generous!

“Yeah, the general rule is a cup for each round. My special compensation is that if you lose, you don’t need to give me a cup. If I lose, I’ll give it to you. How is this? It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

“I see. If I don’t have to lose, it’s indeed… Wait, it’s not!” Molly suddenly understood, “Doesn’t it mean that I’m going to play cards? I won’t join—”

“But you’ve promised it, just now,” Andrea revealed a “too late” expression. “Stay here and don’t leave. I’ll go to the command post and come back soon!”

Before Molly had time to explain, Andrea had already jumped down from the brick pile and rushed to the end of the dump site.

She turned to Margie who obviously had the similar feeling and finally knew what she meant by saying “I was forced by them to come here”.

…

Frontline command post.

Within half an hour, all the information about this “accidental encounter” had been gathered and placed on Iron Axe’s desk.

Lightning and Maggie who had been wandering around the watch circle were the first ones to discover the enemy’s trail.

At that time, they were flying through the clouds one after another and happened to had been out of the sight of the enemy. After that, they followed the demons at the six o’clock direction and sent warnings to Sylvie through the Sigil of Listening.
