บท 911: One Step Forward

Shiro felt their disadvantage, but he was not one to give up. "We may not be much now, but our forces are generally superior to other villages." 

"We were near a town so the monsters in our old territory were relatively stronger. While most of the strongest guards had transferred to the town, I still retained a good portion. Our average level is 10, and we have many level 11s."

That was indeed very good. 

Ansel looked at them. "We took you down with fair ease though." 

"You—" the other Shraoans finally snapped at him. "That was only because you caught us off guard, and the territory just happened to be their subsidiary! They'd have made a lot more of a fight otherwise! 

Ansel shrugged. "So strong right? You don't need help from us, right?"

"YOU—"

Shiro sighed and lifted his hand, making his people tone it down a bit.
