Hana got the recording from Clovis and acted as if she wasn't the one dealing with such a thing. After that, she spread the video to others so that everyone who doubted him would find out that Clovis managed to do it without her help.
"Is this for real?"
"They are truly able to kill all these Tier 3 beasts by themselves."@@@@
"There isn't any support in this recording. And it doesn't look like it has been edited heavily."
Of course, the video had gone through the editing process, which was Melody's job. She had to make sure that they didn't show too much information about their group and fighting style.
After all, this video would be spread widely, not just to them but also to other people in the city.
While they were focused on the video, Clovis and his group actually asked for the help of the people from the OpenSky company, not for fighting the Tier 3 beast but for cooking the frog.
"Woah, this looks delicious." Hana sat down next to them. Her subordinates gave her a few skewers so that she could enjoy. They also shared it with other participants, making sure they had their bellies full with some good meat today.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be elegant and graceful young lady?" Clovis glanced at her. The only one who could talk casually to her was probably Clovis
"Isn't that fine? If I'm here with you guys, the tension will drop." Hana shrugged. "Besides, I originally wanted to hunt this frog first since the meat is so amazing. Unfortunately, we don't have a good chef here."
"Indeed." Clovis nodded. "Having delicious food is a part of a good adventure."
Hana looked at him for a moment before saying, "You're misinterpreting my words though."
"What do you mean?"
"Alright. That's all. Take it as a payment for the frog." Hana stood up and brought a bag of skewers for herself.
Clovis's experience turned serious as he was thinking about their future. Meanwhile, Kanaria came to him after Hana left.
She whispered, "We might have to be careful. Ivan doesn't seem like he is going to swallow his pride in this raid. Or maybe this is your plan? You provoke Ivan by killing three Tier 3 beasts. This way, the people will acknowledge our strength.
"Then Ivan will get jealous and try to replicate our achievement. He will end up dying or at least his teammates will suffer because of his reckless decision. If he dies, we don't need to watch out for him anymore."
Clovis shook his head helplessly. What Kanaria said was true. One of his objectives was to rile up Ivan. However, he didn't plan to kill him.
He whispered, "I think I've told you this, but I have no intention of killing him. It's not because I'm too soft, it's because I want him to still be used as our enemy instead of an unknown enemy appearing out of nowhere. With him, we're able to at least predict what he's going to do. So, if he is in danger during the expedition, we will help him."
Kanaria fell silent. She couldn't deny the fact that Ivan was easy to manipulate.
And if they actually helped him, with his ego, he would definitely flare up and do something bad, tarnishing the Drake Group's reputation.
With this, the advantage that the Drake Group got from preparing land for the OpenSky company to land would have gone to waste.
Kanaria nodded in understanding. "Alright. If that's what you're planning..."
"Yep." Clovis waved his hand, assuring her that everything was going to be alright. If he wanted to handle all those powerful enemies, he needed to manipulate an easier target like Ivan.
"Go get some rest. We'll start our hunt early in the morning."
"You too." Kanaria stood up before walking back to their tent.
Clovis looked at the sky for a moment before observing everyone's expression as if trying to understand their intention. He felt tomorrow's hunt would be much more dangerous than he originally thought.
