We gathered around after the self-improvised map was done. Although the map that Miya made is labeled with the elven alphabet, due to her magic that she activated, we managed to read the letters of the foreign language.

"Let's get the plan started."

We nodded together as we understood what will be needed next.

"The eastern side of the camp is heavily guarded because that is the location of the food supply barn. We had to avoid that area at all costs if we don't want to get caught by the others. The southern part is not guarded because the high walls are already enough to defend the place. We can emerge ourselves now but it's pretty suspicious if we used this place to sneak inside, therefore, we will be using the southern part. Since Leto will be helping us, growing some vines to allow us to climb the walls would be enough. Of course, we have to divide our attack force into two."

"Isn't it better if we stick together?" I asked.

"No. With the elves having sharp senses, they will immediately find it a bit strange and also to avoid the eyes of the elves laying on us. It would take a lot of time for us to gather enough info if we stay together. We had to cover lots of areas as soon as possible."

"It makes sense, but we have no idea how strong the people in this area are. Can you elaborate to us properly what abilities do these people have that might work against us?" Moonlight asked.

"The abilities huh... I almost forgot about it. Well, these people are more inclined to using swords and staves right now and only a few people wield the bow and arrow so we won't be having any problems in terms of enemies with ranged attacks. The only thing is that most of the elven guards here have the ability to heal and purify against magic that deals paralysis, blindness, and poison. So, if any of you specialize in those skills, then just hold it for a while because it isn't ideal enough to unleash them."

"Aside from that, there are also beasts tamed specifically for us elves. Most of them are wolves and they have a sharp sense of smell. I already covered our hiding place with an anti-wolf detector smell. But once we go out of this place, we had to deal with these wolves that might be deployed for later on."

"The first group would be sneaking using the walls while the others would sneak on this area," Miya explained.

"When are we going to strike?"  Maple asked.

"Once the sun is down, we can go strike them because most of the guards usually rest for the night. We can use that opportunity to deal with them."

Honestly, the plan was quite normal and I don't think I see any kind of unique to it. Still, this was still something beyond my capabilities. I am no good at tactics so I can't just say this plan of hers is flawed. But I have a bit of bad feeling about this, but I guess I should trust my instincts this time.

We are divided into two groups. My group consists of Moonlight and Leto while Miya's group contains Catmod and Maple. And since Leto is with us, our task is to sneak into the wall. But I am not quite sure what will happen later. Although we are doing this for the sake of the world, I am unsure if this is the right thing to do.


...

We waited for at least a few hours before the sun descended on the horizon and darkness started creeping in the vast sky. The people doing things and other stuff also started to stop and goes to their tents one by one. From the looks of it, these people's days are now over and rest time comes in. Miya looked at us and signaled us.

"This is the right time. Let's go to our positions," Miya said.

We moved with our group and started to go to our positions. Since we are infiltrating the south wall, this would take for a good amount of time to deal with a silent infiltration. Although I am nervous, I felt something in my body that tells me to be fearless and that this mission is not that serious and something easy to deal with. This mindset is somehow foreign yet familiar to me. I don't really understand the feeling but I guess this is going to be normal to me. 

After crouching low and avoiding the eyes of the elves who sometimes lingered near, we managed to reach the wall. There is a single guard and from the looks of it, he seemed to be sleeping at the moment. Yet, I don't think this would be good because the elves were known to be sensitive to most things. A slight problem and we will be exposed to danger.

"What do we do?" I whispered.

"Let's take this guy down. It is rather easy because he is alone and he is sleeping at the moment. We could take advantage of that." Moonlight said.

"But according to Miya, elves are sensitive to sounds and alike, wouldn't that be a problem for us?"

This time, Leto stepped forward and presented herself.

"Let me do it. I know how to deal with guys like this who are unaware of their surroundings," Leto whispered.

I nodded at Leto and do her job. Leto waved her hands on the direction of the guy sleeping. Around the back of the guy, a large vine appeared and slowly crept up to the man. The unaware guy did not notice that the vine constricted his body with a loose one first to avoid detection and when the vine is fully able to surround the body of the man, Leto gripped her fist hard and at the same time, the vines that slithered around the guard and tighten as fast as lightning. 

"Urk!"

The guy squirmed but before he can even scream, he breathed his last. Leto is quite brutal at first but merciful in sentencing death. She did not make the guy suffer in bleeding but just let him die in suffocation. It's really a silent killer.

"Done. Now, we can now infiltrate the place," Leto said.

However, I quickly stopped them for now.

"Wait. I have to make sure we are all alone right now. It would be troublesome if we are to reveal our location due to a hidden enemy hiding in the tall bushes.

"Mana Scan!"

With that, my whole senses were extended tenfold and it covered the 10-meter radius of the wall. Then, I stopped Moonlight and Leto and crouched down.

"There are still 5 enemies nearby with a single guy almost reaching our location at exactly 3 minutes from now on!"
