The location of the enemy camp's chief general was known to every trial participant within the grotto-heaven. After all, the enormous banner hanging in the sky was impossible to miss.
But though they knew where it was, not a single person headed that way. There was no need to think about it—the enemy camp was bound to contain countless soldiers. Even killing more than ten soldiers now required them to join forces.
