In front of him was their young commander; in front of their young commander were the dead bodies of some people that he believed were members of the bandit group.

'Damn these fools! They actually attack huh!' Harry thought with a frown. He wanted to kick their asses. Unfortunately, they were already taken care of and now all of them were lying as a cold corpse.

There was also a huge round object that was made of stone. He surmised it was supposed to be used in hampering their advance. It would be a big disaster to all of them if the bandits had been successful with it.

Wait!

He noticed a rolling mark on the ground!

Dammit, they rolled it, but were stopped by them!?

It was the conclusion he came up with after seeing the commander with the other soldiers. Behind the young commander were his three squad members together with the members of second and third squads. But for some reason, the other soldiers were having dumbfounded faces even those three members of the commander's squad. Harry was puzzled as to why they were acting like that. He could not understand the reason for their uninformed expression.

Harry walked a little closer to a soldier who had a similar face as the other. "Hey, what happened?" He asked him.

The soldier seemed to wake up from a deep sleep after hearing him. 

"H-He's a monster…" a soldier replied stammering that shook him in wonder.

".."

He could not understand who this mate was talking about. Harry squinted his eyes, doubtful at the other person's words.

"Uh, what are you talking about?" He asked once again.

He noticed the soldier did a gulping gesture before opening his mouth once again.

"I-I mean, the commander settled them all…"

"What... is that a joke?" Harry couldn't fully believe the other person's words. 'Wait, did I hear it correctly? Did he mean the young commander disposed of all these bandits?'

After hearing his question that had a clear indication of disagreement, the man was seemingly annoyed at him.

"What are you talking about? Do I look like I am bluffing?!"

"He wasn't fooling you. We saw it too…" interjected the other soldier while pointing his eyes, indicating that he saw it too.

Just then, Harry widened his eyes before he ran back to the back and relayed to Demyul and the others what he learned. There was no way those two would be talking shit in this kind of situation! In the first place, it wasn't the right time for gags.

As expected, after retelling the incidents that occur at the front, Demyul and the others couldn't fully believe him.

Harry could only shrug his shoulders towards it. Demyul and the others strongly denied his report.

Since everything was already settled at the front, Demyul decided to wait until the travel would resume once again.

About fifteen minutes later, the travel once again started. But everyone widened their eyes when they passed by and noticed a pile of corpses.

Harry was wondering what happened to the giant stone. But it didn't take him long enough to notice a pile of debris at the side of the road. He was quite surprised that everyone was able to eliminate it quite fast.

But then the figure of the young commander appeared in his mind. He wondered if it was him who did it. Since he didn't see it with his own eyes, he could not fully agree with his thought.

The group successfully passed the canyon without further hitch. Though they had to take a detour from time to time. Horses needed to rest and drink water. So even if they wanted to advance faster, they couldn't do it. They stopped and built an encampment near a river.

They didn't need to wait for any commands from their superior; they were aware of what they needed to do. Everyone proceeded in building their tents. They had to think for themselves. Thanks to their long experience in the service it was easy for them. Just that, not all of them could afford to buy a spatial ring so. Many of them were carrying their equipment conventionally. Some of the soldiers went to gather dry woods to light a bonfire.

Some built a barricade to hamper the sudden assault of the beasts if ever there was. After all, they were in the wild so, many unexpected things that could happen.

Demyul and his men, who just finished building their tents, gawked at the only person who did nothing. Well, since he was the commander, it was natural for him to command his men to build a temporary base of operation.

However, they noticed him just loitering around. 

"Why he was yet to take action?" One of the soldiers in Demyul's squad asked in wonder. 

"…"

Harry chose to stay silent and Demyul snorted.

But soon they suddenly heard an amaze exclamation from a female soldier.

"Woah! What was that?!"

Those around her were able to hear her. They had stopped their work and glanced to where she was locking her eyes at. Exclamation together with question marks was visibly floating above everyone's head as they were looking at the large tent that appeared from out of nowhere. 

Right, it appeared from out of nowhere as they didn't notice when it was built manually. It seemed like it magically materialized. On top of it, it wasn't just a simple tent. It was made of bamboo, and bamboo house must be the exact word to call it.

Even Demyul and his men fell silent and gawked.

Eman was well-aware that some of these soldiers weren't approved of him as their commander. Since it was a mission that needed teamwork, he understood the importance of it. That's why he had to gain the little favor he could get. If he could at least show a little awe-inspiring thing he could come up with, he believed that they would start to think differently towards him. Well, it could also bring a negative result.

Anyhow, he wanted to become a commander that they could look forward to.
