Tyler said, “Of course we have to fight. Not only will you make your move, but I will also do the same. The only
difference is that I'm representing the Great Marshal.”
Alfred slapped himself on the head and replied, “I understand now, Tyler. Are you planning to spar with me?”
“That has been my wish for a long time. And now, a wonderful opportunity has presented itself.”
“Haha, it's a deal! When the time comes, we'll go all out in a decisive battle.”
“My sentiments exactly.”
It had never crossed Northern King's mind that a sparring match between two old friends was all he had gotten in
exchange for thirty thousand kilograms of rations.
Three days later, Sole Wolf and the others reaped a bountiful harvest.
Sole Wolf alone had slaughtered thirteen wild boars along the way, while Nameless had killed three fearsome tigers
in his hunt.

As bisons were herd animals, it did not take Ares much effort to rack up the count.
Although Alfred, Tyler, and Killer Wolf didn't go hunting, they managed to trick Northern King into giving them
seventy thousand kilograms of rations, which was enough to sustain Zeke's Centuria for two whole years.
In the beginning, Sole Wolf and the others had no idea what had happened. Instead, they were upset over Killer
Wolf and his companions' decision not to go hunting.
“Killer Wolf, you lot are becoming increasingly cunning. By not going out to hunt, are you planning to freeload on
us? You had better forget it. I'm not going to share my spoils with you.”
Ares, too, reprimanded Tyler and Alfred, “It's understandable if the young Killer Wolf lacks sense, but how can I say
the same of both of you? If you don't put in any effort, who's going to feed you? You had better be ready to go
hungry. Even our current haul is too meager to meet the Great Marshal's expectations.”
Despite the accusations, the three simply responded with a slight smile.
When the others had finished lecturing them, Killer Wolf broke his silence. “Are you done already?”
Sole Wolf replied snarkily, “Why? Do you have a problem, Killer Wolf?”
“Yes. A big one, in fact. Let me ask you, who told you that we didn't work and have nothing to show?”
“Are you joking? If I recall correctly, you guys remained here the entire time. How could you have secured anything
if you never left? Moreover, we were the ones who hunted the prey, which has nothing to do with you. So what haul
are you talking about?”
Killer Wolf let out a sigh. “Your stupidity has limited your imagination. To be honest, the prey you have hunted is
worthless compared to the spoils we're about to receive.”
Tyler added, “Killer Wolf, you're being too polite. In reality, their haul can't even be compared to ours.”
Alfred joined in the fray. “Their haul can sustain the troops for a month or two at most, but ours can do so for two
whole years.”
Killer Wolf remarked, “It should be arriving anytime now.”

All of a sudden, Alfred shushed the crowd. “Quiet, everyone, and listen carefully.”
They gave Alfred a curious look before pricking their ears to listen.
Soon, the sound of chaotic footsteps and creaking carts approaching could be heard.
Sole Wolf, Ares, and Nameless tensed up immediately. “There's a big group of people approaching. This shouldn't
happen in a place like this. Everyone, be on your toes!”
No sooner had they spoken than the three prepared for battle.
However, Killer Wolf remarked haughtily, “Look at how nervous you have become. Those are our guys and pose no
threat at all. They're just here to deliver rations.”
What the hell is going on?
A baffled look descended upon Sole Wolf's face. “Killer Wolf, what nonsense are you spewing? What do you mean
by 'our guys?' Since when you have so many men under your command?”
“You'll see.”
A short while later, the flurry of footsteps heralded the arrival of more than a hundred men. They were all
enthusiastically pulling a hundred carts behind them.
