Thinking About His Loot
So, taking down the clan was a must, and killing everyone including Berry and her grandfather was something they had to do.
William wasn't worried over the old man. He could guess he wasn't that simple or easy foe.
Even if he asked the old man to venture deep into the enemy territory and fight the monster tide's formidable leaders, it wasn't going to end badly for him.
William didn't miss this part as he made sure to remind the old man to keep all of his strong aces intact and rested.
In addition to that, the old man seemed to move a step ahead and didn't involve his strong forces early on in the battle. William didn't know the exact reason, but he felt the old man was acting cautious and seemed to sniff something wrong in all this.
At the same time, the reinforcements coming from the academy and the allied clans sent out their elites as well.
To kill the old man required much more work and more formidable forces than the enemy already prepared up ahead.
