The Unexpected Slow Progress
So when my warriors hit hard over their doors, their reaction was sluggish. I could see my warriors swarm inside the castle, killing many illusionists inside out of surprise.
But just before I arrived there, the illusionists started to react. I could see that silver gate over the castle shine brighter as more troops were deployed from the world beyond that gate.
Of course that wasn't the only threat to my plan. Don't forget I was bringing a large number of monsters and races towards their direction, and not far behind that hellish gigantic monster was hot on our tail.
The jumper could see through all this and so he called this a risky plan. Indeed it was risky, and I accepted such risk without hesitation.
At such a point in this battle, if I leant towards safety then I would never be able to achieve what I wanted here.
