Hye knew this was going to work, but right now he didn't want to face such terrible forces. That was why he made sure Lucas would spread out his orders, and make sure his warriors would try their best to evade these enemies.
It was better to let them run away from here than force them to gather and attack him if he persisted in hunting them down.
"This is getting more interesting," he didn't find it more annoying than amusing and quite challenging.
He knew out there, at the outer battlefield, chances to meet such higher and stronger enemies would skyrocket. But it felt like the outer zone of that place was filled with weaker forces. And that was just great news for him.
As he had such a threat around, he raised his vigilance and kept an eye on everything developing around him. Luckily the forces of both sides decided to retreat, run away as fast as they could when they got the chance to.
