With only 2 hunters and a herd of War Boars to contend with, they finally start to see the realisation that they might had been overestimating themselves a little. It was not impossible to get an entire herd with just two hunters but the amount of work, preparation, and also luck was needed to ensure that the herd they wished to cull into game meat would be tremendous.
Even after the two of them had discussed it over, No.2 felt that they should get some help from the current Commando Mages even though they do not have Mana Circuits to assist them. However, No.7 argued and said that the duo had already promised they would be showing results as a duo.
"Yeah, we did promise to bring a War Boar back, not a War Boar Herd. Remember that our objective is to make sure we are still surviving so that when we fight against the Vishnu, we will also be at tip top condition." No. 2 said and at the same time, No.
7 argued that if the War Boar Herd might potentially hurt the current non magical members and it would eventually hurt their chances to fight against Lord Vishnu.
"But you have to consider that there might be multiple stages to this particular dungeon instance. Remember the time that we were being forced into a tower where we spent nearly half a year in there even though it was just half a day?" No.2 reminded her and No.7's body immediately cringed at the words upon remembering what the tower incident.
It was not a significant event but Jin had purposely created a tower like dungeon dimension as a way to improve the endurance of his Commando Mages. He did not expect it to be quite a challenging stage for the Commando Mages to clear and they had to procure supplies through remote assistance in order to clear the tower dimension.
In fact, Jin saw how boring and also immensely difficult a tower dimension instance could be.
"So yeah, if Jin could create such a dungeon dimension to teach us about endurance, this particular dungeon instance might have the same effect. So, we either approach this with care, or we kill them as quickly as possible." No.2 said and No.7 became the one to sigh.
"If the War Boar Herd is our only concern, that would be fine but the heat signatures that we had detected had shown that they are not the only living creatures in this forest." No.7 replied. "We have no idea if they are predators or just angry powerful herbivores since what we are using right now is just magic to check the status of the forest.
The current visibility provided by the night is not the most ideal.""My idea would not be the best of all but I say we can attempt to direct the War Boar Herd to the Manor instead. Maybe ride on them and to avert them from those possible heat signatures and fight the War Boar Manor as planned near the walls of the Manor. After all, No.8 did say that they are going to build a defensive barricade in case we fail." No.2 explained and No.7 pondered for a moment.
She wanted to hog all the glory to herself and No.2 but it seemed like her current hunting partner did not wish to show off his skills. She thought for a moment before looking over the horizon of the forest once again. As hunters prior to being Commando Mages, they knew never to underestimate a dense forest like this especially when they do not have prior knowledge or interaction with it.
No.2 made sense as he was going to mind control the War Boar Herd to a certain extent and use the War Boar Herd as his protection to get out of the Manor's forest and reach to open grounds so that the battle against it would be more in favour to the Commando Mages.
Even if those Heat Signatures would be a threat to the Hunters, the War Boar Herd would at least be their ride out of the forest as well as their temporary protection to ensure that they would be able to have the herd to defend them until they got out of the forest.
Not to mention, most animals and monsters would not be too stupid to go against a herd, it defied basic animal logic unless they were too hungry for food that their instincts were telling them to go into a frenzy for it.
Upon understanding the risks, they decided to do just that. They just never expected that they would be using Kraft's techniques at this conjecture since the Commando Maged never really truly enjoyed his lessons but seeing how it could be their only possible way out of this predicament, they would attempt to embrace it and use it on the War Boars.
So, upon agreeing to the plan, the two quickly descended towards the War Boar Herd while attempting to identify who was their big boss among the herd. However, they looked almost the same and the hunters had no choice but to take a step back and examine their behaviour before attempting to mind control the two seniors of the herd.
Thankfully, it did not take long to see who were the ones controlling the herd but to their surprise, the leaders were actually smallest sizes among them and it would eventually be to the hunters' advantage as well. This could enable them to ride swiftly out of the forest without too much of a hassle while the rest of the herd mindless rushed their way out.
"Are you ready?" No.2 asked No.7 as they located who would mind controlling the beasts. No. 7 nodded her head as she slowly cocked her wand rifle in order to make sure that there would be little sound coming from her instead.
And with a deep breath, the both of them simultaneously cast their mind control techniques onto the two small sized leaders in the herd, immediately gaining control of their movements and minds.
To their surprise, it was a task that did not require too much trouble and they proceeded with the second part of the plan.
