Rare got a bit of XP from the knights she crushed earlier. However, the three players just now had given her absolutely nothing.

"That's weird... Those three were clearly—well, two of them at least—stronger than the knights, I thought. Was there some reason I didn't get any XP from them?"

She thought it over while going around storing Wayne's left-behind items in her inventory, the drops from Yoroizaka. However, she didn't have enough data to narrow down the possible reasons right now.

"Oh well, I can just think about it again the next time it happens."

Having taken care of the few remaining players who made up Wayne's group as well as the capable-looking knights, Rare once again [Summoned] a large number of adamantite soldiers as well as Sieg within the city. They ran around dealing with any knights or soldiers while doing their best to avoid destroying any buildings.

But first, there was something else that had to be done. And that was to find and neutralize the inns and any other possible respawn points.

The three players Rare just killed should have all died in the first battle as well. The fact that they had gathered back in the same place before she got back meant that they must have respawned in the capital.

Since she summoned living object and undead monsters, [Mental Magic] skills wouldn't be very effective, but she had to be wary of soul stones now. Even if that guy couldn't get any more, he did say that he had four left. Which meant that, in the worst case, up to four of her followers could be [Controlled]. Those four would require four of her other troops to handle, meaning up to eight units could be considered incapacitated for a short period of time. She had to be careful.

And that Gil player, he was currently quite powerful based on what Rare had seen. He might be at the same level as an adamanleader, or perhaps even stronger than one. Thinking back to the first event, she could infer that he must have put in quite a lot of work and earned a lot of XP. She evaluated the other players she had encountered in both events as the same. She couldn't let her guard down around them.

"I need to bring down the capital, destroy this kingdom, and earn much, much more XP. After all, I could be attacked by any number of players working together. On my side, though, if I were to be defeated, my entire army would immediately crumble. Hm, coop play..."

Rare had never experienced it. At least not in this game.

"...I don't have any... Wait no, I don't have many friends..."

She wasn't really jealous. However, simply from a rational perspective, in order to minimize risk, she was thinking it could be a good idea to find a single other player to have as a collaborator.

"...I wonder where I could even find a monster player. I don't think they tend to use the forums very much..."

It would be nice if there were any players who enjoyed extravagantly crushing human cities like she was doing now. If she could add on another thing, they should also understand the advantages of pretending to be an event boss; it would be great if this person also got carried away acting out their mischief.

"Yeah, there's no one out there like that. Maybe if I went to another country... Well, first I've gotta finish tearing down this country."

After this, no one would be coming to the Great Liebe Forest anymore. That's because the city near it no longer existed. The same was probably true for Treu Forest.

In which case, if Rare wanted to earn more XP, then she would have to turn this place into a city of death as planned, then she could wait for more prey to come to her. If the capital of a kingdom was completely swallowed up in monster territory, there was no way the surrounding countries would just sit back and watch. That's why she was counting on news of this event to spread all across the continent.
