The lonely caravan was long gone from that place and the only thing the members doing were mourn.
But Alice was different, he was thinking of something. He was thinking what to do next.
He had a plan and to execute it, he needed some preparations and for that purpose he had sent Ashura with Beelzebub away for something and now was waiting for their return.
Half an hour passed.
The sky became cloudy and the sun hid behind the clouds. The weather became more cold and the servants started shivering in cold and so they lit up another campfire to provide them heat.
The river was flowing at it's constant speed and Alice was standing at the edge of the river with hands crossed. He was looking inside the clear river.
The birds were returning to their nests as the sensed rainfall.
The fishes inside the water were dancing like before and the flowers which were blooming, they were moving with the wind happily.
The insects crawling on the ground were returning to their hole as they sensed the rainfall too.
Finally, Ashura and Beelzebub returned back to the group. Beelzebub was carrying bunch of logs on his right shoulder and Ashura was walking with his hands behind his back.
Their daggers were tucked in their pants.
Alice sensed their house presence and so moved back to look at them. Both of them were smiling and standing near the campfire.
Ashura sat down with the group while Beelzebub walked to Alice.
He looked at Alice with a charming smile while Alice just gave back his cold expressions and Beelzebub said, "Devil, we found. It's just few hundred meters away from here in the north while the other thing is around 500 metres away from here in the east. "
Alice gave a faint smile, his hands were now behind his back and he replied, "Very well. "
Then he walked toward his other servants and clapped his hands.
CLAP
Then he said, "Now, let's move on. Lilith and Persephone will go with Beelzebub to attract 'them' to 'them' while the rest will go with me to 'them' waiting for others to come. "
Shivering in cold, they all stood up, picked their weapon up and got ready to move.
After few minutes, Alice, Asmodeus and Ashura moved to east while Beelzebub, Lilith and Persephone moved to north.
It was going all according to Alice's plan.
But what was Alice's plan?
That was a question to be asked.
After walking for dozens of minute, Alice's group finally arrived at their destination.
It was raining now, the rain drops were falling on the Earth with TRIPLE sound.
The sound they made with the leaves exactly sounded like TRIPLE.
Alice's group was hiding behind bushes and taking cover from the rain inside the shadow of a big tree.
They were in a forestRight infront of them was a big cave.
They were waiting for the other group to come. The cave was rocky, it's exterior was mainly covered by small stones. There were grass patches too and a tree at it's right.
A chatter could be heard coming from inside. A dim ray of light was also coming from inside.
Around 10-15 minutes passed and finally other group came running towards the cave.
Alice swiftly came out of the bushes and Persephone spotted him.
She told Lilith and Beelzebub about Alice's location and all three of them ran to him and with him hid behind the bushes.
After few seconds, a pack of wolves came to that place. It seemed like that pack was following the other pack.
But how could that happen?
The answer is really simple, all part of Alice's plan.
When Alice saw the lonely caravan leave that place, he understood that there was no way to get on their good side, unless they do something righteous and heroic for them.
And after that, Alice thought for few minutes and asked Beelzebub to go and look for a group of a wild hostile animal. And so he found a home of a pack of wolves and reported back to Alice.
While he gave another mission to Ashura which was to go and get the location of that lonely caravan and so he got it.
Now the only part which was left of the plan was that the pack of wolves would attack the lonely caravan. Even though there are some skilled fighters in the caravan, but infront of such big group of wolves inside an isolated place—a cave with limited space.
It was nearly impossible to come out alive unless an external help comes to aid them.
The leader of the pack of the wolves had a muscular body and his body size was the highest amongst all the wolves.
Despite being a leader, he had no scar on his body showing his fighting abilities.
The pack slowly, without making any sound walked inside the cave.
They were following the dim light coming from the cave.
Alice and the servants were hiding silently. Even though there was a chance that the wolves could smell them, they were risking it all.
But there were negligible chances due to the rain.
And it doesn't matter at all as Alice's group was strong enough to annihilate the whole pack including the leader.
After a minute, a scream came out from the cave which indicated that the caravan and the wolves had an encounter finally.
Ashura questioned, "Should we go in now? "
Alice replied, "Of course not. Wait for few more minutes. "
If they move now, then what? What will be the role of this plan?
Unless there are some casualities, how can they look heroic? How can their action look righteous? Won't they be suspected?
If they moved so swiftly, won't the leader of the caravan suspect them? Why though?
It's simple, if they could move this swiftly, then they were close to the cave and if they were, why didn't the pack go after them?
Alice looked at Ashura and questioned, "Where are their horses and the stuff? "
Ashura looked at Alice and replied with a smile, "There's another cave up head. They hid them there. "
Few more minutes passed and the screams became even more intense.
Alice walked out of the bush, pulled his black blade and said, "Now we move. "
