The man in camouflage quickly shouts in the silent woods:
"Erva, now!"
!?
"There was another one!?" Jill quickly thought as she looked around to see, to her surprise, no one.
"Who were you talking to? No one's around-" When suddenly magical energy was felt all over her body, and then she found herself in an unknown city with tall buildings and soldiers everywhere in the streets.
"Good, the mass teleportation spell worked," he said as Jill crushed his head, leaving his lifeless body on the ground, bleeding.
As Jill looked around, she saw a tall and grey building, and people who seemed to look emotionless, as if they all had depression and couldn't hang on anymore. Seeing all this, Jill realised how grave the situation with the rat king is before she thought to herself.
"So it was a trap..." before calling the rest of her team.
BZZZ!
[Backup team, where are you?]
[I don't know, we suddenly appeared in what seems to be a city.]
[Alright, I'm going to report this to Laura.]
BZZZ!
[Laura, my team and I have currently been sent somewhere else.]
[So wasn't just us huh?] Laura said as she looked around, seeing busy streets full of people chatting and looking around and calm yellow lights in the streets, her soldiers asked her if they could look around, which Laura agreed to with a hand signal.
[What do you mean?] Jill asked her from the other side of the device, confused by what she just said.
[Swan's team reported a minute ago that the same thing happened to them.]
[So it seems that they already knew that we were coming and had prepared in advance.]
[I can see that] Jill says as she looks in front of her, seeing a man with pale skin and rat ears wearing a black suit with a green tie approach her, holding a metal staff.
"You don't seem from here." The mysterious man said as he raised an eyebrow he looking at her hip, noticing her handgun. He stayed silent, but he unsheathed a hidden dagger from the inside of his suit and asked her:
"Do you know you aren't allowed to have weapons here?"
"Yeah, I did," she coldly replied as she pulled out her handgun.
