If we fail to kill the crab or hold back the crab it will definitely chase after you guys for the egg so better take it to the lakeside, the crabs wouldn't come near the lake.”

All his friends solemnly nodded and meditated all their roles with utmost focus; all of them had absolute trust towards Quinn, so there hesitation for accepting the plan.

”Lastly, Lardo you're also responsible for rescuing and retreating the injured ones, so always be on full alert.”

The last part was actually for Boris, all of them knew Boris's recklessness and he's bound to have grave injuries after fighting. So he asked Lardo to pick Boris while they were retreating. But this also means they will have to leave Quinn to find himself against the crab, like war deserters.

Sure thing the dumb Boris didn't suspect a thing but Kallis and Lardo were astute and sharp enough to see through Quinn hidden meaning. Boris was just cluelessly nodding while Kallis and Lardo were frowning.

Just as Kallis was about to refute Quinn stopped him.

”I'm informing you guys the plan not asking for suggestions, so you better follow as planned.”

Quinn coldly reprehended his friends like he used to boss around his subordinates. Though he was friendly and affable in this life Quinn had to nail his plan into these kids to save unnecessary troubles.

Quinn had a clear understanding of Boris's temper; Boris can be more stubborn than a mule, turning his back to his comrades is one thing he was absolutely against, after all, he's a typical muscle head. Once he learns the entire plan he's surely made a great fuss out of it.

It was like the time itself froze, Kallis never expected something this dramatic. Lardo was utterly shocked at Quinn's sudden flare of temper; none of them have ever seen an angry Quinn. Quinn would always put his poker face and clear eyes.

Like always Boris was more clueless than just born, he's yet figured out whether Quinn is really scolding them or kidding with them.

*cough* Quinn broke the silence with a cough and regretted slightly overdoing.

”Whatever just stick to the plan. Boris follows my lead, Lardo and Kallis position yourselves behind this rock and only show up after my signal.”

Quinn quickly shot the orders as he moved towards their target. His roommates woke from the stupor and quickly followed Quinn's orders. Kallis and Lardo leaned against the giant rock while Boris followed Quinn, Quinn sneaked near the crab.

”Boris that's the Crab, you see that bulge over there that the point. Strike it with your most powerful punch and pull back to recover a bit before engaging the crab.”

”After that try to draw the crab from the nest, I'll sneak attack and give a fatal blow.”

Quinn instructed Boris while they were moving, the location was a just five-minute walk from the giant rock but Quinn and Boris were sneaking to the crab, they were slower than a snail.

Though Elgar assured that the crabs wouldn't wake unless they were forcefully torn apart from their nest holes; Quinn didn't want to take his chances with his first hunt after rebirth, moreover it would be a miracle if the crabs managed to sleep in between the ruckus his friends were making.

Boris followed Quinn instruction down to the word; he sneaks next to the crab and steadied his stands. He tightened his muscles and took a deep breath, all his muscles were wiggling and shivering to show the extreme pressure they were handling.

Then he drew his hand, did a few trails to practice his aim and then sent an ear piercing and wind-shattering punch at crab's shell.
