"Phew…"
Azel wiped the sweat off his face with the back of his hand, leaving a smear of dirt across his forehead.
The whole concept of relaxing in a clearing like this had taken far more work than he'd initially anticipated. In the end, he had shared his full plan for the Triple-Layer Pitfall Trap with the exhausted elves, breaking it down step by step until even the most stubborn among them understood their roles.
First, they would carve out huge holes approximately ten meters deep and wide enough to hold dozens of monsters at once.
These holes would have nets woven from enchanted wood fibers that would wrap around the monsters the moment they fell, preventing any possibility of escape.
Originally, Azel was supposed to descend into each hole personally and kill the trapped monsters himself.
But he felt immensely lazy about that prospect.
