There is Something Wrong with This Game

[Ruins of Archades Imperial Palace]

A day had passed since Hecate’s hands-on training session with the "Crowned."

She had led her revenants through the problematic areas they’d scouted, each place revealing something new about their teamwork.

Under Hecate's command, they learned to analyze terrain, use binds effectively, and assign roles according to each revenant’s strengths. She taught them the art of "kiting," or luring enemies strategically—an approach that used their Ethereal Form skill to weave through solid obstacles. By phasing in and out of reach, they could reposition and evade enemies with ease.

She also made Free Cast a mandatory skill for them to master, allowing for versatile spell casting that enhanced the revenants’ ability to adjust to dynamic battle situations. Once the training concluded, Hecate set them to apply their knowledge independently with their squads, reminding them to file regular reports on their progress.

For this reason, she had no plans to create more revenants for now. After all, they needed to digest the knowledge first before moving on to lead larger armies.

And then to the present.

Now, Hecate conducted her hunts in a certain area of the partially restored ruins of the Imperial Palace of Archades, which also served as her primary headquarters.

Here, the walls, ground, and ceiling were covered in a thick, fleshy membrane, and the air teemed with giant-sized Maggots. Without spiders, they are now thriving so much and respawned from the fleshy floors, walls, and ceilings every so often.
