After eating his lunch along with the still upset Lori, he went back to his room. Today he would be meditating and ruminating about the plan he would take tomorrow. He was a transmigrated person, he wouldn"t just go fight and pray everything goes well.The first thing would be, the disguise. He would use the disguise mask he had, to change his facial features, and then after he would wear a helmet. As for his armors. He wouldn"t be wearing them.
He had bought new ones along with a couple he had got as a reward from the s.p.a.ce. He would be wearing those instead of his usual ones, all for the sake of staying low. He didn"t want to be spotted this early by either the demons or the humans.
And after successfully finding the unit he would fight on, he would follow their orders, to blend in well. He had already heard from the old man, that usually in the first attack by the demons in the year, they send some generals to lead the volunteers like him.
He said they would usually send a rank 5~6.
And those volunteers, like him, would have to be in a guild to be chosen, plus they won"t take in any below rank 3. Such measures were taken to make the number of casualties as low as possible. After all a rank 2 in such a war will only die helplessly.
Although he didn"t know why they limited the volunteers only to those affiliated with guilds, he could guess that they wanted to limit the unknown factors from the human side. After all, everyone in a guild can be proven to be a human by reading the guild card.
Meanwhile those unaffiliated will remain an unknown factor.

As for him, the old man had talked with the guild master of the swordsmen guild to let him join. He was as such waved from the test that he would have to normally take.
The guild card he got was silver, and had on the back a half sheathed sword. It was the same as the one Jeff had shown him when he first entered the Yozzalera kingdom. It had his name, race and rank.
[Name: Ned.
Race: Human.
Rank: 4.(Expert)]
And the old man had explained to him that, when someone from his guild was in danger the card will glow red and point at the direction of the said person. The old man said that he should help any person if he could, but in the case of the card glowing he should prioritize his guild mates. And Ned thought of that as only natural.
He would try to stay low as much as he could, but if his allies were in danger then he would intervene.
.........
The morning came quickly and Ned woke up from his meditation feeling refreshed. Today was the big day. It was currently 5am and they were supposed to gather at 8am.
He headed downstairs and ate breakfast with Lori who kept cautioning him about many things, but thankfully didn"t try to stop him from going anymore.
He also bid the old man goodbye, to which he just reminded him to not let his guard down, even among allies. He had already told him as such many times before. Ned replied yes and then took off to the meeting place outside the wall.
Once he got outside the city Wrester, he started sprinting using the three steps of Hermes to boost his speed.
Such a journey that usually would take at least 2 days by carriage only took Ned two hours and a half.
Once he got out the wall, he found a huge number of people, some were wearing military clothes, and were in a formation, while some were standing in small groups, or alone.
While looking around, someone spotted him and came to him, and Ned saw that it was a guy wearing military garbs and had black rimmed gla.s.ses.
"Excuse me, are you here to volunteer in the defense against the demons?"
"That"s right" Ned replied.
"would you show me your guild card" the person said.
Ned nodded, however he chose the option of hiding his name and face from the card before he"ll show it to him.
Although he had already changed his facial features the card still had his real face. Or so he though but once he brought the silver card from his pocket he was shocked that it had his disguised face now and even his name was the alias he had decided to go with in this fight. And he wondered if it was due to the mask of disguise.
And so seeing this he didn"t feel like hiding his face, or name anymore.
The guard once he read that the race was human. He wrote his name and rank in the paper he was holding and after that said that he is free to wait In a place nearby for the general to come.
Ned nodded and went to stand nearby some trees.
