Kharzan knew attacking indirectly was risky.
If Sirius managed to bring down too many monsters before falling or escaping, his soldiers' damage capacity would fall dramatically for maybe even days. Even more so when beasts were generally clumsier when not receiving direct orders inside their tamer.
But he considered that being so many against just one, Sirius would surely have to retreat and finally allow the advance.
'Let's see if your conceited individual power can handle overwhelming numbers,' he thought while his beasts began their advance toward where Sirius was preparing for another bombardment.
The air filled with roars, hisses, and other varied sounds of massive beasts moving toward battle. It was a rarely used and frowned-upon tactic in military confrontation... But facing an army with a single person wasn't exactly common either.
And if it worked, Kharzan would finally have a clear path to reach and support efforts at the bridge.
