The encirclement was completed.
The Star Foxes had successfully gone one full circle around Ress' territories and they were able to lure the demons around Ress before an opening at the southern tip of the barrier was available for them to go through.
Both No. 4 and 8 had also been briefed about the secret mission when they reported back that there were demonic presences at the southern borders of Ress. They had no idea what was in the minds of the higher ups or their king but they could only trust that what they were doing was the correct thing.
In theory, they should not need to worry about a single thing especially since no citizens of Ress had been hurt by this manoeuvre but they were ultimately humans and they still do care a tad bit more than other human beings could be killed by this act. But at the same time, they worried a little too much considering how almost every single kingdom that shared borders with them was at the edge of Ress' Isolation borders.
