'I'm heading toward the orc. But not left. Going right.'
Heading left where most mercenaries were positioned wasn't beneficial to Rowan. Because in a situation with two enemies, leaving one completely free wasn't a good decision. Instead, while Rowan himself pinned down one, it was better for the other mercenaries to quickly deal with the remaining one.
For Rowan, he just had to endure, and if the opponent was weak, he could kill them.
'If I kill them, I become more comfortable.'
If the orc was as strong as the mercenaries hesitated about, withdrawing would be easy. Because they'd want to quickly deal with four humans targeting their fellow orc rather than chase one escapee.
Thinking cowardly,
Thinking rationally,
From Rowan's position, heading down the slope to the right to target the orc was better than left. Going around alone to the side was threatening to the orc and gave humans breathing room.
"Hup!"
