Clash--!

The deafening sound of sword clashing and blood-curdling screams could be heard throughout the chaotic night.

The armed bandits who had raided the Bai armies training camp were gradually declining in numbers as the Bai soldiers slashed every pest in sight.

Commander Bai who was shifting his jeweled sword between battered bodies left and right had a devilish grin spread across his blood-splattered face.

The shining armor of the countless Bai soldiers glistened under the moonlit sky - the brilliant eyes of the magnificent lion glaring fiercely.

”You filthy bastards thought you could raid my camp and come out alive?” Commander Bai laughed darkly as he lifts up his gleaming sword towards a bloodied man on the ground.

The leader of the bandits trembled from head to toe, his breath was ragged as he stared fearfully into the Commander's gleaming eyes. His left arm was swiftly cut off causing him to scream in frightening agony.

However, the Commander hadn't granted him the precious feeling of death just yet.

He had slowly stabbed his swift sword into nonfatal parts of his body. From his kneecaps which crippled him, to his tongue being severed off.

This man was a demon!

He maintained no more face to show yet Commander Bai hadn't thought to let him die yet. He genuinely was a terrifying man.

The leader shifted his eyes towards the side seeking for his men's assistance. Yet in the end, the image of their dismembered corpses was all that was left before him.

”Haha, you're either really bold or extremely stupid to merely think you could win,” The old Commander taunted stabbing his sword into the dying man's wounded arm.

Trying to plead to be let go, the mere sound of his disturbing wails was all that was heard as his tongue was no more.

Sighing at the pitiful sight, the Commander slashes his sword down dismembering the man's head from his damaged body.

”Who's next?” Commander Bai turned his body around grinning evilly.

…

While the destruction outside took place, little Rin encountered her own problems to face.

After Ju had instantly informed her of the sudden group of bandits approaching, she had naturally thought to merely wait in a private corner of the tent and wait humbly for the violent chaos to simmer down.

She sincerely trusted Commander Bai and his capable men's considerable strength. After all, the bandits from what Rin could instantly see were clearly unfamiliar with martial arts.

She lightly chuckled upon the foolish bandits reasoning.
