Chapter 107 (1/2)
Suk suk.
Woosh.
After a long time, the Torlot Fortress became noisy since the parade ground was being used.
Knights and soldiers, gathered under their commanding officer, were surprised to see Darren’s body tied up.
After being tied up for quite some time, he got his consciousness back and began to shout at the men looking at him.
“Free me! I’ll let my father know of this and give that Rakan guy the real lashes!”
“Where is that dog barking from?”
Luke simply disregarded Darren’s intimidation and asked Philip for the whip made of ogre skin.
“Will you do it yourself?” Asked Philip.
“It is probably the most effective in that manner.”
Except for the ones who would deliberately go out for patrolling, all the other troops were gathered in the parade ground.
Luke’s intention was to make an example out of Darren to put the others in line, and he knew that everyone would take their jobs seriously if he did it himself.
Right when Luke was about to wield the whip.
“What is all this?!”
“Free Sir Darren right away!”
Suddenly five men appeared and blocked the others.
They were all wearing a breastplate with a scale crest. They ran over to the parade grounds after knowing their uniforms were out of order.
“You guys must be?” Asked Philip.
“We are the knights of Count Juke. Free him and apologize to him right away.”
They were all being very arrogant and asking for Darren to be released.
“Are you the attendants of Darren?” Asked Philip.
“That is right. Please release him before we report this to the Count.”
Luke heard that and was irritated. He then swung the whip.
Crack!
“Ahhk!”
Darren’s skin was burnt when the whip touched his skin.
“Bleed, bleeding!”
“This bastard!”
The five knights rushed toward Luke.
‘Hut, caught you guys.’
Luke needed to make an example to keep the soldiers on their feet.
So Darren was sentenced to be whipped. However, he didn’t mind if there was anything more effective.
He used the whip on all the five knights and hoped that it was going to be an example to Darren.
“Huh, now you’ve really done it!” Shouted one knight.
The five knights were the ones who constantly helped Darren.
There were two of them who could handle Aura—Experts—and the other three had great sword skills.
So they thought they could easily overpower the young man and save their young lord.
However, they were on the side which was getting hurt by the whip.
The whip moved in all directions. It struck all the five knights like a snake going after its prey.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Screams and cries came out of their mouths along with their tears running down their eyes.
