“I will follow your will.”
To be honest, I was a bit taken aback by her response. It was because of her terrified eyes that were staring at me.
I did not say much before heading out, since her words could be contradictory to her actions. If an actual battle were to arise, they could run away. Heading outside, many of the Green Skins looked towards me. Seeing me armed, they cleared a way for me with their uneasy expressions locked onto me.
Soon, Ragia left the tent and announced.
“We will fight together. We will fight together with Blood Dagger and achieve victory. We will regain our honor.”
It was a small voice, but it was enough to convey the message to the rest of her subordinates. To fight together with me. I never knew Ragia would decide on this choice, but it was good. As such, a few of the females that were not of the same thought as Ragia, began to slowly back away.
I heard how the group was breaking apart, but for it to reach this extent. I never imagined there would be someone who could willingly ignore the words of their leader, whom has led their group until now. In the end, a few actually turned their backs and began to flee. Ragia did not try to stop those who were fleeing.
The remaining ones were Ragia, those who followed her, and myself. A few were already preparing for battle, as others were raising their weapons in anticipation of the humans.
“For Victory.”
It seems she was an Assassin, as she held two daggers in each hand while she stared at me. They were eyes without confidence, and despite being nervous, she had already decided to follow me. The remaining members were only about ten in total. Though the humans weren’t rushing over here like last time, they were however, slowly advancing over to this tribe, as they probed threateningly.
As if they were casting magic, the mana began to rise around the surroundings. They were intending to make the first preemptive strike with a flame spell.
“Bang!!!”
A thunderous sound exploded over as one of the walls was completely destroyed by the preparations for the human invaders to enter. I looked at Ragia’s eyes once more. She was still staring at me.
Seeing that, I cried out loudly.
“Victory! For Victory Only!”
The motto of the Blood Dagger Clan. Ragia with an uneasy look began to scream.
“For Blood Dagger!”
Her display of loyalty was shown. But, my shout wasn’t to test if she would echo out her loyalty amidst danger. It was a signal to the Blood Dagger Clan to prepare for war. Hearing my loud roar, voices from all over the vicinity began to shout out.
“For Blood Dagger!”
“For Blood Dagger!!”
“Victory! For Victory Only!”
“For Blood Dagger!”
As if thunder was striking down onto the ground, their voices was so loud that my ears started to ring.
Then...
Ragia’s anxious eyes instantaneously were filled with confidence. There was no sign of her fearful expression at all. She was constantly looking around her with a thrilled eyes. As if she was amused by the large, thunderous roar, she chuckled.
It could be a sign of simple joy.
It could also be a sign of relief.
But...
Seeing that smile, he began to think of the possibility.
‘So you knew.’
“Aughhhhhhhhhh!”
“Run...run away!”
“Fu...ck!”
Those human screams and cries were continually heard, which meant that the battle was going well. It was evidence that the Blood Dagger clan was fighting and enduring well. Then, I clashed against a guy who was holding a large shield, which had endured up until this point.
I slammed my greatsword into his shield, before pounding his shield down with my Ancient Flame. He was using whatever strength he could to absorb the blow.
Then a, ‘sizzle,’ sound could be heard, as the heat caused him to drop his shield. With the guy screaming, I ruthlessly thrust the sword into the man’s face.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhk!”
This battle was a little lacking in some ways, when I think about it. When I had reached this conclusion about the battle being dull, the voices of the humans began to dwindle down, as those who were still enduring, had their heads completely smashed in by Gark and Hark.
In the end, the last remaining guy abandoned his weapon trying to escape, and the Three Goblin Sisters soon finished the battle by pulverizing his head.
“Woaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Victory! Victory!”
“For Blood Dagger!”
Blood and organs filled the floor. It had been a while since I had experienced such a battle. Seeing the overjoyed faces of the clan members, I slowly scoured my surroundings. Ragia with an uneasy expression, including Mev and Hayeon. There was also bit of a strange expression from Hakajin. Then, looking towards me with an exhausted expression, she spoke.
“Th...thank you. About those...that fled...”
Seeing her bow her head and spewing such gibberish, I laughed before I grabbed her throat high into the air.
“Fled...Ahhhk!”
As if she was befuddled at what was transpiring, those that followed Ragia tried to approach her in the hope of saving her. However, they were bound down by Gark, Hark and the other subordinates. It seems that they had constrained them for now. Seeing how they were more quick-witted than I thought, I smiled as Ragia’s subordinates began to scream.
“Ragia-nim!”
“Ra...Ragia! Bl...Blood Dagger-nim.....what..what is this...”
“Kek....Kek...”
She was struggling, but she was not resisting. It seemed for now that she roughly knew why I was doing this. Her eyes definitely emanated that. In order to revive her expectations, I growled before speaking to her. Staring at her eyes directly, a fear-stricken, pale face entered my sight.
“You. YOU knew.”
That one remark, which contained a lot of implications. Ragia’s expression became increasingly distressed.
