"Bam!"

The moment Landon was out the door, he immediately came face to face with several guards who were currently on their way to the exit.

Both sides paused for a moment before the enemy hurriedly swing their swords at Landon.

'Snipe! Snipe!'

Landon hastily used his silencers to do the job, sending all those around him falling like logs of wood.

'Bam!'

But how could it be that easy?

"You!

Who the hell are!"

Immediately, several other guards who were also on their way to the exit appeared from behind.

They quickly saw their men dead on the ground and pulled out their swords to defend themselves against this intruder.

Landon rolled his eyes heavenwards and took them out in a heartbeat.

'Snipe! Snipe!'

'Urghhh... What a drag!' He thought while clearing out more incoming guards from behind.

And as he cleared, he also slowly advanced to the front as well.

The commander who had been keenly observing all hallways that led to the main exit, quickly noticed Landon's black attire.

How could he not?

After all, this was the man responsible for today's ordeal.

He calmly watched Landon walk towards the exit as if he was taking a stroll, and felt like beating the bastard up to a pulp.

How hateful!

He steadied his sword and quickly tried to observe this foe of his.

Wait!

Where were the prisoners?

His eyes quickly scanned the area, and he soon realized that the prisoners had probably been kelt somewhere within the base.

Good!

So far as they were still in the base, that was truly all that mattered.

He didn't want to risk any of them escaping tonight.

He squinted his eyes at Landon and couldn't help but focus more on his every move.

For this fellow to show up alone, meant that he had something up his sleeves.

So he couldn't get overly confident with this bastard.

Luckily, he had checked the exit properly and had confirmed that there was no black powder lying about anywhere.

So the chances of getting blown up again were really low.

In his mind, the previous incident only happened because this foe of his had already secretly covered the scene with numerous barrels of black powder.

And all that time that he spent talking, was just buying them time for the black powder to blow up.

Yes!

That was the only logical explanation for it all.

But now that he had personally checked this exit/entranceway, he was utterly sure that this bastard wouldn't be doing that trick again tonight.

And in a way, he was right.

As Landon didn't want to blow up the place and make it collapse just yet.

So, for now, they were safe from getting blown up.

.

Tension filled the air and everyone's emotions were now out and about.

As Landon calmly advanced, time seemed to freeze up as the guards anxiously observed him.

The archers all pointed their arrows towards him, and the warriors had already unsheathed their swords in preparation for battle.

"Boy!

Give it up!

We are over 600 and you are just but a single person.

I have to admit, what you did was truly deserving of my respect.

But you see, this is where your madness ends.

Surrender calmly, and we might even consider letting you join our group.

Think wisely boy, this is your last chance.

And remember, no more tricks or else...!" The commander said sternly.

If the brat before him could stop playing tricks on them, then that would be for the best.

After all, he didn't want to lose more men than he already did.

As for letting the brat join their gang, of course he was serious!

Such a rare talent would definitely be useful for their boss.

For sure, he would first imprison him and control the brat's mind, making him a slave to their master, before he allowed such an unruly character out.

Landon just stretched his shoulders a bit as if he were warming up, before finally looking at the commander nonchalantly.

'What an arrogant prick', everyone thought.

The commander looked at his actions and felt a burst of rage within his chest.

Never in his life had he been disregarded by someone of a lower status than he was.

Dammit!

"Boy!

Speak up now, or die

My time is limited!!!"

"I'm glad you brought that up.

Because my time is also limited too.

You see, at the stroke of midnight, Cinderella has to leave the ball.

So I truly hope that we can wrap this up fast.

After all, I too need to get back to my fairy kingdom as well.

So how about this, all of you can come at me together."

--silence--

"Bahhahahahahhahahaha!"

Everyone laughed for a bit and looked at him as if they were truly looking at a fool.

Did he really think that he could take them all at once?

Even the commander couldn't help chuckling a bit.

The fool before him had to shield to block the arrows, and neither did he had a sword to block any incoming sword attacks.

So how would he take them down?

He had thought that the brat might have some tricks up his sleeve.

But who would've known that the idiot had come here on a fool's errand?

Fine!

Since he wanted to die that much, then why not give it to him?

"Silence!

Boy!

Since you're brave, here!

Take this sword and don't say that I didn't let you die righteously."

"Ugh... Thanks, bro!" Landon said while picking up the sword playfully.

"Well, you heard the man.

He's very eager to die.

So archers, fulfill his wish!"

"Yes, Commander!" The archers said in unison, before focusing on Landon again.

As for those with swords, they just chuckled and decided to watch the idiot die stupidly.

Truly a fool!

.

"Ready!

Aim... Fire!"

'Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup!

Immediately, hundreds of arrows were sent towards in a flash.

And everyone just crossed their arms and scuffed at the fool before them.

"Hehehhehe... Serves him right!"

"Hmph!

In his next life, he'll learn not to be too c.o.c.ky before his enemies."

"That's right!

He....."

(0□0)

Everyone blinked again and tried to make sure that what they were seeing was real.

Did the brat just destroy all those incoming arrows with just a few sword moves?

How was that even possible?

Could swordsmen really do that?

"F***!

Did you see that?"

"Am I blind, or did he just really destroy all those arrows with his sword and came out unscathed?"

"Dammit!

Just who the hell is this guy?"

Everyone's previous arrogant expressions had all turned to those of ghastly ghouls.

Their faces were all distorted from shock and anxiety, as they now feared that maybe this brat would really have the skills to kill them all.

Even the commander trembled a bit when he saw Landon's confident smile.

More than anything else, he was truly regretting the fact that he had given Landon a sword earlier on.

son of a b**ch!

"What the hell are you all waiting for?

Take him down now.

It's either he does, or we die.

So take him out now!!!!!!!" The commander said frantically while slowly taking several steps back.

This fellow was definitely not human!

Landon on the other hand, looked at the incoming crowd and smiled playfully.

Tonight was going to be a bloody one.
