The battlefield remained silent for a while. A gentle wind slowly drifted across the grassy field, brushing against their sweat-covered faces.
The cool air carried the faint scent of scorched metal from the burning armor scattered around them. After the intensity of the battle, the breeze felt refreshing, easing the heat and exhaustion from their bodies.
However, none of them relaxed completely.
Even though every armored warrior had died, the group continued scanning the surroundings carefully.
Their eyes moved across the open field, looked at the distant trees, and the quiet horizon.
They had learned one important lesson in this world. Nothing was ever truly safe. A surprise attack could come at any moment.
They waited. Seconds passed. Then a full minute. But nothing appeared.
No enemies rushed from the trees, or hidden soldiers emerged from the grass. The battlefield remained completely still right now.
Then suddenly, familiar glowing text appeared before their eyes.
