After the army's meal, General Bho Thong along with his commanders swaggered across the holy ministry hall's, they radiated misplaced confidence as if they own the holy palace.
The generals barged inside the meeting room, where a beautiful young wearing flowing white robes sat causally beside a stone statue.
Yom Euni was just peacefully cleaning and wiping Roy's statue when a loud bang suddenly echoed across the room
She jolted violently in fright as she immediately steadied herself, maintaining her posture as if informality has become a luxury she could no longer afford.
When she saw the barging generals, she suddenly changed her expression, clicking her tongue in annoyance as if cursing the generals silently.
Yet she still forced a sweet, awkward smile, the kind that could make anyone hesitate and think back to their earlier actions, recalling everything they had done that would make anyone feel annoyed.
However, the generals did not bother with apologies or manners, because they did not see Yom Euni as a delicate, young lady, but a fresh target.
Unsettling smiles began to appear on the generals lips, only Bho Thong remained relaxed, yet his eyes were already darting around the girls body, her eyes, her hair, every edges of Yom Euni's existence scanned, calculated, studied, as if he could already tastes the excess of violating her into submission.
Yom Euni sensed the groups predatory gaze, yet her expression remained calm, almost gentle.
Bho Thong let out a relaxed, calm smile and spoke to Yom Euni with a casual tone, as if trying his very best not to express their lustful gaze.
"Greetings young lady, we gentlemen are very thirsty from our campaign to wipe out those souther bastard from Hubog town, it has been a terrible time since we had last tasted a drink. We like to shamelessly ask for the young miss if she could spare some time and serve us tea?" General Bho Thong said calmly, as if his gentle tone could hide his predatory intentions entirely.
Yom Euni let out a quite sigh, disappointment evident in her breath.
"I deeply apologize for the brave generals, " Yom Euni said gently, her sweet tone quickly mesmerized the standing generals, as if they had just heard a heavenly maiden sung, yet that thought had made their lustful intentions ignite even more.
"I am only limited to serve my master, "Yom Euni continued, "I am prohibited to personally entertain figures other than Lord Zudra. I am deeply sorry."
Yom Euni bowed deeply as she apologized, because what she said was not entirely a lie, her title as the president of the altar servers granted her immense authority and presence, making her one of the important figures who serve directly under Roy.
The generals expression immediately turned solemn, disappointment flooding in their face as they clenched their fist, ready to forcefully drag the girl out.
Yet Bho Thong stopped them immediately, stepping in right before the generals do something rediculous that could possibly cost them their lives.
"In that case, we don't mind our tea being delivered to the military barracks, we really are very thirsty you see."
Bho Thong let out an awkward smile, his lips curved into an unsettling grin rather than a reassuring one, and immediately bowed slightly toward Yom Euni, and exited the ministry.
Yom Euni let out a soft sigh, her expression full of anxiety yet her beauty still radiant, her eyes as soft as cotton, her cheeks slightly red from cosmetics, her breath sweet as candy.
She called out to the surrounding altar servers, and immediately ordered them to deliver tea to the military barracks.
The altar servers quickly bowed deeply and went off to deliver the order.
Soon, a small procession happened at the military barracks, not with slogans, no with large banners thag resembled the hardship of the people, but with plates, and on top of the plates were tea cup, a boiling pot, and several tea leaves.
Five altar servers walked casually toward the military tents, their pacing slow as they walked with absolute care, and behind them followed dozens of soldiers, armored, broad, dangerous.
They arrived at the entrance of the generals tent, where the western generals gathered and rested, the aura of inside the tent radiated something that could only be explained as...unsettling
Still, the altar servers swallowed hard, wearing anxious and horrified expression, they stepped inside the unsettling tent, while the soldiers who accompanied them remained outside, guarding the perimeter as the altar servers did their job.
Inside the tent, several low-ranking commanders and generals were already sitting in rows, their expression strange and their lips curved into twisted smiles.
The altar servers were horrified out of their wits, yet they forced themselves to maintain composure and immediately gestured to deliver the tea.
Outside the tent, several dozen soldiers from Zudrath City were all standing frozen on the tent entrance, their backs straight, their discipline overwhelming.
Just as the soldiers relaxed themselves, something sharp suddenly pierced through one of the guards back, cold, metallic, obviously deadly.
When the soldier turned his head, th western soldier already pulled out his sword and swung it toward the guards throat.
Blood sprayed violently on the ground, the brown earth were instantly painted red as the Zudrath Soldier stumbled awkwardly, holding it's sliced throat with both hands, blood gushing out from the gaps as he slowly collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
When the remaining Zudrath soldiers reacted, they were already surrounded by more than a hundred western troops, and almost instantly, they were overwhelmed by the number and were all wiped out.
Inside the tent, when the altar servers heard the commotion outside, they instinctively sensed danger and prepared to escape, yet before they could take even a single step, they were already surrounded on all sides.
"Please don't kill us." One altar server cried loudly, tears and snot dropping from her face as she begged the generals.
Bho Thong walked casually through the encircling crowd, his lips split his face in a terrifying grin, his eyes full of predatory intent.
"Don't worry, we won't kill you," Bho Thong said with a playful tone, " we'll just have fun toying with you until we are fully satisfied."
