Rue Faces the Last Guardian

Rue was ready.

She only had to kill the last Guardian to be finally able to escape the tower.

The same tower that had trapped her for such a long time...

And she was finally ready.

She had the most amount of blood she had ever had circling her system, was well-rested, and was even feeling confident.

And being as prepared as she could ever feel, Rue opened the door.

Inside was a man with white/yellowish hair. He was sitting in the middle of the room, and as the door opened he turned around and spotted Rue.

"Well well well, the little princess finally woke up from her daydream. Must I assume that what I heard was not your scream?" he said.

Rue stood tall and proud. Anxiety had already left her entire body.

She still could not perform the technique of her teacher, as practice was needed to adjust to the different bodies, but she had learned how to use a sword.

And so, with little hesitation, she unsheathed her blade.

The man got up and into a fighting stance.
