The Same Boat

Within a few seconds, the soldiers left the field in a hurry. One could hear their deafening footsteps as they walked to the white tower in two rows of lines. Each step forward they took was in sync.

Three people remained. The security plummeted sharply. Xu An glanced at those three as he waited for the soldiers away from them.

A few breaths later, they were gone.

Xu An stepped into the field and approached one of them.

"What's he in for?" He asked.

"Kidnapped a woman, attempt of raping and killing."

"That's cruel. Why not just kill him?" Xu An pondered. He got a glare from Reizen.

"Simply killing him is letting him have an easy way out. He shall feel what that woman has to go through."

"I know but I heard he killed three otherworldly tribes? That should be something worth considering, right? You sure you want to let a powerful fighter die because of such a simple matter?"
