QT: Against My Will

229 4.53 – Die for you – Dangerous Angels

Zhao Rong stared deeply into Fei Lan’s eyes, threatening her with his deep voice, “Try to run away from me, and see what I’ll do to you.”

He put back his mask and left the tent. Tian Shi once asked him why he killed his wives; she got silence as a response.

“Why did this prince kill them?” he asked himself. His question brought chills to the female guard that followed him silently in the shadows. Zhao Rong’s head turned towards the capital city, “What this prince hates the most are women that scheme against us...”

‘What?’

‘I didn’t even hear his answer! ?’

A few days ago...

Taking a break near a river, Edan rested her body against a tree and rolled up her sleeves, showing her arm in Ru Quan’s direction, preparing herself for an upcoming pain.

.....

“What is that?” asked one of the survivors from the Triweria kingdom.

“Snake venom,” answered Ru Quan; calmly injecting the ancient syringe into Edan’s veins. Xuan Mu’s fear or better to say hatred for snakes, developed in his past life. Ru Quan used to be a test subject before he was sent to fight for life in the arena against other slaves and prisoners as a form of entertainment for the rich. To strengthen his body, they had been injecting or scratching venom and poison into his skin, making him swallow some of the world’s deadliest animals, mainly snakes.

When the men heard Ru Quan’s words, they retreated in terror, and drew out their spears in his direction, “Get away from the General’s son!”

Before their general and his family was executed, their general told them that one of his blood relatives could still be alive. Edan, their general’s daughter that liked to disguise herself as her little brother, never returned after she sneaked out of the house for a ride on her horse-having no idea that the same Edan would try to save a group of girls from a slave trafficker, only to be captured herself. Just like Fei Lan’s case, a kidnapped daughter equaled her future being destroyed. This group of men was sent by the late general to look for her whereabouts in secret.

They heard some rumors about a few kidnapping incidents in the capital city. The one who caught their attention was a courtesan in training, called Tianshi Eshe from Triweria kingdom. Famous for her red hair, she disappeared after the Tuis searched out Hasan’s mansion. Who would have thought that along the way, they’d stumble upon Edan?!

During a separate interrogation, Bing Shi persuaded the girls to reveal their identities. As for Edan, her identity was truly unique, keeping her birthplace, she changed her name into Eshe. If some survivors really existed, they would try to look for the general’s daughter, right? When Fei Lan refused to play Eshe, Bing Shi had to replace her with another girl. After Fei Lan teleported away, Bing Shi planned out Edan’s disappearance. Then, it would be her turn. Sadly, someone interrupted her plans again.

“You are no match for him,” said Edan. This man’s mood swings were maniacally unstable. Under a facade of training, he would make her go through great torment. Seeing Ru Quan standing up with a gloomy aura, she shouted out at her father’s men, “Scram!”

Ru Quan was unhappy, he needed to let out the built-up steam. Another random guard was leering at his woman again! Bing Shi, who was playing with her dogs outside, sent the guard away for inappropriate behavior, making the guard help out in the construction of Eliaros. Her lowered security was caused by her fiance’s jealousy.

“I’m borrowing your men... for training,” Ru Quan grabbed Eshe’s training staff. Using it like a spear, he speeded toward the exposed opponents, quickly reading their habits and patterns of attacks. Because they could be reading him as well, he needed to calculate all the possible outcomes as well. “You always go for a low hit first.” To prove himself, the moment the other man struck low, Ru Quan sidestepped. Punishing the other man for a bad habit, he countered quickly with a fast stab towards the chest, and even faster return to prevent the opponent from grabbing his staff-like a snake striking and then whipping back out of reach.

The guy fell on the ground, coughing uncontrollably, he held his chest in agony. If it were a spear, he would be far gone.

One down. Another to go. Feigning an opening to make his opponents take the offensive, Ru Quan baited them into an approach and fooled them into doing an attack he wanted them to do, teaching them at the same time. Bing Shi observed dazedly as she took down mental notes.

If somebody put Yi Zen or Ziek against Ru Quan in hand to hand combat as well as melee combat, with spears, lances, pole weapons, bows, crossbows, and other weapons, the one with an upper hand would be Ru Quan, for whom melee combat was his bread and butter. After all, they didn’t send modern armies into the field to fight hand to hand with the enemy. In modern society, the survival of the fittest was no longer part of human life. They lived in a time of law, morality, and beliefs. There were many rules and limitations in boot camps alone.

Ru Quan grew up in a society that could leave an unwanted baby to die in the street and not think anything of it, impale thousands of people on spears and walk by as if this was just an every-day occurrence. In his society, this was acceptable. The slaves and warriors were ripping each other’s testicles off long before Krav Maga. Ancient times were nasty and brutal, so he had to learn how to be just as nasty and brutal.

When his army invaded a kingdom, it was common for the opponents to leave their women and daughters behind as the men retreated into the forests. Why? To slow his invading army, which would literally stop advancing because it was r?ping the women left behind. How could he allow it? It was a psychological tactic to wear down an enemy, mentally, to make them give up. To win a war faster, with the least amount of casualties on his side.
