After the explosions dissipated, the enemy\'s soldiers stopped looking at the sky and soon looked at Rain and the others without knowing what to do. The people who kept them in check are dead now, so they don\'t have that many reasons to fight anymore, but soon, they would face severe consequences for not dealing with Rain.
"Do you guys want to keep fighting?" Rain asked. "That will be fine by me. I will make sure that your deaths will be painless."
"Karla, Cor, step forward. We need to talk," Branden said.
Before long, Karla and Cor appeared while showing difficult expressions. They are the leaders now, but they didn\'t want to give the order for the soldiers to attack. It would be the same as telling them to jump into the ocean with their legs and hands tied up; it was suicide.
"... Yes, Lord Branden," Karla said.
"We aren\'t going to ask you guys to join our side, we know that it will only cause more problems to all of us, but you need to understand that we no longer can pull our punches," Branden explained. "You all should know that despite wanting his neck, Rain saved you all two times already. Those explosions would have killed hundreds, and Joanis was willing to go that far.
That being said, we also know that you have your families that would suffer if you have to fall back now, so we will only hurt you enough, take your weapons, and scatter you around if you don\'t do anything."
The group was acutely aware of the dangerous situation they found themselves in. Continuing the fight seemed like a daunting and risky task, but they understood that they had no other viable options. Reluctantly, they steeled themselves to follow their leader\'s instructions, knowing that they needed to engage in combat without any intent to take lives.
It was a difficult decision, and they were well aware that some might ridicule them for their approach when attempting to regroup later. However, in their minds, it was a far better outcome than facing the prospect of imminent death on the battlefield.
"Where is Lord Orcis and Lady Lorene?" A female soldier suddenly stepped forward and then said. "I want to talk with them."
Rain recalled Julie, the female guard who worked for Orcis and was the leader of his guard. No one could say if she was part of the guys who led the attack against Rain\'s friends and sisters. When Rain looked at the others, they just shook their heads. It seemed that Julie wasn\'t part of the problem.
"Drop your weapons and give the orders to all of your men, and then we will let you see them," Rain said. "What is your answer?"
Julie nodded and dropped her weapons, her most loyal guards did the same but some of them stepped back while looking uneasy. They didn\'t want to do that since they probably tried to attack Rain\'s friends and sisters.
"You all have half five minutes to drop your weapons," Rain added while not holding back his bloodlust. "Those who keep their weapons will face me."
The enemy soldiers found themselves on the battlefield, gripped by fear and drenched in cold sweat as they confronted the formidable aura emanating from Rain. It was an aura that left no room for doubt, suffocating them with its overwhelming presence. They couldn\'t deny the grim reality that they stood no chance against this force.
This bloodlust was unlike anything they had ever encountered. It was the embodiment of someone who had faced death head-on and narrowly escaped its grasp. It sent shivers down their spines, instilling bone-deep fear and trepidation. Faced with such an insurmountable presence, they felt powerless and defeated even before the battle had truly begun.
