Zhi Rui walked to the alpha's tent, without turning back or looking sideways. Her eyes rested on a bed made out of an animal hide.
Her vision went blurry as she walked. She tripped her leg and could barely stay standing. she forced herself just enough for one more step.
She fell on the bed. her mind went spinning.
Zhi Rui suffered a horrendous backlash from holding back the couple's suicidal attack. Her whole body suffered micro-injuries, it tormented her through the whole trip.
Her nonchalance in front of them was a way to not show weakness to a new subordinate.
Her physic alone held her standing through a three-day journey through the barbarian desert.
She wrestled the barbarians as fast as she could. So she could drop somewhere and rest.
'Hilda's notes were useful after all.' Zh Rui thought.
Hilda was a half-bred from barbarians and beastmen, And did missions of assassination in the barbarian land. She had the most accurate information on the place.
