The fight continued and after thirty minutes the winner was decided. It was hard to tell if it really was a win because of the difference in age and physique.
The little boy didn't have enough stamina and lost due to it, but still, she fought with their commander twenty minutes more than the vice-commander could. She was better than him and the commander was serious too.
The soldiers were stunned. They only looked at these two that just finished fighting. Their mind was blown away by the boy.
Xin Huo looked at the girl with satisfaction and offered a helping hand to help her get up. Lou smiled warmly at him and accepted his offer. She was all sweaty and sticky and so was he. They didn't have time to take a deep breath so, they gasped fast.
Soon they returned to the state before the fight. Still taking a break they slowly went back to his study room. Just when they were on their way back his right-hand man come to report actions in the northern part of the county. He was quite surprised that a little boy was with their commander.
"Commander!" shouted the man and continued, "The reports are here!"
Xin Huo looked at the man that shouted and nodded his head. The man followed them to the study room. When they were there Xin Huo looked at Lou and said, "You should go and change"
Lou looked at him and answered, "Can I take a shower somewhere?" The without waiting for a reply she added "And, can I borrow some clothes? These are soaked in sweat and is uncomfortable now."
Xin Huo looked at the little girl before him and responded, "There are some robes in the room behind you, and if you want a shower then the door at right is the bathroom". He wanted to see her reaction, but she just departed to where he said, leaving these two men alone.
'Just who was that boy, that the commander let in his private room?' thought the man deep in his heart and then he woke up from his daze. "There is some trouble in the reports!"
"Is it the Nau kingdom again?" asked Xin Huo with a tried, but still fierce expression. The troubles in North are always caused by Nau kingdom.
Beside the Xin kingdom in the center and Nau kingdom in the north-east, there is still Ning kingdom in the sought-west. Compared to the Nau kingdom that likes troubles and wars, the Ning liked to live in harmony and peace.
Just when the faces went seriously to discuss what to do the door opened with a great BANG!
"Brother Huo!" whined Lou and continued, "Everything in there is too big for me!" Xin Huo couldn't take it and busted in laughter. The man beside Xin Huo was amazed that the little boy could make their ice-cold commander laugh.
When he saw that she started to pout he answered, "Want me to send someone to shop some robes in your size?"
"No! Just give me a good knife and I will make one from what is there!" stated Lou as she held out a hand to her brother Huo. He gave up arguing before it started and gave her his hidden dragger.
'Just who was he' thought the man that was totally ignored.
