Earlier that day.
"Ali, we will use the horses and the two carriages to transport everything to the base."
"Got it, big brother."
…
…
"Ok now, carefully let's guide the horses and carriages inside. Thankfully this ..cave is big despite it being underground and man-made."
"Easy….hya….easy….relax lads….relax…"
"..."
"...what? They relaxed, didn't they?"
"....yeah."
….
….
"Check the ammunition. How many bullets did you lose."
"Like always big brother, one target one shot. Lost 31 bullets, and 9 electric ones. So I'm left with 269 bullets and 41 electric bullets."
"Lost 11 live bullets for the archers and their commander, and 6 electric bullets for that noble and his bodyguards. Still left with 289 bullets and 44 electric bullets."
"It's a gold number comparing to what we gained."
"Indeed, 20 horses, two carriages full of resources and gold, and prisoners."
"Now, for the prisoners, what should we do to them."
"Of course, kill the noble after gaining information from, and recruit the rest."
"Ok, let me handle the recruiting task, big brother. While you can torture the information out from the noble's mouth."
"let's do that."
…
…
...
Splash!
"Hwa!! Haaa!!"
"Finally awake."
"Who are you! Black clothes!! You are those demons!!"
"Is that what you call us? Well, if it was in the past, that could have been okay. But now, we are one of you, how can you say that about us."
"What are you! How can you kill with just a sound!"
"What killed you is your greed, not a sound. Now let's be serious, I ask, you answer."
"Do you know who am I!!"
"As if I care, and didn't I tell you to just answer when I ask?"
"Aaaaaaaa!"
"That's called electricity, you like it."
"Aaaaaaa!"
….
….
"Aaaaaaa!"
"Master!"
"Lord!"
"Ahh, he started….well I guess I should start here as well. You are 14, at least I should get 10 of you, it will be better to get all of you though."
"What did you do to master!"
"Do you know who he is?!!"
"You will regret it!"
"Do I look like I care? In my entire life I only cared and will only care about one person, and that's my big brother."
"You will regret it!"
"You are dead! Can't wait to laugh at you!"
"Do you guys want to learn what electricity means?"
"Electricity?"
"Yes, electricity! Let me show you."
"What are you doing...Aaaaaa!"
"Aaaaaaaaa!"
"No! Aaaaaaa!"
"Let's see how tough you are!"
