While Ainsley was resting, the 8 guards who ran away went to a nearby hidden base and met their family's reinforcement there.
"Commander!" One of the guards approached the reinforcement troops' commander while catching his breath.
"Danny? You're still alive? I thought all of you would be massacred!" The commander got off his mount and patted Danny's shoulder.
He truly didn't expect there were still some guards alive…
"We were lucky, you know. We went to the tower when the massacre happened and after that, we use a hidden path to come out of the tower and exit the valley."
Each family had their own secret path to exit the Roid Valley without using the entrance. That way, if there's an emergency, they could save their leaders or something.
"Hum, so you said that the family who attacked you brought 100-ish people?" The commander let Danny rest while also asking him things.
