Valerian rushed through the woods and quickly arrived at the spot where Valerie and Anne were. He rushed close to the spot and found Valerie standing behind Anne as the mare fended off a few attacks from a horde of bandits. The young man sighed as he dashed over and said, "Vali."
The girl turned around quickly and cried, "Big brother, these are bad people, they hurt that big tree and took him inside a magic box, and Anne is also in trouble."
Rage condensed in Valerian's eyes. He walked over, and his gaze shifted to a group of soldiers. They all wore crimson armor with a silver symbol of the Tyrant's empire. The soldiers had stopped acting when Valerian arrived and began to assess the newcomer.
Valerian patted Anne and said, "You did well. Take rest."
