Alasha shouted in anger, "I said, all of you go back. This is an order."
Although this woman was clearly shorter than most of the miners and had a comparatively delicate build, she possessed an extraordinary power of deterrence. All the miners hesitated for a moment and then, carrying their picks dejectedly, retreated to the entrance of Old Axe Village's cavern, casting uneasy glances this way.
Alasha stepped onto the city wall and said, "I'm here now, can you release my people?"
The middle-aged woman was true to her word and let go.
The freed guards hurried to Alasha's side.
Alasha waved her hand and said, "You go back first, I have something to discuss with this lady."
"Yes, ma'am, if there's anything, just give me a call." The guard didn't dare to look back and ran hurriedly to the crowd.
Not until the guard had walked away did Alasha furrow her brows and say, "I still don't know how to address you, ma'am. How did you learn my name?"
