The people I spared will tell everybody about what happened there. Next time I will ask a fortress to surrender peacefully, they would be much more inclined to.
With a sigh, I sat down on my flying sword and watched the Union gorge itself on the abundant dead bodies lying around. The first crows already noticed the feast and were circling the fortress.
In a few days, a detachment of the Purple Dragon Sect's army will come here to hold this fortress. Until this time, I had nothing to do but wait.
I let the Union be and flew out of the fortress and its stench of blood and death to make a camp in the forest nearby.
Sure that the Union will return to me eventually—there might've been meat in the fortress, but only I had its favorite cheese—I sat down under a tree and brought my current project out of my backpack.
