[Meghnad's POV]
"Ahhhh!!!"
Following the source, I saw one bandit pulling by her hair with a cruel grin on his face. The young girl struggled, her small hands clawing at his grip, but she was no match for his brute strength. Her cries of pain and fear echoed in the clearing, fueling the storm of anger rising within me.
I gripped my sword tightly, the polished metal gleaming under the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees. "Let her go," I commanded, my voice cutting through the chaos like a blade.
The bandit turned, a sneer spreading across his face as he saw me. "And if I don't, boy? What will you do?"
I stepped closer, my gaze fixed on him. "You don't want to find out."
The bandit laughed, a guttural sound laced with arrogance. He pulled the girl closer, holding a knife to her throat. "One step closer, and she dies."
