"Aini, don't shake your head. If one-hundred of your most trusted subordinates were killed, what would you do?" Saleen rebutted when he saw Aini looking indignant.
"This is a battlefield, deaths are bound to happen."
Without any change in expression, Saleen said, "Even though the age of cavaliers has passed, I am willing to pay the ransom if they have imprisoned those swordsmen. They have massacred my men, every single one of them. Am I still supposed to do a cost and benefit analysis? They have to pay the price, no one shall even think of staying alive."
Saleen went to look at the bodies personally. Many of these swordsmen did not resist. They had obviously surrendered, yet they still got killed. This was something which Saleen could not tolerate.
