Chapter 8: The fate of losers.
The fight that was raging in the village of the Gor tribe had ended for a long time.
One hour.
It was the time it took at the Yorken to win the battle.
The cries of war and weapon that were embarrassed had now disappeared.
They now gave way to the cries of lamentation of the village survivors and the cries of pain of the wounded soldiers.
In total, the Yorken lost more than thirty men and had around twenty injured in their rank.
It was minimal compared to the number of victims in the enemy ranks.
After the battle, the Yorken had disarmed and tied up the rest of the enemy soldiers who had resigned themselves to fighting. There were more than fifty.
Women and children and old people had been captured and keep prisoner away from men.
Terror was read on their faces, they who didn't know what to expect.
We had torn from women all the valuables they wore. The Yorken showed off with these treasures which they considered to have deserved after this hard battle.
Sarah had been posted where the soldiers of the GOR tribe was held prisoner.
She and six other Yorken were responsible for monitoring her soldiers.
Five other soldiers from the leadership of the Q.G that the Yorken had established in the conquered village approached them.
'' I have orders from Lieutenant Shadow to send you. '' Said the soldier.
'' Eh ? And what does the chef say? ''
Soldier Yorken who asked the question smiled coldly and approached one of the men of the Gor tribe taken prisoner.
At a time, he cut his head and turned to his companions.
"This is what Lieutenant Shadow said. ''
The other Yorken soldiers smiled and also drew up their sword.
All rejoiced at the idea of killing the soldiers who had surrendered with their own hands.
They were lucky to be one of those designated by their leader to accomplish this task.
Only Sarah firmly interposed between them and the soldiers taken prisoner.
'' These soldiers went, we are not allowed to kill them. '' She said.
The Yorken were surprised by Sarah's opposition.
'' What is it telling this one? '' Said a soldier Yorken.
He tried to move forward in the direction of the prisoners but Sarah drew his sword and face him.
Four soldiers Yorken also drew their sword and set off in a combat position.
'' Pay attention to guys, you shouldn't kill him. '' Said a mage who has remained back.
"You don't worry, we're just going to have fun with her. ''
The pressure was at its height and an internal conflict could explode at any time in their rank.
'' Aaaah! ''
A cry was pushed and a soldier Yorken rushed in the direction of Sarah.
Sarah was waiting for him firmly, camping on her position.
However, a voice out of nowhere stopped them suddenly.
'' Stop it right away! ''
Lieutenant Shadow who had just arrived on the spot stopped the fight.
'' Lieutenant Shadow ... '' said a soldier surprised.
Sarah frowned.
"What's going on? '' Asked Shadow.
'' My lieutenant. We were about to accomplish the task you assigned to us when this girl interposed. ''
Shadow turned her gaze to Sarah and looked at her coldly. It intimidated Sarah who took a step back.
'' Can I know what you are doing a kid? ''
Shadow expressed himself with calm but the expression of his face could not hide his deadly intentions.
"His soldiers went. We are not allowed to shoot them down. '' Said Sarah nervously.
'' And who said that was how it worked? ''
'' ... it's the law. '' Replied Sarah.
She herself seemed to be convinced by her own answer.
Knowing the barbaric nature of the Yoroven, the law was a concept that had no meaning in their eyes.
'' Hey you! '' Said Shadow, addressing one of his soldiers. '' Do you know one of my men named "law"? ''
'' No my lieutenant. '' Replied the soldier.
'' You confirm to me that there is none of my men who bear this name? ''
'' Yes my lieutenant. ''
Shadow then turned to Sarah.
'' This soldier does not exist among my men. Therefore, it is only me who dictates the rules here. I said my soldiers will kill these prisoners and they will. You are now part of the Yoroven and you only live to serve Lord Shaka does not forget it. ''
Shadow then got closer to her.
"The orders of Lord Shaka are clear. He doesn't want any survivors so we're going to do as I said. Besides, it will be up to you to start hostilities. Take your weapon and kill me these bastards of the Gor tribe. ''
The brand on Sarah's forehead, she yelled in pain.
'' Get up and slaughter them! '' Added Shadow.
The brand's pain was so strong that Sarah ended up giving in. She grabbed her sword and turned in the direction of the soldiers taken prisoner.
She let go of a few tears by cursing her helplessness of the moment.
'' I beg you not to kill me ... ''
Said a prisoner for fear painted on his face.
'' I'm sorry ... '' Marmonna Sarah, brandishing her weapon.
Suddenly, she cut him deeply on the chest and her flabbed blood on her armor.
'' GO YOU TRAY. '' Ordered Shadow to the rest of his soldiers before leaving the premises.
The soldiers rushed over the prisoners and beheaded them one by one. They took pleasure in performing this task.
They finally felt in their elements.
Once the soldiers who had surrendered were all killed, it was the turn of women, children and old people to pass.
But before that, the Yoroven made them wear necklaces and bracelets which they themselves had made for the occasion.
Some of these necklaces and bracelets consisted of fingers, toe, eye and end of flesh of prisoners that they had coldly shot.
They were brought to the children and to the terrorized old people.
As for women, they received the intimate parties of men as a necklace.
It amused the Yorken who laughed at the outbreak in the face of the disarray of their victims. And it was all orchestrated by Shadow who admired the scene with a large smile.
The Yorken devoted themselves to all kinds of crime.
Viole, torture, humiliation, these massacres continued until sunrise.
Thus ended the attack on the village of the Gor tribe.
Sarah who had participated in her first battle had gained experience. But also, something in her seemed to have changed.
On the bodies of the victims of this village, she took an oath ...
"I ask you forgiveness for not being able to save you ... But I promise to become stronger in order to take revenge, you who died here as well as the inhabitants of my island. I will become stronger even if for that I have to plunge into the depths of darkness. »»
