Author's Comment: Lots of thought in my mind... But I can't write them like what I imagined. And I think Wang Yi doesn't sound like Wang Yi here for me. That's why I'm sorry if this part of the story was very messed up. Anyway, enjoy!

Wang Yi

I waited for Ma Chao to come to my camp in Ji Castle. Maybe he was already injured or could already die on the way to my camp.

But a few minutes later he breaks through my camp door and was already in front of me, preparing to attack me.

"You are unscathed, Ma Chao. How did you even managed to arrive here like that; passing all the obstacles inside the castle so fast?"

"I fight in the name of justice; justice will always find its way."

And so he started to attack me and I was able to avoid it, I attacked him back but he also avoided it easily. After a long time dueling, finally it was Ma Chao who won. I wasn't strong enough to beat Ma Chao.

With an injured shoulder, I took my horse and escaped. "Next time it will be different, next time I will cut your head for sure." I said as I left Ji Castle.

"Lady Wang Yi, it is better if you stop drinking all the beer here. Your injuries might not heal."

I put down probably my last glass of beer. "Master Pang De, my injuries have already healed. I was not badly hurt, everything is alright."

"That's good to hear, but you still need to get lots of rest, we are going to defend Mt. Ding Jun from Shu around next week, and Ma Chao could be there too."

"I see. Well then, I must rest and train more. But may I ask you one question Master Pang De, what do you before you attack and defeat your enemies?"

Pang De thought for a while then answered. "Hmmm, I would find information and find the weakness of my enemies. In that way, beating the enemy officers will be easier."

"Okay then, thank you master Pang De." I replied as I left and prepared to go to Shu's main camp. I am going to stalk Ma Chao and find his weakness.

That night I went to Shu's main camp quietly. Ah, there he is.

I hid behind one of the trees as I listened to Zhao Yun and Ma Chao talk around the campfire.

"Master Ma Chao, I'm glad you are safe and you managed to defeat Wang Yi at Ji castle."

Ma Chao smiled. It was the first time I saw him smile. "Hehehe, it was not a big deal. The castle defense and traps were easy to pass through and Wang Yi was easy to defeat."

How could he say I was easy to defeat!?

"I see. It's good to see now you are a strong warrior. I'm sure Master Ma Teng must be proud of you."

Ma Teng!? Ma Teng is one of the officers who were killed by Lord Cao Cao!

"Thank you, master Zhao Yun." Ma Chao replied as Ma Dai and Jiang Wei joined Zhao Yun and Ma Chao around the campfire. I escaped and went to Ma Chao's room to find more information about him.

There were many notes and scrolls, but none of it was important. There were paintings Ma Dai made, and one of them is a painting of Ma Teng, Ma Chao's father.

And what makes me very surprised is there is a painting of me. It was a painting of me using my battle armor, preparing to fight. It was beautifully painted and it really looks like me.

I was admiring the painting until I heard someone was coming to the room. I escaped again and went back to my camp at Wei.

Ma Chao's father, Ma Teng, was killed by Lord Cao Cao. That is why he killed my husband and some other Wei officers, so he could kill Lord Cao Cao.

I realized that Ma Chao is like me. His loved one is killed by an enemy.

Somehow, it changes my thoughts of him. It is like suddenly I don't want to kill him anymore; he still deserves to live like I do.

Wang Yi, what are you thinking!? You will only be a weak warrior if you think like that! Remember Wang Yi, your husband is killed by Ma Chao! Ma Chao was the one who killed your husband, the one you love! You must avenge your husband!

Maybe I'll just rest some more, let these thoughts go away and prepare for the next battle at Mt. Ding Jun.
