Chapter 5

Sasuke Uchiha

If he was being honest with himself, he was surprised at the response Cirilla gave him, forced to burden a responsibility she never asked for, having a power that everyone wants to use for their own ends, a prophecy about a certain calamity that can be stoped using her powers.

He could almost sympathize with her. When his brother Itachi murdered their entire Clan he was forced to bear the responsibility of avenging his fallen brethren, when he awakened his Kekkei Genkai (Bloodline Limit) the Sharingan a lot of people wanted to use him, some like Orochimaru wants to steal his body to gain access to his Sharingan, while others like Madara and Obito wants to use him as a pawn to further their own goals, as for the prophecy he is the reincarnation of Indra Otsutsuki he like his blond friend Naruto was destined to do great things.

His inner musing was cut off when Cirilla began speaking to him again.

"So…" Cirilla began, he glances in her direction and notices that she seems nervous again.

"Does this mean you will help me?" she sounds almost uncertain, although he could feel a small tinge of hope in the pitch of her voice.

"I don't know yet," he replies, before adding "There are many things I don't know about you" he then glances at the road before continuing "or even about this world for that matter." he finishes.

He watches as Cirillas' eyes widened in surprise at his admission before quickly returning to her regular facial expression, she then nods her head before letting out a simple "hm" as her reply.

'She took that better than I thought,' he mused 'then again the Crone did say that she has the ability to traverse different dimensions and the Wild Hunt also resides on a different world altogether. I guess it wasn't that surprising for her' he finishes.

A comfortable silence graces the trio as they continue to trek the road, he glances at the sky and notices that it was already passed midday, and pretty soon the moon and the stars will encompass the sky, he was about to suggest they set up camp when Cirilla intervenes.

"I am familiar with this place," she said, "there is a village here nearby we can stay there for the night and head to Crow's Perch by morning if you want to that is?" she asks the last part letting him decide on what the course of action to take.

He nodded his head towards her before gesturing with his hand forward trusting her judgment and letting her lead, he notice Cirilla smile a little before going in front and guiding them to the village.

It was already nighttime when he finally saw the village at a distance, it has lit torches serving as light sources, some small animals running around, and a few children playing outside, overall it was nothing special.

'A farm village,' he thought while glancing at the sign that was posted along the road 'Lindenvale' if he read that correctly, as they are getting closer he begins to notice the state of the infrastructures surrounding the village, he saw some burned houses, a large hole that was being used as a mass burial for the fallen soldiers, and three hanged men on a tree with a wooden sign at the bottom that says 'DESERTERS'.

"Awful isn't it?" Cirilla said, "Emperor Emhyr van Emreis the Emperor of the Nilfgaardian Empire from the South decides to destabilize the Northern Realm, assassinating its late King, before commencing a massive invasion." she continues "When the Nilfgaard invaded they also bought them the Plague causing mass casualties on either side while trapping the general folk here forcing them to live in scraps and whatever they find" she finishes while gesturing her hands around the area.

They were already near the entrance of the village when Cirilla finishes giving him additional information on the war that is currently enveloping the land, once they can be seen by the locals, they instantly became the center of attention, many are ogling them, some folk began hiding their children, while others spat on their direction.

It was clear they are not welcomed here, he watched as Cirilla began pulling her hood even lower to hide her face and he does the same, while at the same time he pulls Gretka closer to him, in case a fight broke loose or an infected spit might hit her.

"Look a tavern up ahead," Cirilla said glancing in the direction of the large building.

He nodded his head prompting them to head into the tavern faster not wanting to stay outside any longer, Cirilla was the first to enter followed by Gretka, the other patrons couldn't be bothered to look at them. However, the moment he entered they began looking at him, sizing him up to see if he is a threat.

Narrowing his eye, he gently moves his cloak slightly, showing everyone the hilt of his sword, this made everyone look away and mind their own business.

"You two look for a quiet table," he says "I'll go buy us something to eat" he added, before glancing at the barkeep who was wiping the mugs clean with the use of a rag.

"Are we really eating here?" Gretka asks, he merely nodded his head and a smile appears on the little girl's face.

'Eating here must be a luxury' he thought, if what he saw outside was anything to go by, her parents must be struggling for them to abandon her into the woods to fend for her own. He walks straight toward the Innkeeper, who notices his approach.

"Don't want no trouble, I have chicken and ale," the Innkeeper said, he looks behind the man and notices some old-looking barrels with a wooden tap attached to them, besides the barrels are chicken meat some of them seem to be on the verge of spoiling already.

"I want three chickens for me and my companions," he says while gesturing towards the end of the tavern, "and a jug of water as well." he finishes before showing the Innkeeper a small pouch full of coins, he watches as the Innkeepers' eyes widen however he pulls his hand back before adding.

"Recently slaughtered chicken would be preferable," he watches as the Innkeeper's head nods and a smile appears on his face before taking his money and storing it under the table. He returns to where Cirilla and Gretka are currently sitting to discuss where they will stay for the night.

"So… what's the plan now?" Cirilla asks him.

"After eating here, we will set up camp in the forest," he began before adding "Staying here in this village is more trouble than it's worth," he said

"If the welcome we receive from the locals here is anything to go by, I must agree with you that staying in the forest is safer compared to here," she replies while nodding her head towards his assessment of the situation.

He notices that the Innkeeper is heading towards them holding a jar of water and what appears to be slices of boiled potatoes. He slightly narrowed his eye at this, he never ordered the potatoes.

"Here you go, I added some potatoes while you wait for the chicken," the Innkeeper said, he nods his head in thanks and the Innkeeper then leaned towards them before whispering "truth be told, you lot are my riches customers here in months," he says while grinding before leaving them alone.

Cirilla picks up a few potatoes before eating them, she glances at him and raised her eyebrows before speaking.

"You're not going to eat?" she asks him.

"I'll eat later," he replies, he looks at her face and notices a look of concern adoring her face.

"What if… there is no later?"

"I'll manage," he replies ending their conversation, he then glances at Gretka who was about to pour the water into her mug, he suddenly grabs her hand stopping her from pouring the liquid.

"Wait," he said, before pulling a small tablet into his pouch and placing it inside the water jug, he watches as the tablet dissolves, before glancing at his companions and noticing their look of confusion at what he is doing.

"What did you do?" Cirilla asks him.

"It's Tetraglycine Hydroperiodide, along with immune boosters," he replies, his two companions continue to give him looks of confusion and he sighs before explaining further.

"It's some sort of herbal medicine from where I come from," he said "It helps clean the water and at the same time strengthens your body." he finishes, he saw the looks of understanding from the girls before pouring the water on their mug.

A comfortable silence graces their table while they wait for the food, he watches as the patrons inside the tavern are idle making chit-chat with one another, some folks from the other end are drinking heavily, and some are playing cards and gambling their stuff as they placed it on the table.

'Even in this poor state they still gamble their belongings' he thought with clear amusement, shaking his head to concentrate, it was then he notice the sword that was beside Cirilla he decides to comment on it.

"That's a beautiful sword you have there," he said before adding "Good idea too, using the skin of a pufferfish as a grip, it prevents slipping even when your hands are sweaty." he finishes while glancing at Cirilla who seems surprised at his knowledge.

"How did you know that it's pufferfish?" she asks.

"I eat pufferfish," he replies, noticing the look of confusion on her face, 'probably because it's poisonous,' he assumes.

"It's a delicacy from where I come from, they found a way to remove the poison," he clarifies, he glances at the Innkeeper who was once again approaching their table this time with the three chickens he ordered.

"Here you are, enjoy your meal," the Innkeeper said before walking away and going back to his stall.

Once the food touches the table and he saw his companions eating, he got up from his seat grabs his sword, and was about to head from the exit when Cirilla interrupted him.

"Where are you going?" she asks before continuing "What about your food?"

"I'm going to look for a suitable camping spot," he replies "As for the food, I'll eat it when I got back," he finishes before leaving immediately, not letting her speak any further.

The moment he exits the tavern, he gazes at the village and notices that they are no more people actively walking around, the doors are closed and the candles that are illuminating the houses has been blown off, the only light sources that are available are the torches creating an eerie atmosphere in the village.

He adds chakra to his legs and feet before sprinting into the forest hopping from branch to branch looking for a suitable camping spot for him and his companions, he stops suddenly when he came to across an open field with a wonderful view of the landscape.

The shining light of the moon gives its surrounding area an ethereal look to it, the tall grass gently swaying as the wind sweeps it from side to side, contrasting this was the ruined fort just across the field giving it a refined but alluring look, and finally, the streams of water that were running across the lake shimmer as it reflects the moonlight, giving this already beautiful area an otherworldly feel to it.

'I never really noticed it before,' he thought, the moon appears to be closer in this world compared to his dimension. He smiles as he appreciates the beauty of this world, even a war-thorn world can still surprise him it seems. He notices that he was in this field longer than he anticipated.

'They could wait for a few more minutes,' he thought still standing on the field, he was already starting to like this place.

Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon/Ciri

She leans back on her chair as she watches Sasuke leave the tavern, 'Well at the very least we are actually having a normal conversation,' she thought, still it was frustrating that the only thing she learned was that his world has an advanced form of medicine that can condense what is essentially a Medicinal Potion into a small bite-size piece and that pufferfish can be eaten if you know how to remove its poison.

She sighs before glancing at the little girl Gretka, as she was devouring her chicken like it was the last meal of her life, smiling at this she grabs her own chicken before taking a bite, savoring the flavors of pepper and basil along with it. She continues to eat when Gretka suddenly stops eating and asks her a question.

"So, did you two sleep together?" Gretka asks her innocent smile never leaving her face.

Her eyes widen at the sudden question at the same time she begins to choke on the piece of chicken that she was eating, thinking quickly she begins to pour the water into the mug before drinking it while banging her chest with her left hand.

"Wha-what makes you say that?" she asks coughing slightly.

"Well, there was only one bed in the hut and you're not wearing trousers," Gretka said while tapping on her head "So I thought that maybe you guys are sleeping together?"

"Wha-No, gods no!" she exclaims although a slight blush can be seen on her face "We are not sleeping together," she said while giving emphasis to the 'not'.

"Oh…" Gretka said pouting slightly, before gaining an interesting glint in her eyes she asks her again "So, how did you two meet then?"

"Well, he saved me," she replies "I was heavily injured you see, I was running away from someone and barely escape, that's when he found me and nursed me back to health," she finishes her story while eating the last piece of her chicken, she watches as Gretka nods her head and gives her a smile before returning to her chicken.

Ciri looks at the people inside the tavern, some are already going back to their homes, while others are too drunk they can barely stand and falls asleep on the floorboards, she begins to wonder how long till Sasuke returns so they can finally set up camp and sleep.

Her thoughts were interrupted however when a group of five heavily armed men enters the tavern, she watches as the people tense, and the Innkeeper began raising his hands up as a form of surrender.

'Bandits?' she thought while gesturing towards Gretka to hide behind her in case of a fight broke loose, she silently gazed at the bandits while looking for any facial features she can identify, one of the bandits wearing a black cloth covering the lower part of his face he also seems to have a scar covering his left eye, judging by his armor which was steel plated and new she could assume that he is the leader, the other one wearing a green cloth also covering the lower part of his face has a black eye patch covering his right eye, the remaining three, on the other hand, she can't identify because of their hoods which were blocking their face, all of them are wearing armor the supposed leader was the only one wearing pristine-looking armor.

"Aight, you Innkeep!" the 'leader' yells at the Innkeeper "You're late for payment you know that right?" the man asks while slowly approaching the stall.

"Wa-wait, please! I promise I'll pay you next week! I swear!" the Innkeeper exclaims however the man punches the Innkeeper in the face.

"I already gave you a chance! You know what this means right! Boys destroy this place!" the man commanded, the four remaining bandits then strat lifting the tables and slammed them onto the wooden floor, she glances at the rest of the people in the tavern and notices how scared they are some are already cowering at the corner trying to make themselves smaller as to not risk the bandits' ire.

The eye-patch-wearing bandit is slowly walking up to her table she could feel Gretka tense from behind her, steeling her resolve she decides to confront the bandits before they end up destroying the whole tavern.

"That's enough!" she exclaimed while grabbing her sword and pointing it to the eye-patched bandit.

"Well boys look what we have here," the bandit 'leader' exclaimed "By your voice, I would assume you to be a woman," he said, "Why don't you remove the hood, me and the boys here could use some entertainment" he finishes while moving his fingers.

"The only entertainment you'll be having is a broken face," she replies, before narrowing her eyes at the man.

"Oh, a feisty one here," the 'leader' replies, it was then she realized that she was surrounded, all the talking the man did was just a distraction for his other members to enclose her.

'This is bad!' she thought to herself 'While I could take them on, the problem is Gretka will be exposed!' she grits her teeth in frustration at her predicament.

"Hey! There's a little kid behind her!" her eyes narrowed dangerously at the man behind her "Come here, kid! We won't hurt your momma much-"

The door suddenly bursts open and a man was thrown inside he was wearing what appears to be a heavy plate armor that had a fist embedded in it, the tavern was suddenly enveloped by a feeling of dread, she could feel the sensation as it grips her heart tightly and she begins to shake as if the world itself is moving, she glances at the bandits and found that they too are affected by this phenomenon.

'What is happening out there?!' she thought while glancing outside from where the man was thrown.

Sasuke Uchiha

He was already done looking for a place to set up camp, he found some bushes with thorns in them, using his sword he cuts the middle section of the bushes, creating a pocket that could fit at least four people inside, once he was done he decides to return back to the village.

'I should return right now,' he thought 'they should be finished eating by now, I'll just have to take my meal to go and eat it here.' he adds chakra to his legs and began sprinting towards the village.

Once he made it there he was surprised when he found a group of horses at the village entrance and what appears to be ten armed men roaming inside the village, he took note of their weapons and armor, some have wooden shields and iron swords while others are wearing heavy plate armor with maces and bows for weapons, his eyes narrowed dangerously as he begins to assess the situation.

'These people are no ordinary bandits' he thought 'they look pretty well off to be just random scavengers, former soldiers perhaps? Or perhaps corrupt soldiers taking advantage of the people living here?' he thought while getting closer into the village.

As he was getting closer, he saw the bandits already harassing the locals, he could see that they are going after the women first tying their hands and forcing them out of their homes, while the other bandits are ransacking each and every house taking anything that is of value, he was stopped however when one of the bandits calls him out.

"Halt! Tis' village is under our control entering-!"

"I suggest you let me into the tavern first, my companions are waiting for me there." he cuts the man off mid-sentence, showing no fear as he held his gaze to the bandit.

Silence reigns as the ten men began looking at one another before bursting into a fit of laughter.

"G-get a load of this jester! HAHAHA"

"No, wait, Zorg, mayhaps he knew a few tricks!"

"Oi! Can you toss balls, all loopedy-like? O-or spit fire from your arse!"

"Mayhaps he can show us-"

He unleashes his Killing Intent paralyzing the bandits completely, as he began walking closer into the middle of the village so too does the pressure he is manifesting, he watches as some of the bandits are already on the ground holding their breath. However, he notices that the bandits are not the only ones being affected, the villagers as well, some already on the verge of passing out from the pressure alone, so he lowers it down just enough so he can talk to the bandits.

"Where is the leader of your group?" he asks the bandit whose knees are still shaking, from the onslaught of his power.

"H-he we-went i-inside the ta-ta-tavern" the man replies unable to control his stuttering, he was about to walk to the tavern when he notice in his peripheral vision, a single bandit that was trying to sneak behind him with a mace in his hand.

He suddenly turns around and grabs the man's neck, holding it tightly the man drops his weapon and opts to try and use his hands to break free from the grip, he aligns the man into the entrance of the tavern before punching him, breaking the door and sending the bandit inside the tavern.

Walking inside the tavern he notices that Cirilla is surrounded and that Gretka was currently hiding behind her, he narrows his eyes as he let out a small amount of Killing Intent towards the bandits, just as he suspects they began to panic as the fear settles in.

Out of desperation the man behind Cirilla suddenly grabs Gretka and began using her as a hostage.

"D-don't move o-or I'm going to kill-!"

The man didn't get to finish as he moves faster than anyone anticipate, he dashes forward in front of the man grabbing his neck and forcing the man to drop his weapon and Gretka, before slamming him on the wall, tightening his grip as he watches as the man began to choke.

'It's over,' he thought as the man's face is starting to turn blue and the man's face is starting to bulge, he stops when Cirillas' voice suddenly registers in his mind

"-Stop! Let him go!" Cirilla yells at him, he was brought back to reality as he loosens his grip and the man begins to breathe a little easy, but he was still keeping him suspended in the air.

"Now, why should I do that?" he asks his voice cold and hardened.

"Look!" she exclaimed "Look around you!"

He did look around and noticed that the people in the tavern are looking at him in fear, some are even shaking uncontrollably, he glances at the four remaining bandits, well one, as the three ran outside of the tavern when he was busy and the only one remaining was the man wearing a black cloth around his face with a visible scar on his eye, judging by his wet trousers and the liquid surrounding the floorboards it seems the man piss on himself.

He sighs as he lets go of the man, who began gasping for air while holding his throat. He waits for the man to get up before looking directly into his eyes

"Leave this place and never come back understand," the steel in his voice forces the man to pay attention.

"Y-yes Ser!" the man fearfully replies.

"Here, let me give you a reminder so you won't forget your promise to me," he suddenly grabs a kunai in his pouch before slashing it upward.

"AHHH!" the man yells in pain as he is holding his now severed right ear.

"Remember this day, should you return to this village or any village for that matter," he said while gazing at the black bandana-wearing bandit and the man with the severed ear, "I will finish what I started here, Understand!"

"Ye-yes Ser!" the bandana-wearing bandit exclaimed, while the other still continues to scream.

"Now get out of my sight," he stated with a cold and frigid voice.

The two men didn't have to be told twice as they begin to run out of the tavern, he sighs before taking a deep breath trying to calm himself, he glances at Cirilla who seems to be smiling nervously at him and he then glances at Gretka who looks happy even after all that has transpired. Just as he along with Cirilla and Gretka were about to leave the Innkeeper suddenly calls them out.

"Wait!" the Innkeeper yells at them while holding his bleeding nose.

"I have some spare rooms here, you can stay here for the night as a sign of thanks for what you did to me," the Innkeeper explains

"You seem grateful, but what about the rest," he asks while glancing behind the man, he looks at the people still inside the tavern giving him looks of fear, nervousness… and was that gratitude?

"Trust me on this," the Innkeeper said "If you killed them all then a new one will just take their place, If you let them go without any punishment then they will return and cause more damage" the man continues while giving him a wide smile showing a few of his missing teeth "You, however, you put the fear of gods in those fuckers, they will not only stop terrorizing this village but other villages as well!" the man exclaimed

"So please, stay here just for the night as a sign of thanks for your work good Ser," he glances at Cirilla who in turn glances back at him, he nods his head before asking the Innkeeper for their rooms.

It was almost past midnight when they are done settling in, he watches as Cirilla and Gretka are almost done cleaning their room, he glances at his room it has a single bed that would only fit him because of his size, a table, and a simple bolt lock made from iron and wood for locking the door. He opens up his satchel and picks up a paper and a brush, he begins to draw a bunch of seal arrays before biting his thumb and slashing it across the paper, once he is finished he heads straight for Cirilla and Gretkas' room and knocks on the door, he waits for Cirilla to open the door and hands her the sealing array.

"Here, this is a… sealing array that temporarily locks your door, it also alerts me when someone forces their way into your door," he said "Just stick it on your doorframe from the inside, when you want to get out of the room just remove it." he finishes

"I have never seen anything like this before," she replies "Did you create this just now?" she asks with widened eyes he could feel her amazement.

"Yes, I created that," he confirms before adding "However I myself didn't invent that seal array a friend of mine did," he finishes, while he is no slouch when it comes to Fuinjutsu, he is by no means a master of it, that title would go to his blond friend Naruto who took sealing like a fish swimming through water, that man was capable of utilizing seals through wind chakra alone no ink and paper needed.

With that done he bids them goodnight and proceeds to return to his room, he adds the second Fuinjutsu seal at his door before closing it and heading straight to his bed, he began pondering on what will happen tomorrow, before ultimately succumbing to sleep.

The Next Day

Sasuke Uchiha

He awoke before the crack of dawn, being trained at a young age in the shinobi arts he was used to sleeping late at night while at the same time waking up early, he got up from his bed and began doing some light stretches, he stops when he hears an audible pop from his arms and back, after that he sits on his bed crosses his legs, closes his eyes and starts his meditation.

While he does not have the passive sensory ability like Karin Uzumaki and Naruto, what he does have however was the tenacity and drive to find an alternative way to do it, he discovers this technique by watching Naruto enter Sage Mode, however, instead of absorbing chakra from the outside, his technique focuses on releasing small amounts of chakra instead allowing him to 'sense' and 'feel' his surroundings.

He began doing just that, releasing small amounts of chakra around him, and using that said chakra he began to 'feel' his surroundings, he could 'feel' Cirilla and Gretka sleeping next to his room at the same time he could also 'feel' the Innkeeper starting to wake up, spreading his chakra some more so he could 'feel' the entire village, the children seem to be still as sleep, while some of the adults are also starting to wake up from their slumber.

While this technique is useful in terms of scouting, he rarely uses it because of its drawbacks, anyone from his home world with the ability to sense chakra could feel his chakra from a mile away. Here, however, in a place where no one has chakra systems he can use it freely with no repercussions, he slowly opens his eyes, letting the excess chakra dissipate, taking a deep breath before exhaling it, he then got up and begins to get dressed.

After he was done getting dressed and putting on his cloak and hood, he started packing his things for what might be their final trip before reaching Crow's Perch, he decides to make a mental checklist for any essentials they might need like food, supplies, and any information on the Baron.

'Once the Innkeeper is awake I'll ask him to make more food for our trip' he thought 'After that, I'll have to ask him for information with regards to the Baron of Crow's Perch, frankly speaking, going inside a place with very little information is idiotic' he mused. To be fair, should the need arises he could escape or if push comes to shove he could also level the place down.

His musing was interrupted when he hears a knock on his door, sensing that it was probably Cirilla, he went to his door and remove the seal he created before opening the door and he was greeted by Cirilla already wearing her clothes with the hood on and Gretka who was still yawing, not used to waking up this early.

"Sorry for knocking all of a sudden…" she said "I was wondering if we are going to leave now? or do you still need to settle some things?"

"You can wait outside, I was just going to ask the Innkeeper some questions" he replies "After that we can leave this village."

Cirilla nods her head before heading towards the door of the tavern.

He heads straight to the kitchen in order to talk to the Innkeeper, he watches as the man begins to prepare some food before making his presence known.

"Excuse me," he said, gaining the attention of the Innkeeper.

"Ah! Ser Knight!' the Innkeeper said, he decides to remain silent and not correct the man on his title as a 'Knight', "I can see you're all ready to leave, I cooked you and your companions some food to break your fast," the Innkeeper finishes.

"Thank you, just wrapped it in a paper, we will just eat it on the way," he replies before adding "I was wondering what information do you have on the Baron of Crow's Perch?"

He watches as the Innkeeper has a mirage of emotions from fear, to nervousness, and distress.

"Is that where your headed Ser?"

He stays silent and narrowed his eyes before nodding his head and letting the Innkeeper continue talking.

"I don't know much miself, but I have heard rumors about the man, he was called the Bloody Baron you see," the Innkeeper said "According to the folks he sieges the Fort in the West, after winning the battle they saw the rivers change colors from blue to red like blood, some say he executed his remaining enemies and throws them into the river," he watches as the man shudders before continuing "After that he attacks Crow's Perch the former Baron got scared and ran away since then the Bloody Baron has been manning the Perch." the Innkeeper finishes before giving him their packed meal.

"Just… stay safe on your journey Ser, few have kind souls like yours."

He had to hold back a snort, him kind, the number of people he has murdered before changing his ways beg to differ, so he merely nods his head in acknowledgment, before heading straight out of the tavern.

As he was about to leave, he began hearing noises outside of the tavern, he decides to see what is happening so he opens the door, revealing the villagers or those who are awake at the moment giving Cirilla some fruits and vegetables, probably from their harvest.

"There he is! Ser Knight we would like to thank ye!"

"Ser! Thank you for defending our village!"

"I have brought you and your companions some food good Ser!"

He watches as the villagers began thanking him for standing up to the bandits, he notices that Cirilla was smirking under her hood, and Gretka who was openly grinning at him, he wasn't sure how he was going to react to the situation, he was not really treated as a hero in Konoha, to be fair though, he was always out of the village most of the time, 'That's probably the reason' he thought

Sensing that the people are staring at him, he nods his head as a form of appreciation for the gesture, before marching to the village entrance, giving one last glance to the villagers as they wave their hand's goodbye, he and his companions began going westward to Crow's Perch.

Unbeknownst to him the legend of the tall, dark, and mysterious Knight will grace the annals of Velen as some sort of Hero who will defend villages from evil like bandits and corrupt soldiers before punishing them most severely.
