Raya struck with all her strength with two powerful blows from the right and left, each time her yellow-hilt sword hit the enemy's katana, they cause a loud crash, a blow and the emergence of three sparks, but the first two and the next third blow did not make Lao Bin even twitch. minimeter, the more powerful the blow, the Lao Bin resisted with all the force Raya put into her blows.
Raya swung again several times, hitting from one angle, hitting and withdrawing the sword to strike again with all her might, and her sword hit the katana blocking her blows again each time Lao Bin excited the katana and lowered it, blocking the blows in front of his chest and belt, and again the strongest blows of his opponent, who had indescribable fury in her eyes, were even reflected in such a way that with the last blow, Lao Bin made a quick spin and with his own [precise blow he pushed his opponent to the side.
Raya, not discouraged by the first failure, started to attack again, constantly and tirelessly hitting the wild frenzy, releasing even a strong scream, each time her straight blows from above and on the right again reflected only from the samurai's blade, and he himself stepped back, blocking the rushing sword blade in front of his head and left side, Lao Bin, making a backward leap, stepped back a few steps and Raya, furious fighting in a wild frenzy, stumbled over her legs.
Raya fell to the ground facing the grass, feeling and knowing that the enemy had gained some advantage over her and was about to end the duel, Raya rolled to the side trying to quickly get up but for a moment she was stopped by the sight of her opponent, Lao Bin stood in place holding his katana with both hands and are constantly waiting for their opponent.
- Well, why are you standing there, playing with me like Pelona. She asked Raya furiously, standing up like a wild animal and proceeding to the next series of quick blows, attacking both with her right hand holding the sword and tossing the blade to her left hand, spinning the spinning speed.
A large series of blows carried by furious emotions rushed in the air and Lao Bin with a certain amount of regret dodged every second blow, moving his right foot, head and left side back, twisting his heels quickly, which of course surprised his opponent and at the same time gave the samurai a place and a chance for a quick counterattack and that's exactly what Lao Bin did.
The samurai, with regret in his eyes, swung several times, hitting his opponent's sword first, the katana blade shone on both sides and seeing the flash, Raya could only block the enemy attack twice, but the third flash was too close, to avoid being hit, Raya stepped back and turned on the ground and the blade, as it turned out, cut only the air, rushing a few centimeters above her head, it was so close and yet a long way, furious Raya seeing the opponent standing in front of her, waiting for her, playing with her, she became angry again, attacked again, bursting in Lao Bin with a barrage of stronger and slower blows, her anger grew stronger with each blocked and vanished blow.
Raya spun the blade and her hand attacked from the bottom up and her blade struck again several times, causing sparks, both opponents avoided each other several times changing the fighting position and style of strikes, Lao Bin swung several times in quick blows ended with a sudden thrust and his dream blade was close to the head and the throat of his opponent, seeing the katana blade so close again, seeing the flash of Raya's blade leaned left and right, and each time she saw something in the first encounter that avoided her eyes.
Raya struck for the third time and knocked off her feet again looked at the opponent standing above her, contradictory thoughts began to swirl in her head, she felt the enemy deliberately fighting her in such a way as to throw her off balance, she understood it better and better, but his expression his face showed no sign of this type of practice, and it was strange.
- I see you haven't learned anything. Lao Bin said, sounding not provocative but rather like a teacher, but Raya got up again, emotional.
- you are not my teacher traitor. Screamed Raya, hitting the wild disjointed blows.
- do not get led by emotions and take advantage of the loss of balance, surprise your opponent. Lao Bin said as he was thrown off balance.
Lao Bin landed on his knees and spun, making a few turns and with precision striking the blade first to finally wildly thrust the katana as it rose from the ground and his blade sped towards its destination, seeing Raya's rushing blade again she retreated in front of the katana blade, landing on her back and doing a quick roll back, standing on equal feet.
- that's what it is all about, surprise me if you can, go ahead. Lao Bin said, still sounding like a quiet teacher or a man at peace with his fate.
Raya stepped back looking at her opponent, this time she fought herself for a few seconds in contradictory thoughts, until suddenly her eyes trembled, knowing how many mistakes she had made, let herself be trapped, let herself be provoked, let herself be led by her nose and now she was doing what her opponent wanted, despite the fact that she hated Lao Bin, her grip on the sword softened and she began to walk towards her opponent with a step full of elasticity and grace.
Raya twisted the blade of her sword pushing her entire body into the fight, twirling twice, which effectively added strength and speed to the rushing blade, and the strike of the sword against the katana and Lao Bin ready to fight for the first time pushed the surprised samurai back twice for the first time, but it was not meant to be surprisingly, Raya jumped up straight at her opponent swinging her left hand and sword several times, striking four times which caused her opponent to stumble slightly.
Lao Bin, using his ability to control his balance, spun several times on his heels, swinging a katana like a hurricane, but neither of the blows nor he was beating himself ready for what followed, Raya, landing on the ground, rolled on the ground and Strike with all her strength stabbing a Lao Bin and piercing his armor in the area of the right side, Lao Bin felt the cold blade between the armor and the torn shirt, and when he stepped back he looked with a great impression at the rising opponent, what had happened caused him a wide smile of satisfaction.
- and here it is. Show what you can do, let's help each other. Said Lao Bin as he flipped and punched with all his might.
Come on, the next blows of the samurai were surprising, his blows were not the most strange here, and the words that Lao Bin spoke, Raya, unable to understand the strange words of the samurai for a moment, twisted the blade to the right and left, bouncing his words faster and faster, now it was not hatred that pushed her and her curiosity, her blows were already calmer and even empty, devoid of emotions.
When Lao Bin charged, hitting him with all his might, Raya also noticed that Lao Bin never aimed directly unless he was sure that Raya would be able to dodge his blow and her thoughts began to fight against each other, whether Lao was doing this to provoke her further or was Another reason unknown to her, Raya, twisting a quick reverse spin on her heels, stepped back, avoiding the blows of the opponent and, stopping in the middle of the clearing, tilted the blade, this time it was Raya waiting for the attack, this time she was to counter and check her rival.
- I can see that you are making progress. Lao Bin said, constantly holding the katana with two hands to attack with his right or left hand at any moment.
- and you still don't want to finish this. Said Raya, grabbing the sword with both hands and tilting the blade, ready to prepare the trap.
- it's not about me. Lao Bin said charging with another wave of blows.
Katana glowed again, the blade glided three times with one straight turn hitting the blocked sword, throwing the Samurai opponent back, Raya, using her knowledge and own experience, landed first on her back and, doing a flip back, turned her whole body twice, first throwing the samurai blade and his right arm to the side, with the second blow with her own hand she hit Lao Bin in the leg and he suddenly with a snarl fell to his knees, in the third turn on her knees Raya pulled her sword with all her strength, having an almost exposed opponent until her eyes saw a samurai katana and his chance for a quick thrust, when she spun back, Raya waited for a thrust but none of them ever came, and when she looked back into her opponent's green eyes, she saw the same regret again, yet the blade of the sword continued on until it struck.
Lao Bin looked with wide eyes at his opponent and her heavy breathing and the blade of the sword stopped with a mini-meter in front of his throat, and Lao Bin started to pant for a moment and finally throw his katana aside, waiting for the final blow.
- bravo, you did much more than I thought, you combined many fighting styles, what I sewed you and what you know yourself, now finish with me, kill the traitor!. Lao Bin shouted.
- you really want death. Said Raya, staring steadily in the eyes of her opponent.
For a few seconds Raya and Lao Bin were silent, exchanging only questioning glances, everything was interrupted suddenly by Tong who burst in with an ax in his hand, accompanied by growling Tuk Tuk and Krun Win, and finally a gasping doctor in a black robe, Nitor Hazin, Tong and Tuk Tuk, seeing them kneeling in front of him. two opponents apart, the blade at the traitor's throat bent his ax and shouted to his friend.
- well Raya, what are you waiting for, kill the traitor!. Tong shouted, and with his insistence they also snarled Tuk Tuk and the once faithful companion of Krun Win.
- You hear the advice of a friend, go ahead, finish me, do it now, please. Lao Bin said.
- why do you want death. She asked Raya, now unable to do anything but withdraw the blade from the throat of the shocked samurai.
- why are you doing this, please stop me.
- Lao, did you want this help, you want me to kill you, but I won't!. Raya shouted, standing up in front of a shocked Lao Bin who could not understand his opponent's decision, neither he nor Tong grabbing the ax.
- if you don't, I'll do it for you.
- Tong, please, enough, stop and your ax, that's not how it should end, not like that. Raya said, stopping the great warrior and his anger.
- why. Tong asked.
- you know why, he wants to die, is forced to serve the Empress until death. Nitor Hazin said looking at his erstwhile companion, also sincerely hoping that Lao Bin might someday be their friend again.
At the same time, Raya looked back at the self-playing, Lao Bin raised his katana in such a way as if he wanted to challenge anyone again, but instead of accepting the challenge, Raya sheathed the sword, knowing what Lao Bin really wanted from her.
- only death exempts from service, right?. She asked Raya and her question was answered in a silent gesture, Lao Bin nodded his head, looking pleadingly at the three people.
- only this can save me from the disgrace and harm to my friends, I don't want it, that's why I sent my soldiers further south, they are far away, but not for long. Lao Bin said, still holding the katana in his hands.
- I will not kill you, if you want blood, fight, hit, but I will not defend myself. Raya said as she walked over to the surprised Lao Bin, and he himself twitched just like Tong, Tuk Tuk, Krun Win and Nitor Hazin when Lao's blade landed on the gray vest next to the opponent's throat.
- why are you doing this to me. Lao Bin said seeing his blade close to her opponent allowing her opponent to finish her.
- I understand now, you are not evil here like most of you like you, you are a slave and only death can free you, but not me, I will not do it, nor any of us, Tong put down the ax, you hear. She said to Raya and Tong hid his ax behind his back with his eyes wide open and the expression after which Krun Win and Tuk Tuk softened, making soft sounds like to a friend.
- please don't do this to me, you have a chance to escape. Together, you can get out of the valley and make your way to the granite mound. Said Lao Bin, grabbing the collar of a gray jacket and bringing Raya closer so that their eyes were only a few centimeters apart, as well as the samurai blade in front of his throat, until finally Lao Bin lowered his hand, knowing he would not get any more.
- You know that I can't reveal, I can't. Lao Bon said.
- so help us, let us go, no one will know, please. Raya said, staring constantly into the samurai's eyes full of shock and sorrow.
- I have to help you, this, my honor will be so disgraced before myself, if I help you. Lao Bin said as he sheathed his weapon.
- so be passive, stand aside and tell everyone that you did not make it, you don't have to fight, be passive, stand aside and do nothing, it will not insult you, my honor. Nitor Hazin said, giving his friend the only option.
Lao Bin looked at everyone with his eyes wide open until his own consciousness flooded with contradictory emotions, he ended everything with a grimace on his face, fists pressed tightly and screaming, until there was silence, then Lao Bin looked at everyone confidently, ready for anything.
- follow me. Lao Bin said as he walked towards the two nuts visible in the distance.
- Well, what are you standing there, if you want bim to be passive and he said, and me now. Lao Bin added, glancing back for a moment.
- what are you waiting for, time is running out quickly. Raya said, trusting again in the play and his decisions.
When Raya moved steadily after Lao Bin, Nitor Hazin looked at the millipede and the armadillo, and showing a sincere smile, he followed the lead Lao Bin, Tuk Tuk and Krun Win exchanged a momentary uncertain glance then they also joined, and Tong standing for a moment looked at the real a surreal sight, first there was a traitor fighting with her friend, a traitor dealing the worst blow because a blow from behind, and now everyone trusted this traitor, a traitor who turned out to be more of a Black Empress puppet.
Despite conflicting thoughts and suspicions towards Lao Bin, Tong breathed heavily knowing that he would not change anyone's decision, besides, if a trap occurred, Tong had to be close to fight the traitor and dangerous opponent who were silver legionaries, not people and living machines designed only for combat and destroying.
So Tong ran after the tracks and his friends sewn in stopped at another clearing between chestnuts and another tricycle belonging to Lao Bin and Pelona.
- listen to me, enter our tricycle with you and go east, to the granite cone, I hope that there will be a meeting of your friends, from what I saw your dragon friends, and Boun, Little Noi and Lana Wina escaped, I saw them running on the rocky bridges, and most importantly, Pelona is somewhere close with the ten swordfish, it is certainly to the west. Lao Bin said as he pulled two gray circles of black gas out of the tricycle.
- wait, and where is Namaari. Tong asked.
- from what I saw it slipped on a ledge somewhere to the west, right now or not that is where Pelona went !. Nitor Hazin shouted, trouble in his bones.
- right, you don't have much time, from what I heard, Pelona said that she wanted to get your friend, she said that she would easily lead her into a trap, Pelona is not alone, she has ten silver swordfish nearby, but she will not use them to fight he wants to humiliate her again. Said Lao Bin as he passed the two gas circles given to Raya.
- how to help her, where is she and whether Pelona has a chance again. She asked Raya as she tucked her vertebrae behind her back under the gray caftan.
- unfortunately, yes, Pelona is a cyclone of combat, I doubt that anyone could cope with it, Pelona is constantly practicing combat from an early age, apparently she does not feel in combat but feeds on the emotions of others, she is almost like steel soldiers with the difference that she is made of flesh and blood , you have to save her, Pelona told me I want to drag Namaari to a meadow with a big oak over there. Lao Bin said, pointing to a distant oak tree where a fight was probably going on between the killer and the clan clan warrior.
- I'll take care of it immediately and be careful. Raya said, and Lao Bin bowed his head and quickly turned away, disappearing into the thick bushes to meet his own silver legionnaires sent somewhere to the eastern part of the valley.
Tuk Tuk quickly cleared his throat to his friend, ready to go and Raya got on the back of her faithful companion and rushed to the western part of the valley, approaching the great oak, hearing with each subway the sound of fighting and swords being struck together.
Meanwhile, under the great oak, Namaari, in a maddened impetus, threw herself at her opponent, the assassins in the scale blue armor of the water dragon, two blades whirled with the whole body, Namaari swung several times and Pelona, without even drawing her swords, avoided swift blows, dodging a truly dancing movement, Pelona's feet jumped in the form of one of the dances known from the human world, Pelona's feet jumped and gracefully moved between the quick blows.
Pelona whirled, avoiding the next two blows, doing a roll in the air to finally hit Namaari with a strong kick in the back and send her face down into the mud, Namaari crashed face down into the mud with a great bang and rose to her feet with the greater fury, Namaari looked at her opponent again leaning against a large oak tree, an opponent paying no attention to her, it was as if this whole fight was an insignificant element of her life for her, something she disregarded as much as her opponent.
- you rat, you amoeba !. Namaari shouted, taking out much of her fury.
- you are not worthy of me, you should hide underground, but if you want, I can lead you there, to the ground. Pelona said, smiling again in a mocking manner.
- so what are you waiting for, take out your weapons and fight !. Namaari shouted.
- so far, and without a weapon, I am able to defeat you, but if you want to, you can say and have it. Pelona said, steadily leaning against the oak.
Pelona stepped forward, pulling one of her two katanas, holding a shiny sword in her left hand, Pelona stood sideways to her opponent and did not move a step, even when her opponent attacked by hitting from both sides, Pelona again with dancing grace backtracked in front of the blades of two swords whirling around her and, twisting fast turns, raced around her opponent like an unstoppable cyclone.
Pelona sped from right to left each time making a quick one precise swing, the first of the blows knocked Namaari off balance and the road led from the right threw Namaari off balance, and Pelona, quietly running around her opponent, again showed this mocking smile, her opponent like a furious hurricane She stood up and remembering Lao Bin's advice as he had taught her and Raya used the knee fighting method to fight, in an instant the two blades whirled at a frantic pace.
Pelona, seeing a new maneuver of her opponent, jumped back a few times, doing a few somersaults backwards and being ready for the next series in one jump, twisted her whole body and hit between the two blades, stopping the whole momentum of her opponent, Namaari looked up and Pelona smiled wickedly winking at her, and as she bent her katana, she gripped the roads with her free hand with a crushing grip on Namaari's left hand.
For a moment, both rivals were stuck in the momentary wrestling successively won by Pelona, until Pelona hit her right ankle with a strong kick and pushed with her sword and hand with all her strength, pierced with pain by Namaari until she stepped back, as did the hands thrown around holding the sword, Namaari looked completely at her opponent and Pelona spun her whole body and kicked with all her strength hitting the head, Namaari fell a second time with a bang on the ground, face down into the mud with a big bruise on her forehead and Pelona again mockingly rested about the oak but this time she pulled out the last and second katana ready to end the duel.
- can you not see it, I cannot be defeated, you can try yourself, you are only a man who feels, and I am above man, I am invincible. Pelona said looking with a broad smile at the fiercely standing up opponent.
- you feel, you still think that you are the best, maybe you will prove it in the end, and you do not always rise above everyone else, go ahead! Namaari shouted, provoking her opponent.
This time it was Pelona with an empty smile who launched a series of surprising attacks, this time it was she who jumped high, spinning two katanas, two blades spinning like helicopters, as well as Pelona's changing position, once the right blade was spinning with her hand, up and down bottom up, sometimes to the right and then to the left, surprised by such tactics, Namaari was practically pushed, not knowing where the next blow would come from, from what perspective and direction, Pelona, leading the maneuver of hurricane blades, once crouched, spinning around with increasing speed and then she stood up on straight legs doing a quick flip in the air.
Namaari was completely shocked because she did not expect something like that, but the blades and two swords that Namaari wielded also struck, but each time each attack was practically deflected together with the hand and the whole hand, with the next attack and pushed under the Namaari oak, she almost stayed pushed back and her blades almost fell out of her hand, Namaari before she could know the situation saw only the flash of two blades, the first struck from the right and the second from the left, deflecting the swords aside from the hands of the shocked warrior from the claw tribe.
In a fraction of a second, Pelona struck a strong thrust, plunging two katanas deep into the tree trunk between the head and face of Namaari, crossing her two katanas in front of her, then she pulled both blades towards her and made two cuts in front of Namaari's ears, enlarging the existing ones and creating new ones, Namaari staggered as she felt as the blades deliberately cut her skin lightly, and Pelona, disregarding again, begins to step back to stand with her back to her opponent, which was a sign of another disregard.
- You see, you can try, but you will not defeat me. Pelona said.
- so I'll beat myself. Said Namaari, rejecting her own struggle in the first place, and then their rage hit everyone only at themselves.
- what did you say. Pelona asked, turning back.
- I said with a kick or that empty head of yours, go ahead and try to finish. Namaari said this time choking her own emotions in spite of herself.
Pelona of dreams smiled, whirled again in a circle repeating the maneuver of the hurricane of blades and again in the first blows retreating her rival under the oak, Pelona felt the blood, felt the impending success being so close she thought of nothing else but another humiliation of her rival as her blades whirled with Namaari's hands she jumped straight ahead like a suicide and pushed her swords with all her might, like lightning the swords stabbed between passing katanas, stopping two blades, and Pelona saw the tips of two swords before her eyes, it was one moment when Pelona looked at her opponent with eyes wide open.
Pelona kicked again and pushed again, but this time Namaari kept her distance and on another push with the whole body and all the strength of the killer, she deliberately backed back to turn right and relieve all the pressure, it was another moment when Pelona again could not understand what was happening. this happened until ten swordfish, steel silver soldiers armed with silver shields and long katana, emerged from the dense thickets.
- So you're a cowardly amoeba, what, you're afraid, you're afraid you'll lose. Namaari said with the same mocking smile.
- no, and I won't let it go back. Pelona said to her soldiers, and the metal legionaries, as always, obeyed their commander's orders to the letter, retreating under the thick bushes.
Pelona, fighting on, suddenly jumped up, twisting her whole body, jammed katana and Namaari, the claw princess spun in the air and collapsed with a crash on the ground again, face in the mud, and Pelona landed softly and gracefully on her feet with pride and satisfaction looking at her next triumph.
- now you see, you can't beat me.
- talk to the wall!. She yelled suddenly, falling out of Raya's bushes, throwing two circles under Pelona's foot and the positions of the stationed silver swordfish.
In one second everything was stopped by the dark smoke, pierced only by the scream of the assassin's fury, Raya stopped Tuk Tuk in front of the rising Namaari and extended his hand to her.
- get in quickly while we have a chance to escape.
- no!, this is my fight, I will not leave until I beat her for what she did to me. Namaari said, showing the two wounds in front of her ears.
- Namaari, please do not let her provoke you, it is about the whole world, about all of us, be responsible for yourself and your loved ones!. Raya screamed constantly, hand outstretched.
Namaari looked back at the black smoke and the katana blade emerging from it, then looked at the terrified face of her friend, once a rival two years ago and now a close friend, listening to her reasonable words and advice, so Namaari tossed another aside for a moment. defeat and grabbed Ray's hand.
Raya pulled the rope giving a signal to the armadillo, and Tuk Tuk took off at great speed, taking Ray and Namaari with him away from the furious assassin emerging from the thick smoke.
- cowardly amoeba, come back here and fight, wait, no, no, no!. Pelona screamed when the sound of a tricycle departing from a distance reached her ears.
- be cursed, cowards, cursed!. Pelona screamed with all her might, waving katana in front of her like a cyclone.
Pelona, gritting her teeth tightly, moved with the swordfish towards the clearing with two nuts, there she saw only the empty spot of her tricycle and now there was no trace of the vehicle, which meant that she and Lao Bin had been outsmarted.
- what happened here. Said Lao Bin as he came out of the bushes leading his ten hoplites.
- I am asking what happened. Why nobody was watching it, why!. Pelona shouted.
- you too could have left the guards here, we both failed, and probably the most I let myself be approached, I thought that Raya would take this matter seriously but she treacherously attacked me from the shadows, I almost died. Lao Bin said show a cut in lamellar armor.
- well, I thought Raya would take it seriously too, but nevertheless it is not, let their sludge pour over!. Screamed Pelona believing the words of the samurai.
- but what now, our enemies will certainly gain an advantage, for sure, and without a tricycle, we are not able to pursue them, except for our soldiers. Lao Bin asked.
- I know, think, Full thought. Pelona said, thinking for a good few minutes.
When Pelona was thinking and Lao Bin was looking only at the empty place, hiding his own smile, everything suddenly began to tremble, the strong wind began to disturb everything and a sudden shadow appeared in the sky, Pelona and Lao Bin were staring at a sight they had not yet seen with wide eyes, it was an experimental single-tier ship capable of speeding across the sky, carried by the force of two propellers, armed with ten ballistae on one side.
- what is this. Lao Bin asked.
- it's probably the experimental one. Pelona said, watching as the experimenter lands on the ground, unfolding the steel gangway, watching as Ran Hon appears on the deck, a samurai in silver lamellar armor with a helmet on his head always covering his unknown face.
- why are you standing there, quickly to the ship, the Engineer is waiting for a report. Ran Hon said.
- means he's here. She asked Pelona, feeling a slight chill of apprehension running down her back.
- no, but it's not far away and now it's behind me. Ran Hon said, waving to everyone.
Lao Bin along with Pelona and twenty soldiers boarded an experimental ship that looked like a typical ship, but it was made of steel and had no sails, instead it had what looked like wings built into the upper hull and it was just starting to move when Ran Hon spun the wheel and the propellers picked up speed as Ran Hon pressed his foot against the protruding plate.
- incredible. Lao Bin said, staring at the sight of the fleeing ground, the sight of the valley on the eastern edge, sincerely hoping that the Engineer's new toy would not deter his friends for whom he had risked his honor.

What makes someone honorable to disobey an order, I guess only a true idea, because an idea can change a lot because it's like a virus, but it can't change everything.
