Part Six, Chapter Five: According to the Oathkeeper Brigade, it was a day from their nightmares.

Today was the biggest misfortune of Miriam’s life. Yesterday, on Jeanne’s orders, Miriam chose around thirty-five of her best subordinates, handpicked from the Liyolure army, the Felmafia, and Flame. Though it was a mixed team of multiple factions, Miriam had witnessed their strength with her own eyes. Of course, none of them were powerful enough to defeat her. However, she still considered the thirty-five members of this team to be some of their finest.

Moon Blossom might have been powerful, but they didn’t have even ten members. Miriam was of the belief that she and her team would never lose to those mercenaries. She’d left Liyolure early in the morning with the team in question, choosing the route that would get them into Sangest the fastest. The march went well until they passed by a certain town.

There was nothing left there except for the remnants of the life it once held. The piles of corpses filled the air with the odor of death. It went without saying that Miriam couldn’t sense the presence of any survivors.

“This is the Oathkeeper Brigade’s vengeance,” Miriam murmured from horseback.

Their goal was the complete annihilation of Central Felsen. At the very least, that was how Miriam viewed their crusade. The Oathkeeper Brigade had once been stabbed in the back by the people they’d trusted and sworn to protect. The very people that Miriam and the others used to treasure had gone and betrayed them. For as long as she lived, she would never forget that sense of despair, nor would she forget how her hero—Jeanne Autun Lala, her leader—had been humiliated and tortured before the populace’s eyes.

“Central Felsen is corrupt. So, that’s why we—” The moment the quiet words left her mouth, the ground exploded underneath her.

Miriam had no idea what happened as she was sent flying off her horse. The ground exploded five more times, toppling the majority of her soldiers off their mounts as well. Those who managed to stay on their horses were panicked and confused. It was when Miriam saw the horses’ bloodied legs on the ground that she finally realized they were under attack.

She pulled herself up to her feet and yelled, “Get into defensive—!” However, she didn’t finish her sentence before arrows rained down on them from all sides. The attack killed several of her soldiers, but the arrows kept coming. Though there weren’t that many, the second wave came frighteningly fast.

Every single arrow, without fail, pierced through the soldiers’ heads or the chests of those without armor. Elna Heikkila, the Demonslaying Huntress, appeared before Miriam’s mind’s eye. The enemy archers’ aim was so accurate that it reminded her of the Great Hero.

“Go! Go!” A young voice rang out as shadows leaped out from the ruins on either side of Miriam’s team.

The shadows brandished swords and daggers, cutting down her bewildered subordinates. Without stopping, they disappeared behind the ruins on the opposite end they’d started from, concealing their presence once more.
