Kenji took keen note of the other two buildings as they passed by them, heading towards the third. âAre these the dormitories?â
âYes, separated by male and female,â Hu Dong said.
âHow many students?â
âEighteen at the moment⦠well I suppose that number will be twenty now.â
Kenji nodded, feigning interest. He considered making conversation with the female officer, but her cold demeanor and dour face warned him against it. She was perhaps middle-aged and by the markings on her uniform, had achieved 13th Dan. He still didnât know what Dan Olja truly was, but if freeing her became a necessity, it would likely not come by force.
They entered the main building that was adorned with sculptures of celestial dragons spiraling around the main pillars supporting the roof. A large hall lay inside, with a rock garden at the center. Kenji immediately went to work trying to spot where his belongings might be. He didnât see Hu Dong holding them any longer, so he must have stowed them somewhere. But the room seemed to be devoted entirely to the mystic arts. Various weapons and scrolls of calligraphy denoting the four major art forms, all hanging upon the walls: Blade, Fist, Spear, and Soul. There were subsets listed as well, but they were moving too quickly for Kenji to take note of them all.
He did, however, pay careful attention to which path they took through the wooden corridors of the building interior. A right towards the back, left at a fork. Kenji spotted what looked like a small library at the opposite end of the corridor and his heart jumped with eagerness to catch a glimpse of perhaps his fatherâs book, but unfortunately they passed right by it.
They ascended a short flight of stairs next and arrived within a large dojo. A loud shout rang out from the back of the hall, accompanied by a bang.
Hu Dong paused, looking alarmed, and quickly doubled his pace. âThis way.â
Heading towards the far end of the dojo, they passed through another corridor and came to a narrow room where two older students of 3rd Dan were standing outside, but looking within. Fear and trepidation marred their young faces. As the shout and bang came again, the two boys jumped.
âWhatâs going on here?â Hu Dong said as he stepped between them.
Kenji rushed forward to see as well. There, within the center of the room was a cage made of black iron bars. Within it was the giant Xjian woman with golden hair, now fully conscious, kneeling with her hands bound behind her back in chains.
Olja!
His heart soared to finally see her awake, but was pained at the same time to see her in such a condition. The cage was obviously built for people of smaller size and forcing her to kneel to fit within seemed an extra dose of humiliation and constraint.
Oljaâs sapphire eyes were furious with contempt and her lips were twisted in a scowl. She released another cry and then slammed her forehead full-force into the bars of the cage.
