Mayeux defeated the soldiers of Nurshira and with the victory they return to their position

But instead of declaring it, Mayeux did not say anything or declare anything about the defeat of the soldiers of Nurshira.

Instead, he simply kills all of them but he did not say anything or declare anything. 

Mayeux understood the power of psychological warfare. 

By not revealing their intentions or motivations, he and Aeryon had sown the seeds of paranoia within Nurshira. 

The defenders would be haunted by the unanswered questions. 

Mayeux's strategy was to keep the people of Nurshira on edge, to make them feel vulnerable and exposed. The fear of the unknown would weaken their resolve, making them more susceptible to further psychological manipulation.

Aeryon, receiving the report from Mayeux, nodded in approval. This was the kind of warfare that went beyond physical strength—it targeted the very essence of the human psyche.
