Terrible Soldiers

Shi Tian glanced at Theobold, carefully deciphering his words while maintaining a calm facade. 

"An exciting adventure indeed, Commander Theobold. Unfortunately, our 'adventure' was just as thrilling as yours." His voice was serene, masking the gravity behind his words.

Theobold's expression shifted, though he tried to maintain his affable smile. "Ah, I see. Battle is thrilling in its own way, isn't it?" 

Shi Tian nodded his head, agreeing with Theobold. "A battle always makes a person energized, filled with emotion. Sometimes, they could even unleash powers that they never thought they were able to conjure." 

On the surface, it seemed as if the two were having a casual conversation, but those with a keen perspective would be able to discern that it was anything but casual.

Each one of them was like a venomous viper, with each word they spoke aloud being a toxin.
