8 CHP 8: A LONELY Battle

"Hyun, let me go. You are 10 years younger that don't. Don't you know to treat your elder? Where your manners?" asked June pulling his sword.

" You need to get through? Beat us first. Let us see the swordsmanship that you have trained for 19 years. I also have learned swordsmanship for 9 years. I think I have better workmanship than you since the chief of defence son teaches you but the chief, himself, teach me swordsmanship," answered Hyun.

Being 25 years old, June did not know about his stamina. He did know whether he can beat the 10 assassins. He knew he will be weak once he beat the 7 of them. All of then look so strongly build. Their muscle is so firm and their hand holding the sword look so skillfully. Gripping the sword tightly in his hands, he started his lonely battle. He slashes the first one on his neck. A clean deep cut was made. Blood started to spurt out from his neck when June cut it. Another man on his left started to attack. June reacts fast. Their sword hit together. A big clink was heard. June push the man towards the tree behind him and kick him hard on the stomach. He falls hard and a big thud was heard. He moans in pain while holding his stomach. The third man attaches from his back. He slashes June back. June fall to his knees and drop his sword but that does not stop him. He slips his hand to his pocket. With the object in his hands, he slashes the third man thigh. The third man holds his wound. June stand up and stab his heart. Blood spurted out and June's face was covered with droplets of blood. The other few men just looked at one another. Signalling whether to attack or not. The just took the chance to run away from death.

" 3 out of 10 knocks out. 7 of the runway. Such a coward. Why did you even hire them at the first place?" asked June while wiping off the blood from his face with his sleeve.
