534 A Brave Warrior Should Pillage

Old John was a village chief at the border of the Empire. His life was as common and uneventful as his name. Even the chief post was inherited from his father.

According to his age, he should be living an uneventful life. A young man scrambled back to the village and informed the villagers that there was a group of strange Humans and monsters outside the village.

The Humans looked as though they were captured by the monsters. The kind Old John wouldn't allow his kind to be captured by monsters. Who knew if the Humans were from his village or nearby villages?

Old John gathered all the young lads in the village and armed them with farming tools and fire torches. Most of the wild beasts and monsters were afraid of fire. That was Old John's experience.

During normal times, Old John would teach the young lads how to swing their weapons and defend themselves with fire torches. His efforts were now paying off.
