Beheaded

Randy surprised as he heard the woman shouted his name. He didn't recognize the woman, but the man, he felt familiar to the man. In no time both arrived at where he and Zhen Yi were.

"Randy, please help us. No, please protect Akihiro, help him and bring him to leave from here," The woman pleaded.

Eternal Shogunate's group also stopped 10 meters from them. The group comprised 18 people, three archers, and the rest was using a melee weapon.

The man Eternal Shogunate group chased was full of injuries, there were 5 arrows pierced his body, he remembered the woman called him Akihiro.

The name even more familiar to him, as he thought the identity of these two, a voice full of arrogance sounded on the air as he heard it,

"This is Eternal Shogunate's affair. Don't blame us if we play rough here,"

Randy looked at the Eternal Shogunate's group, where the source voice originated. Looking at this group, Randy found something funny, the way how they line up.

In the first line was standing a person alone like a leader, the second line comprised two people, the third line consisted of three people and so on.

"Is this special formation or what? Or is there a meaning behind the formation?" Randy asked himself in his heart as he looked at the group in the front.

After a while, Randy stopped looking at the group and put his sight on the woman and the man. The man was in the front of the woman, protected her despite the injuries over his body. The man never looked at Randy or asked him to protect them.

Meanwhile, Zhen Yi was curious about the woman rather than the man or the problem between these two and the Eternal Shogunate's group. Randy never told her he had a friend outside beside his two best friends who already died, moreover, this woman was a beauty.

The woman realized Randy didn't recognize them, "It's me Asuka, Asuka Ogasawara, and he is Akihi…" The woman paused as she realized why Randy didn't respond to them despite she shouted the man's name, "He is Kojiro Sasaki, we met here three months ago. You shared with us the Rabbit meat with us here," Asuka immediately corrected.

"Kojiro Sasaki?" Randy mumbled. Then he recalled three months ago he met two people in here, Asuka and Kojiro. He also remembered that day he met the group from Eternal Shogunate too, looking for them.

"Aha, you are Asuka and Kojiro," Exclaimed Randy as he remembered the twos in the front.

"Yes, please help us. No, you only need to bring Kojiro out here, please bring him to a safe place," Asuka held Randy's hand as she pleaded with him.

"NO! I will not let them take you from me," Kojiro insisted as he raised his sword to the Eternal Shogunate's group.

"But… but you will die if this continues," Tears began flowing from Asuka's eyes.

Randy somehow found a clue by their conversation just now. The Eternal Shogunate's group wanted to take Asuka with them, but he didn't know why the group wanted to take her.

"All right, calm down guys," Randy took out a healing potion from his Storage System and gave it to Kojiro. He looked the injuries was serious, so he gave the healing potion to Kojiro less he died because of loss blood.

Kojiro didn't take the potion from Randy, "Better you don't involve yourself in this affair as there will be a huge problem ahead you if you help us,"

Randy looked at the solemn expression on Kojiro's face before he looked at the Eternal Shogunate's group.

"Yeah, more likely there will be a huge trouble ahead if I help these two but…" Randy pondered if he must help them or not.

After a while, he looked at his wife, who kept staring at Asuka. He pulled her closer to him and whispered, "Should I help them?"

"Help," Zhen Yi only answered with one word as she didn't even turn her head to him and her answer also surprised him. In an instant, his wife decided to help the twos even though this was the first time she met them.

"Don't ask, lets we solve the problem first," Zhen Yi said as she took out Ice Fury and wore her armor, prepared to fight.

Meanwhile, the Eternal Shogunate's group felt indignant and humiliated as Randy ignored them, particularly for the two people in the second line. They were the members of Eternal Shogunate one of the strongest guild in the East City, but Randy ignored them.

"Young lad, better you fuck off from here. Don't stick your nose to Eternal Shogunate's affair or you will be doomed," Shouted one man on the left of the second line.

"Nah, why should we care, lets we complete the task. If he hindering us to complete our task, then we only need to finish them off," Said the man on the right of the second line.

"Nah, better we kill the man and take the woman with us. Look! It's a beauty, a rare beauty," Suddenly there was voice sounded from the back formation, accompanied with a whistle. No one knew who spoke those words.

"Shut up!!" Shouted the man stood alone in the front of formation aka the leader of the Eternal Shogunate's group.

The groups shocked hearing the angry shout from their leader as they didn't understand why their leader suddenly got angry.

Whoosh!!!

But the group's shock didn't stop there. After their leader's shout, the group saw a shadow rushed to the middle of the formation. The speed of shadow was too fast and the group could not even react as they saw the shadow slashed to one of them.

Splash!!

A head flew off as the shadow beheaded one man of the group. Blood spurted out in all direction from the beheaded man's neck. One clean slash and one man died in an instant.

All people stared in shock at the shadow. The shadow was a young lad, the young lad who was in the front of them just now. But, in a few seconds, no in three seconds the young lad moved to the middle of the formation and killed one of them. He killed the man who spoke earlier to take the woman back with them.

"You… you…"

Randy glared at the two men in the second line of formation as they wanted to say something as they pointed the finger to Randy.

But after Randy glared at them, they stopped. The expressionless face which glared them made the twos scared and swallowed back what they wanted to say.

Randy stood in the middle of the formation with an expressionless face. In his right hand was Darkness covered by fresh blood, the fresh blood from the beheaded man.

Even though Randy's action intimidated the seventeen men left of the group, but soon they realized Randy was alone in the middle of their formation. One against seventeen, their fear of Randy gone and five men initiated to attack Randy at once.

Meanwhile, the leader also shocked by Randy's speed. He recognized Randy, the champion of Ascension Tournament. At first, he wanted to negotiate with Randy to give Asuka and Kojiro to them. He began thinking about what benefit he should give to Randy to let him catch Asuka and Kojiro, completed their task.

But he didn't think his subordinates were ignorant and didn't recognize who Randy was. His subordinates even dared to say to take Randy's woman, Zhen Yi, the root of the conflict between Randy and the Dragon Dynasty.

That was why angry and wanted to reprimand his subordinates and apologized to Randy but… Randy decisively took an action before he could apologize.

"STOP!!!" The leader shouted, yet too late as his subordinates already attacked Randy. Sixteen men rushed toward Randy which in the middle of them.

Randy looked at the group attacked him, but he didn't panic even though attacked from all direction.

He even made a gesture to Zhen Yi to close her ears in the midst of the attack from the Eternal Shogunate's group.

ROAR

The roar sounded in the middle of formation as Randy used Dragon Roar skill.

After ten seconds of the roar, all the people who attacked Randy died except the leader. The leader's vision back after ten seconds and saw all his subordinates died. All his subordinates died in the same fashion, beheaded. Many heads were scattered around on the ground with the dead bodies which shocked the leader.
