“Wait, you two know each other?!”

Salvian looks confused.

“Nah! Nah! We just met when we were rescuing the kids.”

Dan says while waving his hands in a way trying to explain things.

“Eh?! How did you know the kids were in trouble?!”

James asks Dan.

“Oh, that?! That’s because I had just recovered from my paralysis and Carly sent me a message. She said ‘Help needed kids in trouble’ that’s all. At first, I thought she was talking about Shirogane but as soon as I came to the town, Fracia contacted me, he told me the situation. So I saved the kids along with this man.”

Dan says as he points at The Third Commander.

The Third Commander wears a steel mask, he is built rip. One can easily notice how big those muscles are even if his height is the same as Dan. His hair is black and it seems like a normal hair-style that one may find in everyday life.

“By the way, every citizen should clear out right now. There is going to be a huge fight and you guys shouldn’t be in the middle of it.”

The Third Commander speaks. Even his voice is very gruff like a man in his late 50’s.

“But our children-“

Dan interrupts the citizens in a calm voice, “Your kids are fine everyone. You guys can meet up with them in the King’s castle.” Dan says.

The hopes on citizen’s faces appear and they run off towards the King’s castle.

“I want the army to escort the citizens to the King’s Castle.”

Salvian says to the huge army he has bought with him.

“What about you sir?!”

One of Salvian’s men asks him.

“Didn’t you hear The Third Commander? There is going to be a huge fight here, I don’t want to risk losing a whole god damn army to the Church of Fracia. So you guys get out of here.”

Salvian says.

“Understood sir...But please take care of yourself as well.”

The man says.

“Hey now, I ain’t no commander for no reason.”

Salvian smirks.

“Yes sir!”

The man says.

“You heard The Commander, go after the citizens and protect them!”

The man says to the army as all the army follows the citizens.

“Horrell, go with the army and be sure to keep the citizens safe.”

Salvian says to Horrell.

“Yes, brother!”

Horrell says and follows the army.

“Now then, how about we go head to head Tarand.”

Dan says as he exercises in front of everyone.

“He won’t be an easy target Dan.”

Ulric says as he adjusts his top hat joining Dan and The Third Commander.

“Three versus one, now that’s not fair you know.”

Tarand says with a smile.

Mages who work for Tarand emerge from shadows as well.

Flesty stands in front of Valerie, Kaileen and Luke.

“So we are fighting her huh?”

Luke says.

“I guess so...”

Kaileen says.

Salvian sighs, “It was my mistake to think that arresting a huge criminal was going to be easy.”

The old man creeps up behind Salvian, “I see, you want to go, Jin?”

Salvian questions the Old Man as he readies his sword.

“Of course I want to, after all, I have revenge to take care of.”

The Old Man says.

“I guess we have our own problems to worry about.”

Jack says as he looks at James.

There is a guy with dead eyes in front of both of them.

“Why do I have to fight a woman?!”

John looks frustrated by the fact that a woman who is wielding a mace is standing in front of him.

“Just because I am a woman doesn’t mean I am weak.”

The woman smirks.

John sighs.
