Chapitre 382: Side Chapter: Into the mountains

Empire Soldier's POV:

I was given the order to do some recon on the mountain near Cromer City. I needed to report on what happened to the soldiers the higher-ups sent to capture Ken. They must've sent over several hundred soldiers, just to capture one person and it was a swordsman. I didn't understand the significance of the swordsman Ken to the Empire, but I knew he must've been really important. Since even though those soldiers might be on the weaker side compared to the most elite units in the Empire, they were still above average. Learning they haven't returned or even sent a message the higher-ups wanted an update of the situation. With the current situation of the war, they couldn't send too many people, but they couldn't just send nobody, so they decided that someone with significant ability should go alone and do it. Which is where I enter the scene.
