Bab 170: Ambush Part :2

Dakshin Bhartiya Empire, a forest near Madikeri.

The first cannonball toward Vijay was about to be fired as the fuse was lit. Vijay, running at full speed, felt the danger instantaneously and ordered, "Dodge right." He was the first one to swiftly dodge to the right, and the guards followed suit. However, there were still three casualties as they could not dodge quickly enough.

"Dodge left."

"Swish."

"Dodge right."

"Swish."

This video game-like operation continued for a few more rounds as more people were blasted apart, turning into mist . Some were unable to properly grasp the timing of the dodge, while others tripped on something while dodging. Vijay also realized that his soldiers were getting decimated, and they couldn't dodge as well as he could. But he had no other choice. By the time the reinforcements arrived, he was sure that he would have no chance to escape with his wife.
