Bab 673: Assessing Their Strengths

Patriarch Rylan shook his head, "Don't worry about it; I understand the situation as a leader myself," he replied.

After hearing Patriarch Rylan's response, the Village Chief didn't dwell on the matter any further, "So who will you be sending first?" he asked.

"Leif will be going first," Patriarch Rylan responded.

Without hesitation, Leif stepped forward, his sword tightly clenched.

The Village Chief nodded, "We will arrange for one of our most suitable warriors to face you," he said, gesturing for Leif to position himself at the centre nearby platform.

As Leif took his place on the platform, he couldn't help but glance at all the people present. Besides the Village Chief and other key figures of the Village, he saw numerous unfamiliar faces; presumably warriors of the Village judging from their physique. Also, there were individuals from the unknown race he hadn't recognized yet, all adorned in beautifully crafted armour.
