When the first scouts noticed a shadow approaching in the distance, they got up and tried to run and alert the others, but they fell on the ground at the very moment Zaos used Sleep.
Instead of picking up the pace, he just walked normally toward the camp. He only stopped the scouts out of habit since the first line of defense soon noticed Zaos and equipped their weapons to fight. At first, the soldiers didn't recognize Zaos and looked down on him since he was only armed with a single word and didn't have a shield, so they dashed toward him. However, when the first soldier tried to stab him with a spear, Zaos moved to his left side in a single fluid motion. They then swung his sheathed his sword two times in a quick motion, hitting the soldier in the shoulders before he could even finish his strike.
