章 35: Threaten?
Rhaet seized her from head to toe, then looked at the women behind. He thought for a moment before saying, "You are quite brave, and a beautiful one at that."
"We will follow you, and we will work for you."
"So tell your men to keep their hands to themselves," she said firmly, her gaze unwavering.
"Or what?" Rhaet smirked.
"You men are pushing us, women, around. We only exist to please you. My husband has never let a woman hold a weapon, and he thinks we are weak."
She pointed sideways at the amber-colored liquid. Now that she had shown him, Rhaet looked at it. It was all over the place where he and his men were standing. He and his men didn't pay attention to that, thinking that it was nothing.
His brows narrowed, looking at the strange liquid. Then he turned to Eliza.
"Promise me, promise me that the women and children will be spared."
"We don't know what you might do to us. We are tired of being prisoners. This needs to be stopped. We had enough of your men's idiocracy."
Sner was a man who felt women were very inferior to men. Their tribe followed a strict rule that women should not wield a weapon and stand against men. They were oppressed and made to shut their mouths.
"And what are you going to do if I don't?"
"Then you and your men will die here."
Eliza knew that this man would come for them. So she prepared a welcome for them.
"If you throw a spark of fire on that liquid, then you and your men will burn in flames."
"Do you want to see?" She asked him, then looked back. A young girl with a torch came outside.
Rhaet was now certain that liquid was like fuel used for fire.
"Hahahaha! Damn woman. You really prepared well.
"I wasn't planning to kill."
"Even if you didn't ask, we would have made you come and work for us."
"Okay, let's just go."Then he and all his men laughed, seeing those women.
"Come on, hurry up." "We have to get going."
"Scatter and search." "Bring anything of worth."He ordered his men.
Then he said to Eliza, "There's your promise."
Eliza, still with a severe expression, stared at Rhaet for a minute. She tried to threaten them but failed to do so. Rhaet had a different reaction. However, she got what she wanted, so she returned to the hut. She instructed them to bring only what they needed and waited for Rhaet and his men to follow.
Eliza tried to reason with Rhaet by threatening them, but Rhaet had no intention of killing them. He wanted to take the women and merge them into his village.
He had a different vision. In previous battles, when he always won, he would kill anyone who was hostile, but he would spare if they surrendered and allowed them to settle in his village. That was why his village's strength increased compared to the past, expanding his village by adding the people of the tribes that he defeated. To build a place of his own, that was his goal. He never told anyone about it, only bringing them and making them work for him. It was simple yet precise, and no one questioned him as long as they were given food and a place to sleep. No one complained about working for him.
