"Throw down your bag and weapon. The Skyview Assassins have been disbanded as war criminals by the crown and ordered sentenced to death." The young noble declares, managing to make his demands with only one squeaky crack of his voice.
"You see, that is your mistake right there. You don't tell someone you are going to kill them before they drop their weapons." Cain laughs, drawing his Scimitar.
"Give up, assassin. You won't make it out of here alive. If you don't resist wet can make it quick and painless." The leader of the guards announces, as if he is certain Cain will comply.
Why must these people be so stupid? Is it because of the lack of system? That has to be it. They just assume that all humans are working on the same power level, so numbers should let them prevail every time.
When the first one charges, Cain side steps, then cuts both him and his mount on half with a single stroke of his sword, totally forgetting about the [Pestilence] effect.
