The hyenas were still ready to strike. The enemy commander had said that she would give them a chance to survive, but they couldn't just trust her like this. In case the enemy went against her word, they would die fighting.

"What is your proposal?" the black general asked.

Shira only continued smiling deviously. "Does it matter? Two Lords are surrounding you. You have no choice but to accept."

The black general gnashed his teeth. He hated it when someone talked down to him like this. Sadly, there was nothing he could do. These two Lords could eradicate all the hyenas easily.

"Okay," the black general conceded. "What will you have us do?" he asked.

"You all need to win a life and death duel. If you win, you join our Tribe. If you lose, you die," Shira said as she slowly crept on land. As soon as she came on land, the others noticed that her stomach had a huge bulge. Apparently, she had already finished eating her prey.

The black general narrowed his eyes. "This sounds too good to be true. What's the catch?" he asked.

Shira only continued smirking. "Since you're the losing party, I will decide who fights whom. That's the catch."

The black general looked at the floor with furrowed brows. This still sounded too good to be true. After all, if they would join the Tribe when they won, it would make no sense for the enemy to pull any dirty schemes. This would only weaken the force of their Tribe. No commander would weaken their own Tribe like this.

"Okay, we accept," the black general said.

Shira snickered a bit. "Very well, follow me," she ordered to the hyenas. "You're allowed to create a pathway to the mountains. Forcing you to swim is too disgraceful," she said.

The black general was a bit surprised at that. The enemy commander even considered their honor? Apparently, this commander was a rather respectful and honorable snake.

"Follow her commands," the black general said.
