The staff hit the ground again as Shang dropped it. He had proven his power already.

The commander kept looking at Shang for a bit before turning to one of the Mages behind her. "Bring them to the front," she ordered.

The Mage behind her saluted and stepped forward to bring the barbarians away.

"You, follow me," she said to Shang as she turned around.

Shang took his sword and followed her without saying anything.

The two of them entered one of the buildings and walked into a room.

The room was basically a military office. There were some maps, some chairs, some books, and there were some tables.

It wasn't anything special.

The commander gestured to one of the chairs, and Shang sat down.

She sat down on the other side of the table, looking at him with narrowed eyes.

For a while, the two only looked at each other.

"You're a warrior, right?" the commander suddenly asked.

"Yes," Shang answered with a nod.

The commander furrowed her brows at Shang.

"Do you know what a warrior is?" she asked.

"A strong barbarian," Shang answered.

The commander's furrowed brows stayed furrowed.

"No, a warrior is someone similar to a barbarian, but warriors live in the Skythunder Kingdom," she said.
