11Please respect copyright.PENANAKZwQTqrg5uCRASHHH—Glass shatters.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAVavrJpXcEP
Screams erupt from the maidens and children inside.The second reaper steps toward them.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAYtjaDgVtG1
SHHRMM—
Blake’s arrow pierces his skull. The reaper tumbles three stories, hitting the ground with a sickening thud.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAw0bS81rAIO
Metro and the first reaper lay broken into the pink room — glass everywhere, families screaming.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAMgK69V2lrn
The reaper kicks Metro off.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAqPWPt6QfY0
Metro stumbles backward, falling onto his back — head dangling over the railing, staring down at the silver‑and‑black swarm below. The reaper leaps onto him, knife raised—
11Please respect copyright.PENANAThoN9q02Fv
—SHHRMMM—
Another arrow from Blake.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAYne6x9J4GM
Straight through the enemies back.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAMQEbVDme7Z
The reaper collapses onto Metro, knocking into him, he rolls, gasping, gripping the ledge with one hand as he dangles over the battlefield.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAMDYdwY3jxk
Below, the war unfolds.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAcUTGpTJ2IV
Paul stands at the very front — axes drawn, shadowed eyes burning like coals.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA7hdV8MS1uq
He lifts one finger.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAbMPgLUFhy9
The infantry men move as one.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAFBS5cuUmwI
INFANTRY:
“HAAA!”
11Please respect copyright.PENANAlr8aQC5Ui4
Shields slam forward — unbreakable.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAWGi762Ft6L
INFANTRY:
“HAAA!”
Spears thrust — the frontline bandit wave collapses.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAqKdgZ4U2mM
INFANTRY:
“HAAA!”
11Please respect copyright.PENANABrRmONw1H0
Another synchronized strike — bodies fall in rhythm. Paul roars over the storm.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAcQEVA9DxZE
PAUL:
“WEAPON SMITHS! WATCH OUR SIX!”
11Please respect copyright.PENANAvjkZLNENjC
The battle rages.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA9JmR16bplR
THIRD STORY YURT—
11Please respect copyright.PENANAZgBlnphR4s
Kathryn sprints forward along the top platform, around the back of the village, boots slamming the wet planks, breath tearing from her chest. Below her, the bandits flood through a shattered backgate like a black tide.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA5Iv7jBPGf7
She sees husbands dying.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAn1pL7RY3D2
Friends falling.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA2W71JaTsIU
Men she trained with — collapsing under blades and clubs.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAYERar4DUsJ
Her breath breaks.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAP40t7mxfgG
Her fingers tremble as she reaches for an arrow. Her eyes swell — anger, grief, resolve — all crashing together in a single violent heartbeat.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1BGi7xvdF
Then—She fires. Relentless and precise.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA5uPbQVhwGC
A techno‑beat of arrows slam into the battlefield. Her arms move swiftly—
11Please respect copyright.PENANA94ODbOsBhd
— drawing, releasing,
11Please respect copyright.PENANA2zpcA6j4iX
draw, release —
11Please respect copyright.PENANAGUIYnpeOqs
Her lip curls upward, fighting tears. She grunts slightly. Then whimpers, eyes swelling with tears.
11Please respect copyright.PENANABOMNNVqYiv
But she never stops.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAk7nrtgyLD3
Metro lets go of the third story balcony and drops to the second. He lands beside Rose just as she slices the next vine—
11Please respect copyright.PENANAPxRILPeaRk
WHOOSH!
11Please respect copyright.PENANAEKvwDothZE
A massive boulder swings free, whipping out over the wall like a mighty slingshot.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAiKz1c9NVmN
BOOM!
11Please respect copyright.PENANAonKxp22X25
It crushes three bandits instantly — bodies fly like rag dolls, limbs spinning through the air.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA2VxUEeQGZ1
Metro joins her, slicing the last three ropes in rapid succession.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAQTGSKHtXyx
Some boulders miss, smashing into the mud with earth‑shaking force. Others hit dead‑on — pulverizing bodies, snapping spines, scattering the bandits over the wall, crushing them like grapes.
11Please respect copyright.PENANALazcKYdpD1
Rose rushes inside, hair whipping behind her. Ana and Lilly grab her, drag her in, and slam the purple frame shut. A metal staff locks the door. Cries and whispers echo behind it — fear thick as smoke.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAa9bzhsHbLr
Metro climbs the steps two at a time, hearing armor clash, men screaming, steel ringing like bells of doom.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAQeLk6Aa32k
He reaches the third‑story balcony—And stills. Expression hot.
11Please respect copyright.PENANACwOrKEhcTJ
The battlefield is carnage.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAPRUJcKTczI
Bodies everywhere.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAbkL3wntn7Z
Smoke rising and blood mixing with drizzled rainwater in dark rivers.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAYXejc0iTsm
Then—KABOOM—
11Please respect copyright.PENANAG9olPBjFHL
A dynamite blast tears the front gate apart.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAFWQjAghjjU
The shockwave throws friendly infantry backward — bodies flipping, shields spinning, helmets rolling. Through the smoke, dozens bandits charge in, roaring like beasts.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA4VuMUE2tbg
Gregory and Sam fire their crossbows—
THUNK—THUNK
11Please respect copyright.PENANAkSxxxxX1Nx
Two bandits drop instantly.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAm4R89YAbLN
Kathryn and Blake fire from above — arrows slicing through the smoke, hitting targets they can barely see.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAW5Eiqf8GMu
Metro scans upward for more reapers, running in a tight circle through the archers, eyes darting, senses flaring. — Paul shoves infantry aside, stepping forward like a titan from another realm.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA6OSYwxMJjH
Green aura starting to shine.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAh17o1ZjFam
Cornelius stands in front of him, silver‑platinum armor glowing from rays of sunlight through the canopies, already holding off five bandits at once.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA4xJ2g73sCw
They rush him —Cornelius blocks, parries, staggers, recovers — his movements sharp but strained.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA53H3wfo7w6
Paul front‑kicks one—
11Please respect copyright.PENANAfDaRLg6Ayt
WHAM!
11Please respect copyright.PENANApHjK083Zih
The bandit flies backwards.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAPM5z7PJz9z
Paul chops another to his left —a brutal downward strike that drops the man instantly.
11Please respect copyright.PENANADhKzijuCc2
PAUL:
“ERRGHH!”
11Please respect copyright.PENANAByy6qxpySZ
He spins right — the back end of his axe cracking a jaw sideways with a sickening snap.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAObOB2zmm7n
Cornelius drives his sword into a fallen bandit, pulling it free with a grunt.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAe7iUlSTLy8
The last three bandits turn to run.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAehQ4Qfz1eR
Paul throws one axe—
11Please respect copyright.PENANAbkjtQT77sx
THUNK.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAEOcpWc6FTe
Then the other—
11Please respect copyright.PENANAnNKH6cOHdw
THUNK.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAWXPxx7ASYA
Two bandits collapse screaming, sliding across the mud. Metro leaps from the balcony, levetating slowly for just a moment, then drops, landin in the dirt, knees bending to absorb the impact.
11Please respect copyright.PENANA4asD6Rk32l
He rises instantly, sprinting toward the shattered gate, mist clouding his vision.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAOEWLNVyrYm
Bombs detonate inside the camp — one, then two.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAKESLPJBlDJ
BOOM.
11Please respect copyright.PENANAkEnVugbFpx
KABOOM!
