The Samurai Tales

Vasilisa was pouting her face and was sad in the corner because she didn't get to use her Berdan rifle.

Ryujiro: "Hey.. It's fine. You can use it on other enemies."

Wu Ming and Zhang Liang get ready to fight behind Ryujiro.

Ryujiro turns back thinking that they are traitors but they were getting ready for a big wave of enemies sent by Empress Cixi.

Zhang Liang: "I think they're here to kill us.. Because the Empress wants to kill you people herself."

We see that Dowager Cixi was standing outside the Inn. Sending fighters to kill Wu Ming and Zhang Liang.

Cixi: "Too bad that they betrayed.. I liked them. I was even about to give them a chance to touch me.."

Back inside the Inn.

Hall area, where the fighters are assembled.

Ryujiro: "How did that empress got to know that you two betrayed her?"

Wu Ming: "She's here.. Outside the Inn. She sent spies who are expert in hiding themselves inside to look what's happening."

Ryujiro: "So she IS here, huh? Let's finish these fishes off first."

Zhang Liang: "We can handle them.. Don't worry."

Ryujiro: "Huh? I thought you're weak. Oh yeah you already wanted to join me so you must have acted that way. I'm so dumb.

But still. The cuts that Yuki left on you aren't healed yet.. so don't fight."

"Hmph... We're warriors.. Ryujiro. Warriors who want revenge.

These cuts are nothing."

Wu Ming and Zhang Liang start fighting with swords and killing all the people sent by Cixi. One by one.

Vasilisa runs and slides on the floor.

She shoots a guy's head with her rifle and immediately jumps to use an arrow like a sword and kill another one.

Vasilisa: "Jackpot!"

Ryujiro: "Man, she's scary."

Three guys escape from Wu Ming, Zhang Liang and Vasilisa and reach for Ryujiro.

He picks up a wooden sword and hits their heads smoothly in a straight line.

"Don't make me tired."

Vasilisa takes out two more arrows and kills 12 people continuously.

Ryujiro: "Aw man.. too much blood. "

Yuki: "Look who's talking."

Ryujiro punches her head softly.

"What did you say?"

-"Ahhh.. Nothing, sir!"

Vasilisa's eyes were wide open and a smile was growing on her face while killing everyone.

Ryujiro: "Can't you just use a sword?"

Vasilisa: "Not a bad idea. But I don't have one. Maybe I'll get it forged after you become the king. Because I know you will."

Ryujiro smiles.

Wu Ming and Zhang Liang come to Ryujiro, tired by fighting.

Zhang Liang: "Huhh.. Ryujiro. Who is that woman? Is she a psycopath killer or something?"

Ryujiro: "Maybe."

Vasilisa stands on the floor. Blood covered all over her. And everyone was down.

Cixi enters inside.

She was not looking happy at all like she always does.

Vasilisa: "Oh.. hey. Dowager whore. Why are you wearing clothes? It's unusual for you."

Cixi was losing her mind and getting angry.

"More than 50 people.. Finished by these bastards?"

Ryujiro: "No. You're mistaken. I was not involved. These three did it."

Cixi: "Wu Ming.. Zhang Liang.. I'll make you realise who you betrayed.

And you. Girl.

I wasn't taking you seriously at first. But I might remember your name.. State it."

-"Vasilisa.. Vasilisa is the name. Remember this name because it will haunt your country for eternity."

Cixi: "Sure.. This massacre alone is a moment to be remembered. I'm excited to see what you do in the future."

Cixi quickly takes out a gun and shoots it at Yuki.

Ryujiro moves fast but he misses...

The next moment. He sees that Yuki was down on the floor.

Cixi: "Let me finish off the weak ones first.. They don't deserve to live."

The blood was spreading near Yuki's heart.

Ryujiro was down on his knees, holding her.

Cixi shoots another bullet at Ryujiro but he blocks it with his sword.

He slowly stands up with no expression at his face.

"What did you do... You.. You know what you've done.

Right..

Right..?.

Dowager Cixi!!!!!!!!!"

The scream makes the fearless Cixi tremble with fear.

Cixi: "Wh.. Why am I.. shaking. Stop.. Calm down. You're the empress of this country."

The next moment.. She sees Ryujiro's hawk-like eyes in front of her.. Red.

Cixi: "Am I.. Am I getting killed... By this brat!!???"
