Chapter 341 Take me to him...
Like the colors of a peacocks feathers, Mani pulled attention on his person immediately he walked into the room.
It was not the first time they were seeing him, but the sight of him naturally made many feel little tingles of shiver down their spine.
Although this was the first time he was coming to the headquarters as Barbara had given him jobs upon jobs the moment he decided to fight for her, he still walked in with a presence that gave one the impression that a wild beast had arrived.
Mani was just coming back from a mission he soloed alone. This was a Mission to free a certain village off the enemy that was the Vandorian Army.
This was a mission well completed, and had long reached the ears of these generals before his arrival.
Of course, that was also including the bloody massacre that he caused to achieve it.
They were many in the Union Army that already had nicknames for him.
Some called him Rabid dog. Some called him the Death bringer, and some others called him the Chaos birther.
One thing that all these nicknames had in common was that they all spoke volumes about the destruction he carried with him.
Mani walked into the room, his purple robes were slightly tattered and the stench of dried blood ushered his arrival.
There was no smile or anger on his face. But that did not mean that his expression was dull. It was just void of life, but his eyes still managed to look at the Generals in the room like he was looking at a bunch of clowns.
It was not pride in his eyes for the achievements that he had, but loathe for life itself.
On seeing him, one of the generals stepped forward. He was a red Aura user. He stepped forward, stretching a hand to shake Mani by the elbow as it was a tradition of Aura warriors during battle.
"Well done Mani! You really showed those idiots the strength of the tribe."
However, Mani passed by him like he had passed by a chair.
This was an embarrassing moment for the General, and it made him grit his teeth in anger.
But he was not so foolish enough to show that he was offended in front of Barbara.
Mani walked up to Barbara, and then he took a knee before her. His eyes showed his deep respect for her as he bowed his head.
"It is done!"
She nodded as she patted his head. "Good! Very Good Mani. Because of you, more of our people can suffer less and see more mornings with their families. Your wife would be proud of you!"
Those words made his head lower even more.
It was at this moment that a soldier rushed into the tent. From the boldness by which he walked in, it was easy to tell that he was a high ranked officer.
"Commander Barbara! We have a situation."
Barbara raised her head at him, "What is it? can't you see i am busy?"
The officer bowed his head, "Forgive me Commander. It is just that we have a situation that requires your attention."
"What is it?" She asked with frown brows.
"Its...Its..." he stammered a bit, and then he turned and waved a hand outside the room.
Some soldiers pushed in two cultivators on a wheelbarrow forward.
These were the Copper rank cultivators that had been sent to bring Chiron by force to join the army.
For two of them, their legs had been bent to look like the turns of a screw. Each in a different direction.
The last Copper rank cultivator explained what had happened.
At first, Barbara frowned but towards the end, she couldn't help but smile.
"Interesting!" She took a look at the three copper ranked cultivators.
Two of them were at the early copper rank and the last one was almost at the peak of the rank.
She could not help but be impressed. After all, even a cultivator at the peak of the copper rank would have some difficulty fighting off three copper ranked cultivators.
It was important to note that at this stage of cultivation, the experience these men had accumulated was not in any way little.
Their fighting styles were also very good.
Barbara could not help but stare at the injuries they had sustained and her smile got wider.
Just then, one of the Generals stepped forward.
"Commander Barbara! let me take ten copper ranked cultivators along with me. I am sure we will be able to bring this fool to you to pay for his crimes!"
"No! You will do no such thing!"
"But commander... he disrespected..."
"I said No!" She turned to the officer and he immediately bowed his head, avoiding eye contact with her.
"Besides, it wont change anything. Even if i sent you with twenty, you will all end up the same way.
This person is a talent. He was able to injure two copper ranked cultivators to such an extent without damaging their meridians. In fact, they are still flowing perfectly."
It was only now that everybody using their aura on the victims, sensed that she was right.
"This person does not intend trouble with us. This was only a warning." Barbara licked her lower lip. This was action that sent shivers down the spine of the generals.
Those that knew her well, knew that this was a habit she had when she was interested in a new toy.
"Such precision and talent!" she muttered to herself.
She turned to Mani, "I know you just came back, but I'll be needing you to come with me."
"Yes Commander!" Mani stepped forward, responding with respect.
"I am so excited, I can't wait!" She chuckled a bit as she exited the room, "Take me to this cultivator!" Barbara ordered.
Meanwhile, Abel appeared from the ground at her exit. His appearance was not at all surprising to the Generals. He was well known by them.
He walked over to the injured men, and then he squat a little, observing their injuries, he frowned. "That does not make any sense!" He commented lightly...
