[Kingston City, Nation of Sol, 20:20]
The sword saint gather around Kingston City's stables, grabbing their horses and guiding them onto the road. Traffic is once again stopped as horse/donkey carriages are forced to stop before the 10 000 sword saint formation. Bellatrix waits a few minutes for the road to clear a little bit before giving the order to ride out.
Bellatrix: Forward!
Everyone yells in agreement as Her horse begins galloping away while the rest of the sword saints follow behind her.
Bellatrix: (in her mind while smiling) Man being in charge is so cool! I could 100% get used to this.
[Wilderness, Nation of Sol, 20:52]
After 32 minutes the sword saints exit the lights of Kingston City and are now thrown into the darkness of the wilderness. They all turn on their lanterns before reducing their horses' speed to a trot. Bellatrix stops for a moment.
Yagumi: What's wrong Bella?
Random sword saint: She's obviously analysing something idiot.
Yagumi: Who even are you huh?!
Random sword saint: Well I'll have you know that I am an A rank.
Yagumi: I don't give a damn! I'll feed you your own heart you hear me!
Bellatrix: WILL YOU TWO SHUT UP!!! We're almost there. After that hill... all you're gonna see, smell and hear is DEATH.
Yagumi: Finally, my ass was starting to get sore on this saddle.
Bellatrix: I don't think you're gonna be so thankful when you're choking on a Cultist's blade Yagumi.
Yagumi: Pssssh. That's not gonna happen, I'm the strongest here.
Bellatrix: You're insufferable.
Yagumi: Thank you.
Random sword saint: Wow, you really are just a meathead huh? That was an insult not a compliment.
Yagumi: Well I think your birth was insult to Glorious Omni (The god of Eidolon).
The random sword saint scowls.
Random sword saint: THE HELL YOU JUST SAY TO ME YOU LITTLE F RANK...
Bellatrix takes a deep before trotting up the hill. Everyone follows including the two who glare at eachother. After a few seconds they're all on the hill overlooking the wall of the Hollowlands.
Jin and Xzaivier appear beside Bellatrix, Yagumi, and the random sword saint.
Jin: Woah! 200 meters looks way crazier in person than in random textbooks. Can that even be broken down by canons and catapults?
Bellatrix: According to what I learned at the academy, that wall's made of obsidian. So no canons and catapults alone won't be able to take down the wall.
Yagumi: Crap!
Bellatrix: Crap indeed Yag-Yag.
Yagumi: I thought I told you to stop calling me that!
Bellatrix: And I thought you knew who was in charge here. One more word out of you and I'll stick my blade up your ass.
Yagumi: Fine!
Bellatrix: Excuse me?
Yagumi: I meant Yes ma'am.
Bellatrix: Good dog.
Xzaivier, Jin, and the random sword saint giggle but immediately straighten their faces when Bellatrix glares at them.
Tora's horse trots towards the group and stops next to Jin.
Tora: Are you guys always this moronic or this a special occasion? There's literally a gate right there on the wall and I saw three more around back.
Jin: What are you proposing Tora?
Tora sighs.
Tora: We should charge into the group of patrolling cultists and roaming Darkclaw, but we should leave a few sword saints in vantage points so they can operate the canons and catapults to break down the gates.
Bellatrix: Smart...
Xzaivier: No, not smart. There's probably 1000s Cultists with Aku no eyes and rogue swordsmen armed with legendary blades hanging their feet up in cabins behind the walls. They'll be waiting for a loud ass breach. They'll probably call in reinforcements from all the cities within the walls.
Tora: Since when did you start being rational?
Xzaivier scowls and Tora scoffs. Tora turns to Jin.
Tora: F ranks am I right...
Jin: Uhmmm Tora... I'm an F rank aswell...
Tora: SO?! You're just as stupid as him!
Jin: You're right Tora. Let me massage your shoulders.
Xzaivier's scowl deepens.
Xzaivier: You're gonna let this whore speak to you this way Jin?!
Jin: Shut the hell up Xzaivier!
Tora: Exactly!
Bellatrix: Shut the hell up... all of you.
Everyone quiets down.
Bellatrix: As much as I disagree with it, we're going to have to follow Captain Gara's plan... we charge in blind and hope we live long enough to get to tower no.4. The cannons and catapults will focus on bringing the wall down.
Bellatrix unsheathes the galaxy blade (it's blade doesn't seem to be made of regular steel, it's warping shifting between every shade of blue and purple but also letting the silver of the steel be visible) before raising it into the air. Everyone else follows her lead, unsheathing their blades.
Random sword saint: Well I'll guess we're doing this then, atleast I was able to say goodbye to my adopted daughter before hand.
The Random sword saint prepares his Ink blade.
Xzaivier's eyes darken as he exhales ash through clenched teeth.
Jin: Hey Tora, no matter what happens me and my speed kanji will always be around you.
Tora rolls her eyes.
Tora: Whatever you say, Romeo.
