nIn another residence, Sanders was currently facing an unknown entity alongside his hidden guards.

nunlike Marder, Sanders always had at least 30 hidden guards with him when he was away from his city.

nBut even though he had been prepared, he still found himself in somewhat of a disadvantage here.

n.

n'Pthow! Pthow! Pthow!'

n'Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din!'

nSanders ran anxiously, while looking backwards from time to time.... as if he was avoiding some sort of demonic entity.

nDammit!!!!

nWhat the hell was going on here?

n.

nPreviously, he had been talking to 3 of Marders men in his bedroom chambers alone.

nOf course, his secret guards were all hidden within the room, just in case Marder had sent these men here to pull a fast one on him.

nBut just as he quickly remembered something and abruptly leaned forward..... he soon heard a loud cracking sound from behind him.

n.

n'Prack!!'

nThe wall that he was just leaning on, now had a hole in the spot where his head initially rested.

nBy a stroke of luck, he had missed some sort of attack to his life.

nWhat the hell?

nAll this happened in a matter of seconds, and even though he didn't know what was going on, he still subconsciously felt that if this attack would've hit him..... then he would be dead by now.

n.

nVery quickly, Sanders dropped to the floor and rolled away.

nHim!!

nA dignified city lord, had actually rolled away like a riffraff?

nPreposterous!!!

nIf someone would've told him that he would do this, he wouldve called them a jester and laughed it off instead.

nBut right now, he was doing just that.

nHe swore that if he died, he would strangle whatever spiritual being was doing this for all eternity.

n.

n'Sling!!'

n'Pthow! Pthow! Pthow! Pthow! Pthow!'

n'Drrrrrr!!!!!!!'

nThe other 3 men besides Sanders unsheathed their swords while shots were being fired.

nAs for Sanders, he was rolling away from the scene in shame.

nFrom there, the saga continued with all his hidden guards revealing themselves, in attempts to save their master.

nThey stood in front of the rolling Sanders, and tried to stop whatever attacks were coming in with their swords.

n.

nThey even closed their eyes, and tried to gauge were the attacks were coming from.... as they had once had to block off incoming arrows before.

nBut, how could an arrow speed compare to that of a gun?

nOne would need to risk their lives and practice with actual bullets, just to master a bullet's speed and trajectory.

n(*This isn't the matrix bro)

n.

nSince they couldn't see whatever was coming their way... They closed their eyes tightly, as they wanted to stop their sense of sight, and heighten their other senses instead.

n'Pthow!'

nThey could hear the sound of the bullets leaving the gun..... but surprisingly, they couldnt hear any whistling noises at all.

nThis was definitely strange!!

n.

nTypically, when an arrow was shot..... one could almost hear some whistling noise, as the arrow tore through the air at a somewhat fast speed.

nThat's how they could als cut down incoming arrows with their swordsas well.

nBut why weren't these weapons similar to arrows?

nAnd why couldn't they hear any whistling noises from these ones as well?

nThe answer had to do with speed.

n.

n'Thack! Thack! Thack! Thack! Thack!'

n'Ahhhhhhhhh'

nSeveral bullets hit them numerous times in just a few seconds, making them vibrate vigorously from the bullet's impact.

nThe men breathed hard, as if they were having panic attacks..... while trying to calm their chronic hearts.

nThey faces grew paler by the second, as more bullets continued to rain on them from the windows, as well as one of the side doors within the bedroom chamber.

n.

nThey truly thought that they were fighting against a spiritual being because firstly... how kme those hidden guards outside the residence hadn't sent them word about any intruders?

n

n

nTypically if it were an enemy track, those outside would send 1 or 2 people to signal their master about any intruders outside the bedroom chambers.

nBut how come none of them had signalled anything yet?

n.

nTheir answer was simple!

nThese intruders had used night vision binocular to spot out all their enemies.... as no human being can be hidden from these glasses.

nHenec it was safe to say that those hidden guards outside had been 'well' taken care of right now.

n.

nWhile some of the guards were shot down by the raining bullets, those who were standing directly behind those that were shot... soon used their comrades bodies as shields, and quickly followed their rolling boss out of the room.

nFighting the unknown was something that even they themselves had never trained for.

n'Boss wait for us!!'

n.

nOnce he left the room, Sanders immediately stood back up and made a run for it as quickly as he could..... with some of his hidden guards following him from behind as well.

nThey ran through the long winding corridors in fear, as they tried to outdo the footsteps that they had heard inching in from behind their pact.

nWait!!... footsteps?

n.

nAs they listened while making a run for it... they soon realized that these attacks had indeed probably come from intruders.

nBut what sort of weapons did these intruders have to deal with them like so?

nAnd who were the people who could actually produce such weapons?

n.

nWithout thinking any further..... Baymard's name immediately appeared in the minds of Sanders and every fleeing hidden guard there.

nThey smiled bitterly, as they now understood that this small empire had come for them because of today's attack.

nIn their heads, what they had to do now was make a run for it and loose these bastards so as to secure their safety.

n.

n'Pthow! Pthow! Pthow! Pthow! Pthow!'

nAs they ran... their numbers soon dwindled down as those at the very back, kept dropping down like flies.

nAnd just like that, Sanders and 2 other surviving hidden knights quickly entered another room..... where they hurriedly placed their swords across the door handles..... as well as heavy objects in front of the door itself.

n.

n'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!'

nAs the banging sounds continued, they fearfully stepped back.... while trying to look for any exits within the room.

nThis room was on the third floor..... so they would have to jump down if they wanted to escape.

nWhat do they do now?
