[Deep Inside The Forest]
As both sides engaged in combat Melfina dashes to the right while Rebecca took care the bandits at the left
As Melfina lounged herself at the bandit she brandished her dagger and quickly swipe sideways killing one bandit that was still in confusion on what's happening
"Guhah!"
As one bandit fell another one sneaked attacked her from behind
"Die!"
Immediately Melfina did a split to avoid the sneaked attacked and did a twist hitting the bandits foot making him fall to the ground
As the bandit fell Melfina reversed her grip on her dagger and stabbed the bandit on its chest killing it
After that she pulled the dagger out and threw it at her right killing the other bandit that was charging at her
When it fell Melfina quickly stood up and took out her bow that was hanging behind her and aimed at the other bandits while running backwards
*****************
On Rebecca's side she clashed her sword at the bandits sword and with this deadlock she swiftly slides the bandits swords through her sword then she spins around and slashed the bandit at its throat
Straight away she dashed forward to a another bandit right infront of her
Seeing a swordswoman charging at it the bandit brandished it's dagger and thrown it at her
Immediately Rebecca tilted her head dodging it and thrusted her sword forward
Clank......
Unfortunately another bandit went inside and blocked her attack while she was surrounded by two bandits at her side
Seeing this Melfina straightened her back and aimed her arrow
With a deep inhale she released her grip at the moment her concentration reach it's peak
So fast as lightning a whistle suddenly passed Rebecca's ear and when she look up the bandit who blocked her attack had an arrow pierced through its head
With this opportunity she spins wildly deflecting the incoming attack
After that she threw her sword at the bandit infront of her but the bandit immediately parried it but the next moment Rebecca stabbed him with a short sword whispering

"I'm not an adventurer for nothing! Don't underestimate women!"
As she said this the bandit fell as for the other two they were shot down by Melfina
The fight just begin and ended like that in a flash as if few seconds only passed by and as they started to relax they looked back at Kaido who is torturing the other bandit
This time that afformentioned bandit lost its two legs and one arm while it writhes in pain and crying
"Please..... Stop.......I......sorry...." Begged the bandit
Hearing this Kaido tilted his head
"Sorry? For what? Did you stop when a girl told you to stop? No I your answer right?" Said Kaido
Hearing this the bandit insisted
"Please..... Forgive..... Me...."
"Forgive you? You didn't even do anything to me so why would you ask for my forgiveness? Now god might forgive you... but the one who decide to send you to him is me" said Kaido
Hearing his answer the bandit grew scared
"HIII!!!...."
"Tell me..... Didn't you did it with the child with a smile like this?" Said Kaido
As he said that he showed the creepiest smile he can make and quickly snapped his neck
As he stood up he murmured
"Damn lolicon!"
When he met back with Rebecca and Melfina they said to him
"Aren't that torture a little bit too much?" Asked Rebecca
"Too much? Nothing is too much! They are just scums of the society" replied Kaido
"As expected of you kaido-sama" complimented Melfina
As they talked Kaido breaths in and yelled loudly
"Hey! You damn leader of a bandit! Come out here coward! You just let your men die like that don't you have any dignity!?"
Hearing his words Rebecca reacted
"Huh! Like your one to say!"
"Shut up! No one asks for your opinion!" Said Kaido
"Why you...." Reacted Rebecca
At this time she really wants to atta kaido but she knows that she will die I she did that so she stopped herself
While Melfina just kept quite and understands Rebecca's feelings
"I'm warning you! If you don't get out from where your hiding I'll drag you out" taunted Kaido
As he said that a bandit showed up from the darkness of the forest showing his hands held up as if surrendering
"Fine! Fine! You caught me! I surrender! Now please arrest me!"
As he said that Kaido tilted his head as if confused
"Arrest you? Why would we did that? Isn't it better to kill you here?"
"Huh? What do you mean" asks the bandit leader
At this Kaido smiled while gesturing that he will kill him
"I said isn't it better to kill you here than to let you live?" Said Kaido while smiling
Hearing his words the bandit leader panicked
"You.... You.... Was what you said a lie? Where's your honor?"
"Honor? I was talking about your honor not mine.... I never said I have honor did I?...." Said Kaido
As he said that the bandit leader became scared of Kaido as if the situation reversed that they were innocent while Kaido is the killer
As he tried to run away Kaido chased him and later that day a cry of pain and agony can be heard deep in the forest
***************
As they walks out the forest with the body of the bandits stocked at its carriage
"Can I ask a question? Why would we have to carry this corpses" asks Kaido
"That because this guys have price over their heads and we would get their rewards if we gives them to the city" explained Rebecca
"Oh I see! Then fine do what you want" said Kaido as he sits back and positioned his siting as if he's a lord aristocrat on some place
As they travelled Melfina took care of the maintenance of their weapons and Rebecca is the one who's driving the cart while Kaido just sits back and relaxing himself
Actually not a simple relax cause at this moment he is simultaneously spreading out sound waves to detect any presence nearby like a radar
The moment he opened his eyes he said
"We're here"
