The Medallion

Israel dashed forward and firmly grabbed the commander by the collar. He then turned to the soldiers and warned, "If you want your commander alive, surrender now!"

The soldiers shot each other nervous and frightened stares.

"What are you waiting for? Surrender to him!" the commander, fearing for his own life, immediately ordered his troops without a second thought.

Yet the soldiers still hesitated, uncertain of what to do next.

"You can't surrender!" A loud voice suddenly boomed before a figure floated over and landed directly in front of Israel.

"It's you!" Israel exclaimed as he immediately recognized the figure standing before him as Basil.

"Have we met before?" Rocky asked, pretending to not know Israel at all.

The latter's eyes widened in disbelief. He managed to successfully disguise himself during his previous altercation with Rocky so it was no surprise that he wouldn't be recognized.

"Who the hell are you? What do you want? Whether we surrender or not is none of your business!" the commander shouted furiously at Rocky, his nerves slowly getting the better of him.

Rocky showed him the token Devin gave him before he began to explain, "This is an official authorization from Commander Devin. The commander of the Cloud Castle has surrendered to the enemy in fear of death. He has been dismissed from his post. From now on, the soldiers of the Cloud Castile will be under my command!"

"Don't believe his nonsense!" the pale-looking commander shouted helplessly.

"Soldiers, listen to me! Retreat into the Cloud Castle!" Rocky turned around after ordering the soldiers before striding towards the Cloud Castle's gate.

The soldiers didn't dare to disobey him and decided to follow him closely.

Not long after, in the front of the Cloud Castle was empty with only Israel handling the surrendered commander.

Israel never expected Rocky to appear out of nowhere and take charge of the Cloud Castle so quickly. This meant one thing—he would be his next opponent.

"Tie him up!" Israel commanded his soldiers. He decided not to kill the commander immediately because he might be able to provide him with some valuable information.
