Meanwhile, at the dynasty.

Two women were standing at the entrance of the town.

One is wearing a tuxedo while the other is wearing a donning decorated dress, with elbow length sleeves, a knee length skirt and boots, as well wielding a Guandao.

Their names are, Taekwondo, or Taek for short, and Lady Red Jade, or Jade for short.

"Jade, when is the new executioner going to arrive?" Taek asked.

"I don't know, their King said that they'll arrive in 3 hours through the forest, but i don't see them anywhere" Jade said.

"Jade, it's nearly over an extra hour we've waited, what if something happened to them?" Taek said in a bit of fear.

"Hey, you've heard about the Vail Kingdom's Knights, they're strong and fast, no one would ambush them." Jade assured her.

"I hope you're right.." Taek sighed.

Just then, some rustling began to sound from the bushes.

The two then gets into a fight stance.

"What do you think it is?" Jade asked.

"Hopefully not just some people trying to ambush us." Taek said.

Then, in the blink of an eye, an axe was thrown out of the bushes, and landed in front of them.

They were startled not just by it suddenly appearing, it's the size that scared them.

"It's almost the size of you!" Jade said.

"How tall do you think the person wielding it is?" Taek asked.

"I don't know!" Jade said.

Then, out of the bushes, comes out Doe.

His clothes were scratched and ripped, as well as his pants, due to the guard knowing his escape, he nearly died.

Because of how long he had ran, he went unconscious.

Jade and Taek stared at his body.

"Taek, get him inside, now!" Jade instructed.

"Alright, alright!" Taek agreed.

Both Jade and Taek lifts up Doe's unconscious body, but because of the lack of strength both had, they nearly dropped him.

Soon, they were inside one of the minka houses.

The two puts Doe down on the ground with his head on a pillow.

Jade ran to the back and grabbed a bowl of water, along with a towel.

Taek grabbed a fan and began fanning the poor Executioner.
