At his command, two mercenaries immediately charged at Liam with a dagger in their hands, stabbing at Liam's arms. However, Liam stood in place without moving a muscle. He did not even bat an eyelid.

Blood steamed on the cold earth. Mercer defenders fought fiercely—arrows rained, blades slashed, formations tightened again and again—but Damian fought like a creature that had forgotten what mercy even looked like.
