"Hey, kids, are you alright?" the soldier asked when he was 2 meters away from them. He didn't want to scare them with his blood-covered body, so he kept his distance.
Hearing this, the teenagers returned to their senses. When they met the soldier's worried gaze, they were unable to hold back their emotions anymore and burst into tears. No matter how strong they pretended to be, they were just boys between 13 and 15 years old.
Seeing them crying, the soldier was stunned. He let out a sigh and said helplessly, "Don't be afraid. We are the White Tiger Army. The barbarians have been killed. You are safe now."
He thought that his comforting words would make them stop crying. Unexpectedly, after he said this, they cried even louder.
Their crying finally alerted the other soldiers, and they came to take a look. Seeing the boys, 1 of the soldiers went to report to his Squad Leader while the rest stood there, not knowing what to do with them.
