"N-no.." The aide stuttered "But I was just curious. I saw times when Eliane shows up when Raoul is getting cornered by a forest monster, the monster would back away from him and her...and reluctantly leaves...or escapes..."

Raoul regained his senses and runs after Eliane.
Meanwhile, Marcus, the servants are being debriefed by the bandits working with the Ragashani Kingdom, which was forced into the mountains after the Corossanian settlers moved to farm on their land a century prior.
"That's one for those foreigner thieves." the warchief thanked Marcus as they stash the gold.
Meanwhile, half-mile nearby, a Ragashani guard looks out for any threats that they are being followed by the Gendarmerie.
The warchief returned "Ahh, yes, that son of a son of a bitch whose grandfather killed my brother and stole our land from us." The other Ragashanis laughed.
"Too bad, foreigner." Marcus, a Ragashani in blood, spoke "Blood is thicker than trust."
Raoul struggled to charge at Marcus, but Eliane's restraint along with her monstrous prevented him. He shouted at Marcus, bu the gag made his speech incomprehensible.
(What Raoul tried to say:)
Why? You're Father's most trusted farmhand. Just why?
Eliane jolted forwards a bit, but grabbed the lead with both hands and pulled him backwards, while maintaining the appearance of normal human strength. "You got something to say, boy?" She pulled the gag out of the way.
"Marcus, for fuck's sake, FATHER DID TRUST YOU! He is also planning to leave half of your farm for you!"
"Come now, Raoul, you think that half of that land is enough compensation for my family's misery? You and your foreigner kin's parents, grandparents and great grandparents caused so much suffering not only mine, but others as well. We Ragashanis will take care of each other, as much as you filthy foreigners do."
Raoul could not say anything more, but left one last line. "I hope the Demon Lord torment your souls."
Marcus fell down dead and the guards were alerted. "What the..."
Raoul immediately charged at the guard nearest them and using skills he learned from sparring with Eliane, he took his sword and stabbed another guard trying to spear him, but he flipped the spear sidewards and pierced the guard's heart.
Eliane used her rope dart on several guards.
(Rope Dart fight. Can stop at 2:25)
