While Aron and Na's clash raged on, most of the Rejected Corps still believed they had a good chance of turning this battle in their favor.
The reason was simple: they weren't just random thugs. They were trained. Every one of them had once been molded by the military. They had drilled tactics, they knew how to fight in groups, and they were used to covering each other's backs in battle. In tougher fights, they could deploy formations and strategies that had once given them an edge over almost any opponent.
But all of that had become useless. And there was a very clear reason why.
There was no one left to lead them.
The Rejected Corps wasn't a unified army, it was a patchwork, a group cobbled together from soldiers who had been discarded from different branches of service. Each had been rejected, cast out for one reason or another, and while they could be dangerous when gathered under strong leadership, they fractured without it.
