There was no change on Saito's face as he ordered them, "Concentrate on your next target. Change the position of your group and stand in front of that bandit."

The group obeyed his order and all of them started to move towards their next target. The other groups saw this and had a slightly jealous look on their faces.

It meant that the group would only have to focus on one target and they wouldn't need to move around at all. This was a great advantage. Compared to the other groups, they would be a lot less tired now from this point onwards.

They were also fired up and started to hit the bandits even more fiercely than before because they also wanted to enjoy this advantage.

Soon, more than 10 groups followed who managed to destroy the ribs of their first target. 

Nobody pitied the bandits who had their ribs destroyed. They were in a great amount of pain and wanted nothing more than to run away from this demon.

This was a heartless way of torture. It brought them to tears as they were feeling so much pain but their mouth was sealed. They couldn't even scream out in pain making it even more torturous for them.

Even though the other bandits' condition wasn't as bad as the ones who had their rib bones destroyed. They weren't in much better condition. After all, the male groups had been in successfully cracking nearly five pairs of their rib bones.

From every fist, they experienced great amount of pain. Even the ones being hit by females had stopped looking at them with lecherous gazes and was instead looking at them with terrified expression.

After continuing this for 2 more hours. Out of 100 groups, only 60 of them had managed to successfully destroy the ribs of their first target.

It was pitiful to see that only one of them was the female group which managed to destroy the ribs of their first target. The rest of the female groups were far behind them.

Saito didn't say anything to them regarding their results. He never spoke anything. He brought out the other half of the beast's carcass and told them to eat it until they were full.

Now, who among these villagers didn't want to eat until they were full after the hellish task that they had been doing for 6 hours. They happily roasted the bodies of the beasts and ate the meat until they were full.

After that, Saito ordered them all to bring their bedding outside in the forest and sleep together with their groups.

They slept outside their houses while staring at the open sky which was twinkling with stars. Saito finally let the mental exhaustion take effect on him as he fell down on the ground and took the support from the house behind him.

He thought with a troubled look 'Even with the power I possess, the resources I possess and the information I possess. It is such a mentally vexing task to form a force from scratch. I can't let them see me struggling. I need to leave a strong impression in their minds, only then would they follow me and give me their complete loyalty. I am still far too behind my plans…'

He let out a sigh as a thought occurred to him 'Heaven can't be conquered by a single step. It looks like these words are true. It's a journey of countless steps with many casualties. I should get some sleep now…'

He also started to sleep to recover himself. There was no way he would be able to stay at his top form if he didn't use this chance to recover his mental strength.

In the execution ground. One by one, the injured bandits started to die. The damage done to them seemed to have been incredibly great.

There was not just the damage to their rib bones. Their internal organs had also started to bleed. Due to no treatment, the internal organs continued to bleed within their bodies and slowly flooded all their other organs.

The organs slowly stopped functioning and the body tried to force the use to vomit the blood. However, Saito had completely sealed their movements and mouth, how could they even vomit.

The blood continued to gather in his mouth however they weren't able to spit it out of their mouth. So, they were slowly choked to death.

The bandits who had chuckled in the morning when they were being hit by the fists of the skinny villagers wore faces with great terror written on them.

This was a really malicious way to kill someone. It was such a slow and agonizing death that one wouldn't wish it on their worst bandits. However, Saito had used such a method to deal with the bandits who hadn't incurred Saito's wrath.

It was really difficult and terrifying to imagine what would happen if someone did incur his wrath. There was just no saving that person from a life of eternal suffering ahead.

Silently, these bandits continued to die until the number dropped from 200 to 32. The 16 among the ones who were left were all the bandits who had been assigned to female groups to kill them.

They looked deathly pale because they could sense that death was near them. Even if someone saved them now, there were just too many injuries within their bodies. There was no point in living. They really regretted coming to this village and doing all those evil deeds. However, regret was pointless in the flow of time.

They wanted to suicide but how could they do so when they couldn't even move. It was really amazing how someone was able to force these bandits to the point of despair that they thought that death was a blessing.

The next day, Saito woke up early morning. He went towards all the location where all the villagers were sleeping and woke them all up with a loud and commanding voice, "WAKE UP!"

His shout managed to wake them all up in one go. They looked incredibly sleepy. They looked like they wanted to lay down and go to sleep. Some felt as if waking up was just too painful. They couldn't even stand due to the sudden expenditure of their physical strength yesterday.

However, Saito cared about none of that. He spoke to them in a domineering aura, "Follow me to the Execution Grounds!"

His words were naturally obeyed.

When they reached the Execution Grounds. The complexion of all the villagers changed completely as they stared at the corpses of the Bandits being hung on the Pole.

Saito's face expression never changed as he expected this to happen. He thought that they might last until the end of the second day but it seemed as he had overestimated the strength in the body.

The other people who stared at the scene felt a chilly feeling in their hearts. They didn't understand why but they didn't feel anything. Neither good nor bad. Just normal.

They didn't speak out their feelings because they thought that it might annoy Saito. Saito stared at the 32 bandits who had surprised.

He knew that 16 of those bandits were the ones he had assigned to the female groups.

He spoke out with a calm voice, "Do you see this scene? Make sure to remember it… If you feel they are too pitiful then remember the last three years of suffering. You should all get used to this scene since this shall be what you all will be doing from now on."

He continued to speak as a more commanding aura was released, "You are all going to be my soldiers. My subjects. Obey me and you shall not suffer. You will be able to eat meals until you are full. My only rule is to obey my orders. They are absolute. Those of you who will serve me step forward. The ones who do not want to be my soldiers can take a step back and run away. I shall let you run away and stay alive."

There was no hesitation on the faces of these weak looking villagers. Each one of them stepped forward while hardening their hearts.. They looked straight into the eyes of the bandits.
