The higher stage a warrior was, the more they were in tune with the Qi in their body. In an instant, Rayna could feel the Qi moving away from her.
It was draining out of her body and was going into the man in front of her. She was no fool, being in the position she was in the Demonic Faction, she knew instantly what technique this was.
'The extraction technique... but I've never heard of anyone being able to extract energy this fast before!'
The grip was tight around her neck. It was clear even in his sleep Raze was using all of his force. She tugged her head back but it was useless.
Still, there was one thing that she could do, but she was reluctant to try it.
'If I can't pull away, and he's not waking up in the middle of all of this, then I'm just going to have to hit him!'
It was a last resort; she was a highly skilled middle-stage warrior. Attacking someone in their sleep, who wasn't prepared for an attack, could easily kill someone.
Yet, as more of her energy was draining away, she felt like she had no choice. Lifting her fist to the side of her head, she started to channel Qi into her fist. It was slightly harder than it would usually be due to the extraction technique.
Then, looking at Raze's face, she looked slightly down toward his stomach.
'I'll hit him there!' She swung her fist out, aimed right down. 'I'll knock the air out of him!'
Before the fist could land, a strong force was felt hurtling right in the middle of Rayna's chest. The great force had broken her out of Raze's grip and knocked her off the bed and onto the floor.

She wasted no time, by activating her Qi as if she was ready for battle.
"Who's here, who dared to attack me right now!" Rayna snarled, baring her teeth like a wild animal.
However, looking around the room, she was unable to see anything with her naked eye, but that didn't fool her because she could still feel a sinister energy in the air.
"I might not be able to see you, but I know you're here!" The sinister energy was coming toward her. She could feel the tingling sensation on her entire body.
At that point she had no choice, gathering the Qi in her foot, she decided to slam it down with all her force. The entire floorboards were ripped apart and crashed, including that below the bed.
A large part of the room's floor had been damaged and the bed along with Raze and herself all fell into it, landing on the floor below.
There was panic outside of the Inn, as people came rushing inside.
"Whoa… what happened here?" Fing asked, looking at all of the mess and destruction. "Rayna, I didn't realize you would cause all this mess on your first night. What type of freaks are you?"
Rayna's face was turning bright red, how could she possibly describe the situation when she didn't know much of what had happened herself.
Still, she rushed over to where Raze was, and grabbing the blanket covered his real face so no one could see, along with his hair.
"What's going on?" Raze asked, seeing mostly darkness.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})"I'll explain it to you later."
The two of them had moved rooms and had moved into one with two separate beds. Rayna had explained that Raze had a nightmare and had attempted to strangle her.
He seemed quite shocked at this, but she didn't mention further than that for now. Instead, the two of them decided to go to sleep, because they both felt like they would have more to worry about the next day.
When the morning sun rose, the two of them headed into the large main reception where a dragon carved out of gold stood in the center.
There were several members of the Neverfall Clan in the reception as well, all standing up firm. Then on the other side, they could see that Belil had entered with open arms.
"I heard you two caused quite a disturbance last night," Belil commented with a smile. "That's good though, if you have that much power in the middle of the night, I can only imagine the amount of power my grandson will have as well!"
The two looked at each other for a moment before continuing to follow Belil.
It was time for them to leave the city, as Belil was sending them off. He had a final gift for the two of them, and Rayna was already fully aware of what that was.
Joining them in their walk were Anna and Fixteen, but there weren't many others. The two brothers had already left, and so had many of the Pagna warriors.
While walking through the city, they were able to see some of the destruction caused. There were some rowdy warriors, as well as those that had perhaps drunk a little too much causing them to cause a bit of mayhem for the city.
At the same time, many of them were starting to leave as well as the regular citizens starting to return now the grand day was over.

While Belil traveled separately in another carriage. Which gave some time for them to talk.
"I should tell you about what is about to happen," Fixteen spoke. His voice in a serious tone. "Right now, we are heading to where the Flesh Clan was once located.
"You might have heard of them recently; they were the clan that had attacked the Dark Faction but failed, and in that failure, they lost everything including their land.
"As for the clan that had taken it over, it was the Neverfall Clan."
"Belil plans to give this land and town to both of you as your gift. It will no longer be land belonging to the Neverfall Clan, but land belonging to the Dark Magus."
"The Clan Head has asked me to join as your advisor in running the town and as your advisor I want to make you aware of a few things."
"Belil is true to his word, he will treat you as an outsider, but owning land in the Demonic Faction is something only some Pagna warriors could hope for. You have your foot in the Faction and are becoming a larger part of it."
"You need to start making your place in Pagna so that you are in a better position to protect your items and the rest of your business."
Hearing Fixteen out, Raze thought things were certainly working out for him. Land where he could safely hide from the others in, a town to call his own.
Maybe if he could use the people, he could carry an army of his own. After all, those he was going against had armies of their own, and the Dark Faction leader was unable to do anything even with the entirety of the Dark Faction.
The carriage had come to a stop, and exiting out of it, they could hear Belil's voice instantly.
"The land of the Flesh Clan now belongs to you!" Belil said with open arms. "And with that, I will take my leave, but be careful, the Flesh Clan owned a Dimension, there is a good chance that it would be a good excuse for a certain someone to come attack you."
