Benedek look at Henrik fighting those soldiers and he could only feel shock and awe. And in the end, he could only sigh “If it fails, he would die. But if he won, he would gain the high ground, and make the danger from above disappear. Taking that spot would make them be able to see the battlefield clearer” “Support him!” Henrik could not see this but while he is fighting three soldiers, there were also soldiers on the different side of the hill that tries to attack or come near him But these people are being shot down or deterred by Benedek and Miklos who ordered their men to shower down arrows upon them Some of these soldiers tries to charge toward them but they got turned into a shooting target before they could even reach the group Miklos notice that while the noble soldiers had taken that spot, they did not take it for long and their hold on that spot is weak, their men exhausted and they did not have many archers. If they did, then judging by the elevation, Benedek group would have been wiped out a long time ago. One thing is certain. When they look at Henrik now, they could not help but think of him as the most effective fighter in their group In the timespan of around sixty second, he had dispatched three soldiers easily Henrik in that time span of thirty second defeated two people. Another thirty second is the action of dodging, sidestepping and deflecting Benedek, Laika, Anna, Miklos, Matthias and the rest of the group had never seen such an efficient killing. It was almost like they are not seeing a greenhorn in the battlefield but a veteran fighter. Henrik did not know that once again, the group misunderstand him. If he knew what these people think about, he would never accept such high estimation Because, he out of everyone knows that all of this is simply because he had something no other people had The ability to die and come back. If its not for the nature of this mechanisms, it would be like time travel. The only uncomfortable prerequisite is the fact that he had to die before he could return back to a previous point of time. And that dying is not pleasant. It is painful every time. Well, considering the situation he is right now, Henrik really did not think about anything else. Instead, he is now rushing, his feet running through the mud. He had run among this muddy land for quite some time and by now, he knows how to quickly run even amidst the muddy road. Fast, slick pick a somewhat hard ground and use your energy to pull out your feet quick before the mud pull your pants and your shoes. Fortunately, this area is not as soft and not as muddy. “ARGH!” the one wielding the axe is about to pull out his axe and, in that moment, Henrik jump up and in one swift motion, he drove his sword right through that person back “ACK!” The soldier body slam right through the ground “Uhuk!” the soldier looks at him, his two hands are still on the handle of the large axe, looking at him “You should really abandon the axe.” Henrik mutters. Though he understands why, this soldier did not do it. It is the same as what happens to him when he could not let go of the sword when the sword is stuck on the body of the person he had killed It is not easy to make that decision when the weapon is your reliance. There is also this pressure to quickly make decision So, he understands That soldier coughed blood one more time before his eyes slowly closed. Henrik then pull the sword. And then he stabs that person one more time….just to make sure. He sighed. Then he looks toward the distance. Not too far away from him. Just a few feet away “I should not torture you for that long. I know how painful it is too bleed to death” he mutters to himself as he walks slowly toward another soldier He is walking toward the soldier that was wielding the mace. He takes his time. Around him he finally noticed the people that is rushing toward him from other direction is being harassed by the group, providing some backup with their arrows. He only looks at
