Chapter 12: Acquaintance? The mud rises up toward the air, the sound of the churning soil and water exploded. He dashed forward, his feet kick the ground and in that one moment he lunges forward. “Argh!” in that moment Henrik thrust forward with all of his strength Whoosh! One moment. That is all it takes. One moment of neglect, one moment of distraction, and then a stab straight to stomach In that moment, that soldier panicked, and move his sword to his stomach. The intention is to deflect. And Henrik sword move get deflected but Henrik smiles. In that moment, for both of them, it felt like time slowed down. Henrik smiles and the soldier saw it, and he feels his heart drops. A smile of confidence. That alone give the soldier the premonition that something is going wrong. “Gotcha!” borrowing that momentum of deflection, Henrik pointed the tip of the sword toward the neck The soldier knew right there and then, he would die. The hand would not be fast enough to move the sword to deflect And in that moment, the soldier even forgets to jump back. The mud holds his feet, and the mind was thinking about the sword and just right before the tip of the sword reach his neck, his mind finally remember he could jump but by now…..it is too late And the sword stab right through Shritt! It is the sound that Henrik is quite familiar with. Though before it is always him listening to this sound before he breathes his last. This time the sound is heard on someone else flesh. And the sound different when he heard it from other source This is the sound of tearing. But not the tearing of paper, or the tearing of a bark, but the sound of the flesh being teared by something sharp. Each time Henrik hears it, he felt his heart sank. This kind of brutality, one would only see it in those forbidden videos. Henrik himself avoided seeing such videos. He believed that desensitizing oneself with such videos and such thing would change the brain chemistry and change how you look at people. But now, he had to watch it. And not only watch it but do it. However, Henrik did not have time to ponder much longer. He had killed this soldier and before he could even try to savour this moment of winning someone rushed toward him and shove him away. Thud! Henrik falls to the ground. Once again mud splashed onto his face. Mud, flesh and blood. All three of it he could taste it on his mouth. “Hey!” And then he heard it. An arrow struck to the ground inches away from him. He looks at the arrow just a few inches And then he looks at the face of the person who had just shoved him out of harm way “If this person did not shove me, then I am going to die again” he thought to himself. He was shocked for a few second and he was dazed for a moment, but that person said something to him that quickly break him out of the daze “Henrik, the line is broken! We need to run!” Henrik could not make sense of this word for a moment but then he heard it HHOOOM! HHOOOOM! A horn sounded somewhere and this horn sounds echoes all over the area. But it is not so close to this battlefield But it also did not seem far away And Henrik could not help but frown. “Let’s go” Henrik did not even know who this person is but he clearly knows Henrik and for now, this man does not seem to mean him harm. Henrik did not have time to even look closely at this person as he runs alongside this person. All around the battlefield, there is people dying and falling. Right now, he did not know where to go. He still doesn’t know where he is now and where he is fighting. Around him, the rebel soldiers that look at them also follows them. And this person seems to be encouraging people to follow them. Henrik did not say anything because he fears that he would slip up. This person clearly knows him. But he did not know anything about this person He did not want to slip up. What if this person is close to the original body? What if this person think he is some kind of devil or an evil entity when he discovers that this Hen
