“Now!” Henrik did not hesitate the slightest when he decided to attack. A sword light…. that is the thought of this soldier before he felt the pain The sword edges reflected the light of the sun in the distance, and before he knew it, he feels a slice on his neck Henrik in that one swift motion, from dodging to moving his sword, it was like a dance. The footwork, moving slightly but dodging completely, that elegant sword move, moving the hand slightly, the force forceful, like a rushing tide Those who saw it would think that Henrik learns some methods of swordsmanship from some sword master “Argh!Argh!” that is the only sound that is coming out from the soldier. The soldier looks at him and then the soldier clutches his neck trying to stop the blood from flowing out probably the soldier also knows that it is useless. But it is like an instinct. Involuntary reaction. But Henrik was meticulous in his sword strike. It is swift…but it is not light. That one moment of slicing, the force was transferred from his hand to the tip. The slice is fast, the attack is deep. The blood keeps spurting and the soldier could feel his life is draining away. And he slowly falls down. But Henrik is no longer looking at him. Instead, as his eyes becomes heavier, his last view was Henrik foot leaving his body Henrik did not know the thought of that soldier, nor he has the time to think of such meaningless things. “These two people are the dangerous one. But at least, I have destroyed this one obstacle” Why did Henrik die the last time? Is it only because he was careless? Time. He wastes too much time. If he had more time, even if his sword is stuck, he could have the time to pull it out, but because he did not have time, he could only suck it up and accept death at that time Dying thirteen times…. that is not a pleasant experience. It is different if he died and did not feel pain. It is a different thing to die and feel pain Those stories that said “after feeling pain so much you become numb to it” they clearly had never felt the pain of dying. It is not just before dying, that you felt pain. Right after he closes his eyes and death comes, that is the moment he feels pain the most. In that moment, it felt like something…. something yanked out something from him And this act of yanking…. feels him with unbearable pain. The pain was only a second…. but that pain lingers. That lingering feeling slowly dissipate with each death…. but that one second of pain during that yanking feeling….it did not lessen with each death Fortunately, it also did not intensify. One thing is clear. It is not a good feeling at all. Though now, is not the time. Henrik tries to remember what happens before. At that time, both of them clash. Their reflexes are almost the same. The soldier he had just killed deflect his sword and he let it fall through and using the momentum he ducks away. The sword nearly cut off his head and, in that moment, he pullback the sword tip to point toward that soldier and in that one moment, he thrusted forward, piercing that soldier throat. That is what happens last time. The sword is then stuck the two people rush towards him, the one with the axe and the one with the mace. And that one hurls a throwing axe at him, he dodges and on that other side, the person with the mace jump to his position and smash his face with the mace “I could hear my own skull cracking before I died. The only thing good about that death was that it was fast” The two soldiers see that Henrik had killed one of their men. And just like before, tehri face turns red and they rush toward him “No! You dirty peasant!” Henrik look toward the one holding the axe. And Henrik started turning “Hyargh!” Henrik runs toward the axe wielding soldier and then he slides forward ducking at the same time. In that moment, Henrik dodges the throwing axe. Yes, the moment that person shouted, he quickly grabs the throwing axe hanging on the side of his hops and throws it at him. And in that brief
