Chapter 93 Last time tolerating it (2/2)

Sitting on his horse, Hasting gave Kekkan a cold look with a commanding posture. He fell silent for a little while, before taking a deep breath and replying, “I’m going back!”

“Going back?”Kekkan issued a strange shout, “We marched for several days and nights, nearly over a thousand miles, to get here. And now that the Byzantine Empire’s strongest army is caught in a bad situation inside this fortress, you’re just going to leave?”

Hasting stared profoundly at Kekkan and grunted, “My men will set out tomorrow. If your highness is determined to stay behind to render some meritorious service, I wish you the best of luck.”

Finishing his sentence, Hasting didn’t want to face this fellow a moment longer. If he stayed a little longer, he might not able to bear him anymore, and might use his spear to cut apart this guy who angered him so much.

Only after seeing Hasting riding away with his horse, did Kekkan stretch out his fingers to wipe away the black mud from his cheeks.

Kekkan’s eyes flashed a strange light, and he suddenly said in a low voice, “If he’d really attacked a moment ago, how much assurance do I really have of defeating him?”

His tone changed immediately afterwards, and he sneered with loud disdain, “Defeat? Can you please stop kidding?! If I could block a single blow from his black-flame battle spear, then I’m already able to be considered really lucky!”

He shook his head, and it seemed as if he’d changed his face, before saying, “No no no, Kekkan, no need to sell ourselves short. One needs to understand that, even if I can’t beat him with with my skill, I can still keep myself alive…uhm, and if there’s no way out, I can still cry for help….”

The several attendants in the distance stood to the side and didn’t dare to look up. After all, his highness’ temper was always very strange. Starting to crazily talk himself, everyone was already accustomed to it.

After a little while, Kekkan sighed and shouted out loudly in a dissatisfied way, “Well, well, we don’t need to pitch that damn tent anymore. It seems as if we must immediately leave in a hurry…Alas, I’d already known, so why regret what I did? If I didn’t scheme against Hasting, that fellow, perhaps right now we would be having a victory celebration inside the enemy’s camp. Speaking of that, I might actually be a mean guy.”

The attendants in the distant who were busy a moment ago stopped their work in hand, and looked somewhat dumbfounded and stunned.

“Didn’t you hear what I said?”Kekkan impatiently waved his hand, “Prepare immediately to break camp, we must soon be on our way!”

Pausing for a moment, His eyes suddenly sank, before taking a deep breath, “Ah…light up all the candles that I brought.”

Candles??

An attendant couldn’t help but remind him in a low voice: “Your highness, right now…it’s daytime…”

“Of course I know that it’s daytime right now.” Kekkan looked at the battlefield in the distance. Above the battlefield there was still a layer of fog floating about with the color of blood. Moreover, several teams of Odin soldiers were holding their swords and being carried out from the final clean-up of the battlefield.

“Light them up…as salvation to these ghosts.”Kekkan revealed a very serious smile, “I’m a very soft hearted person.”

Finishing his sentence, he didn’t pay any attention to the attendants who were all dumbfounded. Kekkan strode inside the forest while still holding the harp in his arms, before a sigh full of melancholy was transmitted from afar.

“Ah…how I wish to listen to the sound of harp….”

Hasting quickly returned to his big camp, and when he arrived, a group of Odin soldiers had already lined up in formation. Sitting on his horse, he looked at the cavalry officer’s face which was full of anticipation.

“Transmit the order…we are leaving in a bit.”

Hearing this command, the men immediately received a big shock, but Hasting’s face was as calm as a pond, and nobody dared to question the Lord of War’s order.

“Increase your pace.”Just when everybody was preparing to receive the order to leave, Hasting unexpectedly added a few words, “I don’t want to fall into that guy’s scheme and be left behind in the rear. Humph…Now is not yet the time to kill.”
