Chapter 94 Bones penetrating chill (2/2)

Adrick looked the fat fellow deep in the eye and suddenly walked towards him, before forcefully patting his shoulder. He then sternly said: “You are an outstanding soldier, General Ruhr.”

He then immediately sighed, “I will go have a look at that other brat. His situation isn’t so good either.”

Ruhr grinned faintly inhaled and rubbed the shoulder that Adrick just patted. He watched Adrick depart and suddenly shouted: “Hey, Adrick.”

“What?”

“You.” The fat fellow waited a moment and suddenly took several steps to catch up, and whispered: “Don’t think that if you tell me that I don’t know, that boy, he is…”

Adrick eyes flashed a strange light: “You also found out?”

The fat fellow sighed, “Our age difference isn’t that big. In the past matter, although I haven’t witness it, but I still have ears and have heard about it.”

“Then you had better keep this secret.” Adrick immediately cut off Ruhr and sternly warned: “People who know about this matter would die very quickly. I don’t know how much you know and what you know. But please keep it for yourself. This is not a request of mine, but is my advice.”

Shaar was sitting in the tent in a daze. Sarbar and Kato had just left and Kevin’s body had been buried. The close friends of Kevin among the Praetorian Guards already wept bitterly.

The only exception was Shaar, who didn’t shed a single tear. Even when Sarbar and Kato who were worried came to see him, his face still remained calm. It seemed as if the person who went crazy and howled like a maniac wasn’t the same person today.

Shaar sat on his bed, while holding a piece of linen in his hands. He repeatedly cleaned his fire pitchfork and seemed enthralled while rubbing it. Even when Adrick walked in, he didn’t notice. Only when he was in front of Shaar, he suddenly stood up.

“Sit down.” Adrick pressed down Shaar’s shoulders. He took a look at Shaar and asked him: “How is your wound?”

Shaar smiled, “I won’t die.”

This hillbilly’s smile was like usual: simple, honest and straightforward. Even his eyes didn’t have a sad appearance. Adrick sighed and looked at the fire pitchfork in Shaar’s hand. His expression slightly changed and he immediately turned away his head while looking elsewhere, “You.”

“I am all right.” Shaar suddenly talked in a relaxed manner.

“Ah?”Adrick was a bit surprised.

“I am really okay.” Shaar said in a very serious tone: “This is the war and people die. I now understand this truth – it was only that death fell upon Kevin this time. However next time, perhaps it will be my turn. Therefore, these things happen.”

His expression was too calm, so calm that it was almost indifferent. This made Adrick frown: “Do you really think that?”

“Really.”Shaar looked very frank, “Today, when I saw Kevin die, I was very angry and even wanted to take my weapon to run out of the camp’s gate to go wipe out all of the Odins. However right now, I am not angry anymore.”

Stopping here, Shaar smiled and his smiling face was relaxed and pleasant. However the hint of unusual coldness in his eyes let Adrick feel a sense of caution.

“My foster father once told me a few words – ah, although that old man was a good for nothing, but some of his words were very reasonable. He said: against helpless matter, staying constantly sad, angry or mad, these are all cowardly actions.” Shaar exhaled, as if he was breathing the depressing things out of his chest. He then squinted his eyes and smiled: “Therefore, it’s not that I am not angry or sad. I just won’t let myself be consumed by it. I choose to act.”

“Act? Do what?”Adrick looked at Shaar somewhat strangely.

Shaar frowned and his expression was very serious. His mouth gently replied: “Kill people. Kill the Odins. This is my plan. I will go step by step – till one day I’ve killed them all.”

“But-”

“I know that this is something very difficult.”Shaar made a mocking smile, “Ah, as for the Odins, although their numbers are many. However I will kill some today and some tomorrow. Kill them slowly. I will kill them until I can’t anymore. Having something to do was always better than wasting my time being sad.”

I will kill some today and some tomorrow. I will kill them until I can’t anymore.

Adrick took a deep breath. Shaar’s indifferent tone gave him a bone penetrating chill and almost took away his breath.
