Chapter 108 Hope to Live

The whimper gradually sounded and began to converge into a sad river in the narrow long road. The students lowered their heads and looked at the already cold body.

In this damn place, even if they want to bury the bodies of their companions, they can't, because this dark and evil place is definitely the birthplace of the dead. If it is not solved as soon as possible, maybe when the dead companion waved the butcher knife at him - that is the most painful thing in the world!

Star looked at the sobbing students and closed their eyes sadly. He didn't know how to comfort the children. Or the idea of including them in their own team was simply a wrong behavior. The student whose body had cooled down, his hand was still holding the star tightly, and the shrinking pupils had lost their brilliance forever.

He was originally one of the most troublemakers among the students... But now he suddenly calmed down, and Star is very unaccustomed to it.

Although Star wanted to force himself to be cruel, his conscience told him... he couldn't take these rookies to die.

"Derson, from now on, you take these students out of the cave for me... This is my first and last task for you. From now on, you are free, and you are no longer my servant. Star brushed the face of the corpse and closed his still closed eyes. Get out of here and go back to the tribe.

"Lord, I don't!" Desen shouted, "I won't go. We don't have any soldiers who are afraid of death. Even if they die, they have to stand and die on the battlefield."

Derson was also covered in blood. The bear skin he had been wearing on his body was almost shattered, which was the mark left by the corpse-eating demon on him. The snow-white ivory was also broken, and the right side was also full of cracks. With his strength, he can completely escape and will not be so seriously injured. It's all because it helps Star block all the attacks from behind.

"I order you!" Star suddenly pulled out the sword nailed to the ghoul and put it on Deson's neck. The master has the right to decide the life and death of the servant. If you don't follow my orders... I will pierce your throat without hesitation.

'Dang...' with a loud noise, Desen took action.

Olefin's proud knife drawing only flashed a strong light in the trembling light, and at the same time, Star's sword was beaten away from Desen's throat. Star's hand trembled slightly and never raised it. Then I am no longer your servant, and you are not my master. I will never follow you again...but I have to go down this road by myself.

Desen turned his back and inserted the knife back into the sheath with a 'sounding' sound.

"Go back to me, too..." Star looked at the group of students. He tore off the bright red cloak behind him, took off the badge embedded in front of the armor, and broke the sword given to him by the Holy See. From then on, I left the Holy See, and I am no longer your officer... Go back to me if you still cherish your life."

"What are you going back for?" Nick took a step forward, his armor had already been smashed, and the shirt inside was also scratched by the corpse-eating demon. The body is full of tragic scars left after the battle. Nick tore off his armor and took off his cloak. Let the old archbishop laugh at us, or let that bastard get us a charge of escape, or let the killer sent by the devil kill us on the way back to Witherspoon?

The wind blew through the cave, and the flame on the moss came the sound of 'tearing and tearing'. The swaying firelight illuminates everyone's face, and it says perseverance!

The exhausted students looked at Star and slowly stood up. They pulled off the shattered armor like Nick.

"What are you doing? I said get out of here, didn't you hear me?" Star frowned. Get out of here... Are you all deaf? Go back to Witherspoon and be your princess prince. I don't need subordinates who don't obey orders, and I don't want you rookies to be my subordinates.

In the end, Starr almost roared out. He didn't want to watch these children, who are no different from his age, die.

The students were silent, taking off their cloaks one by one, following Nick's appearance, and losing the badge of the Order of Judgment, which symbolizes honor.

Star understood their thoughts in an instant. They wanted to be the same as Desen... refused to obey his orders and firmly followed him to face the demons that would appear soon.

"Serr... Please allow me to call you that for the last time." Nick slid down his eyebrows with his sharp nails, and a blood stain suddenly tore the firm face in half. Please also allow us to avenge our dead companions again! If we run away like this, even if we live in the future... we will feel uneasy for the rest of our lives. Because watching his comrades-in-arms die in front of him and there is nothing he can do, which is the greatest shame of the knight.

The students also cut their faces with their nails... This was originally the custom of Bi Meng, and they did not take revenge!

Star was silent. Why was he involved in such a thing? He only needed to stay here after Witherspoon and Disha's side effects were over. Who pushed himself to the position of honorary head of the Holy See, and who interfered with himself all the way, pushing these children to the edge of death again and again?

Star bit off the white gloves that had been soaked with blood, and his nails scratched from his eyebrows.

"As your officers, I am no longer qualified to forgive my incompetent officer. Because I promised to bring all the people back alive... Since everyone doesn't want to leave here, promise me to go back alive." Star picked up the badge given to him by the archbishop. Of course, I won't let this man live. I swear... I will let his soul fall into darkness forever!"

Everyone pulled off the blood-stained cloth on the clothes and stuck it on the top of their heads. And Desen also did not hesitate to break the remaining Olefin teeth, rather to break the jade than the tile!

The body was not buried on the spot. Because the rule of the Holy See is that the bodies of fallen knights should be taken back. After receiving the blessing and comfort of the priest, they can be buried again, which can purify the soul and make them ascend to heaven.

But no one wanted to go back, so until the end, Star not only failed to take them to Witherspoon alive, but also couldn't even take their bodies away.

The bodies of their companions were neatly placed, their faces were so peaceful, and the only blood stains were gently wiped away by the surviving girls. Star kissed everyone's forehead and confessed to every dead student. Everyone learned to do it according to Star's appearance, and finally formed a circle around the body and knelt down on one knee.

Sta stroked his chest with his left hand and a sword in his right hand, with a painful and solemn face. The glory of God will accompany you for the rest of your life. Lost partners, your deeds have interpreted humility, honor, sacrifice, bravery, mercy, spirit, honesty and justice. Your names will go down in history, and your deeds will be remembered forever. Because you defended your honor with bravery and the land with blood. You are the embodiment of love and justice, and the most dazzling light. May your souls continue to lead us forward..."

Every student was reciting the eulogy in a low voice. Unconsciously, everyone was already in tears.

Star raised his hand, and a flame on the rock wall flew to the top of everyone's heads. Goodbye, brothers."

The fire fell into the corpse, and the jumping flame quickly covered the reluctant eyes of the crowd. Star looked at the gradually extinguishing flame, grabbed a handful of ashes and ate it... Then Star took a deep breath and said in a smallest voice, "I will be with you."

"I'm with you..." The students cried.

After saying that, Star turned around and shouted sharply to the students in front of him. Do you want to be laughed at by the demons? Dry your tears, we are not cowardly, let alone losers. Bring the wishes of your dead companion, let's go! Revenge for them!"

The casualties in this battle can only be described as tragic. There are only about sixty students... Except for the guys who just closed their eyes forever, there are only 27. And this was just the beginning, and they didn't even see the shadow of the sinking demon. Although the strength of sinking demons is not stronger than that of ghoul-eating demons, there is no doubt that their 'infinite resurrection' will make people more headaches.

The bull has been gnawed off his arm by the group of guys, and the original rock-like muscles have exposed white bones... He is trembling slightly. Even if Star stops his blood, he can't help him reduce pain. There are also several people sent by other forces, who have more or less lost their combat effectiveness, and they did not choose to leave, but stayed where they were.

"I'll have you escort you back." Star looked at them, and until now he still wanted to use these little tricks to get rid of the students.

"No, that will waste your limited power. And what you should do now is not to be dragged down by us useless people. The bull slave supported his body with a double-edged axe and faced Star. Brother... If we can all return to Witherspoon alive, I hope you can join the conservatives... Lord Doriel, he is a good man."

"I promise you." Star nodded. Go back with this badge... I hope you can find Agarish and ask Disha to help me."

"No problem." The bull took the badge with a smile.

But Starr turned around crying. On this day, he shed more tears than he shed in the alchemy castle. Those ghouls have not gone far, and the way they came in has been blocked... and they have been looking for opportunities. Star understands that Bulls just don't want to drag themselves down... and they give up the chance to survive. By doing this, I just want to give the bull a belief to live.

Because as long as people are alive, there will be hope!
