Chapter 1411: Recruitment [8]

Hershel finished the trial of body after experiencing death for the first time.

But his reaction wasn't what one expected.

He was on the floor, holding his head and rocking back and forth. He had the qualities of someone who was going to go insane, but his mind was actually torn.

On one hand, the feeling of death terrified him. It made him feel cold and empty. It was a void that he absolutely wanted to avoid, however, it was also strangely comforting.

That scared him even more. Why would he feel such a thing from death? As if it was family, as if it was something for him to love.

He didn't know what to think of himself, and every time he thought back to the feeling of that goblin's knife digging into his body, he got phantom pains that reminded him of the experience.

However, he was also somewhat calm.

His own actions in that moment were immensely surprising as well.
