Kapitel 177: After meeting you

Being afraid of death... It is an instinct embedded in humans since birth. There might be exceptions, but most people avoid the danger that might threaten their lives. It's a natural fear, one essential for the survival of the race.

The swordsman halted midway through his words, sending a sudden peek at his prince. The bluehead was staring at him with a smile. His face stood bright, and his eyes, although hazy and lightless, were bent into two crescents, matching with his curled-up lips. Looking at him now, he didn't appear to be the same person of a few nights ago; reaching out for a blade and begging to be beheaded.
