章 49: Chapter 48: The Steady Player Annan_1

Walking out the door with a kitchen knife to hack it out with Amos was neither practical nor secure.

Annan had never favored such aggressive tactics.

Though he had now lost half of his emotions, Annan believed he should be a cautious person who preferred to grow and develop.

Being cautious meant not taking the risk to overextend and kill.

Because overextending could lead to being killed in return.

The correct approach was to eliminate the opponent before they entered the range of their defense tower.

As one could imagine, this was both a very rational and cautious strategy.

Following this philosophy, Annan did not carry the kitchen knife directly in his hand.

He specifically chose a rather thick coat and wore a sweater underneath. While such clothing could be warm, it was bearable. Because it enabled Annan to hang several kitchen knives at the back, chest and armpits of the coat.
