Capítulo 44: 044
One of the best things about having your own carpentry workshop is the amount of tools you can use to cut body into smaller pieces ... it made it so much easier for me to get rid of the bodies of four night guests... my work immediately become more enjoyable.
I got home in the morning, Itta was preparing water for my bath ... when she saw me, she screamed and dropped the pot of hot water in fear... I was covered in blood all over me, so her reaction wasn't weird.
Lagertha rushed into the room to see what the noise was. She walked over to me, kissed me, then licked her lips, which had some blood left on ... a normaly Sunday morning.
- I wanted to help you during the night, but I met Mira on the stairs and she told me to stay at home, just in case. A few minutes later she came back, showing me that it wasn't worth getting up.
- Nothing serious ... Jarl has four less people. One hit me on the cheek with an ax, there will be a scar.
Lagertha examined my wound and then cleaned it ... it wasn't too bad. At least I haven't lost my ear, and I don't have burn scars on the half of my head, and I still have all my teeth ... I went into the tub and my muscles relaxed wonderfully under the hot water. Lagertha started washing my body ... which didn't end well for her in the beginning ...
- Ulf ... Itta ... is looking at us
- Let her watch. At her age, she probably did it too.
Lagertha grabbed my face and bit my lips ...
...but in the end my wife was satisfied.
Two days later...
- ULF !!! ULF !!! ULF !!!
I opened the door to find out who is yelling like that in front of my house. It was Olafur and he was alone.
- Olafur? What are you yelling ... you scare my hens. You can't knock like a normal human being ... Forgive me, I forgot about your hands.
He ignored my mockery.
- Jarl told me to inform everyone that there will be a meeting tomorrow at his house.
- Okay, I'll be there for sure. Then you have to go around a lot to let everyone know ... it's good that your legs aren't broken. Be careful when you are next to Floki's house, it can be slippery there and it's easy to have an accident.
I came home and told my wife about the meeting at Jarl's house.
- Ulf, is it safe?
- Yes, there will be a lot of people, he can challenge me to a duel in public, but he will not. I suspect Siggy is behind this meeting.
- I wouldn't trust them. They're definitely planning something.
- Of course they plan and I don't trust them ...but I trust their greed.
The next day over a hundred people gathered at Jarl's house, everyone who had participated in my trip to the west and the rest of the local people who had not sailed for the raid organized by Jarl.
- Hello everyone, and thank you for coming so many. I thought for a long time about the situation between me and Ulf when he returned from the raid to the west. It was my fault. So I would like to fix it ... Ulf you can come over, I'd like to announce something.
Now I was sure it was Siggy's doing, Jarl was too quick-tempered, she was more calculating and composed. I figured what Jarl would say too. I went to the center of the room.
- Ulf, you went west and brought great wealth, you did something great. Therefore, I would like to offer you that when my ships return from the east, that you lead my entire fleet west. Do you agree?
Of course, it was similar in the series, I want to know my secrets to get rid of me later ... but I had no secrets in the form of a sun board or a sunstone ... we were sailing along the shores, my only advantage is knowledge of the terrain and knowledge of Latin... but his proposal was very convenient for me, I wanted to loot a city where a certain bishop lived. Big, rich city ... impossible for forty people to conquer, but for four hundred it shouldn't be a problem... I decided to rub some salt on Jarl's wounds.
- Good is Jarl who can admit a mistake and apologize, so I agree to this proposal. My dream is for the inhabitants of Kattegat and the surrounding area to be rich and swimming in gold, envy is a trait of small and mean people.
He didn't like my short speech, but officially I didn't say anything wrong.
- Ulf, I see you have a cut on your cheek, is something wrong?
- I shaved my cheek with a new blade and cut accidentally, fortunately I didn't shave my neck because I could lose my head.
Jarl talked a little more about some nonsense, but I didn't listen to him. I let Floki, Ragnar and the rest know that I wanted to hang out with them.
We met in for a beer at Leif's house.
- Look, I don't have much time. Jarl plans to discover how we sail and where we rob. Certainly among the crews there will be his trusted people ... perhaps he will also want to get rid of me or one of you to get back at me. Three days ago, last night, he sent four men to burn my house down.
- And what happened?
- Nothing, I think they changed their mind ... they're around here somewhere.
I explained to them my plans to plunder a large city, I also explained to them what the bishop's seat was and what treasures might be there.
(***** **** POV)
Where am I? What am I? ... My body is ... now I know ... not far ... how many years has it been. Ulf ... Ulf ... I'll meet him tomorrow. tomorrow ... everything tomorrow ... this lightness and clouds ... faster ... faster ...
