Capítulo 43: Chapter 37 Ambush_2

This was the first Samurai to die for Xiulote.

The battlefield did not halt for anyone's death, it demanded more blood. Bertade urgently turned and looked down, patting Xiulote's face. The young man quickly looked back, his expression void of the pain of being shot by an arrow, devoid of fear between life and death, simply a little lost for losing a friend. The world-weary warrior let out a sigh of relief, then checked Kusola's breath and sighed again.

"Guardian Priest!" Bertade called out to the surrounding warriors with a heavy expression. He then placed his shield on Xiulote's body, turned, and ran toward the nearest archer.

More than a dozen followers quickly surrounded Xiulote, using their shields and bodies to protect him tightly. The rest spread out with shields in hand and pounced on the ambushing warriors.
