Shadow Slave
Chapter 12
Right now, that obstacle was looking down, avoiding Sunny’s gaze. His hand was resting on the sword handle. As always, the young slave had no idea about what was going on inside Hero’s perfectly shaped head.
The uncertainty was making him nervous.
Finally, after some time had passed, the soldier spoke:
“I have only one question.”
Both Sunny and Scholar stared at him while holding their breaths.
“Yes?”
“You said that one of us must be sacrificed to save the other two. Why him? From what I see, you are far closer to the grave.”
‘A great question! I was just about to ask it myself.’
Sunny turned to the older slave, trying very hard to suppress a mocking grin. But to his dismay, Scholar had an answer ready.
“Before the first attack, he was already bleeding because of your senior’s whip. During the attack, he was drenched in the blood of a fellow slave. His cloak, too, was soaked in it when the previous owner died. The boy already reeks of blood. Keeping him alive will put us in danger. That’s why he is the best choice.”
The grin died before reaching Sunny’s face.
‘Curse you and your big brain!’
Scholar’s reasoning was appallingly solid. Hero listened, his expression growing darker with each word. Finally, he looked at Sunny, a dangerous light shining in his eyes.
“That is true.”
Sunny felt his mouth getting dry. Cold sweat was running down his spine. He tensed, ready to act…
But at that moment, Hero smiled.
“Your logic is almost unassailable,” he said, unsheathing the sword. “However, you failed to account for one thing.”
