Chapter 114: Preparation for the ambush
“So Vikings, you did all this because according to you I would be interested to know the information you have.
But not only that, you have the courage to say that my people are very idiots for not knowing how to read Latin. “
Anders, who was looking at the two Vikings with his one eye, smiled and approached one of them to touch his shoulder.
“I’m going to tell you something and I hope you remember it very well, I’m not interested in the information you have and I’m not even going to pay attention to the papyri that you carry in that leather bag covered in blood.
Well, unlike you, my dear Viking friend, like a berserker I pay more attention to fighting at the moment and facing whatever happens to me.
What are you going to know about challenges when you only face peasants armed with simple rusty weapons?
I have faced well-armed Christian armies led by nobles who feel immortal because they believe that the simple fact of being chosen by their God has the power to destroy us.
You know what I do to those damn nobles when I have them in front of me; I cut off their heads and then took it with my own hands and using the cross with which they were attacking us; I impaled them.
To leave them as a reminder, those who attack us are nothing more than a few pieces of shit, which are not different from any person … “
When Anders finished speaking, he approached the Viking’s ear, sensing that something was wrong. Jens wanted to move, but Anders was faster, and using a dagger he stabbed countless times in the back of Jens’s neck.
This caused the poor corpse to rest on Anders’s body while he was still stabbing him so many times that the dagger ended up breaking when it got stuck between one of the vertebrae.
When he felt that his fury was already less, Anders took a deep breath and threw his body to the ground so he could look at the other Viking in front of him.
“Your partner was quite an idiot and now he’s no longer alive, so tell me Viking are you going to tell me what you know or you’re going to end up as your partner.
Although no, perhaps I will not give you the privilege of being able to die without suffering, so go preparing because I will take care of making you cry like a bitch. “
Kaleby who had lived countless experiences and killed countless people had never felt so much fear in her life.
So he glared at Anders, and taking a deep breath he squeezed his rusty sword to point it at the neck of his friend’s executioner.
Anders feeling the edge of the sword brush his neck gave the Viking a smile and moved a little closer to the sword, causing his neck to bleed a little.
“Kill me if you think you have courage, stupid Viking, you know very well that you are nothing more than a piece of shit who is afraid.”
The Viking gave a desperate cry and tried to brandish his sword to try to cut Anders’s neck, but it was completely useless.
Anders, seeing that the Viking did not even know the correct way to kill, used his ax quickly and buried it in the armpit of the arm that was holding the sword.
This caused Kaleby to cry out in pain and he dropped his sword as his badly severed arm lost the ability to grip the sword.
Holding her arm in pain, Kaleby fell to the ground and looked in horror at Anders who had a disappointed face.
“Warriors are looking at this …
This is what happens when you let simple unscrupulous bandits go to sea and feel like Vikings. They may look very strong on the outside, but on the inside, they are nothing more than mere garbage.
You saw it; I allowed him to assassinate me, but the idiot believed that it was necessary to raise his sword to cut my neck.
Here are the consequences of his actions lying on the ground holding what is left of his arm while trying to hold back the tears because he knows that today we are going to die.
But since I am a man of my word, I hope you can understand that I cannot kill him at this moment, however; I believe that you can take care of doing that for me.
So my warriors presented them today to the sacrifice of the day. Please make him suffer as much as he can and the poor idiot who killed him without suffering enough will take his place … “
You warriors looked at each other in silence and began to walk towards the Viking who was lying on the ground who began to ask for mercy but it was too late.
While this was happening, Anders approached the corpse of the other Viking and
She took Juan’s leather bag, took out the scrolls, and using brute force, removed the seal they had.
To the surprise of Fritz who was close to Anders, he watched as the berserker began to value the scrolls without even blinking, so he ended up giving him a strange look.
When Anders finished reading the scrolls, Fritz looked at him with a smile.
“Don’t tell me you were thinking that because I’m a murdering berserker, I can’t read stupid Christian lyrics.”
Fritz wanted to say something but could not refute Anders since he never thought he could read.
Anders walked over to Fritz and handed the scrolls into his hand “When I was a brat I had a friend who was obsessed with the Christian Bible.
The son of a bitch made me learn to read it, just to be telling me the advantages it had and the bad things that we did as Nordics.
But you know despite a whole day he went crazy and killed my family, in retaliation I killed him and ended up burning my house so that his corpse will not reach his god.
By the way, when the Viking on the ground stops screaming about his body to Fenrir, the little wolf deserves a fresh and lively meal.
I’m sure you will fall in love with the taste of human flesh, the more you like it, the easier it will be to make you kill the garbage that attacks us. “
Anders looked at the strange look of Fritz, who seemed not happy with his explanation, so he patted him twice on the shoulder.
“The parchment does not say anything important, it only mentions that the emperor will pass near this place in two days and will do so with a lot of gold and precious jewels.
That is a clear invitation for us to attack them, but at the same time, it makes me understand that someone intends to occupy us like a slaughterhouse knife.
It may also be that I am wrong and that these bastards simply got the information after murdering some person or messenger who had the misfortune to carry such documents.
In any case, I am not interested in what they have done; the information is already in our hands so we just have to plan the attack.
We don’t lose anything doing it and if we can really gain something valuable, I think we could benefit, not to mention that if we don’t kill his emperor, I could tell him that we were commanded by the stupid queen.
In that way, the hatred between the two would be so great that they would end up launching a war that would perhaps last years and could eventually end with the defeat of either of them.
But that is what I want to see the most since that way I could have my revenge more easily since as more people die, groups of bandits will be created which we can absorb.
To be able to create at the end, a great army with which to behead that dog and later go to fulfill the promise that I made to an old king.
Anyway, take care of what I ordered. Seeing so much blood made me hungry. “
The next day, at a good point chosen by Anders, all the warriors began to work, placing some traps that were difficult to see.
“Work with all your might gentlemen because tomorrow blood will flow through this forest and the gods will be glad of the sacrifice that we are going to give you.
Remember to keep the traps very well hidden because if you realize it we will lose the surprise factor and then we will have to fight against an organized group of Christians.
Which will be better armed and trained than most of us, so very possibly we end up hanging in a public square for the enjoyment of those damned.
Also, remember to gather as much dry wood as you can to create a circle of fire with which we will prevent you from leaving this place alive.
But the most important thing and that I will not tire of repeating is that they must keep the emperor alive, who must be the best dressed and armed person.
If we kill him, we will simply have failed, so I will take care of killing the stupid one who dares to do such stupidity.
As for everyone else, don’t worry about murdering them and don’t hold back in their actions, one of those bastards dead is one more mead in Valhalla. “
All the warriors who were listening to Anders’ boring speech only secretly sighed and continued to set the traps in their respective places.
When they finished preparing everything it was already quite a night, so the warriors prepared for the battle that would take place tomorrow.
They sharpened their axes and swords, while others were enjoying a great meal as they could possibly die.
But in the end, all of them were happy and in their faces, you could see their desire to fight against that group of Christians who will take care of the Christian emperor.
