Chapter 143: Berserker vs Vikings

In the middle of the sea, Anders who was enjoying the beautiful view that was on the outskirts of the ship felt a small hand that pulls him for clothes.

“Mr. Anders, the women say that the food is already prepared and that you need to enter, otherwise it would take time for the other crew members to eat.”

Anders looked at the little brat and ruffled his brown hair. “Rusell, sometimes you just have to enjoy the moment and not worry about what’s going on around you.

Also, the food can wait but I want you to observe this great sea although I really detest people who are engaged in piracy because it is unworthy and does not tan in battle, it does not change the fact that the sea is quite beautiful.

But since we are talking about food, tell me that it will not be fermented fish again, it is not that I bothered eating strange food, but it has just been three days with fermented fish.

Even I have a limit. “

Russell shook his head. “They said the fish had just gone bad so the food could no longer be served, so they planned to use some dried meat and fermented wheat grains to make some cakes.”

Anders took a deep breath and stroked his nose “Well fermented wheat shouldn’t taste as bad as fermented fish does, that thing is almost inedible …”

At that moment the words of walking were interrupted because he could see in the distance two large masts that were approaching the ship, it did not take long to realize that they were two Viking ships.

With a smile on his face from ear to ear, Anders put his hand on little Russell’s shoulder. “Today you will stop being a child and you will become a man. Go and let the women know that we have uninvited coming from the sea and what is possible that they will be with us in a short time.

When you finish ask one of the women for two tomahawks, tell them that as a passenger I will help them eliminate those dirty Vikings.

Also today you are lucky because I will show you how a berserker fights, learn well boy because one day you will fight like that too, you must learn well if you want to avenge your mother. “

Russell who had mixed feelings nodded and started running towards the women to inform them and look for Anders’ weapons.

Nelda the captain of the ship and leader of the group of women was in the kitchen eating one of the wheat cakes they had prepared when suddenly she could hear little legs running towards where she was, so she assumed it was the child she had brought that Noble.

When the blind boy in front of her did not begin to tell what Anders had told him, Nelda’s gaze became completely serious, and without wasting time she gave the order that everyone prepare their weapons.

‘Damn Vikings and they want to achieve what they cost me so much to win they will have to do it on my cold corpse, my father told me well when he inherited his place as the head of this mercantile company that I would find many problems for being a woman.

 

But even more, if I traveled by sea, I think he was right in everything he said. But that doesn’t matter since the danger is here, I can only face it head-on. ‘

It is the deck of the ship Anders who was watching the Viking ships approach heard how to get behind Rusell who was dragging two axes, with a smile on his face Anders took the two axes from little Russell and with one of them pointed to Viking ships.

“Prepare yourself with a small knife because in a few more moments the battle will begin. Remember that with the same courage in which you got the coins, you must have it to kill each of the enemies that you see to get on the ship.

It does not matter if they are women, men, children, or the elderly, your enemies will not have mercy when they try to kill you, therefore you do not have it either.

Due to your small size, you will have to target the eggs of the enemies in case they are men. That would be unthinkable if you were in a battle between men.

But you are not a man yet, you are a boy so use your head instead of your muscles, do you understand, boy? “

Little Russell nodded and took from his chest a small kitchen knife that was somewhat rusty but had enough sharpness to cut someone.

Anders Albert the little knife just shook his head as a smile formed on his face “You don’t need to care what the weapon looks like as long as it works and you are comfortable with it, you are free to use it and child no one tells you otherwise.”

After saying those words, Anders took from his chest a leather strap that had a small leather bag, a kind of herb biscuit, which he placed in his mouth, and after taking a few bites he swallowed the contents.

Closing his eyes completely ignoring everything that surrounded him Anders for the first time in a few weeks would feel his berserker state again, although it did not bother him at times he was afraid to go into a trance because at that moment who could see all the people for a few seconds what had taken a life.

For him, it was a completely horrible feeling because not only did he have to see each of the faces but they all simply looked at him without saying a word, and although it only lasted a few seconds.

It was enough to make him wonder about the existence of Valhalla since most of the people he had killed had said that they were going to go to Valhalla once they died, but during those seconds he was sure that perhaps there was nothing else after the death.

That made Anders quite uncomfortable, who all his life had fought for a position in that mythical and fabulous resting place after death.

After some time, he could feel how his blood flow began to increase and his heartbeat became stronger and stronger. So when he opened his eyes that were completely red, he can see the faces of all the people he had murdered.

All of them were as is after death including the gentleman who had stolen the coins and clothes, but just like always none of them said a single word to him they just stood there staring at him and Anders also stared at them.

But unlike them, he was looking through their ghostly bodies because he realized that the two Viking ships were about to collide the ship, so he took a deep breath, Jesus, having his two axes, prepared for the festival of blood that he was going to do.

When the two Viking ships crashed into the side of the ship, this trembled, and fortunately due to the wood with which it was built it managed to resist the strong blow.

But that does not mean that the women who are prepared for battle have not lost their balance, which was immediately taken advantage of by the Vikings who when they got on they started a battle to the death with all of them.

The Viking leader who was already prepared to enjoy the corpses of those women and the boots they might have was surprised when he heard a scream in the distance and turning his head he could see something there that gave him quite a bit of terror.

A man dressed as a Christian nobleman was using two axes to annihilate his best warriors without even caring about the injuries they were inflicting on him.

The Viking leader then realized that that man, although he seemed Christian, was not. It must be something else, something that gave him deep fear.

After seeing that man for a moment he was sure of him as a berserker so what was supposed to be an easy robbery would end up being a life and death battle.

“Quick someone draws two bows and shoot that damn warrior who is killing us with his two axes, if he is allowed to continue attacking, he will kill us all and we will not even be able to defend ourselves!”

Two of the Vikings who were close to their leader quickly prepared to take their bows and attack, but it was then that one of them simply fell into the sea completely dead as Anders had thrown an ax at him.

When the Viking saw how he fell dead, his companion took the bow and prepared to shoot.

But at that moment he felt a strong pain in his chest and when he lowered his head, he could see a buried ax so he took two steps back and felt like all the force of his life escaped, therefore, he fell to his knees and ended up dead in that position.

Anders who was smiling began to laugh and taking one of the weapons of some Viking that he had killed continued with his true massacre in that place. Soon after and with the help of the women, the situation began to tilt towards them.

Therefore, after a prolonged confrontation and after suffering several injuries, Anders beheaded the Viking leader, who tried to confront him but in vain because cutting off both of his hands was easy prey for the berserker.

Having ended the fight in that way, Anders took the head of the Viking leader and raised it above his head while shouting with pride because the confrontation was over.

All the women felt cold on their backs because they never thought that they had been with a truly mad person from the battle, perhaps the only person who was not afraid was Russell.

He looked at Anders as a true hero and promised himself that he too needed to take the head of those who murdered and raped his mother under the pretext of trying to get the silver coin that he had.
