Chapter 44: A Comrades Resolve.
"What do you hope to accomplish with one bow! They’re are several archers behind us, what’s one little bow going to amount to?!" Lang Shen suddenly asked, his eyes slightly red.
"Shut up and keep riding!" Lin Mu said with clenched teeth not bothering to elaborate further. "Everyone should try as much as they can to increase the gap between us and them. I’ll try my best to slow them down." he said as he gently pulled back on Autumn Winds reigns, prompting her to slow down her pace until he was at the rear of the group.
Brother Wangs eyes widened in surprise "Brother Lin, don’t do this, it’s completely insane!"
" Just get back to the front now before you’re going to get yourself killed!"
Zhang Teihu also nodded his head in approval. "Brother Wang is right Junior brother Lin, Do you even know how to use a bow properly!"
" Listen to Brother Zhang Junior brother Lin! This isn’t the time to show off!" Another screamed, it was obvious non of them where willing to let his risk his life like that just for their own benefit. To them, Lin Mu had already proven his worth, he was no different than any member of the hunting party, a real comrade they wouldn’t mind saving when in peril, so it was within reason that the lot of them would be against such a suicidal attempt.
"Tsk...i hate to admit it but their right outsider! You better stay in formation before those Jebaki b@stards will rip you apart when you lag behind!" to everyone’s surprise, even Lang Shen was pitching in.
Hearing all their words of concern, Lin Mu was a bit touched, never once did he expect anyone to treat him with such favouritism. But when he remembered just what type of situation they were in, he couldn’t help but steel his resolve, his heart beating firm while his veins seemingly became full of steel.
