Chapter 59: Come and Eat Something

Lugh spoke calmly. He even covered Clare’s eyes.
“Don’t look at them you’re still young.”
Rexton and the others were speechless.
Wasn’t the difference in treatment too great?
They didn’t want to look at it either, nor did they want to get used to it.
The three of them complained helplessly in their hearts.
But they also knew that what Night said was right.
They had to get used to this kind of thing as soon as possible. They couldn’t just vomit at the sight of these dead bodies. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be of any use other than dragging Night down with them.
Most importantly, they might not even be able to protect Clare. That couldn’t be forgiven.
So they summoned up their courage and decided to give it a try.
Well, the result was still the same. They vomited again. But this time, it was much faster than the first time.
After trying again and again, they could finally face the mutilated corpses.
They were no longer as panicked about the b.l.o.o.d.y scene.
However, Lugh’s actions had made them completely doubt their lives. The shadow in their hearts had not yet pa.s.sed, but Lugh had started preparing food again. “Today, let’s eat steak. This is good stuff.”
“Please, don’t!”
“I can’t eat anything now. Don’t spoil the good stuff!”
“Oh my G.o.d, you’ve gone too far.”
Although they were hungry, they couldn’t eat anything in their current state.
They didn’t have any appet.i.te at all.
But after a moment, they smelled the tempting aroma of meat.
Rexton and the others had confused looks on their faces as they clenched their fists. This was simply too cruel.
They felt like they were eating, but as soon as they stopped, they would think of the scene of bodies scattered all over the ground. They would instantly feel nauseous. Although they would not vomit, the nauseating feeling still lingered.
Now, Lugh and Clare were eating the grilled steak directly in front of them.
For a foodie like Lorca, it was undoubtedly a form of torture especially when he saw Clare eating so well. He looked at Lugh with a face full of resentment. “Lugh, please be human. I really can’t stand it anymore…”
“You can.”
Lugh raised his eyebrows. “If I don’t eat, I won’t have the strength to hurry on my way, and I won’t have the strength to kill the enemy. How can I trust you guys with Clare? It’s a process of adaptation. I’ll give you guys one day. We won’t leave today. We’ll just stay here. There’s no rush. We’ll wait for you guys to get used to it.”
There were two reasons why he stayed there.
First, it was to let Rexton and the others get used to the b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacre.
Second, it was to kill as many people as possible after this a.s.sa.s.sination.
Kill as many people as possible.
He would kill until the queen didn’t dare to send anyone else.
If he didn’t kill more people, it would be very difficult to completely eliminate the hostility in his heart.
After the experiences in the Simon Empire these past few days, he had been suppressing a monstrous rage in his heart.
It would be best if all the pursuers came to the ruins of G.o.d.
It would be easier to settle this once and for all.
At first, Lugh still had some scruples.
But after hearing what Vivienne had said, that the nine great empires all had conflicts with each other, he had no scruples.
In any case, as long as he toppled the Xi Zhao Empire, no matter what he did, the people of the Simon Empire couldn’t do anything to him.
Then what was there to be afraid of?
Just do it.
How would the people of the Simon Empire dare to put their hands on the Xi Zhao Empire?
Even if the royal family had the guts, they would not dare to offend the Xi Zhao Empire.
As for Lugh, he hoped to have a few more decent opponents.
He did not bother to think of the Lion Horse Guards. He even felt like dozing off.
But he had to wait.
After the battle had ended, he had used his fate rune.
He had seen the yellow mist above his head. This was good luck.
It meant that there wasn’t any danger here for the time being. At the very least, no one would appear for the next few hours. He knew that this place was very safe now.
That was why he had spoken to Rexton and the others, allowing them to look at the corpses here and stimulate their nerves. It was all to intentionally put pressure on them.
A person would only truly grow into a powerful warrior after experiencing life and death and seeing fresh blood.
After experiencing these things, Lugh had truly treated them as friends. However, if they were afraid of a corpse, then it was simply impossible for the three of them to partic.i.p.ate in the rune school’s a.s.sessment.
The rune school didn’t want cowardly people.
Moreover, there wasn’t much time left for the a.s.sessment. He had to use this method to make them change their mindset as soon as possible.
What if they pa.s.sed the a.s.sessment?
If that was the case, he would have an acquaintance there.
However, these things couldn’t be said explicitly, because they might not have any effect.
A person’s potential was often forced out under extreme circ.u.mstances.
“Lugh, I was wrong about you.”
“You’re a very bad person.”
In the end, Lorca couldn’t resist it.
For a foodie, delicacies were absolutely not to be left alone.
In this world, there were only two things that could not be left alone, and that was good food and beautiful women.
Lorca sat next to Lugh in a carefree manner. He picked up a piece of fragrant, roasted steak and took a bite.
His eyes instantly widened. He had never eaten such a delicious steak before.
The fresh and fragrant juice filled his mouth. It was cooked perfectly. It was chewy and tender. There was also a kind of sweetness.
Lugh looked at the shocked Lorca and chuckled, “Delicious, right?”
This steak had been cooked using his unique method, and he even added a bit of natural honey.
“Delicious, Delicious.”
Lorca did not even raise his head. He answered vaguely and quickly chewed the steak in his hand.
This was too delicious.
It was really fragrant.
