Every word that Grace Floss said was like a sharp blade, carving into Emilia's heart.
It was Emilia's first time killing someone, and despite the victim being an enemy, there was still an overwhelming sense of fear she couldn't resist!
"Huff huff huff... huff huff..."
Emilia gasped for air, her eyes turning dull as she watched Lin Hai's corpse, his heart shredded by the Rainbow Sword.
Why did she feel pain for an enemy?
How could she be so weak?
These people, they killed Aiden!
She...
How could she...
Actually, this is a normal reaction. Even many new soldiers, on their first day on the battlefield, would be doing well just to pull the trigger, let alone facing the inhumanity of various corpses without turning into fools.
Therefore, this isn't about being spineless; it's about the innate goodness of humanity, and the unwillingness to kill one's own kind, a taboo ingrained deep in human bones!
