Chapter 159 - [159] Sheep and lion

BOOM!The entire city wall trembled upon impact at the first volley of cannon fires, dust flew, bricks where shed, and men, all on their butts."Where is the fk is the magic barrier?" Drake cursed, as he attempted to stand up."It's down for some reason!" Thomas answered."No shit Sherlock!" Drake yelled back."Boys, we have to move and defend the gate! The enemy is coming!" Bruam spoke with a heavy Scottish accent. "Thank you for the info captain obvious." Drake said with a sneer. "Why am I even fighting for this guild anyways? The enemy is just going to win, and we're all just going to get killed. Not to mention the non-existent pay and using us pretty much as free labour...""Drake you're going to far..." Thomas looked back between Drake and Bruam worriedly."You're right boy." Bruam said, as he straightened to his full height. "This guild hasn't treated any of you fairly." "Any of you who wish to leave, now is your last chance." as soon as the words left Bruam's mouth, Drake, and several men all around froze."Sure, it's just a game, no need to take it too serious. But..." Bruam inhaled a deep breath. "When you leave where would you go? Legionnaire does not accept deserters, nor any other decent guilds. Perhaps you heard the saying, better to be a lion for a day, then a sheep for your whole life.""Yes, we most likely will die, and still lose. But even if we die, even if we lose, WE WILL NOT GO DOWN AS SHEEP, BUT GO ON AS LIONS!!!"Silence.Drake looked at his shoes for a moment, then turned and began to walk towards the stairways."Drake!..." Thomas called after him."Don't get the wrong idea." Drake stopped in his tracks and turned to Thomas. "This whole guild is filled with retards, benefit system sucks, worse guild ever.""But I am not going to be a sheep." Drake narrowed his eyes. "I will defend the gate.""DRAKE!" Thomas's face lit up."HAHAHAHAHHAHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" Bruam let out a boisterous laugh with both hands on his hips. "Good spirit! Now let's greet our guest at the door shall we?"Q: Would you rather live as a sheep or die like a lion?
