Chapter 268: [BONUS] The End Of The Deal

Sharina quickly pulled out her knife hidden in her boots. The pointy end of the blade struck her throat just in time for Zukulum to strike Sharina’s hand with her staff, which prompted the latter to let go of her blade, saving her life for a new hollow day.

“Leave me alone, Zukulum,” Sharina said it as a command, but it came out as a plea.

“Killing yourself is not the answer, Sharina.”

“I have nothing more to live.”

“Yes, you do . . . the clan needs you. Now . . . more than ever.”

“. . .” Sharina’s lifeless eyes shot to the Orcs that were staring at her with looks of pleading, expressions full of hopeless grief.

A pulse of pain numbed everything around Sharina, and her heart went colder than ice, leaving her unable to feel anything. It might be a good thing. It would help in the days to come.

Through shallow breaths and sweating brows, Sharina struggled forward, the numbness in her limbs begging her to stumble, and the only thing that pressed her to move forward and face a future without her kids was her clan members.

And it was that time that they had defeated the Night Thing that Ragnar emerged from the dead. Since they had completed the quest, he could now revive in town.

“Thank you all for your help,” Sharina said to Ren and the others without an ounce of energy left. If she weren’t breathing, the others wouldn’t know that she was alive.

With the death of her son and daughter, she seemed like a walking corpse, and the once proud Orc would never be the same again.

“I’m sorry that I couldn’t give you the reward you so deserve . . . we are . . . currently facing so many problems at this time. But you’re free to visit our clan anytime in the future.”
