Chapter 130 Tulio's Way
Chapter 130 Tulio's Way
The tension between the two began to flow. Ye Kai had been maintaining a natural posture, but Siegel's eyes flashed with the flames of fighting. His true intentions were seen through and exposed, which hurt his self-esteem.
"I don't mind. I have healing magic."
Siegel gasped through exposed teeth and launched an attack.
Ye Kai looked at the knife stretched out in his left hand with vigilance, but the tip of the knife was held between the index and middle fingers of his left hand. Even if he pulled it back quickly and used another knife to increase the force, it was still held.
Every time the tip of the knife was clamped, there was a sound of metal friction. This sound continued to ring, and all attacks were blocked.
Akiu was stunned by his amazing skills.
Sigurd was not a useless hunter. On the contrary, he was considered a brave hunter with good judgment. But his attacks could not reach their targets. It was almost like playing with a child. The scene made Akiul unable to believe his eyes.
"That Siegel..."
No matter how hard the knife stabbed in, no matter what feint was made, it was perfectly defended. Several times the knife held was not withdrawn, and another knife was stabbed, but it was dodged by just making the opponent's body shake slightly.
"You think this lax stab can achieve that!"
After being severely criticized by Cham, Siegel seemed to reflect on himself and his stabbing became sharper, but it was still useless. Siegel's full-strength attack was also blocked by Ye Kai's two fingers.
"Watch this carefully, Akiuru. That's what it looks like to be someone who wants to protect everything that's important, using force as a means."
"Is this the path Ye Kai is talking about?"
"Yes. And I think you also hope that Akiu will choose the same path, for Pierce."
"Although Siegel said no, can Akiul?"
"I can't guarantee that. I don't know how much self-awareness is needed. But if I just protect my sister until she grows up, it shouldn't be too difficult, right?"
Chaim saw a kind of determination in his eyes. Now all he had to do was calm the impulse in Akiul's heart. Siegel, who was panting unevenly, had already fallen to the ground. His confidence and self-esteem were completely destroyed.
"Siegel isn't that powerful... What should I do?"
"No need to suppress, just be there to accompany and share the troubles, isn't it?"
"Together?"
“Yes. I think you should grow up with Akiuur as well.”
“Is it that simple…?”
Chaim approached, lifted his arm, and whispered: "Even if you feel like you are an adult, you are still just a child."
Ye Kai watched all this with a smile.
(Ye Kai, who did you lose?) she thought to herself.

Tulio and Fino welcomed Akiul and his party who had returned with Pierce. Seeing that Tulio seemed somewhat calm, Cham said softly to Fino, "Thank you for your hard work."
“Can you talk to me?”
“Okay. What’s wrong?”
After lunch, Tulio asked Akiu a question.
"We have some business to run. Where's Fino?"
"Ah, Fino wants to go too." After observing Tulio's mood, she nodded in response and decided to go out with him.
"I have a brother. In fact, he was almost wrongly convicted not long ago." After the two were alone, Tulio began to tell the story slowly.
“What does it mean to be wronged?”
"Ah, it means being accused of a crime that is innocent."
“That’s bad enough.”
"Yes. So I managed to prove my brother's innocence, but the criminal was a real annoying guy, accusing us with some silly speculations."
"There are such stupid people among humans. I always thought that the people of Akiul were very smart."
"It's a complicated world. Then, I just couldn't forgive that guy, so we fought."
"He wants to harm our family, right? Of course."
“Yes, I cut off his hand so that he could no longer hold the sword.”
“It’s quite refreshing.”
"You think so? But then I felt like I did something really stupid. It's not refreshing to do something like that when you're angry. There's no sense of relief or accomplishment. It's just emptiness."
Tulio himself was unaware that he had grown greatly spiritually during that incident. Since the object of his rage seemed so insignificant, he misunderstood that he was ultimately confronting a minor figure. Although he succeeded in defeating a warrior he admired, he felt that his swordsmanship had improved.
"But Tulio's brother is still alive?"
The crux of the problem lies here.
"Father, mother, and Muruk were all killed by monsters. It's inevitable that we will be counterattacked when we go hunting, but if we talk about the relationship between hunting and being hunted, it's strange that Akiul is not a good hunter."
"Hunting monsters is your life. I'm not asking you to stop, but is it wrong to do it with hatred alone?"
"Brother Tulio, no matter how you whitewash your appearance, if your purpose is to take the other person's life, Akiuer should not think this is justified, right?"
This is a valid point. Tullio is puzzled by this questioning.
No matter how hard he struggled, his focus would be there. Even though death was so close to the beastmen, the boy did not understand the meaning of death.
It is obviously impossible to ask them to understand the philosophy that goes so far as to explore the meaning of death. On the contrary, even adults may only be able to understand it in general rather than to explain it correctly.
Of course, omnivorous humans require protein as an essential nutrient, and their lives are based on the death of other organisms.
Comparing a life taken by necessity with a life taken by emotion may be considered objectively inappropriate. So why do humans only develop an aversion to a life taken by emotion? This is a product of education.
This is just a warning to prevent the collapse of social life. To eliminate this difference in concept, sufficient education and training are needed. Tulio felt that it would be very difficult to teach this to the orc boy who lived a simple life.
"So, Akiul, which do you think is more important, the lives of your companions in this Kalapalu Township or the lives of the monsters?"
Tulio changed the subject slightly, trying to ask questions. Asking about the importance of life could be a dangerous angle, but he realized that to convince the other party, he also needed to explore this issue in depth.
"For Akiuer, of course, the people in the village are more important."
"Yeah? So..."
"But from the perspective of Warcraft, aren't Akiuer and his men natural enemies? Well, it's a competition for survival, right?"
Tullio's plans for conversation were interrupted by an unexpected word, one that didn't even come from his own mouth.
