The Legendary Man

Chapter 1159 A Crimson Bird

Even Karl was slightly creeped out by Leslie's present condition.

Although they were all aware of the latter's existence, none of them had had any contact with her in real life other than Hades.

Right then, he finally understood why Jonathan had been reluctant to utilize such a talented commander as her.

It was because she was not a complete person in such a situation.

When she saw him earlier, she still possessed a human's innate reaction, feeling nauseous upon laying eyes on his severed arm and the bloodstains all over him.

At that very moment, however, she was numb to it all. That aside, she exhibited no fear toward him, a God Realm warrior.

In other words, she no longer had any reverence for human life then.

A single death was a tragedy, but a million deaths were a statistic.

A person's fear of death and everything else came from the reverence for life.

Undeniably, some murderers might be lost in the sense of thrill brought by the anxiety of taking lives after killing a person or two.

However, if they were given free rein to kill hundreds and thousands of people, they would be horror-stricken and averse by the end of the killing spree.

That was not a theory but Karl's personal experience.

When Doveston was still in chaos, he led the Eastern Army to the states in the region to quell the rebellion.

Upon encountering heinous military armed forces, he once slaughtered them all.

By the end of it, every single swing of his sword carried a tremor from the depths of his soul.

Detesting the killing that he wrought, he even felt that he was the source of all filth in the end.

For a long time after that, he plunged into acute self-doubt.

Hence, the woman standing before him at that moment terrified him greatly.

In her current state of mind, she might not have the slightest reverence for life.

For instance, she advocated Shusonna Army's infiltration of the enemy's rear battle line a moment ago.

It would definitely be effective, but judging from Remdik's formation, the chances of the auxiliary team from the Shusonna Army making it out alive were slim.

All that was left in her eyes was victory.

She was a veritable war machine.

Besides Karl, Wilbur had likewise perceived Leslie's abnormal state.

But unlike the former, he did not regard her with fear and shock but elation.

Despite having Yaleview Army firmly in his command, he had been lamenting the lack of capable subordinates.

That went doubly for gifted commanders, and he had been searching for such talented people.

It so happened that Leslie fulfilled his criteria.
