[Would you like to Resurrect?]

[Yes / No]

Selecting [Yes] was an obvious result.

Not long after, I could feel my spirit body being sucked into my physical body as if I was traveling at warp speed. The gray surrounding stretched into lines and then in a moment of darkness I found myself staring up at the foliage above me.

As I enjoyed the serenity of the beams of light streaking through the breaks in the trees I couldn't help but wonder how long the developers had worked on the death state.

It was certainly well done after all.

It was… quite the experience, really.

After I finished contemplating the death state I rolled to my side and sat on my knees.

Selene was relaxing against a tree while nonchalantly munching on some of the bear jerky we had made the day before; she certainly took things in stride.

Standing up and brushing my knees off, I looked around to find all the bodies were still with weapon and armor… I kind of expected Selene to gather them, oh well.

I walked through the group of bodies to gather everything I could, they didn't have much money on them but I at least had a few hand axes and spears I could sell. I stripped all of their bodies of the fur clothing they were wearing; though some of it was blood stained I could still boil the fur off and re-use the leather hide underneath.

While collecting the items I had been conversing with Selene, "So, the town has seven warriors left plus the Earl."

"And yet you still intend to launch an attack, after being reduced to a mauled corpse."

Cough.

"Ahem, it was all a part of the plan to ensure your safety."

"Mm. Appreciated."

"Anyhow… I'm thinking we wait until night fall in three hours and then attack."

"Do you think you can actually win?"

I hesitated for a moment to think about our prospects, and decided it was completely up to chance. "Not sure, the Earl's Champion is quite strong and I'm not sure I could beat him in a one versus one situation."

Selene didn't seem to share my enthusiasm or my confidence. With a dejected tone she curtly replied, "But you intend to beat him in a one versus seven situation."

"Yup!"

It had to be done, so it would be done. That was my reasoning so far as being outnumbered was concerned. Of course, Selene still was having none of it as she shook her head from side to side in disagreement.

"Sigh why didn't you bring Kate… she could have helped a lot."

"I didn't know the situation, didn't want to risk it."

"Sigh but you want us to launch a surprise attack at sunset in the middle of the town with no way of knowing if the towns people will aide or hinder us… this could get out of hand quickly."

"Ah don't worry about it ey? I've got a plan of attack!"

"And…?"

"The wisest words ever spoken right here, 'Attack!'"

I was laughing at the corny reference but Selene simply shook her head in disagreement.

At least she didn't make a fuss, she was rather grounded and level-headed and I could appreciate that.
