Chapter 359 Defiance?



The Vikings were led to the castle peacefully, Skarde was impressed by how Tyr handled a potentially hostile situation with such a pose. 

He was fast becoming a fine warrior and Bjorn was following in his footsteps. 

Gudleif might become a problem, Bjorn was noticing a different side to him but this was something that Viggo had picked up on the moment he met Gudleif. 

It was not just a fluke but Viggo saw through him. 

Viggo was growing more terrified of Tyr the longer he spent with him, Tyr oozed something dark that he could not shake off and the way he convinced Uttredus, a man willing to give his life to protect the secrets of the castle.

Ivan, on the other hand, was ecstatic about this. He could not believe that Tyr was this amazing in person. 

The way he moved, he was so fast despite his size and the dexterity of the axes he wielded was unmatched. 

Ivan wanted to see him fight but these monks could not put up a fight. 

The expedition was underway and it might be done a lot sooner than they anticipated as luckily for them, these men were willing to cooperate.

They were in but something was off, the place was deserted and Tyr noticed Uttredus\'s body language change. It was relaxed, he should not be relaxed meaning that something was going on that Tyr did not put into consideration.

Uttredus stopped in his tracks, Bjorn looked confused as to why as they found themselves in front of a strange building.

"Move…" Bjorn commanded but Uttredus stood still and this confirmed Tyr\'s suspicion. 

Uttredus tried to reach for Bjorn\'s sword strapped to his waist but all he got in that attempt was a broken nose as Bjorn had smashed his elbow right into it. 

"I see… So that is what you have chosen," Tyr blurted out coldly, Thorgard was in awe because Tyr had such a presence. It almost felt like he was the one leading this expedition. 

Bjorn was uneasy by his brother\'s tone and knew he needed to say something or risk it escalating.

"Take it easy, Tyr…" Bjorn muttered; he was different from the wedding but this was simply because Tyr was slowly becoming who he was before his life at Kattegat began. 

"Easy?" Tyr questioned right before burying his axe in one of the monk\'s heads. Gudleif\'s face lit up the moment Tyr did this. 

"Tyr!" Bjorn called out but Tyr was surprised why his brother was growing so sentimental for people he did not even know. 

"Yes, brother?" Tyr responded. Bjorn knew this might be the case but these men all looked so harmless. 

They were not a threat and killing them just might be unnecessary when you look at things this way.

"Thorgard, find the monks that are hiding, I am certain they did not leave this place…" Tyr instructed Thorgard. Thorgard sighed because he partly hated being commanded but he listened nonetheless.

"What should I do when I find them?" Thorgard asked but Tyr remained silent for a minute before saying.

"I will leave that up to you…" Tyr said; this was interesting considering he had a big speech about Gudleif not being in charge yet this was exactly what he was doing. 

"Or does anyone object?" Tyr asked, he knew he just needed Gudleif on his side as the majority rule stood.

Gudleif shook his head before saying. 

"None so far…" Gudleif said with Bjorn biting his tongue, he could not show compassion as he was aware that most people present here agreed with what Tyr was doing. He did give Uttredus a choice and Uttredus made his decision.

The monks cowered but Tyr was interested in the pendant around the neck of the corpse. 

He ripped it off the corpse and observed the man on the cross.

"Why is he like this?" Tyr asked and Uttredus saw this as an opportunity to buy time. 

Magnus was scared shitless, he did not know that killing would be involved or rather, assumed they would not be killing innocent people that were not even putting up a fight but he dare not speak because no one recognized his authority over there. Here, he was just a warrior.

"He was crucified so we may live. He died for our sins," Uttredus blurted out and Tyr chuckled the moment he heard this. 

"So your God is dead?" Tyr questioned.

"How dare you…! He still lives! He rose from the dead and with His rebirth came our salvation!" Uttredus blurted out. Bjorn was surprised that Tyr was showing particular interest in another religion. 

There was no point in trying to understand them.

"I see… Tell me, who put him on this cross?" Tyr asked, rubbing the blood of the necklace as his eyes settled on the cowering monks. 

"Pagan\'s di-!" Before he could complete his sentence, Tyr burst out laughing. 

"Something is wrong with Tyr…" Bjorn thought to himself, the change between the wedding and now was far too drastic. Something must have happened a few days before the expedition. 

"I have an idea…" Tyr said as he removed his gaze from the monks, they felt a sigh of relief but something told them that things were just beginning. 

Bjorn grabbed Tyr by the hand and yanked him away to talk to him. Surprisingly, Tyr did not resist his older brother.

"Tyr! What the fuck has gotten into you?" Bjorn questioned his brother away from prying eyes. 

"I am fulfilling the task at hand…" Tyr said but Bjorn was not having any of it. 

"You are killing innocent people!" Bjorn shouted; he thought that Tyr of all people would be tired of the needless bloodshed but the moment he said this, he felt Tyr\'s hand on his shoulder. 

"Bjorn Ironside. I am not talking to you as your brother but as an equal. What do you think will happen if we leave them alive?" Tyr asked this question. 

"They can give us what we want! You just said this!" Bjorn said but Tyr shook his head. 

"Uttredus is giving them strength… I can see it in their eyes, he is the only reason they have not pissed their pants yet but I need you to trust me, Bjorn. I know exactly what I\'m doing…" Tyr said coldly. 

Bjorn knew there was no point, Tyr was not the kind of person to change his mind.

"I trust you…" Bjorn caved in.

"You fucking traitor..." Tyr thought to himself.
