Not pain or anger, Tom's every swing of the sword was accompanied by helpless sadness.
There is nothing more bleak than waving a sword at yesterday's comrades, even if he knows that the other party is dead, and the hatred that the other party has for himself is basically from the instinct of the undead creature, Tom still can't suppress his self-blame.
In fact, "the comrades who were still fighting side by side yesterday have died in battle today", Tom has experienced this kind of thing. However, under the premise that "the war is over, and Yiqiē is just the end", such a thing has happened, which is extremely unacceptable.
But if it's hard to accept, you have to accept it, and the only thing that can be done now is to kill them here so that their souls can rest in peace.
Luckily, Miss Pastor had roughly noted the location of most of their team when she was looking for Tom. Undead creatures, on the other hand, do not have any autonomous consciousness after losing control, and usually wander in a fixed area. Therefore, it is not very difficult to find Tom's former comrades.
Before I knew it, two days had passed, and after cleaning out an unknown number of undead creatures, Tom finally overtook his former comrades with the help of Miss Priest, and brought back their badges and identity manuals.
The flames of the Light will cleanse them of the last trace of evil, and the corpses of their comrades will be put to eternal rest. Although there is no time to bury them, after the purification ritual, they will never be awakened again by the necromancer as evil undead creatures. Such a thing could not be considered at least the worst ending for the warriors of the Silver Watch, who once fought valiantly.
Therefore, Tom is full of admiration and gratitude for Miss Pastor.
Miss Mushi not only saved her own life, but also was willing to unconditionally help herself, a stranger, to do such a dangerous thing, which is really a rare good person. Truth be told, if it weren't for the willingness of the other side to help him, Tom wasn't even sure if he would have mustered up the courage to kill him again - because that would basically mean death, the war was over, and Tom didn't want to die for that reason.
But unlike the powerless self, the traveler is powerful.
Miss Reverend's healing abilities were truly warm and reassuring, and her healing was more comfortable than any healer Tom had ever seen. Every right shield or healing spell would allow him to minimize pain and restore energy. Unlike the coldness she showed on her face, Tom could feel that the other party was seriously concerned about him after the past two days. Even if she is just a stranger, she can be gentle and considerate.
But Miss Pastor has more than just a gentle side. When dealing with her enemies, the flames of the Holy Light she manipulated were powerful and precise, and the energy contained in them made Tom feel a little oppressive. Throughout the battle, Tom's responsibility is nothing more than finding a way to wrestle with the enemy, both in terms of damage and healing, almost always with Miss Priest's strength.
In fact, I am being taken care of by her.
"Being able to fight with a priest girl traveler with the same strength and beauty" is so bizarre and dreamy that it is definitely an amazing experience to show off to others. But Tom wasn't in the mood for that at all.

For Kolotia, it was just an ordinary mission. Although his remorse and sadness could be seen in the eyes of the locals named Tom, Kolotia did not bother to comfort him. Unlike Lisa, Tom is just a normal person who has nothing to do with him to Kolotia, and other than that, he is a good real person at best.
The third step of this series of missions has been completed. Because there is a lot of combat content, the experience points given are far more than the first two steps combined.
Now Kolotia's experience points are level 30 and nearly 60%, and this is only the result of three days. You know, before there was no such task system, unless it was a player who could go to a small dungeon to level up, simply organizing a monster fight every day, I'm afraid it wouldn't necessarily be able to achieve this harvest in a week.
With this quest system, the speed of leveling up is bound to be much faster.
Tom was unaware of these things, and Kolotia found herself to be a noble and great figure to the native, who asked for nothing and was willing to help. This kind of thing even made Kolotia a little embarrassed - especially when "the soul mark was always in effect, and Kolotia could feel the other person's true feelings at any time".
Fortunately, all of Tom's comrades have now been sent to eternal sleep. This quest line should be over. Now all you need to do is take a break from the old stronghold, and then you can return to the camp of the Silver Watch. And Kolotia's own little real yàn can be regarded as a successful completion, and the situation of the test has basically been tried.
In Tom's case, the message of the "heart imprint" is more emotional, and then it can be felt when he occasionally has strong thoughts. This has been especially evident in the last day, and Kolotia has even been able to detect what he is going to do next, and then make her own predictions to match him - but it may also be because she has naturally become familiar with the other party's routine after fighting together for a long time. In short, the "Psychic Imprint" cast by Kolotia is still only "a vague feeling" rather than a "concrete thought".
Kolotia guessed that for strangers, the most she could do was "when facing a businessman, you can feel that the other party wants to pit money but can't guess how the other party intends to do it, and when facing a warrior, you can feel that the other party wants to cut people but can't guess how the other party wants to cut it".
"Mind reading" is still far away for Kolotia.
Then there is the "hint", which also has considerable limitations. While it is true that it can silently influence the judgment of the other party, "influence" is not "change". When the other person is hesitant, "hinting" will naturally work well, but it is quite difficult to use "hinting" to make the other person do something completely impossible.
Kolotia tried to get Tom to take off his shirt and curl up with his hands and "meow" at herself, but Tom just raised his hand and was stunned for two or three seconds before finally coming to his senses and walking away with a face full of shame.
Quite subtle.
