Bjorn had arrived at the camp and naturally, he was perceived as a threat but the men there knew he was not some common warrior by the number of horses that came their way.
"Stand down warriors!" A voice rang out and out came Sighvatur, he looked elated the moment his eyes saw Bjorn,
"Do you not know who that is? That is Bjorn Ironside!" Sighvatur knew exactly who Bjorn was but Bjorn had no idea who he was; he knew he was the one that led them.
He looked over at Nora and he could see the rage in her eyes.
"Is that him?" This was all Bjorn asked, ignoring Sighvatur in the process. Nora nodded to give him confirmation and Bjorn's attention returned to him.
Sighvatur found that he was arrogant but he had every reason to be considering who his father was so it was understandable.
"Hey, our Chieftain is talk-!" Before the Viking on Sighvatur's side could talk, a dagger was buried in his forehead, killing him instantly.
"Shut the fuck up! You are talking to a King's son, what the fuck is a Chieftain?" Viggo barked, retracting the hand that had thrown this dagger soon after.
Sighvatur knew he had to make an example out of them but unlike Tyr, Bjorn was still very much on good terms with Ragnar so an attack on him was an attack on Ragnar.
Bjorn unmounted his horse, he was far more imposing than his younger brother because his body took up more space.
"Where is Tyr Ragnarsson?" Bjorn did not pretend to want a conversation with him.
The battle with Tyr, up to an hour had passed since the whole fight.
"Tyr Ragnarsson is our prisoner, I am afraid I cannot release him to you," Sighvatur said and Bjorn raised an eyebrow in confusion because he did not understand what he meant by this.
"I will not ask a second time," Bjorn was uninterested in the conversation because if he needed to, he was willing to use force.
"You do not need to ask again, I have no intention of letting him go," Sighvatur responded and without doing anything, Bjorn took a few steps back.
"What is this feeling?" Bjorn thought to himself as even the horses were restless.
Sighvatur had directed his blood lust on Bjorn but Bjorn took a deep breath to relax himself as he knew it was all in his mind.
"Very well then," Bjorn said as he unsheathed his sword.
"Commander! You do not need to stain your blade with the likes of him! Let me have a go!" It was none other than Viggo that spoke.
"You will die if you fight this man, Viggo," Bjorn said bluntly, he had no intention of sugarcoating it but Viggo was fine with it because it has been forever since he has seen Bjorn fight seriously.
"Do we really need to do this?" Sighvatur asked with a sigh.
"You are strong, and I know my strength might not be enough but I am going to see Tyr and kill him with my own hands," Bjorn said. The moment he said this, Gudrun and Nora were livid because what the hell was he talking about? They thought he wanted to save his brother only to hear he wanted to kill him.
"Yo-!" Before Nora could speak, she felt a sword pushed gently against her back, it was Viggo's blade.
"Shut the fuck up or I will pierce your heart," Viggo threatened and Gudrun knew if she made a move, Ivan would cut her down.
"You want to kill him?" Sighvatur asked, he could tell just by looking him in the eyes that Bjorn meant every word.
Bjorn nodded, Sighvatur entertained the thought that this might be a trick, he was no fool when it came to deception but if it was Bjorn that killed him, there would be no repercussions.
Sighvatur found it strange that he came all the way here just for that considering that Askild had ordered for him.
"That is strange…." Sighvatur thought something was off, it was not adding up.
If Bjorn killed Tyr then Askild would have no reason to hold up his end of their undisclosed bargain.
"I am sorry but I cannot let you do that…" Sighvatur said.
"Why?" Bjorn asked, he wanted to exhaust his diplomatic options first.
"Askild has asked for him, which is why I find it strange that you have come here," Sighvatur said and Bjorn's eyes shot open.
"That damn Scar!" Bjorn thought but if Askild knew then why was he here in the first place?
"Hahaha! It makes sense!" Sighvatur shouted but there was nothing funny about the current situation as he turned around to equip a sword on the floor behind him.
"It all makes sense now, I am sorry Bjorn but I will have to kill you," Sighvatur said and Bjorn was ready to fight him.
"If that is how it is going to be," Bjorn responded; sword in hand.
"It is too early to fight Bjorn, how about I see just how long you will last against mine…" Sighvatur had the advantage in numbers and he wanted to flex it.
With a downward motion of his hand, his men charged forward to kill Bjorn and his men.
Sighvatur retreated into the tent where he kept Tyr and Kolbeinn because he knew that Tyr was an asset that he could not lose.
He was a powerful bargaining chip but what was the deal he had with Askild that was so important? Sighvatur was far too calm but he had the numbers to be cocky.
Bjorn had fought enemies but he had never fought anyone as smart as Sitghvatur.
-
Bjorn was surprised by their strength despite none being able to touch him but they were targeting their horses forcing the riders onto the floor and some were even killed by their horses.
The horses trashed and smashed their skulls and one on the floor, they were easy pickings.
This forced them to unmount their horses and fight on the floor, clashing their blades.
Bjorn began walking towards the tent he saw Sighvatur walk into and he casually sheathed his blade in the process despite the chaotic scenes around him.
The Mad Hound was still such a threat despite his injuries as he killed his enemies with ease.
The enemies saw this as an opportunity to take Bjorn's head but Bjorn did not move to defend himself, this showed just how much Bjorn trusted Viggo as Viggo appeared out of nowhere and cut them down in a heartbeat.
No one could get close to him and Bjorn walked into the tent to begin the real battle.
