The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 575

Momentarily stunned, Quil quickly recovered, and a smirk made its way on his face. "Yes, she's an outsider, but your mother-in-law isn't, right?"

He shifted the aim from Xena and was about to point it at Fiona-who was by the corner—to get her walking to him.

Fane had anticipated as much. Faster than anyone could blink, he kicked hard once he saw the other party move the gun away. The pebble he kicked zipped through the air shot Quil’s hand that held onto the gun.

"Ahh!" Quil felt a wave of extreme pain as though he was hit by a bullet, and his grip o n the gun loosened by reflex.

The aim shifted away from Fiona, but as the gun slipped from his hand, he accidentally pulled on the trigger.

Bang!

A gunshot was heard. The bullet shot Brother Octo at his chest, where his heart was.

"Young Master..." Brother veto's head lowered ever so slowly to see the wound; blood was oozing like water. The man then fell backward as he breathed his last, and eventually, his breath left him permanently.

Everything happened so quickly, and in a split second the gun had fallen to the floor

"Aah!" Quil knelt in pain as his grip on Xena loosened.

Meanwhile, Fiona was met with the eyes of lifeless Brother Octo, who collapsed right next to her after the gunshot. Those void eyes, eyes that belonged to a dead man, made her faint.

The gunshot would have hit her; there was not much distance between the two after all.
