It could be possible that he swung the sword with a force enough to separate his arm from his soldier. <br /><br />In the last line king didn't offer him any better position, so the soldier outright refused. But now the king knows that he can eat soldier with ease as he doesn't have any limb left with which he can pick up the sword and defend himself. That's the reason the king decided to do the job himself. Hope that answers your question.Shishouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02345527261947172623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523151654016546378.post-88182387256319846642016-07-01T18:38:49.171-07:002016-07-01T18:38:49.171-07:00But if you went by limbs then for the fourth time ...But if you went by limbs then for the fourth time you mentioned - how could he cut his right arm without a left arm? Unless he used his mouth in which case he can still use his mouth to cut the rest of his body :S<br /><br />Also in the story, the King no longer promises him any positions in the last line (previously he said he would make him a duke) so does that factor into the story?Anonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11261141180749988098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523151654016546378.post-31179155636236570752016-06-30T20:01:17.558-07:002016-06-30T20:01:17.558-07:00Yes, the soldier offered his own limbs to the king...Yes, the soldier offered his own limbs to the king until he could no longer cut himself.Shishouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02345527261947172623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523151654016546378.post-75019639987583082992016-06-30T20:00:39.974-07:002016-06-30T20:00:39.974-07:00The former one is correct.

So, when the king asked for food the 5th time, the soldier refused as he couldn't cut his limbs without using his had. After all, he need a hand to hold the sword, right?XD<br />So, then the king said that he, himself, will do it---he will cut the soldier himself and then eat him.<br />Btw, the king is a sick person.XDShishouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02345527261947172623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523151654016546378.post-3331347000367513882016-06-29T08:51:35.232-07:002016-06-29T08:51:35.232-07:00I thought of the first answer but not the second s...I thought of the first answer but not the second since I'm not sure if the corpses will wash up ashore - and would probably rot quickly!<br /><br />He probably gave as much meat as he had until he could no longer move or something similar?Anonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11261141180749988098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523151654016546378.post-73773476245259976192016-06-29T08:24:40.312-07:002016-06-29T08:24:40.312-07:00the soldier...gave his own flesh to the king? or i...the soldier...gave his own flesh to the king? or is it the soldier take the flesh of other dead soldiers until they were none left so the king tried to eat the soldier?Hemuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04114784387824749033noreply@blogger.com
