He merely shrugs. He's taking this whole thing much better than Avery is, apparently. "What's done is done. Making you feel guilty for it is foolish. And it's not a sin to enjoy yourself in combat."
He shakes his head. "Put another way...does thinking about all those you killed in defense of your kingdom feel better if you stained their hands with your blood without feeling anything? Death is death."
If it's not a sin, it sure feels like one. "I don't know," he answers honestly. "I feel like I at least owe them some guilt, but..." But even before all of this, there had only been triumph.
Maybe something's been wrong with him since the very start.
He glances at him for a moment, and then sighs. "Well, do what you like. Wallowing in self-pity and bemoaning your feelings is an unproductive activity, but if it truly makes you feel better, I suppose I can't argue it."
He'd almost said unattractive, which was technically true but an odd choice of word to pop into his head. He puts it out of his mind.
