This was certainly not the knight's sudden change of heart, because even he couldn't have stopped in an instant.
The silver blade was held down by the fingers that were used to lift the basket, and it was stationary an inch away from the neck. A few chestnut hairs were cut off by the wind from the sword and fell along the clothes.
