Well in the old days I probably would have. But you see, Hiccup really has had an affect on me. I don't have to always go for the kill anymore. He spared me and I spared him. At that moment, my ideas changed radically. Now Hiccup does keep me in check. I would have probably put an acytleme bolt into the head of my old rival, but I am glad I didn't. I have contemplated shooting Mildew, but it is Hiccup's call. I trust his sense of pitty to guide us!
