Chapter 96 - 96: A thief on the road (2/2)
”What are you talking about!”, The Little thief asked.
”Oh it's just that you are so short for a Nord, not only that but your ċhėst is flat and your ȧss is none existent.”, Lambert said while keeping his serious tone while this time sporting a teasing expression on his face.
”Your dead!”, the Little thief girl shouted as she lunged at Lambert with her twin daggers.
She was surprisingly skillful with the two weapons as she swiped or stabbed at Lambert with fluent and never-ending attacks that perfectly flowed from one to the other while also having both her daggers working together to corner him, instead of facing one little thief girl with duel daggers Lambert was facing two little thief girls with a single dagger each with perfect cooperation between them.
Yet...
Even with all this skill and speed she could even touch the edges of Lamberts roughly made prison clothes that were tightly sitting against his body looking a bit stretched.
”Stand still!”, The girl shouted as she kept attacking.
”Why?”, Lambert asked calmly while dodging another barrage of attacks, sometimes he would step back sometimes he would sidestep, or sometimes he would do an aerial somersault over the girl's head.
”So that I can stab you!”
”Don't wanna.”
The thief girl was on the verge of tears, not only was this big oath stronger than her, which she could except looking at his body which seemed to have part snow troll in it but what she couldn't accept was that he was even faster than her and worst more agile, doing maneuvers that she wouldn't even be able to dream of doing yet, he made it look so easy.
With another step, the girl took a few steps back while breathing heavily.
”Haaa...haaa, Ok...Haaa...have it your way...haaa... I give up”
Saying that she turned around and slowly started walking away.
”Wait a moment”, Lambert called out.
”What...now?”, The girl asked irritatedly
”Oh just wanted you to know that even if you were successful, I don't have a single coin on me.”
”What?!”, The girl yelled as she turned to face Lambert.
”Well look at me do I look like I have money”
The girl looked closely at Lambert and for the first time, she spotted the ragged clothing he was carrying, with the bonus of not having a coin purse insight.
”This was all for nothing”, The girl said in defeat as she fell to her knees.
”Well, weren't you suppose to figure that out before coming ut to rob me. Don't tell me this is your first time or something”
The girl shrank her head in at his words.
”This is?”, Lambert asked raising an eyebrow, receiving a small nod in return Lambert could only sigh.
”There is just one thing bothering me, you have such skill with the blade, what on earth are you doing robbing people”
The girl was quiet for a moment looking around as if to make sure no one was around before talking”
”Well...”
