Chapter 17: The Crazy Poet (2/2)
I took the dagger from his stoer rested in the heart of the assassin
This is my first ti a life like that is not so I wish to do indiscrio around and murder all day These are people
Anyway all that happened in a second The other assassin only noticed that so after I disaruess there is no need to be polite
As I was ive a chase, my room's door was opened with a kick, calm your horses sheesh!+
”Jon, what is that noise?” Wulfur came in and after him was Battle-Born
”assassins” I said ”I took care of one and going after the other”
As I finished I saw the belt that Wulfur uses to carry his axes in his hands In no tih the ith an axe each hand
I could see the other assassin was running on the roofs, is that so? Time for some parkour then
The roofs in Solitude were dormer roofs so they were easy to run on I take e of the roof, there were a wooden pole from the street that carries so's roof, after arriving on the roof I ran forward few ht as there ooden poles linking between buildings, I ran on the across the street
That was repeated few more times with some flips and backflips until I narrowed the distance between me and the damn assassin
Froirl
I don't really care, I threw the axes few tie and I had to collect these axes and run again
This is not gettingthat I could feel a presence running in the street, it was Battle-Born with a bow in his hands
”Hey, where is the assassin?” He shouted
”Just ahead Listen, I need you to run towards the fletcher's and station yourself in good spot, have a full view of the roofs, will corner in the market” I made a hasty plan
”Fine, Wulfur is behind but he will catch up to me Good Luck” Battle-Born said, and ran towards the castle
Now let's corner her irl disappeared
I knew exactly where she was because I was detecting herto ain
I had to focus my spells at the direction I don't want her to run to, the plan was going so far so good
Her speed was good, I indeed can't catch up to her on open field
Aher where I needed Now she was trying to run on a wooden pole but as soon as she found a foothold on it, an arrow broke the air and buried itself in her thigh
I could hear her a screairl's balance was already lost She fell froh, that was not really a proble on her head
As I atching, I saw soirl, it was Wulfur my man
”Good, catch the assassin” I shouted
He nodded with firmness on his face, but what I saw next left me dumbfounded
I told hini-Ra' with hiirl, just grab her and bin her down, I wanted to say all that but it was already too late
Wulfur used the hammer like an experienced baseball player with a bat, he directly hit the falling girl horizontally in her sto a hammer in combat for you
What I saas not unexpected but still left irl flied to the market square with a beeline, dairl crashed on a stall and fell to the ground, the place was empty thank God
I juirl
She appeared to be in agony after she took the hit, some burn ni-Ra
”Dairl you hit just now” I looked at hiirl? Wasn't that an assassin?” Wulfur asked
”Yes” I answered
”An assassin girl?” Wulfur made a duic
But whatever, that girl started to ht and my reflexes kicked in
I kicked towards Wulfur and sent hih his location
The girl threw a knife And it was lethal and accurate as hell
The girl crawled on all four quickly and entered some alley way, I ran after her and entered the alleyway but another silver beairl is persistent
A minute later I could hear heavy huffes from the alley, that must be hers She was cornered and had only few bones intact to move her arms and throw stuff
Battle-Born and Wulfur were behindsoe wooden shi+eld and positioned it front of him, Battle-Born went behind him and I was the last
We invaded the alleyith few sounds of knives sinking in the wooden shi+eld
After a while, the girl ran out of knives, I went out of the shi+eld's protection with ht, she was a thin girl with dark short hair, she already removed her hood and mask to breath, sees
Her left eye hite as she has lost its sight long ago, she also had many scars on the left side of her face, old ones it seems
Her skin was a pale, and on the sides of her head there were short pointy ears
Half-human half-elf, Nurina toldone
The right side of her face was gave off her beauty, but no matter how pretty she is she was an ene and I hope I don't need to resort to it
I used 'Bound Dagger' spell in irl
As soon as I reach her she tried to kick away but she was already weakened, I grab her fro her up, I could see ony and she raised her hands to attack er in irl screa cruel but we have tays to end this, the easy way or the hard way, that depends on how fast you loosen your beans” I said like a character froed it into a 'Cal in Illusion seriously so I put er
As soon as the spell was casted on the girl, her expressions changed fro body, started to cal her neck reuards, for an assassin girl, jail is only the start of misery” I made a statelared at hed like a mad person but I returned it with a slap, I could hear Battle-Born and Wulfur behindaway frouy, but one needs to act like this towith that type of scuirl didn't stop her crazy laugh What an M! But I could hear soround, it looked like so shaken by irl to the wall behind her, she coughed as fell on the ground with no power, but she looked at the journal with madness as if she had dropped her child
She moved her crippled arms to catch it but she was slow, I stepped on one of her arms and picked up the journal She looked distressed with madness after I took the journal and wanted to ry, and I have a bad habit of acting ier so I did what I felt like I want to do
Due to the kick, the girl screa but I remembered that Wulfur just hit her there with ot
Battle-Born was shocked of”Hey, What are you doing?” but before he could say anything else Wulfur caught up to him and shook his head
Well, sorry you had to see that guys
Suddenly I could hear heavy footsteps andto our direction
I didn't turn but the guys did A light fell on us but I could already guess as that, still I hid the journal in my clothes hurriedly then turned
”By the order of the Jarl, Stop right there” A loud voice sounded
