Chapter 61: Clash Of Auras (2/2)
Aerin, one of the residents of Riften, and God! He is the sli person in town!
He will rescue Mjoll and bring her all the way from the Dwemer ruin to Riften! He later will realize who he rescued and will use her to press the Thieves Guild around the town!
Her reason will be fighting thieves like the ones who attacked her village and killed her brother But she was driven by emotions and est infor didn't appear in the ga thieves and acting as the Godsend hero of the people
Irrational and irritating! Can't she even think for herself? Riften is a shi+thole and will remain one, even the people is well accustouild then e couards
She will only add uild Actually, I can't let that future happen
After a long conversation with her, I tried to give her a good impression about me If that Aerin will be able to turn her head around then it's not hard for me
”So Mjoll, where is your next adventure? Up to the sea?”
”No, not this ti in sea but I will do it one day!”
”Not the sea? Then what brings you to Dawnstar? If you head south then there are only wastelands of snow and wilds”
”I a to do so There is a place that peaked o and I think I want to venture there!”
”A place that peaked your interest south to Dawnstar? Don't say it letis there! Korvanjund? No, that's too far! Hmm”
”Miznchaleft” She whispered
”What! Oh God! That won't do, won't do at all” I said
”Eh! Why?”
”Listen sis! This is a College secret We sent an expeditions there not too long ago, a nues! Believe me when I tell you, that's not a force to be messed with” I said and looked concerned, ”They returned back in an unsightly shape Froe Autoht!”
”Is that true?”
”Dead true, but that's a big secret, if the other forces knew of this ill be a laughingstock! The Arch-Mage hiain and the news to be kept a secret! I only knew because e and she said it around me nonchalantly”
Mjoll looked down and started thinking, she was reluctant to give up her adventure that easily, ”Such a shame!” She said
”Don't feel so down! I believe the Divines arranged thatlike a shady business broker, ”I am in a quest to clear a cave, maybe there are some undead, treasures and God knohat else! But that's all on the surface, there is a bigger fish I a” She started listening
”There is a pirate gang that call itself the Blood Horkers ”
I started telling her the story of Winterhold, the corruption of the Jarl, the suffering of the people, how the pirates will targetthe Hel the expressions I wanted to see, that's why I started to tell the tale fro 'pirates' every sentence She hates bandits and pirates She even put us 'poor' thieves and 'honest' sory I need to clear thisbut later on
”So you want to remove the Jarl and what? Be the next Jarl?”
”Me? Jarl! Hahaha, I am sorry I just couldn't help it” I said, ”Coht to Oblivion”
”Then what is your plan?”
”Hoverning plan as well as society plan and a strategic plan If I start to act, it may take years to cut the pirates hand and their supporters If we did that, Winterhold will be an easy piece of et that all businessood, especially a territory that is too good and has a sea access as well as a treasure trove called the College of Winterhold! If we just fought with the current tiny chance of winning ill just open an opportunity for so now and ill take nothing for ourselves!” I said, ”My current plan is to start a small business to circulate money in the town, it will be a shady piece of business but it is what the town needs I will establish ive the ures and lead the populace as well as rate to Winterhold This will secure us all theforce, which will lead us to the last step, the independence and taking down the Jarl as well as opposing his supporters”
”You thought of all that?” I was not focusing on her face when I was talking, I was busythe cups and bottles around as if sorand plan When I looked at her face however, she was shooting beams of sparkles from her eyes at me
What a simpleton! I hate that kind of people who act like heroes throwing around flyers of justice and fighting evil while not actually doing anything about how to fix the probleo beat everyone who 'touch girls' buttocks' before Ibuttocks' and gain supporters”
Mjoll's face turned red as she realized what Iand narrowed her eyes at me, ”Why me?”
”Huh?!”
”I mean why did you tell someone you are not fa you out?”
”Sis, if I ca you a word, will you agree?”
She thought and said, ”No, I am not a sellsword”
”Exactly, I knew that the moment I saw you You are that kind of person who care about the people and act based on what they feel right or wrong I a it is bad It's just not the way how the world works?”
”And you know the way how the world works?”
”Every cat, mouse and skeever in Riften knows the way how the world works Of course I had Uncle Delvin to teachpeople by these scales” I said, ”But that's not i size adventure that will make you busy for maybe few years, what do you say sis, you're in?” I sht for a while then nodded and took my handshake
Hehe! To your face Aerin
Mjoll agreed to joinhere stuff, now I felt rather accoood deal and will make my job in Winterhold much easier! She will be a pain in Korir's ass
I couldn't help but so against wrecking havoc in his system
Still, I was not couys on the table next to mine There were a fiveatfunny on my face I even raisedyou fools' but they shamelessly raised there tankards back
I a to Mjoll, this may turn into a problem
Suddenly, ain two hours”
Who is that? I don't recognize hih, one of the shady people answered
I looked at hi
”I am sorry, my brother's name is Jon too”
One of the other tho sat on that Jon side talked directly too uys listened to so ize for their rudeness”
The third was dressed in a different kind hood, it was dark but a bit colorful I sensed a lot of Magicka froerous too The one who spoke to me felt as sharp as a blade, and the other one called Jon had a strange Magicka that felt not like a blaze
These guys were releasing some sort of Aura at ! So interesting! I want to couaranteed
Wait! I alsolike that The incomplete spell that I released at Jullanar to suppress her o
I used the hand on my other side of them to evoke and channel it directly
'Aura of Madness', it's as far as I could go but it will counter these crazy fellows
Now our Auraseasy at me
Still, I'll be rude
I stepped on the oil pedal and increased the output They also did
Our Auras were not visible but I think if I used a vision spell, I would see the can stop it One Aura was sharp like a blade wielded by aand everything
These were the colored hood man, the man who talked to me, and his friend named Jon respectively
My Aura, on the other hand, was too unrefined, a bit weaker and all over the place Still, it carried ative aspects I was not done I was co how to power it up more How to correct the aspects
What a chance! I smiled widely! My smile was so wide! I contain my happiness anymore
The first to back doas not me It was the man who talked to h!”
As if I oken up by a cold bucket of water I realized what I have done
These people's Auras was contained and focused on me! My Aura, on the other hand, was all over the place Unfocused and recking havoc not just against them, but too all the people in the inn
The place turnedat me as if I was some sort of a beast!
The three stood up and came to my table!
”Mind if we join you?”
