92 Unexpected Help (1/2)

”Welcome Mrs. Elune on behalf of the Silverwing Auction House I would like to thank you for allowing us the pleasure of auctioning your amazing find.Here is the money from the coins and the items you won.I hope we can continue to do business in the future”.

Elune took the pouch with all the items and immediately reached to grab the ring for inspection.The ring was in fact the real deal, the material it was made off was a green jade and the rune of the The Plaguebringer was engrave out of a brown stone.The moment Elune grabbed it for a closer look the ring vibrated like it had found a long lost sister.Ross tried to maintain his composure but a frown still crept up to his face.

The gestures of the director were lost in time as Elune counted her gold coins that were short about20%.Elune used her sweetest smile on Ross and asked, ”Director Ross I keep recounting the gold coins in the pouch but unfortunately I keep coming short by 560,000 of them. I am not sure why?”

Ross gave a fake smiled to Elune and said, ”The Silverwing Auction House takes a 20% fee for the sale of the items during the monthly Auction and unfortunately I was unable to waiver the fee you see, the decision came from the top and I didn't have any say in the matter.I am very sorry for the inconvenience”.

Elune heard the excuse and was about to say something else but was stopped by the Witch Doctor that told her to make sure all the items were there and let it go.The team left the office while Elune was complaining to Gilgamesh about interrupting her when she was about to get back the money that belong to them.

The team left the auction house and went for a walk around town as they now had money and could go to the best blacksmith in town and get Rahz's Axe fixed.While they were walking around a bulky warrior carrying a 4 feet tall greatsword bump into Rahz whose hand held his money pouch in place but the bulky warrior didn't apologized and instead said in his strong voice ”You are being followed”.

”What did you say?” said Rahz with a confused face but the warrior just shook his head like he was having a headache and said ”Fuck off”

Rahz furrowed his eyebrows and just brushed it off as he had possibly heard wrong.The team kept walking and more weird stuff started happening and apparently only Rahz was the one being targeted.

A little kid having a big lollipop look straight at him grinned and said ” Protect the Ring”.Rahz turn to look at Riddick and said, ” Did you hear that?”

”What?”

”Igor did you hear it ?”

”Nope”

Next was an old man sitting outside a store, ”They are coming for you”

Rahz rushed to the old man placed both hands on the old man's shoulders and shook him while asking, ”Who old man, Who is coming?”.The old man just stare at his assailant with a scared face that told Rahz he was doing something wrong.Rahz looked around him and everyone was treating him like he had lost it, they were all whispering to each other while looking his way making Rahz extremely uncomfortable.

Rahz looked towards his team who didn't know what to say.

”Something is happening!!! people keep telling me to be careful but then they don't seem to remember what they said, IT IS TRULY HAPPENING GUYS!!!”

”Is ok Rahz you probably just need to rest, let's go back to the hotel instead”.

Rahz agreed but when he turned to look at a store front, letters made out of blood appeared with a message ” BEWARE OF THE GOD OF JUSTICE”.Rahz rubbed his eyes and the message was gone. He was now convinced he really needed to take a nap.

In the other side of the street a human with a full length black leather trench coat smiled and turned around to leave and behind him one of the paladins from the auction house was following him like a guard but if anybody look from a short distance they could see the mesmerizing lights in the pupils of his eyes.

The people following Rahz saw the anomaly displayed by their friend who was assigned to follow the Coercer and decided to investigate that instead.Coercers were a very peculiar branch of the mage path, they could be call the evil twin brother of the illusionist.They used magic to dominate the mind of their enemies and subjugated them to their will.They could also push images into the minds of their foes fabricating memories to manipulated their behavior.Coercers were usually hunt down by any of the good alignment classes ever since one got mad at the authorities of a town and hypnotized all their children and made them drown.

A third tier was a scary beast in the food chain and more often than not only people of the same tier could deal with them but it depended on many factors.The coercer was a very tricky opponent but the problem the majority of the God of Justice followers presented was their lacked tolerance for other people's beliefs. Sometimes they committed atrocities way worst that any evil god follower in the name of justice, and in other cases they hit a steel wall for their lack of patience.

The plan was to tail the followers of Louxx and wait for their elite to confront them especially the third tiers.The necromancer need it at least 5 third tiers to contain and there were not enough available around Naas and the ones close by would cost a fortune to hire.

Mages were highly intelligent people and with every level gain their intelligence increased and if they had altercations with the Justice Followers before, they new what was coming.The poor paladin didn't have a chance to cast a skill before memories were push inside his mind that made him believe his previous enemy was now the most important person in the world.

The coercer gave a command and the paladin rushe at his previous friends that hesitated to act before getting cut down, when everything was set and done the paladin at the service of the coercer committed suicide as instructed by his master.
