I opened my eyes and stared blankly at the dilapidated ceiling for a while, then sat up and looked around.
This is not a warm hotel room in Nike Woods, but a dilapidated wooden house with drafts everywhere. It is obvious that it has just woken up from the cold.
The bed is covered with fur sheets made of various animal skins, and the quilt is also made of the same material. My luggage is placed on the low cabinet next to the bed, and on the humanoid armor stand next to the cabinet, I wear my handsome clothes.
of ebony armor.
In addition, there are also many old and clean furniture and furnishings in the hut. The fire pit is small, but the heat it emits is barely enough for people who are more resistant to cold or who are accustomed to such temperatures to fall asleep in the house.
In front of the wall on the other side of the cabin opposite to the bed, there is a person wearing a black hood who is tied to a chair. Judging from her old-fashioned and heavily patched gray sarong, she must be an elderly person.
And a lady who is strapped for cash.
From time to time, the sound of the waves of the river and the roar of some beasts can be heard outside the hut. It sounds like this is a house close to the river and far away from the town.
After looking around and finding no one, I quickly jumped out of bed and put on the armor. After all, it was very cold in just a nightgown and I didn't feel safe.
During the process, the tied lady seemed to hear the noise and began to struggle, and kept shouting "Is there anyone there?" "I don't have money, you tied the wrong person!".
"What an interesting reaction. It seems that you 'Sino Scholars' only believe in your own strength." Just as I was putting on my armor, a low and soft female voice sounded from behind me.
"Who?" I drew my sword and turned towards the place where the voice came from. There was a sturdy wardrobe, and a female figure wearing a white cloak and a white hood was standing above it.
"Not checking your package means you don't care about the property, and not checking what happened to the kidnapped person means you won't show unnecessary sympathy," the woman continued: "And after seeing me, I didn't
Launching an attack rashly proves that you are smart enough, so the question now is, for what purpose did you kill Guiluo?"
"Um...for justice?" I answered, staring at the woman whose face could not be seen clearly under the white blouse.
"We all know that this sentence is meaningless," the woman's tone was calm: "There are only good and evil, order and chaos in this world, and justice? Whose justice? The justice of the Stormcloak is to restore the glory of Talos.
The justice of the Imperial Regiment is to quell the rebellion in Tianji. Who do you think is the justice of them when you give this answer?"
"Whichever side I join is the right side," I replied.
"Very good, 'I am justice', it seems we can continue talking," the woman in white robe jumped from the top of the wardrobe and landed next to the kidnapped lady as lightly as gliding: "You killed us
The original target is Cixiang Guiluo, so you have to complete another task for us. However, for the sake of convenience, the target has been brought to you, and all you need to do is to deal with her according to your own ideas.
"
The "target" who was still struggling and shouting immediately became quiet after the woman in white approached, and she could even be seen shaking slightly. It was obvious that she knew that this person was completely unable to compete with him.
"Ari Quintus, a Nord," the woman in white just mentioned her name, which made the "target" tremble: "A tailor living in Windhelm City, because her youngest son and a dark
The elf got married and severed the relationship with her, but then stole their half-elf child from her home. Later, she used her connections to drive the couple out of Windhelm City. The contract to assassinate her was made by that woman.
Provided by the Dark Elves."
"That Bichi..." the tied woman whispered through gritted teeth.
"Are you really going to deal with it according to my ideas? After you specifically said these words, if she comes back alive, wouldn't the two of them be dead?" I put away my sword and looked at the woman in white robe.
"Among our targets, she is the only one who is similar to Guiluo in every aspect. Let's make a choice." The woman in white robe avoided answering.
"I guess the client just wants her to disappear, and has no intention of seeing the body." I walked over and put my hand on the "target"'s shoulder, and a space crack appeared behind her, and the tailor only spat out
The word "no" was instantly sucked in, and the crack closed.
"That is the portal leading to [Atayum]. People without magic talents cannot leave," I looked at the woman in white robe, "This method is no different from direct killing, right?"
"At least that's the case for the client." The woman in white robe was noncommittal, walked to the door of the cabin, unlocked it, and pushed the door open: "My name is Astrid. You have obtained the qualification to join us. Once you decide, you will come to Fork."
Come to me in the sanctuary near Reese, the code is 'Silence' - you will know what it is used for."
After Astrid left for a while, I picked up the package, opened the door, left, and rushed back to the hotel in Nike Grove.
——22:53——
[What a great performance~ Bang Bang Bang~] Stupid System said exaggeratedly.
'That's why I don't allow you to speak out. If you accidentally show that you want to beat someone up, it will make her assessment of me wrong.' I threw the luggage and package back on the hotel bed: 'She shouldn't have checked it.
Let's talk about the relationship between Jeanne Darc and Zella Pesh? After all, this teleportation technique is so similar.'
[Didn't you set it up? The 'Hino Scholar' also learned the teleportation spell from the cult of 'Atayum', but it can only be teleported in one direction, unless those few are teleported by you.
There are members of the Brotherhood among them, otherwise they would not be discovered. Although the Mage Academy is not as good as before, spies cannot sneak into it casually.】
'Well... although the mage vest can still be used casually, this cannot be done. From now on, it can only appear in different places at the normal travel speed. However, the advantage is that it will be very easy to save the target of the Dark Brotherhood.
'
[Speaking of which, Arthur can fly and you can teleport. Only Emil is in a worse situation and has to take a carriage or walk——]
[Tip: Emilia Septim begins to seize control of "Midnight".]
etc?!
Let me remind you that what my sister reminded me so suddenly last time was the news that Arthur had turned into a dragon. What kind of beast had evolved into a dragon form? What was it this time?
The screen that the stupid system opened in front of me was showing Emil stepping on the head of a black horse in the stables of the Nike Wood Hotel.
"Hey, this is not our goal. We have to rush to Windhelm City as soon as possible. I thought you remembered." Xiaofan said in a low voice.
"...Just for a while." Emil rubbed the big black horse's head, but the other party had no intention of kicking him.
From my perspective, the horse is changing ownership at a not too slow pace.
'Why are the two of them here? And the horse...oh, yes, Cicero has gone'
[Astrid was so annoyed by Cicero that he came to you on that Shadow Nightmare.]
'How did I know it would be like this? Cicero who couldn't hear the Night Mother's voice was a weird clown, but Cicero who heard the Night Mother's voice was a crazy clown. Anyone who chatted with him for a few words would
I'm going to have so many doubts about why I made the decision to talk to him.'
【What about yourself? Your Highness Night Mother?】
'I'm okay...I'm used to it.'
[As for Emil and Xiaofan, they were probably annoyed by Esgail Snowhoof. Emil himself probably didn’t care, but Xiaofan felt the same way because he had been treated like this by Delvin, so he pulled her out to perform the mission.
】
'Hmm... So two people with different speeds collided with me?'
[Astrid was busy looking cool in that hut, and is still asking the innkeeper about you. He shouldn't have thought that anyone would try to take advantage of that naughty horse.] The stupid system pops up Astrid again.
Holding a glass of mead and talking to the female owner of the "Forest Ribbon" hotel.
‘It’s okay for Emil to take the horse away. She has always been short of transportation, and the horse also has some kind of spatial ability.’
I have always been very skeptical about the details of Sister A’s arrest. Even the system settings must be reasonable. The player chooses an orc with the largest height and weight, and he is wearing a heavy dragon bone armor. How is Sister A going to do it?
He kidnapped?
When she came to catch me pretending to be asleep, the mystery was solved. The dark, immortal, and warlike Shadow Nightmare mount was actually able to spray out a large cloud of black mist, carrying me along with my armor and luggage.
Swallowed away together, inside is a space similar to the realm of annihilation, except it is very small. The horse can follow Astrid's command to put away or release many things, but it cannot pick up and place each object individually.
operate.
[Tip: Emilia Septim successfully seized control of "Midnight".]
"咴咴——" Heima, who was just being touched passively, suddenly cried out twice, then lowered his head and rubbed Emil's hand.
"...Success, come here." Emil hugged the horse's neck, then turned over and mounted on the horse's back.
"Not to mention your ability to control magical creatures, your riding skills are also very good. What did you do before?" Xiaofan also climbed on the horse's back. Since it has a strong physique, it is completely fine for two little girls to sit on it.
question.
"...Imperial Princess, drive." Since there was no reins, Emil pulled off "Midnight"'s mane.
"I'm still the Holy Spirit - so fast?!" The dark horse suddenly accelerated, almost throwing Xiaofan off.
Astrid, who seemed to have noticed something, hurried out of the hotel, but only saw the back of the black horse running away.
[Sister A lost her horse, how could she know it was not a blessing]
