Sabbath - Verse 12
Sabbath, verse 12
As Alice walked into Mosar's hall of lords, the heavy studded doors slowly closing behind her. On the other side of the Mossal aristocratic district, Minnie Mouse was lying on the bed and slowly opened her eyes.
The golden-red beauty blinked, looking left and right with a confused gaze.
"Hmm...... I ...... this," she propped herself gently against the edge of the bed, trying to sit up—a dangerous gesture that was immediately stopped by a soft hand.
"Don't move, you're still weak. The alchemist beside her pressed her back with a soft but unquestionable force. From the warlock's voice, the joy of love can be clearly distinguished.
"The medicine is working, but it will take a little time to fully take effect. ”
"It's Miss Patsy......" Minnie smiled weakly and lay down as the alchemist had commanded. "It's so hard for you to take such pains to help me with treatment. ”
"It's my job. The alchemist in a loose robe hurriedly waved his hand. "You should be even more grateful to the young lady named Alice, if she hadn't bothered to find rare medicinal herbs for you, Madame, I wouldn't have been able to do anything about it. ”
"Those are two different things. Minnie Mouse smiled and said, "I know my own physical condition very well, and some old problems cannot be eliminated by relying on a few rare herbs. It's all thanks to your medical skills and potions. Without them, I probably wouldn't have woken up alive. ”
Minnie paused, then asked, "Miss Alice has woken up?"
"Ah, yes. After she gave me the herbs in the morning, she went out with a package, saying that she had to deal with some miscellaneous items. Maybe I'll be back soon. ”
Patchy gestured. "The package looked heavy. ”
"Is that so?" Minnie thought for a moment, and soon came to her senses. "Oh, she's definitely going to the Chamber of Commerce to buy and sell the loot from those underground ruins. Phew, there's no need for her to be so anxious. ”
"Uh-huh. Patchy agreed, pursing her lips and giving a nice smile. But she didn't get involved too much on this topic, and casually diverted the topic.
"It's better for you to lie down for a while, I've already asked your servant to prepare porridge and hot soup, as long as you make up for a few days, pay more attention to your usual life, don't be too tired, and it should be no problem." Patchy said as she gently pressed the covers for Minnie.
"If your body is broken, there are a lot of people who will be sad. ”
"Huh. Minnie Mouse smiled dumbly, and then asked the warlock a playful question. "And that includes you, Patsy?"
"That's right," replied the purple-haired warlock without hesitation, "You're my patron, and you're hired for a period of two years according to the previous paperwork. If you fall, who shall I go to ask for payment?"
"That's pragmatism, Patsy. You could be a little cuter. Minnie Mouse shook her head slightly and said. "Even if there really is a day, you can-"
Her voice suddenly froze. It's as if someone suddenly shoved a stone into a well-functioning machine, and without warning, it came to a standstill.
Patchy looked down in confusion and looked at her employer.
She hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you, are you feeling unwell?", if she had reacted faster, she might have been able to detect how Minnie's face quickly shifted from pale to iron.
However, she wasn't fast enough. No, it's a good thing she's not fast enough. Because for this alchemist part-time physician with extremely low combat ability, being kept in the dark is the greatest happiness.
"No, nothing. Minnie smiled and shook her head. There was an unmistakable look in his eyes. She looked at Patchy and ordered.
"You've been busy for so long, you should be feeling tired. Go get some rest and get a good night's sleep. ”
This is a command, not a request. The plea was negotiable, but the order could not be changed, and when she spoke, her words were filled with an inexplicable power—the unsuspecting Patchy was overwhelmed by that power in an instant, and her eyes quickly became glazed.
"Yes, I'm going to sleep. She said in a hollow tone, and stood up stiffly like a puppet, and left Minnie's bedroom without a word. It wasn't long before the muffled sound of a heavy object falling on the bed came from her room.
"It came so fast. ”
Minnie Mouse pressed lightly on the side of the bed, and a hidden drawer quietly opened. She stretched out her hand and drew a pitch-black sword from the dark hidden space.
The blade of the sword was bladed on only one side, and the entire body of the sword was made of ebony, and the pitch-black spine was densely covered with blood-red runes. That's right, any qualified scholar, anyone who has studied the mythology of the demon race a little bit can easily say the name of this strange-shaped long sword at first glance.
Demon artifact, Mephalah's Ebony Blade.
For centuries, the appearance of this sword in the world meant that the whole of Tamriel was about to be met with untold deception and betrayal, intrigue and murder. And the owner of the sword, too, often does not die well.
And now, the sword is in Minnie's hand.
"I thought I could delay for a while, did I do useless work?"
She quickly got dressed and straightened her hair and cuffs. Soon, a sharp and awe-inspiring sword-like momentum gradually emanated with her actions, and the original delicate and weak aristocratic lady appearance disappeared without a trace in an instant.
There is no need to continue in disguise...... At least not yet.
Belonging to the aristocratic widow, Lady Minnie Ellisis quickly faded from the world. It's like snow on a winter day, and it disappears without a trace in the blink of an eye. The only thing left is one thing.
Minnie Mouse Menil!
She quickly pushed open the door, walked through the cloister, and silently passed through the rockery and nightshade fields before entering a hidden door. After seven or eight turns, they came to the ground - a huge cavern that would not attract the attention of the people on the ground even if there were a hundred mammoths charging in a group!
This is not surprising, the underground of Skyrim Province was basically hollowed out during the Dragon Worship period. Once a dragon Minimenil, it was not difficult for her to find an abandoned underground ruin in the city of Mosar.
Of course, that's not the point. A big pit in the ground is certainly not the point.
The real focus was on the man who had arrived before her and was waiting for her leisurely underground.
Perhaps, that's not human.
………………………………
"It's slow, Sister Minnie. As Minnie Mouse stepped into the underground cavern, the waiter slowly turned around.
She was tall, and her long, pale blonde hair swayed so high that it almost fell to her ankles. A white dress added a lot of charm to her. The pale red eyes were as bright and blazing as a fire in the dim underground.
In her hand was a long sword, a gray, single-edged sword of the same style as the Ebony Blade.
"I've been waiting for you here for a long time. Aren't you going to say something?" she chuckled, and said lightly. Her tone was calm and elegant, almost like a noble lady of noble status.
No, perhaps much more noble than that.
“Naha…… gliiv…… Why are you here?" said Minnie, biting her lip gently.
"It's okay to call me Narif. Mi Ni Sister Sister Sister The girl's long pale blonde hair swayed gently, as if an invisible air flow surrounded her. "Don't you know all too well why I'm here, because your soul is so weakened that it feels like half the weight is missing. ”
"Could it be that you are feeding the dogs?"
"God knows. Minnie's heart sank, and her fingers pressed to the hilt of the Ebony Blade. She raised her head and replied indifferently, "Maybe it's because the nights have been too noisy lately, so maybe your spirit is a little weak." ”
"Poof—Lack of sleep can take a toll on a dragon's soul. This is really a novel theory. The girl covered her mouth and smiled softly, but her pale red eyes gradually sharpened, dispelling the previous leisurely atmosphere without a trace.
Her voice grew cold until it was as cold as steel. "You have violated the duties entrusted to you by the Overlord and sent half of your soul to that half-cocked man who is neither human nor dragon. Isn't it?"
"Yes...... So what?"
"Not very good. Narif shook her head. "You think you're doing something covert, but you're wrong. Your rebellion has long been expected by the Overlord. After all, that half-man was borrowing the power of the overlord when he defeated you. But it was indeed her who carried it out. It's not incomprehensible that you'll change your position because of this......"
"But the future is already predestined, and even if there are some twists and turns, we will eventually return to the right path. ”
"Well, the future hasn't happened yet. Minnie snorted, and the ebony blade in her hand slowly raised. "So, you're here to correct your mistakes?"
"It's nature. Nariv lowered her eyes, and the gray single-edged sword slowly pulled out of its scabbard, making a crisp, nice sound of metal grinding. "I went to visit the dead snakes while you were playing with that half-man, though I didn't see a single one alive. However, I found a good weapon. ”
She raised her hand, the gray-white blade pointing downward.
"The name of this sword is Dragon's Death. It's a lot like the sword you remember, and I think it's like that. Maybe it's the same craftsman as the dragon that buried you. ”
"Come, let's fight. ”
