[Nurina's POV]
We were waiting for Jon outside the entrance of the Corprusarium. He went in there an hour ago and it seemed that there is no problem so far.
I don't know how exactly did he find out about the Corprusarium and all this knowledge about the Magecrafter Yagrum Bagarn but it clearly had to do with his past life thing.
To tell the truth, I wouldn't have believed it even if Jon tried to prove it before, but to think it was all true and his soul lived once in a faraway realm. From what he mentioned, that world is knowledgeable about ours and they view the chronicles of the Nerevarine and the other heroes as tales of legends. And so, by using those memories of a past life, he had a great advantage in many things.
Maybe it is the case with all the Heroes, they get this push from the world to be the best versions of themselves relying on whatever the world can provide.
Still, Jon is a boy. He even died at a young age in his past life. He still isn't mature enough and makes me worry all the time.
"Stop sighing already, being a mother is this boring?"
Alfe was as indifferent as ever towards my worry about the boy. It gets on my nerve but I don't blame her. Being the first born clone to an ancient mage is tough and she had to face it all alone at first unlike the sisters that came after her. This was part of the reason she is not so open to people.
She, who is my master, is a very stern and strict teacher. She is also known to be the smartest and the strongest of the sisters as she was the one to receive the education personally from Grandmaster Fyr. Even though we hated each other at first, I chose to be her student to prove myself against her.
Beyte, on the other hand, was the second sister and she knew her ways around Lord Fyr. She learned from Alfe's mistakes and didn't annoy the grandmaster or argue with him. She can cook and sing and do anything that makes Lord Fyr pleased.
Just like Beyte, Delte was a great help to Grandmaster Fyr. Delte is the third daughter and she is absent at the moment. Haven't seen her in forty years but I am sure she is just the same. The kind and efficient person who solve all the problems and keep everything running.
The youngest and the fourth sister is Uupse, the one I can get along with the most and the one who saved my life when I was a child. She is a person with a big heart and takes care of all who are around her.
I was talking with the three present sisters who are my elders in a sort and was offered some Sujamma to calm down my nerves, the Corprusarium is my least favorite place in this house for many good reasons and I never wanted Jon to be down there… but who am I kidding? This kid is going to slay dragons or whatever, right?
"It has been years since we sat and had a talk like that." Uupse was the one who is enjoying the reunion from the heart, Alfe only joined for the drinks and Beyte is curious about Jon.
"So, how is our young Hero doing?" Beyte asked.
"Go upstairs and ask Lord Fyr if you want, he almost fainted from happiness when he heard there is a new challenger and was about to add a few more special traps… barely stopped him." Uupse said something that made me go pale for a second.
"Well, this is my first time having a fourth generation disciple from my line, I wouldn't want the boy to die that quickly." Alfe said.
"Tsk, how poisonous can you be, old hag?" I said and was about to clash head to head with her.
"Now now! Let's enjoy this and wait for Delte, and also we can hear about Jon, I want to ask some questions too." Beyte stopped said to keep me and Alfe from fighting.
I took the chance to show off how awesome Jon is, I also included Alina to show off how talented the kids I bring up can be. I am the only third generation disciple from the line of Divayth Fyr's daughters so having two talented fourth generation like Jon and Alina was something I can brag about day long.
"Speaking of which, aren't there other fourth generations other than Jon and Alina?" I asked about something that came to my mind.
"Yes, there is. Dreyla Indavel has established a magic school in High Rock and had some apprentices who are masters since long time ago. There should be fourth and even fifth generations by now." Uupse said.
Dreyla Indavel is one of the greatest mages in the world and a known figure in the mage societies. She is Lord Fyr's brightest disciple and she is a really old Arch-Wizard.
[A/N: from ESO]
"Delte wanted to take an apprentice once but she couldn't stand how dumb people can be and gave up too early."
"Oh! Speaking of the devil." As Alfe said that, the space around us distorted and another Dunmer female appeared in the room.
"You three lazy bums, didn't I say I would need a hot tub as soon as I teleport in… Eh! Nurina?"
Delte, who just teleported in the Onyx Hall, started cursing around. She seemed to be covered in some sort of a sticky substance.
"Long time, Delte." I said.
Delte and I are always on the same page, and right away I conjured a hot water tub for her.
"Ah! Always the efficient one. I always knew you would be a great mother one day." Delte praised me like she always did.
"Tsk! You are the one who ruined her with all these motherly legends you tell her." And Alfe was not happy about it as always.
The story about me and Delte is a bit interesting when it comes to our relationship. Ever since my birth mother passed away during the events of the Red Year, Delte took the role of being a motherly figure to me as she herself was curious about the role and always wanted to know more about being and having a mother.
Alfe was mostly displeased about it because the mother and daughter play Delte and I were in and she always claimed that Delte was hindering my studies.
To conclude it, my relationship with the Fyr sisters is unique. Alfe was my childhood bully and later my master, Beyte was the person I learned womanly things from, Delte was the motherly figure, and Uupse was the first person I had a crush on.
Later on, I learned that Lord Fyr let me live in his tower and be the responsibility of the four daughters for the sake of making them come together and share a common interest. It was an experimental idea in the end and I was a bit offended at first but I owed them a lot so I didn't really try to think about it in the end.
Delte joined the meeting and Uupse started telling her about what happened until the part when Jon entered the dungeon.
"HE DID WHAT?" Delte freaked out all of a sudden.
"... Wait, what's wrong?"
"He can't be in the dungeon… Not now, the place, it is not safe!" Delte said in a tone that made me worried.
"It's okay, the kid can handle it anyway." Beyte tried to assure her.
"... No, you don't understand. There is something in the dungeon, I found it a few days ago and was planning to clear it by the night."
Delte was a bit panicked when she tried to explain it. It seemed that some Alits and Kagoutis has found a way into the dungeon by the old cave on the Azura coast and colonized a swampy part of it.
"It is not a problem for Jon you know, let alone an Alit, a Kagouti will be a good challenge." I said as I didn't think it would be much of a challenge.
"I am not talking about a normal Kagouti here, there is an Alpha Bull Kagouti, and it is the mating season."

[Jon's POV]
I was acting as cool as possible while facing the Kagouti that appeared from the small swamp in the dungeon.
I decided to use Flame Magic against the bloody thing, I used my Fire Magic skillfully the way Jonrad had taught me and showed the ugly dinosaur who is boss.
Still, it was too resilient. No matter how many burns the creature suffered, it was still agile and started roaring around as if it didn't receive any hit.
"Alexa? Is this thing going to last forever?"
<Please cast 'Scan'!>
"Okay."
I cast 'Scan' and the System started analyzing the data on its own.
"How is it?"
<Analysis complete! Displaying data…>
-------------------------------
Race: Kagouti
Estimated States:-
Level: 28
HP: 64/416
SP: 21/264
MP: 36/36
Weakness: Lightning
-------------------------------
Oh! Seems good!
'It seemed to be vulnerable to Lightning. Fine, that's my strong point.'
I looked around and evoked 'Sparks', the channeling spell of beginners and aimed at the water of the swamp the Kagouti was standing in, I didn't forget to float above the water of course.
Lightning and water is the worst combination for many reasons and as soon as the spell struck, the Kagouti started shivering and its HP stating going down.
"Haha! Look at that, you should know who is boss now."
I increased the output of my spell and the Kagouti was already at its limit when something very very unpleasant happened.
Roars, similar to that of the Kagouti ahead of me, sounded from around the place. The small swamp started moving and a lot of silhouettes appeared.
"These are… Fuck me!"
Of course, a lot of Kagoutis appeared from all around the place. Even the tunnels surrounding the area stated showing some similar reactions on my 'Scan'.
"Where the fuck did all of those come from?"
I was a bit taken aback but I was making preparation for a big spell this time. Still, a presence among the Kagoutis made me feel a bit threatened.
I looked around and focused my vision on the place tunnel it was coming from and…
"... Fuck you, guys! This is not legal! Against the rules... No one said anything about a bloody T-Rex."
*ROOAOAOAOAAAR!*
"Fuck you! I am out of here!"
The lazy bum Daedric Lord of Cliffhangers and Catitism was having a battle with Venom the past couple of days and got a bit busy.

"This is against the rules... No one said anything about a bloody T-Rex."
*ROOAOAOAOAAAR!*
I just saw a very unpleasant thing, apart from the tens of the Kagoutis that appeared after I recklessly electrocuted the water, a very big Kagouti with red scales and glowing eyes came from one tunnel and roared at me.
The large kagouti was almost five meters big which is two times larger than the average kagouti, one can compare it to a T-Rex because of the size if its mean looking head and its sharp fangs and big tusks.
"Alexa! What is that?"
---------------------------
Race: Bull Kagouti
Estimated States:-
Level: 50
HP: 880
SP: 632
MP: 40
Weakness: Lightning
---------------------------
"Fuck you! I am out of here!"
The best option right now is to run.
I turned around and just like that… I started running with my all.
What about the chest in the wall you ask? Well… I think my life is more important right now.
Even though I was surrounded, it was easy to break free with my speed.
The idea of facing all that number myself is not that appealing at the moment.
I picked a tunnel that seemed to be empty and started running… of course, my new kagouti friends wouldn't want to part from me too soon and started giving a chase.
*KWAAAR*
*ROAR*
*FAAAA*
The damn things made all kinds of noise when they ran, the scariest thing was the Bull Kagouti that broke all the lines and started chasing me ahead of its pack vigorously.
"Go away!"
*ROAOAOAAR*
"No, I am not food you dumb idiot!*
*ROAAAAR*
"I said not food dammit... Fine! Take this!"
The Bull Kagouti was drooling and roaring while it was running and annoyed Oblivion out of me, the only way to retaliate to it is by laying traps. And what better trap than the 'Lightning Rune'?
I started carpeting the way behind me with a lot of 'Lightning Rune' marks appeared with a glow behind me. Once the Bull Kagouti stepped on one of them, Lightning exploded from the rune with a strong sound… but it was still okay and not even scratched.
"Damn! What is wrong with that thing?"
I only had to run and spam runes everywhere from this point on. Luckily, the other Kagoutis weren't as resilient as the big one so they got affected by the magic.
It wasn't much longer until I started running out of escape routes and really was considering using the scroll that teleports me out of the dungeon but I would be very ashamed if something like that happened.
It was then when the System gave me a thin glimpse of hope…
<Analysis detected a weakness!>
"Fuck yeah! Show me show me show me!"
<All Kagouti creatures possess a bad eyesight especially in dark spaces, they mostly rely on their keen hearing sense and their ability of vocal communication!>
"... bad eyesight? A keen sense of hearing… I see…"
With that in mind, I think I can already deal with whatever that is!
***
Jon was running out options but it was time to get serious.
"Alexa, play me some music!"Jon gave the order as he started casting 'Magestereo' orbs all over the place and it was all linked to the System.
<Confirmed!>
♪Bitch Lasagna - Pewdiepie♪
"Hell yeah! Let's jump into this!"
The Magestereo orbs started playing the song as hard as it could and Jon observed the changes happening in the surroundings… sure enough, the Kagoutis started running into the walls.
Jon laughed and cast 'Muffle' on himself then started going the other way but he suddenly saw two glowing red eyes glaring at him…
"Eh, Alexa! That last thing you discovered, is it applied on the Bull Kagouti too?"
<Negative!>
"Fuck you!"
*ROOAAAAR!*
"NOT YOU… shit!"
The Bull Kagouti seemed to have no problems with it eyesight, Jon realized the fact but the Bull Kagouti started attacking.
*Swoosh* *Chomp*
The Bull Kagouti attacked Jon with a swing of its large tusks and then tried to bite Jon who evaded skillfully.
Jon managed to jump away and released his Aura and cast 'Energize' and 'Hasten' on himself, his speed reached its peak and the true clash between the Bull Kagouti and Jon began.
Jon chose to widen the battle area to fight with ease but the tunnel he was in was filled with Kagoutis that were chasing the Stereo Orbs. Jon thought of something funny and manipulated the orbs towards the Bull Kagouti.
The orbs wouldn't work against such a creature but when it was about to charge at Jon, what faced its charge was its kin. The other Kagoutis mindlessly charged at the Bull Kagouti and blocked its charge completely resulting a massive traffic jam in the tunnel.
"Sorry, mate! Next time, don't bring your kids to a fight."
Jon was in a good mood and kicked a Kagouti that was lying on the ground towards the Bull Kagouti that was standing up.
With no mercy towards its kin, the Bull Kagouti received the flying kagouti with its head and bashed it away.
"Bastard! That was Sally, your niece!"
*ROOAAAAR!"
"You evil bastard! Don't disown your family members that fast… Here, take those three. Kim, Khloe and Kourtney!"
Jon kicked three more Kagoutis towards the Bull Kagouti.
*ROAAR!*
The Bull Kagouti was annoyed and roared then headbutted Khloe and Kourtney away then hit Kim with its tail back at Jon.
"Damn, you are learning! But..."
Jon was surprised when Kim was kicked back at him but he performed a 'Matrix Dodge' and Kim flew over him.
"... Can you do this? Huh? I don't think so!"
During the 'Matrix Dodge', the Bull Kagouti took the chance when Jon wasn't watching and charged at him.
Jon realized it but it wasn't too late, he didn't even run to the side but charged head on and slid on the ground bypassing the Bull Kagouti by going from between its large legs.
Jon who was sliding and the scene was moving in slow motion saw something above him that made him cringe hard to the point that he missed the time to jump away. Still, he managed to roll away and stood up trying to possess what he saw.
"Damn! You are not a man you bastard? I thought you were the Alpha male of this pack!"
*ROAR!*
"Alexa! What is going on here?"
<Kagouti usually live alone or in small groups. They gather in larger groups only for mating seasons. At these times the females can be observed as the dominant sex. They might even sometimes attack the males.>
Jon couldn't help but cringe.
"This world needs to be burnt to hell before any feminist arrives… Sigh! Fine, from now on, I'll call you Caitlyn."
Caitlyn didn't seem to be happy about the name and charged at Jon once again.
***
"*Huff Huff* … How long has it been?" Jon said as he was huffing and facing Caitlyn who didn't look well either.
<1:12:33>
"Damn! This is thing is insane!"
Jon was battling the Bull Kagouti for the past hour and twelve minutes and both started to get tired and bored.
The system stated that the Kagouti were weak to Lightning Magic so Jon did his best to fight that thing with lightning but it still was a bit hard to penetrate all the thick scales of that creature.
Jon checked the states of Caitlyn and it seemed that the damn thing was really having a hard time keeping up but the problem was its stamina regeneration that was really exceptional. Luckily, with time and a lot of effort, its stamina started to regenerate slower and slower.
Jon checked his states too…

'That's it, huh? I still have some Magicka to spare! 'Flash Bang!''
Jon set the next curse of action and cast a spell right in front of the Bull Kagouti, once it landed, a bright blinding light exploded with a strong and annoying sound wave.
Jon has already covered his eyes and ears to avoid the spells annoying effect. Caitlyn, however, took all the damage and groaned with a roar.
"Hehe! Sorry about that but this is the end."
Jon used the chance to cast the final spell, it would take a bit of time but the spell was already powerful enough.
"Now, go to hell… Oh shi…"
Jon, who was about to achieve victory with his trump card spell, was astonished when he saw the Bull Kagouti pull itself out of the flash bang's effect and charge madly at him. It was a desperate attack as the Bull Kagouti seemed to have been really blinded by the 'Flash Bang'.
Jon tried to cast his spell a bit faster but there was no way, he tried hard to do so but the Bull Kagouti was here first. Its sharp tusks were already piercing through the air targeting Jon's head.
"Fuck!"
The spell was interrupted and Jon had to block the Bull Kagouti with his body. He had no chance but to dismiss the spell and hold onto the two big tusks that were aiming at him.
*ROAAR!*
The Bull Kagouti realized it has hit something and is it vision became clearer, it saw Jon who was pushing against it with his body while holding its tusk.
Jon's state was worsening as his interrupted spell's Magicka got backfired at him and he spat a mouthful of blood just like that…
The Bull Kagouti took the chance to push with all its might but Jon was not that easy to be pushed even by a giant creature like itself. Jon's legs were stuck into the ground while it was trying to resist the Bull Kagouti that was giving all its weight in the push.
*ROOAAR!*
"No, you won't, Caitlyn."
With its mouth free, Caitlyn started roaring at Jon who was right in front of its face. It had no forelimbs to attack Jon with which made Jon very thankful but he was being pushed back towards a dead end at an alarming rate.
*ROAR!*
"You mouth stinks dammit… huh?"
Jon had a sudden enlightenment and looked right at Caitlyn.
"Roar one more time, please."
*ROOAAA…*
"FUS RO DAH!"
*Puchi*
A massive flesh explosion happened in front of Jon and blood dyed the surrounding area.
"Damn!" Jon couldn't believe what happened in front of him. The massive Kagouti got the 'Unrelenting Force' shout through its throat and a large part behind the neck area exploded and got separated the head from the body.
Jon was just standing there and holding the mean looking big head from the tusks and really felt uncomfortable. He threw it away and sat on his butt.
"This was… hard!"
Jon didn't want to do anything anymore and just wanted to rest. From the very beginning, he didn't try to use the Thu'um looking at how destructive and cheaty it is. But in the end, he had to use it in a life or death situation.
"Phew! I guess I should go back and…"
*ROAR!*
*KWAR!*
"... or not!"
Jon looked around him and saw two more Kagoutis.
"... I suppose you must be Kylie and Kendall!"
*ROAAR!*
"Just give me a break! Dammit!"
Jon jumped up and started looked around him for a place to run away. Unfortunately, it was a dead end and the only way out is through.
Some more presences started appearing on Jon's scan and he caught a sudden headache, it seemed that there is no way but to leave the dungeon empty-handed.
While he was looking around, he saw a wide enough pipe hole in the cave's wall.
"Sigh! I guess there is only one option, let's jump into it!"
