Capítulo 23: Little Mouse
After leaving the academy grounds the trek to the city if Rexenvel was a short one, while I could have hailed a carriage I decided to walk. Since the duel a few days ago I decided to keep the magic suppression bracelet on, I sort of hoped someone would underestimate me for not exuding any magic aura. That and I felt rejuvenated passively absorbing the essence of the heavens and the earth, I felt like I could leap with enough force to reach the sun.
The academy was located a few miles outside the capital city proper, upon arriving at the gates of the city I was stopped by two armored guards, "Halt!" They said in a commanding tone. "Who are you and what business do you have inside the city?" One of them asked.
"Lilith, visiting." I said flatly. Deciding on a fake name.
"Place your hand on this crystal Miss." The other guard said. I recognized this to be a similar crystal the administration clerk used but I still obeyed and touched the crystal, however unlike last time, when my hand came into contact with the crystal nothing happened, no light as if I had no magic.
Both of the guards nodded, "You may pass, do not cause trouble or else you will be arrested."
As I was walking past them I heard them whisper to each other, due to my enhanced hearing I heard them, "Not an ounce of magic within that trash.." one of them spoke then the other spoke up, "We should kidnap her and sell her in the underground market, even though she is a no magic trash she is quite a looker."
During this time I was acting as if I was absolutely enthralled but this massive beautiful city.
I heard both of the guards walk up to me, "Hey Lilith right? You look new to big cities why don't you let your uncle show you around." Motioning to himself with a forced smile.
"Mmm I don't know.. aren't you watching the gates?" I said with sweet words.
Inwardly thinking "ugh.. what honeyed words for a dead man."
"I suppose.. I am in need of a guide.. and to have such a knowledgeable one who is also a city guard I think I would feel quite safe traversing this great city.. shall we then Mr.?"
As Lithia traveled the street with a helpless facade on her face flanked by two guards, in another part of the city a shadowy figures lurks silently as the shadow figure moves from alley way to alley way the shadow figures enters into a building, once inside they take their cloak off revealing long ashy hair tied into a pony tail, her light gray skin and her elven ears coming to a point, her violet eyes had a sort of glimmer, "Ah.. your back so soon Ophelia did you complete your mission?" The voice came from a desk in the back of the room a chocolate skinned cat woman with redish orange eyes she seemed to sorting some papers.
"Zara.. I found some rather unbelievable information.." Ophelia halted her speech as she felt a wave of discomfort wash around her.
Zara looked up to her, "I'm rather busy.. you don't look so good.. are you okay?" Zara said cooking her head to the side.
Ophelia nodded and steadied herself, "Its about the Mistress.." before Ophelia continued she felt nausea hit her like a wave, "Mmm.. she.." as Ophelia tried to speak she quickly found a trash bin and threw up.
Zara rushed over to Ophelia, "Did you get poisoned?" Zara asked with a caring voice.
"Blegh.. ugh.. I haven't eaten since I left this morning.. nor have I been hurt..." Ophelia vomits again.
Zara then promptly helped Ophelia to the couch and got her some water. "While I care for your health.. what news do you know about Mistress Lithia?" Zara still rubbing Ophelia's back.
Ophelia and Zara grew close to each other like sisters after they set up shop in Rexenvel, they also have a connection via their link to Lithia's blooded family.
Ophelia took out a crystal and placed to her forehead after a moment a black like smoke could be seen swirling inside the crystal after which Ophelia handed the crystal to Zara.
"Its.. better for me to show you.. this happened a few days ago.. after you look I have one other piece of news.. about our young.. lady.." as soon as Zara took the crystal Ophelia threw up into the bin once more.
Zara looked to Ophelia worriedly but placed the crystal on her forehead, when she did information and a vision flooded her mind. The vision was clear, from high in the stands of the coliseum it clearly showed Lithia vanish from sight and reappear behind the other man in mere moments. With no magical fluctuations at all, the visions then proceeded to show Zara how Lithia brutally pierced this man's stomach jettisoning a gout of his blood behind him, the next moment the man was on the floor the match seemingly over however unheard words caused Lithia to stab this man's crotch causing him to yell in agony.
Zara was gobsmacked she knew first hand that Lithia was next to useless without magic yet the vision clearly showed her wearing a magic suppression bracelet and showing no signs of magic fluctuations.. and what was that sword.. examining the vision closer Zara definitely saw this woman to be Lithia but this Lithia had superhuman movement and horns!?
Zara removed the crystal from her head and looked at Ophelia speechless. "What.. in the world happened in a week?"
A weakened Ophelia sat up, "That's not all.. my contacts spotted her leaving the.. academy grounds.. towards the city.."
A smile grew on Zara's face, "You rest I'll send word to everyone to meet home for dinner, have your scouts locate the Mistress.. but you go visit the doctor I can't have my best assassin sick."
Ophelia nodded as she gulped the water down and left through the same entrance she arrived in.
Zara began the homecoming preparations softly humming a song seemingly in a great mood.
Lithia being guided down a street, "This way miss it's a shortcut to the market." The guard said.
I nod and follow his direction as soon as he turned the corner following behind me he took out a dagger and pressed it's point into the small of my back. "If ya make any noise I'll slit ya like a fish!"
"Oh no what ever shall I do." I said flatly bored of this charade.
In that moment I decided to activate my Qi and turn the tables on him as I slinked around him like a serpent and pinned him to the wall, taking his dagger.
"Huh.. what? How?" He said quite confused.
"You know it's been a while since I've killed someone.. I've been itching to snuff a life out lately.." activating both my aura of Dominance and Draconic presence.
As I continued, "tell me where the underground market is and I'll spare you."
"I... wha.. pleas..." The man seemingly couldn't get a word out as I noticed a yellow liquid wetting his pants a moment later he became silent as he passed out from fear.
"Hmm good to know with both active it might be a bit overboard for some weak minded people.. well I'd better not waist food." I deactivated both skills as I bit down on the man's neck draining him completely of his blood, "Gross.. even your blood was boring.." I then proceeded to Rob him and mutilated his body. Wiping the blood from my lips with is shirt I left the alley trying to find my way back to the main street.
After a few minutes I felt shivers down my spine.. closing my eyes I activated Spiritual sight as my consciousness left my body and searched the surrounding area, as I surveyed the various alley ways my enhanced Spiritual sight spotted a figure watching me from behind some crates.
"You can come out.. I see you little mouse." As my consciousness returns and my eyes open as I turn to the crates however the figure didn't respond or show themselves so I took matters into my own hands as I activated my Qi and from the shadowed perspective I vanished.. completely disappeared. Completely stunned the figure turned to leave as they did they shrieked as I was wickedly smilining at them, "Boo!"
"AHH!" A human girl with long red hair with amber eyes, half of her face was covered by a mask, she wore a form fitting black leather set of armor with a few knives sheathed in various locations down her body, "Mmm so the little mouse is this cute.." I lift her chin so her eyes are meeting mine as I am slightly taller than her, before she could speak I continued, "Why are you spying on me little mouse?" I asked in a slightly sultry tone.
She stuttered as I could see her face starting to blush, "I..i.. was.. ordered to.. find.. and observe.. someone of.. your.. description.."
Gently caressing her face, "Ooh and who play tell issued this order..?" my lips close to her's.
"I.. I..my.. Master.. please don't.. kill me.." she became teary-eyed.
"Mmm I don't plan to kill you.. if you give me a little taste.. as compensation for spying on me.." my lips move past her lips and I nip her neck causing the girl to yelp.
"Ahh.. what do you.. want.. please.. im.. a.. virgin.." she was helpless against my strength. But her words only made my member strengthen.. by now she could feel it poking her thigh.
Biting her neck taking some of her blood.. Indeed she was a virgin.. her blood tasted divine.. not as good as Master's but close.
"Mmm you taste better than that other guy.. I will not hurt you further if you agree to take me to your Master so I might have a word with them about my precious privacy.. however if you decline.. well the gods know how much I want you little mouse.. having to restrain myself is quite hard.. in more ways than one.. you have 10 seconds to decide little mouse..." I continue to kiss her neck as I lap up her blood.
"Ahh~~ um okay... just no more.. I can't take it.." However her body was saying otherwise.
"What is your name little mouse?" I said releasing her from my grip.
Nervously she responded, "L...Lyra.."
"What a beautiful name.. lead the way little mouse."
As Lyra led Lithia through the various alley ways, Lyra tried to escape by speeding up her running However no matter how fast she ran and how quick she moved Lithia kept pace with her with no issue. Lyra thought to herself "what a monster... she doesn't even seem tired.. I can't sense any magic from her so how is she running so fast.. why did I have to be the one chosen to seach for this monster..." Lyra lamented in her head as she ran.
Not too long after the duo started there trek they stopped infont of a dilapidated building, Lyra motioned for them to enter and as she did she shouted, "MASTER INTRUDER PLEASE HELP ME!" Lithia sighed as at least 30 experts clad in shadows appeared in the octagonal shaped room.
Lyra took her daggers out and brandished them, "There's no where to run!"
Unlike how Lyra thought Lithia would react, Lithia simply just stood there casually stood in the center of this room, Lithia sighed as a liquid like metal started to form a metallic bluish longsword in her right hand.
"You all are making a huge mistake, If you throw down your weapons I will spare you.. however if you attack me I will slaughter you." Lithia said flatly cracking her neck.
One of the cloaked figures laughed as they laughed and spat out, "Ha! You are one against 30 you stand no chance intruder, a no magic trash who happens to have a magic weapon, Men take it from her corpse!"
"No magic you say.. if you say so.." Lithia muttered.
Something about how the way this person talked and held herself made Lyra nervous as she stepped back slightly, still holding her blade but unsure.
The next moment the cloaked man shouted, "Attack!" With that everyone lunged at Lithia with their blades drawn, everyone except Lyra and the cloaked man.
