Chapter 24: Chapter 24 – Fists against Spells

The anchorite exchanged surprised glances with the woman who accompanied him, and who was probably also a necromancer, although she didn't wear a black robe. Dolada nodded approvingly after Selena's words.

"You see! Even my slave understands that you're talking nonsense, or as they say, "selling me a stinking scamp," she said, realizing that it would not be possible to negotiate with necromancers.

However, she tried to make one suggestion:

"But since we had a little misunderstanding last time, then I can return the 100 gold you paid. I can even add another 50 for your concern. It will be fair."

The anchorite was not at all interested in this. He grinned maliciously and said:

"You treacherously attacked me earlier. This is a terrible crime against the Order of the Black Worm. We can kill you here. And I'm sure we can do it! But I will mercy on you if you voluntarily hand over your slave to me."

"What?! No! This slave is MINE! And that's it!" the Nord woman screamed.

She instantly donned her rope armor and took out a club of submission with the poison of SILENCE applied. But this time the necromancer was ready and did not allow her to hit herself with a Club again. As soon as Dolada made a fast movement, he instantly applied a spell that destroys armor and weapons.

Dolada jumped back and realized that her club and rope armor were completely broken. The necromancer had cast a very powerful spell that she had never encountered before. She knew that in the magical school of destruction there are spells that can partially damage weapons or armor (for example, urinary bombs have such a magical effect), but she encountered a spell that completely damages armor and weapons for the first time.

She put the damaged armor and club in her inventory and used the spell "Frost Damage" against the Anchorite. For this, she used her last SCROLL with a combat spell, which she could use despite the almost complete lack of mana. An icy cloud enveloped the man in the black robe, and he screamed, backing away. However, this spell did not cause fatal damage, and the Anchorite received only a slight frostbite.

Meanwhile, the necromancer's companion, stretching out her hand, threw a beam of poisonous green color at Dolada. When the beam hit Dolada's body, a SILENCE spell was cast on her, depriving her of the ability to use magic. However, in her situation, it was almost pointless, since because of her curse, she already had no mana.

The female necromancer then took out a terrifying steel mace with sharp spikes and rushed to attack Dolada. She tried to hit Dolada on the head with a mace, but the Nord woman deftly ducked, and the weapon whistled over her head. Then Dolada quickly punched the woman in the stomach.

"U-ugh!" she gasped, bending in half, and almost laying her body on the shoulder of the crouching Dolada.

The female necromancer, shocked after the blow, began to lean over Dolada's shoulder and the Nord woman quickly stood up to her full height, throwing the enemy over herself. She flew upside down and fell on her back not far from the stool and the fire. Her tailbone landed on hard, rocky ground, followed by a bone crunch and a loud cry of pain.

“A-a!!! Fuck!!!”

The anchorite was surprised by such speed from a half-naked woman and quickly applied another spell to her, which this time temporarily absorbed 100 free cells in the inventory. It was a BURDEN spell that had the same magical effect as Selena's shackles (if she had moved far away from the mistress). Dolada had less than 100 empty slots in her inventory, so she was unable to move for the next ten seconds, although she could still move her arms and legs.

Meanwhile, the female necromancer, writhing in pain on the ground, hurried to drink a "strong healing potion". Feeling relieved, she immediately jumped to her feet. Her eyes were burning with anger. She couldn't remember anyone before managing to punch her so hard and throw her to the ground like a doll. She wanted revenge and swung the spiked mace with all her might.

Dolada found herself in a difficult situation. But her supply of various potions had not yet been depleted. And she drank a Dispel potion that removed magical effects. Thanks to this, when the female necromancer struck with all her might with a mace, Dolada managed to break away at the last moment and retreat a step. Not expecting such a maneuver, the necromancer missed and lost her balance. The heavy mace pulled her along and she fell to the ground.

Seeing the female necromancer lying in front of her, the Nord woman decided without any hesitation to attack her and raised her leg to stomp on her head and crush her head on the rocky ground. But in the meantime, the Anchorite did not stand idly by, unlike the shackled Selena, and did what necromancers usually do. He summoned the undead! A zombie appeared behind Dolada, looking like a decomposing corpse, and attacked her from behind.

Zombies in the world of Nirn were just animated corpses and, firstly, didn’t transmit any infection that turns a healthy person into a zombie, and secondly, they didn’t try to bite a person, but only hit him. At the moment when Dolada aimed her foot at the head of the fallen necromancer, the rotten zombie struck her a powerful slap right in the ear. The head of the Nord woman almost fell off her shoulders from a terrible blow, and her body, standing on one leg, plopped to the ground.

Then the Worm Anchorite also summoned another sample of the undead – a ghost that looked like an ethereal white legless human body. It always dealt magic damage, unlike a zombie going into close fight.

"Shit! I'm deaf!", Dolada screamed, but at the same time she did not hear her own voice because of the hum in her head. She quickly started to get to her feet, but fell down again due to dizziness.

Selena saw how the necromancer woman jumped up from the ground and somehow mysteriously created her clone! It was an unknown magic, creating a copy of the owner of the spell, fighting on his side. Dolada couldn’t believe her own eyes and thought that she had double vision after a knockdown received from a zombie hit. But then the female necromancer created two more copies of her own, and each of them had a spiked mace in her hand.

"Oh, shit! Things are bad...", - Selena thought with disappointment, seeing what a preponderance in strength on the side of necromancers, - "It was necessary to free my hands for a long time! I would have thrown a urinary bomb! I would have used a frost spell!"

"Ha! I warned you, stupid woman!" the Anchorite exclaimed triumphantly.

Four female necromancers with maces, a zombie and a ghost – they all rushed at Dolada, who was in a desperate rage. The Nords were a proud race, and she did not lose her fighting spirit in a hopeless situation. She rushed to attack, but at the same time decided that she would alternate attack and retreat so that numerous enemies would not surround her.

The first one on her way was a zombie who struck again with his hand. But Dolada ducked and crashed into him with a running start, like a bull. The zombie flew several meters away and, falling to the ground, rolled several times like a log.

The ghost threw an ice arrow at Dolada, from which the Nord woman was immune, as well as from any frosty attack. Then she kicked the ghost with her foot, which just passed through him like through a cloud, since the ghost was immune to any physical impact – even hand-to-hand, even with ordinary weapons. But then two female necromancers ran up to the cursed woman from both sides and struck at the same time with maces. Dodging one attack, Dolada could not avoid being hit by another mace, which hit her in the head in the area behind the ear.

"Wow! How cute!" - the Anchorite said with a smile.

After such a terrible wound, a stream of blood gushed out of Dolada's head, and she fell to the ground. But at the same time, she didn’t collapse senseless, and tried to quickly retreat and did a somersault on the ground. Twice more the spiked maces tried to hit her, but hit the frozen ground, as the Nord woman was nimbly tumbling on the ground, trying to get to her feet. Eventually, she got up and started running away from the enemies who were chasing her.

The worst of all was a stupid zombie, who had a bad orientation in space. He seemed to get confused and even went the wrong way until he rolled down the slope.

But the others–especially the four enraged female necromancers with maces–didn't lag behind and tirelessly struck. The Anchorite stood quietly not far from the tent and watched what was happening. Apparently he was looking after Selena, who was their main purpose of the visit. Despite all that Selena had suffered from Dolada, she didn’t want the necromancers to kill the Nord woman. Firstly, she didn’t want to fall into the necromancers hands, who hardly had good intentions, and, secondly, Dolada taught her a new spell, taught her the production of urinary bombs and, in general, was a contradictory but interesting person, as it seemed to Selena.

"Enough! Let's try to negotiate! Dolada has nothing against Molag Bal!" - Selena turned to the Anchorite, - "Don't kill her!"

"Shut up, slave!"

Suddenly, the necromancer took out a black bag from his robe and put it on the helpless Selena's head, after which he touched her and cast a spell of Paralyze. Having lost the feeling of her own body, she fell into a frightening dark abyss.

The sounds of battle, screams and shouts were the last thing that flashed before her fading light of consciousness…
