Ssh!
Being sshed with water woke Legs up, again.
Struggling a bit in the special chair where he was strapped, Legs'' eyes soon cleared up enough for him to see the familiar unusually huge Skyrim.
Staring deep into his eyes like he was looking for the truth hidden in there, this Skyrim let his Grade B energy loose as he questioned for the umpteenth time.
"Who are you?"
"…" Legs stared at him.
This was when his game interface lit up another notification.

Seeing him loose focus while he questioned him, this powerful Skyrim warrior fought the urge to explode in anger as he unleashed a crisp resounding p to his cheeks that forced him fully awake.
"You look at me when I ask you questions!" His face was stern.
The p was stinging but Legs'' face remained nonchnt, he fought the pain as a lot of things went through his mind.
Till now, he was still baffled.
''If I am not wrong, this is definitely the Skyrim King''.
''Where did I go wrong? How was I busted?''
''I made sure to be careful and to always cover my tracks''.
''Well, that is not important, what is even more important is that the Cosmic Cataclysm already started. Whatever I want to do, I need to do it fast''.
''Where is Edgar and Heimdall? Are they even still alive?''
Different ns and contingency ns flowed through his head but he soon scrapped them all, none of them were practical enough to his satisfaction.
If he wanted, by straining his body to get a simple tap on his gray apple tattoo, he could escape to the gray world but the question was, then what?
He was still far from achieving his goals foring to Austere, and even if he was, the Cataclysmmencing already changed his ns.
He finally changed his mind. ''Let me listen to his questions this time''.
Finally getting his focus, the Skyrim warrior secretly heaved a sigh of relief. "Who are you?"
"What is your motive foring to Austere?"
"How are you able to manipte the Undying warriors?"
"Where are you from?" He narrowed his eyes threateningly.<novelsnext></novelsnext>
Looking into the eyes of this Skyrim warrior, the warrior intended to read his thoughts but ironically, he was the one who read the Skyrim King''s thoughts through his eyes, he smirked secretly. ''You''re not skilled enough to read me bro''.
''My game interface indicates that the civil war is still on''.
''As it is, I am the only one who can stop it''.
''Perhaps, I can use this and their desperation to end the civil war to my advantage?'' His eyes gleamed.
''Perhaps, that is the main reason why they went to such lengths to capture me''. He added one and two together in his mind, then he came to a crazy conclusion and n. ''In the end, my brain alwayse to the rescue''.
''It''s now or never''.
Without taking his gaze away from the Skyrim King, he adjusted himself in the chair to look morefortable then he dropped a bomb nonchntly.
"I can save Austere from the apocalypse beasts".
"…" The Skyrim King froze.
He was confused. "What?"
-----
You have essed your game inventory!
----
Like Legs expected, his storage ring was already confiscated but he had another storage that his captors had no idea of, the game inventory.
As soon as he essed it, he pulled out a pencil.
As soon as it appeared, he grabbed it with his teeth before throwing it at his right arm, right at where his gray apple tattoo was. The pointed end of the pencil touched his tattoo, then the next moment, the inexplicable happened.
Bzzz!
Legs disappeared!
"…!" The Skyrim King was rmed.
Talking into hism, hemunicated with his allies as they arrived at different rming conclusions. Before he could leave though, something even more inexplicable and shocking this time happened.
Bzzz!
The captive was back and he was no longer bound.
Legs sat cross-legged with a pipe on his mouth, he took a suck and puffed out the smoke. "Like I said, I can save Austere from the Apocalypse beasts".
"All I need is an audience with you and the Human King".
"We need to negotiate terms".
The Skyrim King looked at him with horror. "What did you do?"
Legs smirked. "A little trick to prove a point to you".
2 minutester, Legs was seated in a room with the 2 strongest individuals in Austere, the Skyrim King and the Human King.
"Stop the Civil War". The ck human said to him with a stern look on his face, the Human King was a Mechanical Pugilist.
Legs smiled. "I will stop it if we cane to terms".
"What terms?" From his tone, his personality was clearly a fiery one.
Legs smiled on hearing that. "At this point, you both should know that you have only a few decades left to live before the apocalypse beasts run you all over".
"What if I propose that I can help you save your?"
"…" Both Kings narrowed their eyes.
Legs'' smile widened. "Of course, it''s not without a prize".
"In exchange, I need your help to fight a powerful enemy".
"What if we refuse?" The Skyrim King asked.
"Well, I look for other allies. Afterall, it''s not me fighting a Civil War or is being faced with the threat of extinction soon".
"You''re our prisoner!" The Human King''s voice boomed.
"Not anymore". Legs raised his hands for him to see with a smile.
Legs looked at the both of them seriously. "Since you both don''t have much time before your is gone, I will tell you my n".
"It''s a simple trade by batter win-win subject, you help me, I help you".
"This is my n…"
By the time that Legs finished exining his n, both Kings were bbergasted. "Y-you really are a warrior from another?"
The tone at which the Human King asked this really left one thinking what horrifying exaggerations Legs told them, he no longer sounded like the captor here or a negotiator at all, he instead sounded like a believer.
A believer that had been indoctrinated into a certain belief.
"So, what are your decisions?" Legs looked at them with a smile.
"…" The Human King turned to look at the Skyrim King.
"Well, if what you say is true, then our fates our intertwined".
"We are willing to be allies for our future".
Legs grinned. "It''s nice working with you".
His virtual game interface lit up.
