Elder Blood Witcher 69 Saga Of The Ass Stabber Continues!

He tries to make it stretch and form shapes but he ends up burning his hand after concentrating on it too hard... Looks like he'll need an actual teacher to learn to use this thing. And the Laurentius's parting words, "It's apart of myself". If that isn't ominous he doesn't know what is.

After he has the flame hibernating again him and Solaire leave to descend further into the sewers... Reima is dreading it, the stench from up here is already unbearable.

Reima "You got a miracle that stops this place smelling like s.h.i.+t?"

Solaire shakes his head gravely, "Sadly not."

When the reach the actual sewer tunnels they spot an absolutely huge rat! It looks the size of a large van and seems very angry with the two undeads for apparently just existing. Luckily it's behind thick bars which halts it's attack on them, they leave through the next door and stumble across around 20 rats eating faeces or something. They seem to hear the two approach as they start creepily scurrying towards them, teeth chattering as they do.

Despite being knee deep in s.h.i.+t water Solaire decides to launch a lightning bolt at them which deal with the problem while also shocking both undeads. He looks at Reima sheepishly before apologising for overreacting, something tell him that Solaire isn't good with rats.

He loots all of the rats dropped humanity before taking the great-axe that someone apparently left down here.

They circle round the tunnels until they see the giant rat through another set of bars, Reima collects the key lying deep within a pile of waste before they continue. They enter a large s.p.a.cious area that seems to be some sort of wall? Reima has no idea what it is supposed to defend against so he asks Solaire.

Solaire "I think this was to be the last defence in the war against the demons of Izalith, if the negotiations between the demons and Lord Gwyn fell through then this would be a good point to defend."

Reima "Kinda amusing to think about those s.h.i.+ny silver knights wading through s.h.i.+t to fight demons huh?"

Solaire "Indeed, it must be very amusing to fight for your lord despite the horrible conditions!" He misinterprets Reima's words which causes his fighting spirit to burn brightly.

They step onto the wall and dodge a couple of soul arrows shot by a channeler who somehow found it's way down here.

Reima blocks the shots with Quen as Solaire charges and slashes at it, having the sense to evade, the channeler teleports a few meters away before unleas.h.i.+ng what looks to be a soul spear at Solaire.

Reima doesn't know how well Solaire would receive this attack and so blinks in-front of him, casting the Heliotrope Sign. A ripple appears in the s.p.a.ce where he points his hand and the Soul Spear impacts it, the spear disappears and Reima is left standing there with his arm outstretched...

Reima "Rather anti-climactic..." he mutters as he glances at the channeler who seems shocked at his defence.

Solaire charges past Reima while shouting "Jolly cooperation!" and finally finishes the annoying channeler.

They dispatch most of the remaining rats from the wall and collect the loot before stepping back into the sewers, there are a number of pa.s.sageways but most of them contains trap holes in the floor that drop you directly in-between large groups of basilisks that will probably instantly kill you...

Luckily Reima knows the path to the correct area, which unfortunately contains the giant rat... They turn right, left and continue. Solaire wants to chase a rat that tries to lead them to a trap but Reima is not having any of it. After they reach the end of the hallway they turn right again and enter the giant rats domain... Probably should have warned Solaire due to the squeak he hears him make when he spots the giant rat...

Solaire "En-EnGarde you abomination!" he stutters slightly before calming himself and preparing for combat.

Reima "Don't worry, we got this." he says to Solaire as they both roll away from the giant rats charge... Rolling is the thing Reima least wanted to do due to the floor being literally covered in s.h.i.+t, but right now it's rolling in s.h.i.+t or being mauled by a giant rat.

Solaire casts sunlight blade which covers his sword in lightning before stabbing the giant rats fat behind causing it to shudder and try to turn around.

Reima slashes at it's hideous face preventing it from counter attacking Solaire, it tries to s.h.i.+ft it's weight into Reima but finds that he is not moving an inch. Reima flexes his muscles to prevent the rat moving, he grabs a fist full of it's mangy fur to keep it still for Solaire's a.s.sault. It's front paw scratches him on his side which causes poison to enter his system but he resists due to him being a Witcher and having resist against poisons due to the Arch-griffin mutagen.

Reima "Solaire hurry up!" he shouts as he gets clawed again but it's dirty sewage covered limbs.

This continues for what feels like forever until the rat finally shudders and stops moving...

Reima is absolutely covered in scratches from the rat and immediately downs half his Estus flask to try to shut the wounds and not allow any more sewage to come into contact with them.

Solaire struts up to him with not a single wound...

Solaire "What a great hunt my friend! We should find another and rid the world of such beasts!"

Reima "Speak for yourself... You didn't have to hold it in place while your buddy took his time stabbing it's a.s.s... I now name thee Slow Rat-a.s.s stabber!"

He grumbles and tries to wipe himself off from the sewage covering him as Solaire tries to apologise.
