I couldn't really see who that person was, all I could decipher was that it was a woman, but I was desperate and desperate people called for desperate measures.
"Please, these LUNATICS are trying to kill me"
I begged the person to help me but she instead asked me a question in an almost interrogative tone
"And why are they hunting you down?" I quickly pleaded again
"I beat some criminals and now they brought reinforcements".
She looked at me eyes full of interest as, its probably wondering how do i manage to mess with the criminal and caus myself chased by around 30
"fine then let me help you"
The person finally came out from the shadows of the alleyway revealing that person to be a very tall woman, towering over me, and she looked strong enough to break bones, her hair was a flowing cascade of silver-white, she was rough looking with scars that she probably got from fighting.
She doesn't look like she came from the slums since she has long coat of deep dark brown which fell almost to her boots,her shirt a white cravat, dark gloves, and has trousers, she also wore a tricorn hat with a golden emblem or even some kind of medal, very different from the recycled and stitched together clothes people of the slums have.
But not long after that conversation, the large group of criminals managed to find me, because there were a lot of them. I started to panic again because no way we are winning right?, but she seemed calm, awfully calm. In my mind I started doubting her and thinking she was just an overconfident Nobel.
But before I could think of anything else she suddenly dashed at the criminals. In the blink an eye I found myself seeing one of the criminals from the group had been lifted up by the neck by her with almost zero effort, she then throwed the criminal at the others to be used as projectile to hit other to those criminals, the other criminal scast a whole buncha projectile spells but she casted something and a shield appeared to protect her and the projectiles bounced off akin to throwing a rock at a shield.
I was stunned because this was the first time I saw somebody this strong in front of my eyes, and she seemed calm and calculated and seemingly not taking this very seriously, it seemed almost boring to her,she was near untouchable, trowing people like its mere ragdolls, peoples who became victim of her spell it injured badly, and peoples got hit by her physical somehow end up worse than the one by her spell so one by one the members of the criminal group got taken out like it was no big deal.
" THAT'S INSANE "
I screamed to myself in my heart.
After things cleared up she said to me "go home, your no longer hunted"
but after a few seconds I said back
"Woman they practically broke my legs how in God's green earth am I supposed to get back"
she looked, chuckled then said
"you probably just strained your leg by how fast your bolted"
then i reply after she said that
"what if really BROKE my legs"
She look at me like I was a moron then said
"then you probably cant even move your legs"
she then paused in disbelief of the fact i really belief i broke my legs
"you know what if you really broke you legs then your already screaming right now"
After hearing her reply i wanna argue but i decided to not to so she wont remember me as an absolute MORON of a human being then i reply
"fine fine i believe you"
i stand up with a pretty difficult because my legs hurted but i gather the guts to do soo, cause this woman in front of me is way better at magic and stronger, since i want to me a strong mage i asked her
"I know we just meet by coincidence but i beg you.."
i take a breathe to stay myself calm because am willing to prove her and plead for it, this way the probably the only chance i have in order to make my dream real and to reach it in my palm..
"i BEG you to teach me magic"
