The Ebony Renegades (Skyrim)

chapter seventy four

The next morning when the sun rose the group proceeded with their usual chores, as they all prepared to inevitably move out again to leave their home and start living off in abandoned caves and ruins like they were before some of them had grown attached to the place however they all knew that they couldn't stay in one place too long. After a few minutes and eating breakfast Gentu finally emerged from his workshop carrying something wrapped in cloth before handing it to Sabrina. "I don't know how well they'll work so make sure you give them a test run before you take them into battle, and you tell me if there's any imperfections or flaws that need to be addressed." Gentu said calmly but full of seriousness as Sabrina unwrapped the cloth and then picked up one of the items running her hand along this smooth material of the weapon.

"I've also included the ammunition and the black powder with it as well, you should have plenty for at least a week as long as there isn't any heavy fire just make sure you use your ammo sparingly it'll take a little bit to make more, I also weighted the handle so they can be used as a bludgeoning weapon in an emergency." Gentu said as Sabrina twirled the weapon in her hand before cocking the hammer back. "Be careful that things chambered now, if you pull that trigger it will fire don't point it at anybody take it downstairs and into the testing room I'm quite curious how it will perform." Gentu said as Sabrina nodded and the rest of the group followed close behind curious to see these new weapons in action. Once they were down in the training field underground on the other side of Gentu's workshop where he tested out his wrist mounted arquebus so it was perfect to test out the experimental weapon and since it belonged to Sabrina she was the one who was going to test fire them. " all right Sabrina listen close, point your arm straight out that's holding your weapon and then bring your other hand up and cup your hand and make sure you hold it with both hands I don't know how much it's going to kick." Sabrina listened except proceeded to fire it with one hand when she squeezed the trigger and the hammer went down a sound of sizzling could be heard before the weapon discharged laying out a puff of smoke out the front and hitting the human shaped hay target with zero recoil.

Sabrina smiled wickedly before pulling out her other weapon and began to fire them both together hitting the hay target right where the target's eyes would be and then fired once more right between the target's legs. "Gentu I love these things, show me how to reload them!" Sabrina said excitedly jumping up and down like a child given a new toy as Gentu walked her through how to quickly reload her weapon. "All right first you take the black powder from the horn and you pour it down the barrel a little bit then you put the metal ball in, then you take the ramrod underneath the barrel and then you pack the black powder down then you put the ramrod back in its holder after that you cock the hammer back and you point it at your target and you pull the trigger however this method requires both hands however if you're quick you can do it in about four to five seconds." Gentu explained as Sabrina followed the steps with both of her weapons uncomfortably getting used to the motions but after a while she got used to it and started doing it at rapid speeds. "Well shit it looks like Sabrina likes her new toys, I guess this means we're going to be busy buying and mining lots and lots of iron" Gentu said with a chuckle as Sabrina put both of her new weapons behind her back with their handles jolting out outwards for rapid deployment. "Asadelf, please help me enchant these bad girls, I want them wipe out my enemies hahaha!!!" Sabrina yelled with the glee as Asadelf smiled and nodded as the group walked up towards the elevator with Gentu following close behind as they returned to the dining room to eat their breakfast surprisingly breakfast is still warm despite the small interruption but the manic creepy smile Sabrina had was worth it however it did make the group slightly nervous that she was twirling the two side arms in her hands like a professional despite getting them barely five minutes ago. "Sabrina could you please stop twirling those things what if you accidentally fire them and hit one of them, would that make us holy crusaders hahaha!!!!" Suvvan shouted to know when surprise stuffing his face with more cheese. "All the craziness aside, does anyone else have anything to report how's your personal growth coming?" Ebon-shi asked crossing his fingers and resting his chin on his hands like he usually did. "Well I've been practicing that portal magic that Tolfdir taught me in Winterhold I can open up a portal short distances with a group about a mile away so from about from our position to the other side of the bog by dark water crossing for from here to the dwarven ruin where you guys were recently that big gap would be more than efficient to put some distance between us and here this way we can make it look like we were never here we could also use it too lead a false trail breadcrumbs to leave any pursuers astray." Asadelf said with a smile as the group nodded in understanding as Severin spoke up. "I've been training with my new kama and kusarigama lately and I believe I have mastered them I cannot guarantee perfect results but I can guarantee you anyone that's within ten feet of me I can take out with rapid succession." Severin said crossing his arms before continuing. "Also, me and Shadow-step have increased our endurance and we can hold a combination of muffle and invisibility spell for over five minutes now." Severin said as Shadow-step nodded in confirmation. "Oh check out what I can do now, I can summon us some more backup hahaha!" Suvvan shouted before conjuring a single golden saint warrior and a dark seducer warrior.
