Lily was pinned on the bed by the prince and he said in a low hungry voice "What is your mission tough?".
Lily's guard fell, she slowly asked "What do you mean my lord?".
"I know a spy when I see one, did you take me as a fool", he said as I pull out a dagger from under the bed and put its tip just on top of her eyes.
"You're right I underestimated you", she said in a serious and cold tone then she headbutted him and twisted her body to the side and swung her delicate legs to kick him.
"aghhhh…. You damn girl", he groaned as he swung the dagger towards her.
She dodged it by rolling to the side and pushed herself off the bed and kicked his face.
He stumble backwards a few steps then rushed forward and in a straight movement pierced her leg.
"Ahhh", she screamed and fell back on the bed.
"I will keep you alive don't worry baby girl", he said laughing menacingly.
A loud clang screeched the room as the guard who brought Lily hit the prince's head with hilt of a katana.
"Let me handle it commander", the guard said in mocking tone as he pulled the dagger out of lily's leg and shoved a bandage on her face.
"Brute moron, it wasn't my fault Geld was late to save commander", she said in annoyance and groaned as she took the bandage and started wrapping it around her wound.
The guard unwrapped his mask and showed his sharp jawline and a well trimmed full beard.
"What now commander didn't anyone the plan after this point", she asked curiously.
"If you don't know, how will anyone else know", he said as he tied up the prince's hands and legs with chains and hang him off the golden chandelier.
"Ehhh! what do you mean by that Ali", she said in an annoyed voice and threw a pillow at him.
"Well!, your lovey dovey is not so secret you know", he said and threw the pillow back at her face.
"Shut up moron!!", she shouted grabbing the attention of guards outside.
The door broke up and the guards who were standing outside came inside and one of them used a spell to send a huge sound wave alerting everyone in castle.
"Well lily start preparing your explanation already", Ali said as he jumped into air and took out his katana and slit throat of a guard and sat down to dodge the swing of the other guard.
An arrow pierced the head of the other guard which lily shot using magic and started whining.
Soldiers filled the halls and a whole battalion rushed out to the garden and spotted the dead bodies of the assigned guards and the intruders in dark hoods.
The soldiers charged at the intruders with their battle hammers and slam the ground and walls as the intruders dodge the sheer strength complimented by the mana bursts by magic enhancements break everything in their way.
One of the intruder shouts into his bracelet "Commander the general is here too",
The general of the empire was a middle aged man with a body that can put even young body builders in shame, bald head face with no wrinkles and arms filled with popped veins.
He held an enormous hammer etched with runes and a big mana stone.
"Ashen Knights huh!, where is your commander puny underlings?", he said in a heavy and loud voice almost a battle cry.
"You can't even stand up to commander why not fight someone on your level", an man said in excited and light voice as he fell on his knees in front of the general.
"Sir Kasimh", the intruders whispered in a low hum.
Kasimh was built like a tank, tall body, muscular arms, tight chest and veins on his neck and arms.
A black sturdy looking gauntlet was around his forearms and wrists.
"You must be the man who is rumoured to have lifted an entire building", the general said in a excited tone.
"Come at me!", the general shouted and swung his giant hammer at Kasimh, he ducked to dodge the attack and punched the general a few feet back.
The general stood on his feet and hopped in the air and threw his hammer at kasimh.
"What are you morons waiting for attack", Kasimh shouted at the hooded Ashen Knights.
The hooded knights started engaging with the soldiers of kingdom of hammer, tough they're at a disadvantage as the strong hammers can easily block and break their swords.
Kasimh hits the general on the base of the spine making his scream and swing his giant hammer at him sending Kasimh flying back and hit the castle wall.
Arman and Geld moved through the halls as geld kept swinging his hammer breaking skulls and decorations along the hall as Arman looked at a holographic map of the dungeon beneath the castle.
"Left from here", Arman said to Geld.
"Commander, what are we searching for again", Geld said in a tired voice.
"Arch Mage Pristine!", He said in a cold voice and point at the big metal doors with transparent tubes flowing with liquid mana.
"That beautiful goddess with unmatched beauty and most powerful magic in the Hammer Empire", Geld said in a shocked tone.
"Yes!", Arman said with a sigh, geld looked at him and in an excited voice he replied "What business do we have with that goddess?".
"Ask her a single question", Arman said and punched the big door making a loud thud but the door didn't even dent.
Geld poured all his strength and mana into his hammer and smashed the door making a huge dent and shaking the door off its hinges a bit but it still stood tall.
Geld sat on the floor and gasped loudly, his breathe shaking as he looked up to see the door still solid and standing.
Outside the castle the garden had huge craters due to the battle between Kasimh and the general, both of them bloody and gasping as their hands tremble.
Suddenly the clouds around the castle start drifting towards it in a circular path, as the clouds clash into each other making a miniature cyclone, a large bolt lightning shot down the castle followed by a ear deafening thunder.
"Ali look at that", lily said to him as the lightning bolt broke the multiple ceiling through the castle, making huge holes and explosion,
At the dungeon Geld heard the explosion above and shouted "Commander Dodge".
"Thunder devastation", Pristine's voice echoed in the hall.
The Thick bolt of lightning tore the ceiling fell directly on Arman.
