Chapter 27: Intercepted

"Impressive. But let's see what good your regeneration is against this!" (Saphiel)

Driving his blade into the ground the general then lifted both hands towards the sky. His powerful white wings allowing him to ascend. Sensing the powerful magic accumulating around the general Lilium changed all of her blood tools into large round shields. However they were no match for what came next. Hundreds of spears made of light appeared above Lilium. Without warning they rained down upon her. For every one she dodged or blocked, two hit her. 

Suddenly a scream erupted from Lilium. When she looked down she knew it was over. Her heart had been pierced. The light spears suddenly stopped. The general slowly strode towards her. His sword in hand he raised it so as to end her. However behind him Lilium saw the rest of the commanders. Knowing at the very least they could repel him she had a smile on her face.

"You lost." (Lilium)

Then the blow came.

"What happened to the other commanders?" (Gernam)

Lilium shrugged.

"At this point your guess is as good as mine. I haven't had any contact with the guild sense my death." (Lilium)

The pair walked together silently with Habbron following a good distance behind so as to give the two some privacy. After a short while Lilium broke the silence. A grin stretching across her face.

"So, Lucifer, when did you start going exclusively by the family name?" (Lilium Gernam)

The lich shot her a glare.

"You know why. And I'll know if you tell anyone. So I better not hear Darren mention my first name. For he won't be the one to face the repercussions." (Lucifer Gernam)

The usually empty eye sockets of the lich flashed red. Lilium shivered and shrunk back. Though she was powerful she was but a candle to a bonfire when compared to her brother when he was serious.

After another five minutes of walking they came across a full metal door. The only feature on the door was the simple handle. The siblings looked at each other. With a nod Lilium kicked open the door. In a moment a dwarf covered in blood wielding a battle axe and covered in blood, charged out swinging blindly. Lilium moved in to strike him down but Gernam intercepted and caught both her fist and the dwarfs axe.

"NIGEL CALM YOURSELF!" (Gernam)

The dwarf was breathign heavily. Adrenaline pumping through his body. Gernam leaned to the side to peer into the cell. Blood was everywhere. The two would be torturers used to paint the room sanguine.

"What happened?" (Gernam)

A grin appeared on the dwarf's face.

"The bastards unbound me to try to put me in that torture chair. They thought i was still out of it. So when one of them go to close I hit his head so hard with mine he musta been seein stars for a little while. I then took his axe and used to mince his friend. By the time he came to it was already to late for him." (Nigel)

Gernam looked at his friend in disbelief. He never would have guessed his simple friend capable of such brutality.

"Hoho someone had a party." (Darren)

Nigel and Gernam's  group turned to see Darren and his group. The scientist waved at his friends. Looking at Nigel he gave a relieved smile.

"Glad to see your okay." (Darren)

Urvos looked at the blood covered dwarf and then at the room behind him. 

"This is why I stopped taking you hunting with me." (Urvos)

"It's fine rocks were more fun to smash anyway. HAHA" (Nigel)

The dwarves shared a hearty laugh. 

"Ready to go?" (Darren)

Everyone nodded in affirmation. Nigel then lifted his staff and uttered something incomprehensible. A black portal opened up in front of the group.

The group then entered one by one leaving behind a destroyed facility.
