Chapter 187 - Filler Chapter: Securing perimeter - Part 2

As Fiona, Marcus and more knights are staying on their positions, prepared to attack at any time, they look on the dark sky, at the moment where the three strongest knights of Kingdom of Romania are jumping on the action cleaning the way for them to advance and took Big Father as a prisoner.

Fiona is thinking, of the things Marcus mentioned earlier while he was using his God powers to see through the walls of that building, about the assassins there. How can there be only nine assassins on the whole building, while there is Big Father and a demon. Doesn't that show to be a trap planned by them, or it is just a dumb move played by them? Fiona looks at one of their commander, she walks slowly to them, and she asks them a question she had on her mind earlier.

"Are we sure this ain't a trap to them?"

"What do you mean, Fiona?" asks the commander looking at her, not feeling intimidated by her presence or being three centimeters taller.

"Think about it. How come there are fewer assassins who guard them, and they are just there, chatting and doing their business. This doesn't smell good to me."

"Oh. Knight Fiona. This is my decision." says the commander with a grin on his face. "I am a noble, and you are a peasant, so, don't tell me I have to do my job. And we are following the King orders, not yours dirty knight." he looks at the battlefield, and ignores Fiona.

She was about to take her sword out, and slain that stain of the Kingdom, but if she would've done that, the King would have thrown her into the jail, or worse, executed by the public and nobles demands. She decided to leave it be this way.

As soon as these three knights got into the building, the knights observes a flare rising into the sky, which is the signal, and the ambush must begin. Everyone took their weapons out. Mages took their wands, or staff, or their spell book. Knights took their weapons who are using it for close range, or bows and arrows. Commanders are jumping on their horses and take the lead of the squads, leading them to the houses where the action will begin.

Fiona and with Marcus, are in those squads, they are tagging along with their commander, being at a few meters from his behind as they run together to the building. While they are running, Fiona took her giant sword, and she wields with her arms. Marcus takes his two axes and holds them into his hands. He rage as he runs to the building, together with the other knights.

***

A few moments later, all of these knights entered the building, and as they got there, they see a disturbing thing. The three knights, are nailed into the walls of the building, while eight bodies, most likely of those assassins are laid on the floor, all killed. The knights were shocked to see the three strongest knights of the kingdom, being nailed and with blood dripping from all holes they've got. Amadeus got at least ten holes into his upper body, two on the legs and one at the belly. Nathan got at least twelve holes, only on the both of his arms and one big hole into his upper body. But, the other knight, got it worse, and that one, has nine holes into her head, her eyes and mouth are dropping blood. The warrior Ana, also known as The Archer of Henedora.

Fiona drops her sword as she looks at the bodies of the knights, she doesn't know that Amadeus and Nathan are still alive, she, as all the warriors from Kingdom of Romania present there, they think both of them are dead.

As some were looking at the bodies, Marcus looks at the people who have done this. He is shocked, and frozen as he sees the creature who was able to took down three strongest knights of Kingdom of Romania. The creature who've done this is no human, nor a semi-human, not even a human-demon, it is a demon. And this demon it is exactly like Marcus described it earlier, and this demon, is looking angrily at us.

"You mortals! Dare to kill Big Father, and try to escape from my wrath!?"

As he said this, Fiona and with other knights, took a peak to the floor, and they see the body of Big Father decapitated, his limbs cut from his entire body and started to melt. Fiona almost dropped her blade, and before she would be able to look at the demon, one of the foolish commander, decides to be the hero, and he charges to the demon.

"You waste." says the Demon taking his sword from the back, and cutting that commander in half without hesitation.

As the commander got cut, with his horse, the other commanders proceeded to tremble and drop their weapons. One of them even abandoned their horse and jumped on the ground, on his knees, demanding mercy and to forgive them. But the demon, as he saw that commander doing this, he slapped the ground, transforming the noble commander into what a bug becomes after he got caught.

Now, the knights are looking at the demon, who is angry, and he holds his sword. All of them are shaking and froze there. But, as soon as the demon was about to do one step forward, Marcus goes ahead, topless and with his tattoo glowing a blue light.

"Would you look at that." says the demon with a smirk on his face as he looks at Marcus tattoo. "A God vessel."

"Marcus?" asked Fiona looking shocked at Marcus. "What does he say by a God's vessel?"

"Fiona... And everyone." says Marcus as his lights proceed to become much more lighter. "This is my fight."

And some knights, left Marcus, and the commander to, but Fiona, is standing there, not even thinking to leave this place without his best friend.
