《Deck of Cards》Attack on Fortress part 2
Advertisement
In a bedroom, two people are laying on the bed and another person is looking at the sleeping man, before covering his mouthed with his left hand. The man immediately wakes up and starts to struggle, as Echo is holding him down. He looks at Echo, who puts his finger in front of his lips and sushes him. He then points to the woman next to her and then makes a slicing motion in front of his throat, to show that she will die, If he screams.
The man slightly nods his head and Echo takes his hand off, while holding a dagger above his heart.
"Under which Demon Lord you work for?"He asks him in a Demolion or Demon Language.
"Ira."he replies immediately. He knows that If he answers truthfully and immediately, he won't be hurt.
"Where is Acedia?"Echo asks him
"I don't know."he replies, while starting to sweat some more.
"Who knows?"
"Luxuria and Ira."
"Where is Ira?"
"I-i don't know. She is always moving, so she doesn't have a exact home."he replies.
Echo sees that he has told the truth, so he asks some more."Okay. Where is Luxuria?"
"Only Xeeht knows."
"Where is Xeeht?"Echo asks him in a cold tone this time, as the two have history. Even right now, he uses Xeeht knife, to interrogate the commander.
"He only appears, when Luxuria commands him. There is no other way to find him."The commander replies to him.
"Thanks."Echo says and stabs him into the heart, killing him immediately. He then pulls the dagger out and starts cleaning the blade, while talking to himself"Can't leave anyone alive. I don't need him to tell others about our conversation."
Echo also could have questioned him for locations of other commanders, but that would have been pointless. To get to his target, he has to find Luxuria, who could only be found through Xeeht, who only listens to Luxuria. Ira is out of the question, because finding her will take much longer time. So Luxuria it is. Also, if other places were to be taken over demons, he would earn more money, when he is send there.
But for now, he has to make it look like there was a fight, because just a stab will immediately draw suspicions on himself. So first he picks up the commanders body, throws it against the wall, cracking it a little. Then he proceeds to trash the place and he picks up the commanders sword. He unsheats it and cuts his arm a little, showing that there was a fight. He then walks over the commander and puts the sword in his hands, while leaving the sheath behind. Echo then beats the body a few times and gives a few more stabs, before leaving the body alone.

Now he walks over the woman, who was sleeping against him and picks her up and smashes her face into the wall. He then stabs her a few more times. The woman herself was killed before he started his interrogation. Now the entire place looks like he had no other choice, but to kill both of them.
"Good."Echo mutters, but then he hears the alarm bell ringing outside.
"How? We captured the bell.... Someone killed the tower team."he comes to the conclusion.
"Fuck."he mutters and starts to look around the room. He then starts to hear footsteps coming towards this room.
"Oh for fuck sakes."he mutters and looks at the window. He sighs and starts to run towards the open window. He steps onto the rail, before jumping off of it.
"Ooooohh Fuuuuuck!"he yells, as he looks down, to see a group of demons there.
"Is that...Echo?"One of the Hero Archers ask, when he sees a figure falling down towards the ground.
"[Ground Slam]"Echo quickly chants, before crashing into the ground, sending out a massive shockwave, which pushes all the demons around him away. The ground itself shattered and flew all around the area. Most of the demons were killed by the shockwave and the rest were killed by the flying pieces of the ground.
As for Echo, he is on all fours on the ground and coughing a little...But he has no time for that for now. He gets up and starts to fight.
But ne of the demons had survived, gotten up and started running towards him with a sword pointing towards him. Echo himself waited for the right time to evade the sword and then punch his left hand through the demon chest. Now the only thing holding the demon was Echos hand, before he pulled his hand out, letting the body drop into the floor. Echo himself held the demons heart on his hands, which slowed down with each beat. He stared at the heart and when it finally stopped beating, he crushed it and dropped it onto the floor.
"Okay. We have two hundred fucks incoming! So prepare!"Echo yells, while walking over the corpses.
"Hey Echo. What the hell happened. Why the bell rung?"Chris asks him and Echo replies"Don't know. Probably the other three failed their job."
He stretches a little, while listening to the nearing footsteps. The steps got a lot closer and then a giant see demon bursts through the door, destroying both the door and the doorway.
The demon himself was about five meters tall with red skin, three horns and with a lot of sharp bones sticking out of his body. Behind him, the other demons follow with a loud battle cry.

"The big guy is mine."Echo says, before throwing his card towards the giant demon. Before anyone could reply, Echo had already blinked to the demons shoulder.
"HRAAAAAAAAA!!!"the giant demon roars, as he tries to grab Echo on his shoulders with his big hands. So to stay onto the demons shoulder, Echo grabs one of the horns with his right hand and pulls his dagger out of the sheath with his left. He then tries to cut the demon, but the skin is so strong and thick, that it doesn't cut into the skin. He could try to stab him, but there would be a risk of shattering the dagger and he doesn't want that. He needs to return it into Xeehts guts as a revenge.
So he sheaths the dagger and starts punching the top of the demons head with his left hand. He hears the skill slowly cracking and so he continues.
While Echo was dealing with the giant demon, the other heroes and soldiers were fighting with the demons. The archers and mages provided support from the walls. Swords were clashing, arrows were flying, spells were chanted and blood was flying everywhere. Screams of both demons and humans could be heard, as they were killing each other.
Aa for Echo, he finally cracked the skull, but the demon still didn't go down and his strength seemed to rise not fall. Echo couldn't penetrate the skin with his 'claws'.
"Fucking hell."he muttered, as it started to be a lot harder to stay on the demon. He looked around and came up with an idea.
He tightened the grip on the horn with his right hand and then punched the same horn with his left hand. And with a single punch, he broke the horn off, causing the demon to let out a loud roar.
Now he quickly started to stab the top of the demons head, until he got it stuck into the head. But still, the demon was on his legs and roaring.
"Fucking hell."he mutters again and then slams his left fist st the horn, pushing it deep into the demons skull. Finally the demon stops yelling and struggling. He slowly drips around and then slams onto the ground, launching Echo off of his.
Echo rolls a few times, before getting back onto his feet and pushing his hair out of his face. He then looks at his left hand and sees it completely covered with red blood, belonging to demons.
Up in the bell tower, the back stabbing demon is looking at the scene and when he sees Echo killing the demon, he mutters"Fucker. He took down goliath. Shit. This shouldn't have happened. Huuuh. I need to think up a new plan."
His plan was ruined now, because the Goliath was dead. Goliath was supposed to kill those heroes or at least some of them, but instead only he got killed because of that one hero.
"I know...I shall leave the surviving group now."he decides to do that, because there is no way to sneak out of here now. Someone will notice him and will try to kill him. So for now, he will just watch and wait for the winner.
Back on the ground, the heroes were having a hard time. Two more heroes had fallen and a dozen or so soldiers had also died. As for demons, there were over sixty left. Half of the heroes, who were still alive, were injured and weakened. Evelyn herself couldn't cast spells fast enough to heal everyone. Her mana pool was starting to get low too.
As for Echo, he started to feel a little tiredness. He only had five cards left and his mana pool was also starting to get low.
"Fucking hell."he muttered as he ripped of a guys head. Be then started to run towards the other demon, that was running towards him...But then, everything stop.
Both the demons and humans stopped. All of the sounds just stopped. Everyone was stopped, expected Echo, who was still able to move. He looked around, with a confused face.
"Why can I still move?"he asked himself and then, a female voice answered"Because I allow you."
He turns to where he heard the voice and sees a woman in black armor without helmet. Her face is beautiful and she has a long thin scar running down the left side of her face. She has black eyes and a long black hair. Her skin is tanned, like Echos.
"Who are you?"he asks her.
"I am Ira, The Demon Lord of Wrath."
