Five more soldiers came into the room. Mara attempted a grab at the first one but he grabbed her arm and brought his sword down only to miss as she slipped from his grasp and moved back. The second soldier charged at Mara, who took him down with a kick to the knee, snapping at as she brought the other hoof around, connecting it to his head. She continued into a low spin sweeping the third soldier’s feet out from underneath him. The fourth soldier slashed Mara’s back, but in doing so got too close to her head. She dove backwards, goring him in the chest with her horns. The last soldier nicked her leg with a jab before jumping backwards, dodging a deadly kick. The three surviving soldiers regrouped and charged together. One of the soldier got too far ahead of the others and tripped, falling straight into a kick that snapped his head backwards. She ducked underneath the other two soldiers, sustaining minor cuts to her right and left shoulders. One of the soldiers tried to jump backwards but slipped on a puddle of blood, landing far enough away to be out of Mara’s range. The other soldier jabbed at Mara’s chest. She side-stepped slightly late, earning her a nick to the side of her chest. She grabbed the soldier’s head and quickly snapped it. The remaining soldier had some difficulty getting up, which earned him a knock-out kick to the head. She retrieved Robert’s halberd from the steps and noticed a soldier trying to make off with the weapon that they needed. She threw the halberd at the soldier, which hit him so hard that it pierced straight through his back and out his chest. The soldier fell forward and stopped halfway as the tip of the halberd jammed deep into the floor. Mara retrieved the mystery weapon and pulled the halberd out of the floor. The soldier’s body slid down until it become stuck in the axe-head. Mara put her hoof on the body and pushed hard as she pulled on the halberd. It took a few tries until the body finally ripped apart from the shear force.

Mara looked down at Robert, who was unconscious on the floor next to her. She slung the mysterious weapon over her shoulder, as it was conveniently equipped with a strap. She also sheathed the halberd onto her back. She then scooped up Robert and carried him back to the bunker, where the Liches quickly went to work on healing his wounds. She laid his weapon within arms reach of him before going over to Deruella. She then tossed the special weapon onto the floor next to her pad.

Deruella looked up at Mara with a solemn expression. “I’m sorry,” she began.

“Don’t,” Mara said plainly. “Just tell me if this weapon is really worth it.”

Deruella remained silent as Mara walked off towards the exit.

“Where are you going?” asked one of the Red Slimes from before.

“To find our last missing party member,” she answered back. She searched through the castle, looking for Lock. Any soldier that got in her way met a rather gruesome end.
