Rise of the Inquisition (Arc 4-6)

Chapter 115: Tragedy of Icarus

The Inquisition stood still as each of the members of House Athena with Lady Diane and Damien moved past them, they were standing in between the entire Army of House Athena and Lady Athena's group. Noxious grunted, as the realization that he wouldn't be one of the first to attack Dorian kicked in.

"Ahhh--fucking hell! I wanted to fucking kill that dude!"

Paladin was standing off to the left side of Noxious, he sighed and shook his head.

"It is better this way Noxious, we'll be able to have Sparrow all to ourselves. Not only that, but I presume there will be more people inside the mansion."

"That doesn't matter! We would've ended up killing him anyways!"

Omega and Archer, both of whom who were standing on the left side of Paladin had their arms crossed. Both of them were looking at the back of a person of significant importance in front of them. For Archer, he was looking at the back of Lady Diane. For Omega, he was looking at the back of Damien. Both of them reluctantly agreed to Paladin's plan, only with the knowledge that Altum Chaplain Sparrow who was on the inside of the mansion would be more dangerous than Altum Chaplain Dorian assumably. As Archer was looking at the back of Lady Diane. What Ava said echoed throughout his ears.

If you really cared for her then why didn't you remember the question that Lady Diane had for you.

Archer was scratching the bottom of his chin with his left hand, he was trying to think back to what Lady Diane might have asked him.

What did Mordred ask me? I now remember her asking me something on the battlefield, something that I said I would reply to after the battle. This I fucking remember, but what specifically was the fucking that she asked!

As the Archer was thinking, Lady Athena raised the long steel bladed sword in her right hand and pointed it towards the heavens. While she did so she was looking straight into the eyes of the Altum Chaplain Dorian, whom was her enemy.

"Altum Chaplain Dorian, as one of the leaders of the Icarus Cult you have participated in significant crimes against the Kingdom of Orion, and against the Human race. Because of this, it has been deemed today that you shall die a death without honor."

Altum Chaplain Dorian sighed in annoyance with Lady Athena's small speech, and while he looked away from her he waved her off with his left hand.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever you say lady. How about we get his battle on the road, so I can capture the Inquisitors and be given significant rewards after I'm done with you?"

Lady Athena, with a stern warrior like look on her face brought her long steel bladed sword down, the tip directly pointing at the face of Altum Chaplain Dorian.

"House Athena, destroy the Icarus Cult!"

Suddenly, dirt was kicked up from the ground and clouds of dirt were created all along the Inquisitors. As the Army of House Athena charged forth at their enemy, all of the soldiers passed by the Inquisitors and went in separate ways of Lady Athena. Their swords raised towards the sky as they charged at the walls made of Icarus Cultists on each side of the courtyard.

"For the Honor of House Athena! For the Glory of House Athena!"

"For the Honor and Glory of the Lady Athena!"

"For the Kingdom of Orion, down with the Icarus Cult!"

As each of the armies clashed with each other, clouds of dirt were floating around them, and the sounds of the steel blades of swords could be heard clashing with each other. Lady Athena then suddenly charged forward, with Highclere and Ava on her right side, and with Lady Diane, Darius on her left, followed up by Damien behind the two of them charging forward. Altum Chaplain Dorian smirked at the sight of Lady Athena charging forward, and as the Icarus Cultists near him holding their snake shaped steel bladed swords prepared themselves, he waved them off.
