Edelgard looked around the classroom and saw Ingrid with a face full of vengeance and rage within her. Dimitri finished his brief of the details of their mission everyone started to move to the front gate after grabbing their equipment. It was a surprise for everyone that Jeralt is taking the place of Professor Byleth
Dimitri just stared at Ingrid who was often alone and her eyes do not match her mouth
"Ingrid are you alright?" Dimitri asked as his face is filled with worry and doubt
"Oh...your Highness...yes, I am alright," said Ingrid in an awkward voice
"Dimitri! Snap out of it! We moving out! Get yourself to the front!" Shouted Jeralt as he slaps Dimitri on the back
Dimitri just took one last look at Ingrid moving up to the front as they started their march towards the Sealed Forest. Lucky of them it still cloudy and the ground is starting to dry up from the heavy rain yesterday
"Dimitri is something wrong?" Edelgard asked as she pats his shoulder. Claude isn't too far behind
"Yes...I am very concerned about Ingrid...she was a friend of Ashe...a very close friend and well...I don't think her eyes match her mouth," said Dimitri as he struggles with his wording
"I see...it looks like we have to keep an eye on Ingrid...she might be raging within herself to kill Kronya," said Claude as he turns back to face at the rear while he kept himself moving forward
"The only way to quickly rid of the hatred and vengeance within her heart is to...let her kill Kronya herself...it might not be easiest nor it might not be the best solution but it better than letting her heart turn into darkness," said Edelgard as they continued marching forward
"Hurry it up! I don't what to stick in this disgusting forest any longer!" shouted Kronya who is still keeping on her disguise as she tightens her grip on her dagger
"Lady Kronya, we just need a couple more hours to gather everything and to make sure that we leave no trails," said a Dark Mage
"Good...that reminds me...where is Chaos! Chaos was supposed to be here!" Kronya however soon felt a chill behind her back
"You called?" Chaos asked as it foggy hand tapped onto Kronya shoulder
"Ch...Chaos...your here...that good...I was starting to think that you weren't going to show up," said Kronya who seems to be scared
"I am afraid that they have founded our position, Kronya do us a favour, prove yourself and you will be forgiven...if not..." Chaos raises it sword "I think you know what will happen," said Chaos as Kronya just nods
"Oh come on!" Kronya looked away for a moment for looking back at Chaos "Yea, yea Chaos don't worry...I got this," said Kronya as she moves into her position alongside the other members
Chaos position _ at the top near an alter like building. "Come and aid me Shadowed Swordmasters of the fallen!" shouted Chaos as two shadowy hooded figures appeared alongside him before moving into their position in the west and the east of Chaos. The faces of the Shadowed Swordmasters are completely covered in black fog like Chaos beside their swords as it not covered at all. Both of them are wielding Cutlass+ (14 Might, 100 hit rate, the brave and killing edge effect.). Alongside large armoured figure appeared wielding a huge Axe appeared right in front of Chaos wielding a Gigas Axe (21 Might, 80 hit rate, the user gain 25 Defence and 20 charm when wielding this weapon.)
They soon arrived at the bottom of the Sealed Forest with the Black Eagles at the left, Golden Deer at the center and the Blue Lions at the right
There are Demonic Beast in the left, center and right alongside Dark mages.
Axe fighters in the right, Archers in the center, and Mercenaries in the left side
"Alright, everyone remember our objective! Stay safe and eliminate these bastards at once!" shouted Jeralt as he positions himself at the left side beside the Black Eagles
A sound of cheer was heard as they started the mission at once
Dimitri moved forward against the Axe Fighters alongside Felix, Ingrid, Sylvain and Dedue while Mercedes and Annette support from the rear
Dimitri dodged against the Axe Fighter higher swing before twisting his arm and snapping his neck. Felix blocked an Axe attack while Ingrid finished the fighter off but now they have to face the Demonic Beast
The Center has split off with Claude, Hilda, Lysithea, Leonie heading towards the Black Eagles while Lorenz, Raphael and Ignatz when towards the Blue Lions
Edelgard is leading the way for the Black Eagles as everyone stood back to assist beside Casper, Ferdinand and Petra. Edelgard decide to wield a two-handed axe as she swings the axe against the Mercenary killing him automatically when she landed the blow, Hubert covered her back as normal alongside Petra and Ferdinand at least until a Demonic Beast started to heading their way
"Hey Princess, we assist you just don't get yourself killed!" shouted Claude as he fires his longbow at an enemy archer
"I cover you Edelgard!" shouted Lysithea as she cast Seraphim against the Demonic Beast dealing massive damage to it front mask area causing it to snap off
Edelgard smiled back at Lystihea before landing a strong heavy blow with her Greataxe onto the Beast face killing for good. She withdraws her axe "Forward now! Don't let a single one escape!" shouted Edelgard
Dimitri meanwhile used his strength to single handle destroy a Demonic Beast with the help of his Crest but his spear broke easily due to this
"Your Highness, here!" Sylvain tossed his spear at Dimitri in which he caught it
"Thank you, Sylvain, now advance!" shouted Dimitri as they move forward dealing with the axe fighters and the archers
Ingrid, Dimitri, Sylvain and Felix were leading the way
"What the? How many are there?" Kronya asked as she witnesses both Demonic Beast being taken down and the last one is being dealt with
"Lady Kronya...they all here! We are being overwhelmed!" cried out the Dark Mage
"Stay calm! We need more reinforcements!" She turns around to face Chaos "Hey, it would be nice if you can help us out!"
"I send a little aid but remember you still have to prove yourself then you will get to see my true power," Chaos replied as a group of Dark Mages appeared and started moving to the front lines
"Serious? Fine...I do as you say," Kronya muttered as she turns back to around
Edelgard dashed forward and easily killed the Dark mages no problem as she makes her way toward Kronya alongside Claude. Dimitri also had no problems and is making his way towards Kronya but this Ingrid is by his side
Edelgard and Claude arrived first with Kronya eyes when wide as she just stares at Edelgard
"Y...you...bitch! You...you sold us out didn't you? You must have...after all you didn't even show up to our meeting! " shouted Kronya with Edelgard having a frown on her face
"No...it just your stupidy that got yourself killed, now prepare yourself!" Edelgard replied as she charges forward with her Greataxe
"Well, well, well...it looks like you have gone completely nuts...don't worry...I make this quick," said Claude as he smirks before loading an arrow and firing it at Kronya
Kronya easily dodged Edelgard swing of her axe but got hit in her right leg by Claude arrow
"Gah...dam it...yo.."Kronya soon got cut off by a Javelin thrown by Dimitri which landed right into her left leg "GAH!" Cried out Kronya as her mobility is completely reduced to nothing
"Hey! We did! Teamwork," shouted Claude as he attempts a high five
Edelgard just stared at Claude for a moment "Sure...but not now Claude," said Edelgard as Dimitri and Ingrid close in
"Huh...you two again...well...it looks like we meet again," said Kronya as she smiles a bit at Dimitri and Ingrid while her disguise wore off
"I see...you are nothing but a beast!" shouted Dimitri as his face turns into anger and hatred
"Yo...you...you murdered Ashe in cold blood!" shouted Ingrid as Edelgard and Claude backs off a bit
"Yea...so what?" Kronya prepares herself as she raises her dagger
"I...I kill you!" shouted Ingrid as she dismounted and charges straight at Kronya
Dimitri just silently followed behind Ingrid as Kronya tosses one of her throwing daggers at Ingrid but it missed as it flew over her head. Ingrid managed to close in on her and thrust her spear at Kronya and due to both of her legs are wounded her avoid is reduce to zero making it very easy for Ingrid to land her spear onto her
Ingrid with a firey fury within her thrust her spear right into Kronya chest as her face transforms into satisfaction and happiness as she moves her spear deeper into Kronya "How does it feel now you bitch!" She drives it even deeper as Kronya eyes when wide as she just stares at her "Now...you feel my pain!" She pulled out her spear and started to stab Kronya many times
Dimitri looked at the ground as he stared away from Ingrid while she continues to stab Kronya body even though it looks like she already dead
Felix ran pass Dimitri and grabbed Ingrid by the underarm as he starts to pull her away "Ingrid! That enough she dead...she already dead...you killed her," said Felix as he continues to hold onto Ingrid until she calmed down
"...she finally dead...Ashe...I finally avenged you," said Ingrid as she kneeled onto the ground looks up at the cloudy sky
"Hey, Princess...who the hell is that?" Claude asked as he points at Chaos who is staring at them from above
Edelgard eyes when wide "I...I don't know...Claude...I actually don't know who he/she is," said Edelgard in which Claude face turn into shock
"What do you mean Edelgard? I thought...shoot...so he/she is a newcomer to TWSITD?" Claude looked at Edelgard who just nods
"Maybe...I don't know but...I have a bad feeling about this," Edelgard just stared at Chaos alongside the Gigas Knight in front of Chaos
"Yea...it looks like he/she brought some friends," said Claude as he points out the two Shadowed Swordmaster
"Shadowed Swordmaster? Well that confirmed that he/she is aligned with TWSITD...those Shadowed Swordmaster are known for being strong and fast...making them difficult to deal with," Edelgard replied as she looked around at Claude then at Dimitri, Ingrid and Felix
"...well that just great Princess but...they aren't charging at us nor...moving," Claude just stared at them who are still not moving "Which is...I am not complaining but...they appear to very strong...much stronger than us,"
Edelgard looked back at Claude "Yea...Jeralt was helpful but...I don't think he strong enough to take them head-on," said Edelgard
Chaos watched down below as Kronya get slain by Ingrid "So she failed, very well..." Chaos walked up to the ledge and stared down below before striking _ sword down onto the ground making a ramp from the environment.
Chaos walked down as Edelgard, Dimitri, Claude, Felix, and Ingrid turn around to stare at _
The Shadowed Swordmaster moved right beside Chaos with the Gigas Knight going in front
The rest of the Black Eagles, Blue Lion and Golden Deer arrived at the center alongside Jeralt who all stood back by Dimitri/Edelgard/Claude orders
"Alright...who are you?" Edelgard asked with Dimitri's eyes filled itself with confusion
Dimitri tighten his spear while Claude prepares his arrow
"...Chaos, you may call me Chaos," Chaos replied as the Shadowed Swordmaster lay their swords to rest beside him
Dimitri looked at Chaos with a hateful look while Claude just frowns
Edelgard kept her cool as she just stared at Chaos
"I have seen this world for over 6000 years and I have always despair a better future no matter the cost. Remember my name well as we shall meet again at another time," said Chaos as it raised its sword in the air before warping away alongside the Shadowed Swordmaster and the Gigas Knight
Edelgard just shakes his head before turning back to Dimitri and Claude "I am sorry but...it looks like you are right Claude...he/she is a threat within TWSITD," whispered Edelgard as Dimitri and Claude nods
"Alright...let gather the evidence and then...we can return home," said Jeralt as he looked at the place where Kronya was at "Why does this place seems familiar?" Jeralt just shakes his head and started to assist the other students
