(Underground City, Main Entrance)

Every one of them was shaking in their boots when they saw the number of people that were in front of them. Emilia was readying a spell with which she could take them all out, but she felt two hands on both of her shoulders. 

"We are here along with you", they said. Just as they thought this was the end, two other people emerged from the shadows. They were walking alongside each other, and something told them that they were here on friendly terms.

"I am the Prince of this Kingdom, Samuel Heart. And this here is my companion Anthony. We are here to assist you on the King's orders", he said. The part of the King's Orders was all a lie, but he was sure they would buy the part.

And that they did. They thought that the castle had sent in reinforcements, but when they saw nothing, they were confused. Tobias stepped forward, and he pushed both of them to the back.

"If you are trying to con us into doing something, I will make sure you learn your lessons", he warned and was about to contact Lucas when Emilia stopped him. She recognized Sam as she had seen his picture before.

"They are the Prince, but is this all the Kingdom could give us?", she asked as she looked at him skeptically. Her doubt was within reason, as she was expecting something more from the Kingdom she served. 

"They are at the Palace, and when the horde arrives, they will be dispatched. We are currently looking for the traitor in our midsts, and they have not been identified. Until they are identified, The King refuses to let them join the battle to not mess up the strategy that has already been set into motion", he explained and Emilia understood what he was implying.

She wanted to ask more, but the timing did not seem right. Sam stood alongside everyone, and Anthony transformed into his First Stage. Sam had a smile on his face, and he looked at the enemies in front of him.

"You are not a match for me, bring me someone stronger",  he said and lead the charge. Emilia was confused when she heard him say the words, but his spell-casting speed amazed her.

The moment he snapped his fingers, Icicles were floating all around him. The people who they had to face took a step back, and one among them took a step forward. 

"DIE!", he said and one of the Icicles pierced through him. Anthony ran across the floor, and he plunged his claw right into the heart of his enemy. 

"ATTACK!", he commanded, and that was when everyone came back to reality. The four of them moved forward, and Sam was left to look at the defense, not allowing anyone inside of the tunnel.

Tobias was once again using his Lightning and moving quickly, but he was slow when compared to Michelle, who was much faster as it was dark and she could jump right to her opponent's back and kill them instantly.

Emilia was using the staff as a weapon, but she was not trained in the ways of the Staff, and she was sloppy with the attacks. Sam was observing everyone as he was sure that they needed guidance to improve in strength.

Anthony was just using his instincts and attacking them. On some occasions, when he was surrounded by multiple enemies, he used the Needle Technique to kill them. 

By piercing some of his needles, he was able to inflict frost among them, freezing their blood and making them akin to a statue. It was something he had found out recently, and he was sure that if Sally did the same, they would be able to increase their fighting prowess much more.

They were fighting when one of the Beastmen stepped past them and headed for Sam's head. He thought that since they were all fighting and he was the one that was at the back, he would be weak and he could break past them.

"Just how wrong were you to come for my head", he smiled and withdrew all of his Icicles. He was planning to toy with him a little, and finally show him who is the boss among them.

The man was now right next to his face, and he have a left hook. His hand was transformed at the final second, and it was that of an Ape. Sam was hit square in the face, but he didn't budge. 

The man who thought he would see Sam fly was now looking at the man standing right in front of him, and with his fist right on his left cheek. Sam was grinning wide, and the man felt something quiver inside him.

Sam now took a step back and brushed off the punch like it was nothing to him. The way he was looking at the man was terrifying him, and he was furious now. 

"I am much stronger than you puny humans!", he exclaimed as he ran straight at him. Sam, who was having a cool head was pissed the moment he heard him call humans 'puny'.

"Uh oh", said Anthony the moment he heard the line, as he knew that was the point that would make Sam go berserk. He looked back, and it was at this moment he saw something inside Sam unleash.

"Everybody, step back!", he commanded and the next moment, the man who was in front of Sam was sent tumbling behind. Sam was taking one step at a time, and the pressure around everyone was increasing.

"I will take all of you on, come at me you punks!", he announced. His voice was filled with rage, and there was something inside him that was boiling.

His fists were covered with Ice, and Ice began to take shape around him. A body armor appeared around, and it covered all the parts. While everyone thought how versatile the armor would be, Sam demonstrated that it was just like clothing.

His face was covered with a helmet, and there was an icy chill emanating from him. Everyone was now afraid and cursed for the guy who had woken up something he shouldn't have.

Sam was now ahead of everyone, and Emilia was thinking that she had seen this somewhere before. The back, in particular, seemed familiar to her. That was when a realization struck her.

"No wonder Lucas has the same attitude when he is pissed. You are his brother", she realized. When she heard the name, she was skeptical if they had any relations. 

But after seeing this demonstration, she was sure that they were indeed related. From that moment, she just watched closely to see what he was doing.

The enemies were now looking at Sam with fear, and one of them began to convince the others. 

"What are you doing? There is only one of them and sixty of us. We have the advantage. Attack!", he said and everyone charged at him.

"Big mistake", muttered Anthony. He had only seen Sam angry once, and it was something he would never forget. A sight to behold, he was thinking as he saw a glint flash across his eyes.

His expressions were hidden by his helmet, as he didn't want anyone to see the smirk that was across his face. He grabbed one of them by his throat and twisted his head, breaking his neck and killing him.

Everyone was charging, and their aims were not at him. They were sure that he would not be able to protect everyone, and this was the best time for them to run past him and enter the tunnel.

"NO ONE RUNS PAST ME!", he said and raised an Ice Wall right behind him with a stomp. The ground rumbled, and an Ice wall was raised to the height of fifteen meters.

He snapped, and the people who were trying to climb were pierced with Icicles from the wall, and they fell to the ground with holes in their bodies.

He began to count how many of them were there, and there were not many as most of them were dead from trying to climb across the wall. The few that were struggling were killed instantly.

He lowered the wall, rubbed both of his palms together. Right after that, a blade made of Ice was brought out from it. He was holding it and looked at all of them.

"I will give you a chance of three strikes. If you manage to kill me within then, my life is yours", he announced as he took a defensive stance. The remaining fifteen men looked at each other and nodded.

The man who was sent tumbling was not killed yet, and he was watching everything with fear from the back.. He was looking for a chance to run away from the place, and he thought that this was the perfect opportunity.
