Lilith hit the Grand Commanders' line like a meteor given purpose. She didn't bother with subtle tactics or complex maneuvers—just raw speed and overwhelming strength applied with surgical precision.
The Grand Commander on the right flank—a woman wielding twin blades that hummed with consecrated power—tried to intercept. Lilith simply grabbed both blades mid-swing and broke them with her bare hands. The woman stumbled back, shocked, and Lilith's follow-up strike sent her flying thirty feet to crash into the third wall's base.
Two Grand Commanders immediately shifted to engage Lilith—recognizing her as the primary threat. That left three focused on defending against the demon army's advance.
Perfect.
Liam Phase Shifted directly into the center of their formation.
Commander Arcturus reacted instantly, his shield coming up to block while his spear thrust toward Liam's chest. The movement was perfect—decades of experience made manifest in split-second timing.
