"Senior Brother, I'd watch what you say, if those old fogies heard you then you will be wishing you were dead."A young girl said in a teasing manner.
"Hah! I like to see them try. Our issue is…." The young man looked at the barrier in front of him and felt bitter. The two of them were told to find out who the targets were and if possible take them out. But they were to do so discreetly.
"This barrier is multilayered and very powerful… birds and animals can pass through it but we can't. If we attempt to attack it, we risk notifying the person who created it." The young girl broke down their situation. For two people who were supposed to stay under the radar, this barrier was the worst thing they could come across.
"Damnit!" The young man shouted out in anger as he threw his fist forward.
"Ray, don't!" The young girl yelled trying to stop her companion but it was too late, the young man's fist smashed into the barrier causing it to slightly ripple. The young girl held her head in disbelief. "Now you have done it..."
"Well, let's wait for them to come and see what they have to say..."

Alicia was overseeing the construction of her buildings and doing what she could to help out when she felt a quake in the barrier she created. "I will be right back..."
"Are they here?" Tang An who was next to her asked.
"Maybe, the barrier was just attacked." Alicia answered.
"I will go with you." Tang An said before looking over in the direction that Tang Ming and Blake were in. Tang Ming felt her gaze and nodded his head. After being together for so many years they knew what the other was thinking without needing any words. Tang Ming whispered to Blake and the two of them disappeared.
Alicia and Tang An arrived at the spot where the young man and young woman were. Seeing the two peerless beauties show up caused the young man named Ray to become stunned as he looked at them. The young girl next to furrowed her brow and pinched the young man's waist. She then looked at Tang An and Alicia and gave a slight bow. "One of you must be the person who set up this barrier. We have come from afar and need to pass through these lands would you grant us permission."
"Who are you and why do you need to pass through my kingdom?" Alicia asked.
"That's something you do not need to know. Just know that we need to pass through these lands." The young man said sarcastically.
Tang An and Alicia both gave the two a look before turning around and was about to walk away when the young man suddenly yelled out. "If you do not wish for your whole kingdom to be destroyed you best let us through!"
The young girl next to him, backed away quickly knowing that he was about to endure something she wanted no part in. And she was right, Alicia would never let someone threaten her homeland without bashing that person up. Her figure disappeared and reappeared in front of the young man her fist already brought back and thrust forward. It was so fast that the young man didn't even have time to defend himself when he felt the fist smack into his face sending him smashing into the mountain peak below. Alicia's body disappeared once more before arriving where the young man was and grabbing him by the leg twirling him around and then smashing him back into the ground. Deciding it was not enough she repeated the process more than one hundred times causing the once well-dressed young man to look more like a street beggar after she finally calmed down.
Holding the Young Man by his neck Alicia's eyes that were as cold as ice looked at the young man and said: "Say it again."
"Miss, can I ask you to let him off? He is used to running wild back home. He is not good with words and acts out." The young girl who did not dare get close sent a voice transmission using magic to Alicia.
"One thing we do not like dealing with is people who threaten our kingdom. After going through wars that have destroyed our lands more than once we do not take kindly to strangers. And since he threatened my kingdom I can not let him off. I can not allow any threats to my kingdom be allowed to roam free. Do you think I am stupid enough to let him go? He will run back and call for more powerful people to come and avenge him. Do not think I do not know why you are here. You could say I have been expecting the people from other continents to show up at some point. To think they would send an idiot out to announce their arrival." Alicia finished her words and gave a few more slaps to the young man. The entire time he could only groan in pain. He never thought he would come to this backwater continent to be smacked around and beaten by a young woman.
