Attack And Rescue

The 10 commandment legion retired from where they were operating because Lucy was declared most wanted by the master. They all returned so as to equip themselves and attack, this time ensuring that she is completely annihilated. The news of the missing Horn of Idoro ( goddess of death) hit the camp, the guardians of the castle were blamed because no one spotted or noticed someone entering the building to steal anything. Few years back, the blade of Xoxa got missing and nobody could adequately account for it. The last piece of the item needed which is the Eagle of Mato is well buried under the cemetery, well guarded by at least 20 legions of demon.

Lucy got another text from Zyana that a second attack is imminent, and this time, the 10 commandment legion would be available. Lucy has one option if she must protect James and the family, she must flee from them and hope they are not discovered, if she does that, their attention would be on the her and not James and the family. She set out instantly and carried her tired body out of the house, the sleeping spell she gave to James and the family is pretty much active so for 2 days, they would be safe from the demons that demanded their heads. Lucy's blood attracted more demons to her, the more she ran, the more she could feel the presence of over a thousand demons pursuing her, she was like the deer desperately panting for water and searching for safety from the eye of the predators. The 10 Legion pursuit and gently allowed her to keep a distance, that way she could attempt to run more and keep the distance and in turn, she will weary. The attention was to totally destroy the host body of lucy, that way, she would be trapped before she finds a better host. Lucy took the street called Straight and found herself in an open field so attacks would be imminent, she tried running back but the demons had already covered the grounds, she just stood and charged towards hundreds of demons. Lucy knew it was a lost battle for her but she would most definitely not go down without a fight. ''If I go today, then my head is worth at least 50 heads'', she declared and started making different kinds of enchantments to repel attacks. The first 6 demons that went after her got badly injured by her spells, the next sect that went faced similar fate and it seemed like an endless fight with a strong zeal to survive. The only thing that was truly sustaining Lucy and giving her the will to fight was the express image of Jude. The more she thinks about him and what they could have achieved together, the more her quest for revenge and thirst for blood arises. While she was fighting off the next sect of demons, one of the 10 commandment legion threw a narrow soundless but poisoned knife towards her and it cut through her leg, the poison was fast spreading but Lucy was very determined to take the head of at least 50 demons if she was going to die, she quickly found a corner, used her fire spell to lighten her clean blade and cut out the part that got poisoned and then she tied it with her cloth. Lucy came out to face them again, this time she planned to use all her power so that at least 100 can die with her, but while she was trying to cook up a spell, the demon of worship went after her, she tried all spell but the demon was too strong, the demon cut her back and blood started flowing even more from Lucy's host body, Zyana could not bear the torture so she pretended as though she wanted to attack Lucy and quickly shielded her from other attacks.

The demons that came for the attack channeled their attention on Zyana and then the fight became more fierce, ''I will protect you no matter the cost'' Zyana whispered to Lucy's ear and then transformed to a wild dog with wings, she took out about 20 of the demons once advanced further to attack the 10 commandment legions. Her intention was to get closest to the demon of death and the demon of lie because she heard rumors that they were the ones that stole the blade of Xoxa, she concluded that if they did stole the blade then they are planning of escaping the plan too. Zyana got a strong repel and got thrown far away, she hit her head and she rose again, this time she combined her power with Lucy's and they struck a nearby rock then the rock transformed into different particles and they threw it at the demons which caused lots of damages. Their combined efforts left them very tired and almost gone but the demon of death made up his mind to end their misery, so the demon told other demons to hold on while he finishes them off because he got tired of prolong fight with determined inferiors.

while the demon advanced further for the ultimate destroy spell of the traitors, Zyana said to him ''Before you finish us, don't you want to find the horn of Idora and the eagle eye of Mato? We have one and know the location of the other'' then the demon hesitated and beckoned on Demon of lie to come forth and verify their account of story and it checked out true. These two demons unanimously agreed to help them escape but on temporal basis because once they lay their hands on the remaining items, they would either kill them off or stop protecting them, they casted the perfect block protection and disappeared them to an unknown location where they cannot be seen. Lucy and Zyana got tended to by secret doctors while Demon of death and lie consulted the demon of seduction to join them because originally, they were the three that planned to escape the clan and start off a free demon nation devoid of heirachy, the demon of seduction quickly agreed and joined them. Now they are the five most wanted demons, the master was very furious and planned unleashing the demons of hell to attack them.
