Zolgear looked at fallen Sirzechs. "Hahaha! Sirzechs you never thought you would fall like this did you? Now I am going to extract the unique destruction magic of Gremory family become even more powerful. I will become powerful enough to become the next Demon King." Zolgear slowly approached Sirzechs. Sirzechs smiled bitterly in his heart. Sirzechs could feel his eyes getting heavier as second passed.
"Sirzechs this is the end. Say hi to Wilbert for me. Hahaha!" Zolgear took out a black knife and was about to stab Sirzechs. Sirzechs looked at Zolgear with a unwilling, bitter and angry expression. Just when Sirzechs was about to lose his consciousness, Finn appeared in front of Sirzechs. Seeing the familiar figure with different hair color, Sirzechs managed to recognize Finn. Sirzechs after seeing Finn finally closed his eyes in peace.
Finn was spending time with Kaguya, Rin, Tio and Tsunade but than he got a emergency call from Sirzechs. Finn knowing that Sirzechs wouldn't call him unless something really bad happened immediately teleported to Sirzechs place.
"What happened?" Finn asked but then he felt something was coming towards his neck. Finn moved to the left and dodged the sudden attack from Zolgear.
"Who are you?" Finn looked at the man who just attacked him. Judging from the man's appearance Finn guessed that this man was a Demon.
Zolgear seeing that Finn had dodged his attack decided to retreat. "I already have achieved my goal today so even if I can't kill Sirzechs today, I will get my chance in the future." Finn hearing Zolgear words understood that whatever has happened to Sirzechs is because of this man.
Finn saw that this stranger was chanting some spell. Zolgear quickly chanted a teleportation spell and left. Finn didn't stop Zolgear since Finn now urgently needed to bring Sirzechs back to Gremory Household and get him treated. But before leaving Finn used his Tenseigan to see if there was any other person hiding and watching.
Scene change....
Grayfia looked very happy today. The reason behind her happiness was Finn. Grayfia cooked food for Finn. Finn left after eating with her. Grayfia then went to take a bath since she had not taken any baths for 3 days. After bathing Grayfia was about to sleep but then she felt a strong magic fluctuation coming from the garden.
"What is happening?" Grayfia went to the garden. Grayfia could tell someone was trying to use barrier to prevent others in the Gremory house from knowing about mana fluctuation. Grayfia was a sensitive type Mage so she could easily sense or feel any mana fluctuation around her.
So Grayfia at her fastest speed arrived at the garden and saw a group of 13 black cloaked man who was about to leave this place. "Let's leave this place and go back to our master"'s side to help him."
Yuji and his subordinates was about to leave but then they heard a slow footsteps. Yuji and others saw a silver haired beauty wearing maid uniform walking towards them."Why are you guys in such hurry? Don't you think it's impolite to enter someone's house in the middle of the night."
Seeing Grayfia Yuji and his subordinates became tense. They all thought and confirmed that Grayfia was looking after a man named Finn who was in coma for days. This is also why Zolgear dared to attack Sirzechs. Earlier Zolgear had made the magic barrier which prevented Grayfia or anyone from sensing anything when Sirzechs used his mana. Sirzechs wasn't able to sense Zolgear because he was master at suppressing his mana.
"Everyone give your everything to stop this woman and buy me time." Yuji began to chant a teleportation spell while rest of the 12 assassins surrounded Grayfia. But Grayfia was not going to let Yuji teleport.
Grayfia was known as the Strongest queen in the whole continent. She was the 2nd most powerful person after Sirzechs in the Gremory Household. Grayfia was not going to let them succeed.
Grayfia suddenly disappeared from her place, rather the 12 assassins were under the impression that Grayfia had disappeared but in reality Grayfia speed was too fast for them. Grayfia appeared in front of Yuji.
Snap!
Grayfia when snapped her finger which made Yuji lose his consciousness. Grayfia used her magic to cause a small power outage in Yuji's nervous system which was enough to knock him out.
Unlike Sirzechs who played around with the assassins, Grayfia was not the type to play around. Grayfia always took her work very seriously. Grayfia didn't waste any time to knock rest of the Assassins. After dealing with the assassins Grayfia locked them in the underground Dungeon with a paralysis spell on the assassins.
Grayfia then went to Sirzechs room to report what has happened but strangely Sirzechs was not there.
"Where is Lord Sirzechs? Don't tell me he went to drink out again?" Sirzechs had a hobby of drinking outside in the middle of the night. Usually Sirzechs would tell Grayfia before leaving but today Grayfia was accompanying Finn so Sirzechs might not have gotten chance to tell her. Grayfia told herself that and convinced herself that nothing has happened to Sirzechs.
But
"I can't shake this werid feeling. I feel something very bad will happen." Grayfia was waiting in the living room for Sirzechs to return.
"If Lord Sirzechs had gone out then he at least would have told someone in the house. But everyone in the Mansion is sleeping. Where is Lord Sirzechs?" as time passed Grayfia was getting more and more concerned.
But then under the moonlight, Finn teleported in the living room.
" Finn you are Ba..... "Grayfia stopped talking when her eyes landed on Sirzechs who was being carried by Finn on his shoulder.
"Lord Sirzechs, what happened to him?" Finn shook his head and said. "First let us Take Sirzechs back to his room."
After lying Sirzechs on his bed, Finn turned to Grayfia who was checking Sirzechs condition. "I suddenly got a emergency call from Sirzechs. I teleported to his location and found a old aged man from Demon Faction. Sirzechs was lying on the ground and had lost his consciousness." Grayfia couldn't find anything wrong with Sirzechs. Grayfia was not a medical expert so she had no choice what had happened to Sirzechs.
"Finn tell me the appearance of that man?" Grayfia asked.
"a tall man and wore a red jacket with yellow-padded shoulders. He had pointy ears, white hair with a matching beard as well as purple eyes." Listening to Finn's description Grayfia kind of had guessed who this man was but she refused to believe that a high ranking Demon like Zolgear would came here.
"I know who this man is but the chances of that man coming to attack Sirzechs is less. Since he is from Demon Faction, his appearance itself could cause a tension of war between two factions. I don't think the current Demon king would allow Zolgear to came here."
"What if their target was to take out Sirzechs from the beginning?" Finn's question made Grayfia to think. The more Grayfia thought the more Grayfia also came to believe in Finn's words.
"Finn earlier I caught 13 assassins. They were talking about to finishing their task and returning back to their master's side."
"Grayfia can you get information about of those assassins mind?" Finn asked.
"No, but Rias mother lady Venelana can use powerful Hypnosis spell." Finn was thinking if they can't get information from the Assassins then he will find a Yamanaka clan member from Konoha.
"Grayfia before everything we have to find a healer for Sirzechs. I don't see any injuries in this body meaning whatever has happened to him is internal." According Finn, Sirzechs didn't look like he was poisoned or he was in pain. Sirzechs looked like he was sleeping. Finn would have a believed that Sirzechs is only sleeping if Grayfia had showed Sirzechs current appearance to Finn.
"You are right. I will call the Gremory clan head Doctor to look at Sirzechs."

In a dark mansion, the moonlight fall on the couch from through window. There was few man sitting on the couch, playing chess and while the third man is looking at the moon.
Tap! Tap!
All the three turned around and looked at the a figure wearing black cloak and hiding his face under a hood.
"Today I have managed to collected 10,000 souls after helping Zolgear deal with Sirzechs." The one who spoke now was Allen from the undead faction.
"Good job Allen. Now we will need to collect another 140,000 souls and we will able to open the portal and bring our Monarch to this world. We are slowly getting closer to our goal." Allen grinned and sat next to the man who just spoke.
"Now that Sirzechs has fallen and that bastard Finn no longer has strength to defend the Gremory clan from threats. With only Grayfia being the strongest, I am sure other factions knowing about Sirzechs condition will try to attack the Gremory Clan." The playing chess said.
"Should we spread the news about Sirzechs condition? If other were to know about this news then Gremory clan will be in danger. I am sure Gremory clan will try their best to suppress the news."
"There is no need for that. Knowing Zolgear I am sure he will report this news to the current Demon king. Current Demon king will pressure the Gremory to hand over Mio Naruse. At worse case the Demon Faction might even go to war against the Gremory faction." Allen spoke with a nasty grin. If one were to look closely enough they could see blood stains on his cloak which shows that he has just killed someone before coming here.
