"Let's begin, Shall we?"... Leo grinned at the Yfels, who seemed anxious. They had no idea what had just occurred in front of their eyes. They couldn't keep up with Leo's actions.
"I'll take one"... Lexus remarked this while snarling at one Yfel... He wasted no time and flung his daggers at the Yfel. But he avoided it by moving backward. Yfel lifted his hand, summoning something, the evilness in the air, which gathered into his hand and became a black sword.
"Oh! He wields a black energy sword... "Garud, follow his lead"... Leo's eyes sparkled and transformed into Garud's, allowing him to observe every movement of the yfel. Lexus and Yfel began battling ferociously.
"Where are you concentrating, intruder...?" "Come at me"... Leo yelled
"You talk a lot... Prince… "Today is the last day for you." A monstrous creature sprang from Yfel's body. It produced purple fire shots, the same as before... It started shooting at Leo...
"Fool!"... Leo grinned as he vanished into thin air, or so the Yfel imagined. Leo was simply moving too rapidly. He went towards the foe, yelling "Foc, come out!" before drawing a light energy sword with a Golden lioness head hilt from his chest. He then tossed Foc into the air. Xena emerged as she caught the Foc.
"Take care of the beast, Xena..." "I can get this worm here," he remarked...
The yfel proceeded to shoot aimlessly, unaware of what was going on around him, until he noticed a shining golden fist on his side, aiming at his head. Leo knocked the yfel to the ground, as Xena slew the entity he possessed. The yfel collapsed to the ground after being struck by Leo's strong fist and passed out. Following Foc's wound, the beast burnt to ashes. Lexus had already dispatched that yfel, who lay lifeless on the ground.
"Lexus, are you okay?"... Leo asked, as Xena and sparrow were busy tying up the yfel Leo had defeated for further inquiry. Lexus descended from the sky, his wings and Garud's eyes gradually fading.
"What do you intend to do with him, Prince?"... queried Sparrow.
"Lexus can delve into his previous memories, so we can learn more about this surprise attack"... Leo responded
"Yes, move a little... I'll examine his memory"... When Lexus was ready to inspect, the ground groaned as the yfels' bodies were seized and dragged into the dirt.
"What the fuck!" ... Lexus and others were shocked and stepped back.
"Look up, Leo"... Xena noticed something in the sky... "He is not like these worthless yfels ... He has a higher rank"... she observed
"It's not yet time, Prince... I'll let you slip a bit more... It's entertaining to play"... He flashed a sinister smile before disappearing through a portal.
Suddenly, Neila and Jarse emerged out of nowhere...
"WHOA!" ... Sparrow and Lexus raised their guard, startled...
"What have you done, princess? ... How did our info get out?" ... Lexus questioned
"They were watching us... But it all began when Kenneth was caught"... While panting and placing her sword around her waist, she muttered.
"Kenneth? Kenneth who? ... the man who used to work for you... within the palace?" ... Leo asked.
"That's correct... I'm not sure how, but my cousin, Reiner Demion, is a sorcerer... He discovered my interaction with Kenneth... When I arrived, they had set up a trap for me... This time I was lucky"... She responded
"Great! ...our plans are wrecked before we even got started"... Lexus chuckled jokingly
"Huh!" Leo sighed as he sat down on the ground, staring at Neila. "Lexus, contact Eesah and Bella, and enquire if they are ok? ... he stated
Lexus shifted to the side... a few moments ago... Eesah and Bella were on their way to see Hopin Gori, the second commander of the Lehts.
"Don't you think we're being watched, Bella? Eesah enquired while driving the car.
"I was about to ask you that... I guess we're not alone... I can feel Yfels presence above us"... she said.
"Well, we don't have any other choice but to greet them"… HAHA… Eesah burst out laughing.
"You're an insane old man"... Bella seemed anxious. Eesah pulled over to the side of the road and parked his car. He then stepped outside and stretched his arms.
"You might wanna come down and talk?... I'm not in the mood to go up"... He screamed
"Don't pretend like you're tougher and stronger than us, Leht fool!" ... two yfels in full black robes appeared in front of him.
"Bella, stay in the car... I've got these two... puny little bastards"... With a grimace, he smacked his hands together.
One of the Yfel crossed his palm and summoned a beehive... It was encircled by darkish energy. The other Yfel conjured up two pretty weird teeth-monster blades…
"Eat, my children," shouted the Yfel who summoned the Beehive. A swarm of evil-looking monster bees approached Eesah.
"Shit! This is a terrible power... Bella, forget what I said... a little assistance here"... Eesah yelled.
"Yuck! Insects… I hate them"... Bella was hesitant to exit the vehicle...
"That's irrelevant here, kid... Come on"... Eesah screamed once again.
"Fine"… Bella stepped forward and lifted her hands in the air... Tree vines sprang from the ground like living snakes... Their sharp vine edge began penetrating the bees and totally encasing that Yfel into a vine mummy. Another Yfel approached Eesah, whirling his blades... "Adad, Manifest," Eesah muttered to himself... His hand had become brown and muscular, like a bull's leg... "Get those filthy teeth out of my face!" he roared, striking the blades. They were shattered into pieces…
"Ehh??" That yfel was too bewildered to speak. He flinched in terror and vanished with his companion.
"They got away?"... Bella wondered as she returned her vines to the earth.
"Stupid demons! It only took one strike... I hoped for a fair fight"... Eesah smiled.
"Uff… Let's get moving before that man arrives with his troops... We can't afford any more injuries... I hope the Prince and everyone else are safe"... Bella returned to the car. She got a call from Lexus just as they were ready to leave...
..... Now.....
"Leo… Bella and Eesah also had a surprise attack party... They said that they are OK and are on their way to see Hopin Gori"... Lexus responded after calling Bella.
"Good… Thank Allai…. So, our intentions to discover more about the laboratories and Benjamin's book have failed... We need to relocate to a safe place now that they are aware of our arrangement"... Leo stated...
"Yes, I have already moved my team from the Spades Club... But we still have a way to gather information on Benjamin's book and laboratory"... Neila remarked
"How? ... we don't have anyone on the inside to help us, and that Kenneth guy you mentioned is probably dead by now"... stated Leo
Leo noticed Neila's silence. He approached her... "Whatever the way you said, let's go and discuss that in a peaceful place… We can no longer endanger ordinary people's lives... So let's get going"... Leo grinned softly.
"Yes, but where to?" she inquired.
"I know a spot"... He sneered...
While Leo and others are safeguarding their lives... the one who vanished through a portal, after testing all of them, was kneeling in front of a man with an enormous quantity of evil aura spinning around. He sat on a throne-like chair, with terrifying scarlet eyes like a dragon and a demon's smile. His shadow extended dramatically on the wall, the dark silhouette had big twisted ram horns and long ears... that man's frown was sinister. His half-opened eyes made folks shiver from head to toe. But when the light progressively flashed across his face, it became evident that, despite his middle age and evil appearance, he was the most attractive man you would ever see.
"Rise, Fumi... What have you discovered?" ... the man's strong and gruff voice boomed across the hall.
"My King... They are, as you suspected, stronger than our lower ranks... But I discovered some fascinating things about them and Neila" Fumi grinned confidently…
