I crack my eyes open and blink a few times, then sit up and stretch.
I slowly slink out of bed, careful to not wake Jericho up.I walk over and open the curtains, and it's still fairly dark. The sky is just starting to turn slightly purple though.
I go over and strap on my armor, still careful to make as little noise as possible.
I take one last look out the window before I step out the door, but stop in my tracks.
Demons.
I run over and start shaking Jericho awake
(Y/N): "Jericho wake up!"
She opens her eyes half way and moves to face me.
Jericho: "What d-"
I scoop her up in my arms and run out the door as fast as I can. Just as I turn the corner the room we were in explodes.
(Y/N): "Jericho find a sword and get to safety!"
Jericho: "But-"
(Y/N): "GO!"
She hesitates for a moment, but turns and runs away.
I run and jump out of the exploded wall, and try my best to go full Tendril, but only get about 3/4ths of the way there.
I zip over to the Demons who have yet to break through the wall, yet are still shooting at the castle.I land right beside one and jump all the way up to its head, uppercut it, then shoot out a tendril onto its shoulder and use Leach.
When I drop down, I'm already feeling more powerful. Guess I really didn't have much in me if a Red Demon was all it took to make a noticeable difference.
A Gray Demon lands behind me and shoots a laser at me, but an Absorbing Sheild sprouts out of my back to take the blast.
Then I stick him with a Tendril and use Leach again.
Oh yeah, now this is more like it.
He goes to swipe at me, but I catch it with my bare hands. Or at least I try, but I'm still not quite strong enough. It makes me slide back a bit before I can completely stop it, but I don't go far.
I extend my right arm into a blade-like shape, and slice the Demon's arm clean off.
It reels back in pain, but before it can even react much I jump up and smack it across the face with its own arm.
I shoot 3 Tendrils into the wall behind him, and pull myself towards him as fast as I can, kicking it in it's right eye. But I don't stop like I had thought i would, I keep going until I come out the other side.
I land on the wall and dig into it, looking back. Far more Demons.
I jump out and shoot 3 Tendrils at a few Demons and Leach from them.
I land and look at my fist, then make it twice as big.
Ohh yeah, only a few dozen more and I'll almost be half way back to where I was.
I lift up my head in the sudden realization that I forgot Balmung, and slice through a few Demons on my way back to the Castle.
I go up to where the room Jericho and I were in was, but yeah there's not much left.
I drop down below and search through the rubble until I feel it calling to me.
I find it fairly quickly and jump up as high as I can, and zip towards the Demons.I split Balmung in two and hold the blades in a slightly crossed way, and start spinning.
When I arrive, I go straight through two Red Demons and half way into a Gray Demon, killing it.
The Sun peeks up above the horizon now, so Escanor should be out soon enough.
A whole squadron of Holy Knights drops down behind me, which catches me off guard. But when I realize what they are, I turn my backs to them and face the Demons, absolutely ready.
We all charge into battle, and I plow through more and more of them, all while using Leach on as many as I could.
By the time it seemed like 9 am, a I was almost back to how I was when I first met Melascula.
Speaking of, I can sense some powerful energy heading towards us. But it's not King or Diane, this is-
The Commandments.
