All 13 witches looked at Lucy's portrait possessively.

"Sisters! We finally found her."

"Yes... There's no mistaking it. This is her!"

"Sisters! We finally found the b**ches daughter! 

Now, we can get revenge!"

"Of course! I've waited a long time for this!

We, Witches of Avodart, are not one to mess with.

For the crimes of her mother, the girl must be sacrificed.

It's the only way to appease Goddess Avodart, the Goddess of Witchcraft and Sorcery."

Yes. That's right!

Lucy's mother used to be one of the most outstanding members of their community.

She had her first kill at the age of 4, and was slowly brought up in the way of their society.

Things were all fine and good, with the girl growing into one of the most outstanding children amongst the pact.

She was ruthless, cunning, fierce and very cold.

Out on missions, she always performed the best, even doing better than her seniors.

Even the higher-up Witches all had eyes on this girl whose expression never changes.

She was indeed outstanding... That is until she turned 13.

With her high kill count and skills, she was quickly becoming the favourite of the place.

And that's why they had no qualms sending her out on missions.

There was a particular mission, where she got sent out with two other 16-year-old girls.

Generally speaking, if someone saw these girls, especially a 13-year-old girl, they would lower their guards tremendously.

The fact that they were women alone had made uncountable men lower their guards.

And this was their biggest advantage as women.

That, and the fact that they could act like weak babies, cowering in fear... only to turn ruthless and kill in the end.

Men were the most stupid beings they had ever seen in their lives.

Why favour someone crying over someone who wasn't?

Manipulation was a woman's greatest advantage, and they used it as they pleased.

Of course, at the age of 7, all warrior witches were to have sex with the men in the dungeons and learn the necessary skills to take any man 'there.'

But if one was one a talent like Lucy's mother, this could be prolonged at most before 15.

Bottom line, the majority of the ladies here did IT at the age of 7.

And those who died from it all were weak and seen as mistakes that somehow managed to get into their Hidden society.

The future they had society had thought out was a place for strong women only.

Those who couldn't make the cut would have to go!

.

As for Lucy's mother, her big change happened at 13.

This vicious killer girl had suddenly fallen in love with the target they were about to capture and assassinate.

She went out there along with 2 other 16-year-old girls for the mission.

And the more she watched the boy, the more pity she felt for the boy.

She also snuck out at night to see this boy severally.

But she was too naive.

The witch society had noticed her actions and quickly ended the boy's life right before her eyes.

While dying, he whispered something into her ear that they couldn't hear. 

But whatever it was, made her stay silent in a daze.

Of course as punishment, they locked her up for 6 whole months for her to learn her lesson to get her emotions in order.

At first, there was no progress.

But after 2 months of receiving whip lashes, beatings and so on... she returned to normal, training in the cells and chanting the ways of the society too.

Everything seemed like it was back to normal... Or so they thought.

.

For her good behaviour, she was released a month and a half earlier than scheduled and even started being the genius they were all used to.

Heh.

But that was just her plan to lure them into a false sense of security.

They didn't know how she did it, but soon enough, countless soldiers stormed the plan one dark night, waging war against them.

Dammit! 

The location of their fortress had been discovered!

And it wasn't just the fortress they were in that got noticed, but several others too.

In short, that year, they lost 11 fortresses out of the 16 they had.

It goes without saying that they also lost 7/10th of how many members they had left.

And it was all because of Her!!

The best had betrayed them!!

How did they know?

Because during the night when the people stormed in, while everyone had been struggling to fight and escape, the brat had been making her way towards those who killed that boy.

Yes... She wanted revenge.

That night, she did succeed in killing one of them... But, the other person managed to survive after getting stabbed and painfully dragged herself towards the secret escape route with revenge burning in her eyes.

And who was this person that got stabbed?

Of course, it was none other than the current Head Witch!

Head Witch Jimila!

That's right 

She was one of the 16-year-old girls who accompanied Lucy's mother during that mission.

.

After the incident, the few surviving witches regrouped in the other fortresses that hadn't been discovered yet.

And with that, they immediately began their plan of reproduction, as well as changing some rules to ensure that nothing of this sort ever happened again.

The catastrophe of that year was one that no witch ever wanted to remember.

And it was all caused by a little 13-year-old girl.

They were so shocked that all the time that they thought she was locked up in the punishment cells, she had somehow managed to escape night after night.

So who knew what else she had been cooking up that entire time?

She was indeed a dangerous one.

Because they were scared that she wouldn't give up until her revenge was complete, they started looking for her instead.

But no matter how they searched, they never found her.

It was as if she had vanished from Tenola completely.

And they were right.

Who knew that she would be hiding in Arcadina?

She even got married, treated poorly and died just like that?

Ridiculous!

Jimila felt it was impossible.

The woman they knew was a cold-hearted beast and not this weakling they all read about.

Tsk.

She was dead.

So what?

Her daughter would pay the price for her sins!
