Wicked follow-up to intro from Daytona Demon (5)
I believe the answer is:
devil
'demon' is the definition.
(I know that demon can be written as devil)
'wicked follow-up to intro from daytona' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'wicked' could be 'evil' (synonyms) and 'evil' is located in the answer.
A single letter 'd' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for devil that I've seen before include "Archfiend" , "Wicked spirit" , "Wicked person" , "Unsurpassed" , "Lived with Satan" .)
