One True God - Chapter 129
Raya Pazier tried to suggest something to Falkor as she spoke.
“L-Lucis…no, Lucifer. If you go to the Luciferian Empire and somehow picked a fight with them, we wouldn’t be able to survive.”
“Even if you are powerful, there are many demons who are on the demon king level there.”
“And there are even rumors that there are some ancient demons backing the Luciferian Empire.”
“And as you know…talking bad to a Hell God is something that the religions based on them can pick up.”
“Therefore, the Luciferian Empire would hunt you down the moment they get there because…you said that…y-you are Lucifer.”
Raya Pazier said those words with great hesitation in her voice and face.
Well, it was only natural that she would be hesitating. What she said just basically meant that she didn’t trust Lucifer in what he said about his identity.
In other words, she didn’t believe him.
And…that must anger Lucifer as Lucifer even tried to reassure Raya Pazier that he is indeed Lucifer, which is why Raya Pazier hesitated to say those words as she understood that.
However, she still needed to say it as it would just be too dangerous to go to the Luciferian Empire right now.
And since Lucifer said that Kars is there, it must mean that Kars is there to go on and see some official of the Luciferian Empire and invite them to a war with the Zacharath Kingdom.
As Raya Pazier is someone who went against the Warmester Denoble House and Kars, she knew Kars’ way of thinking so she was quite sure of that.
What’s more, Raya Pazier is also sure that…
“T-that’s not all…I am pretty sure that Kars is there to ask the Luciferian Empire to attack the Zacharath Kingdom.”
“And I am also confident that they have already reached a conclusion and made a deal.”
“In other words, going to the Luciferian Empire to kill Kars is one of the worst moves that you can make right now in this situation.”
Raya Pazier said those words as determined as she could while looking at Lucifer.
Basically telling that Lucifer’s plan is one of the worst moves that he can make in this situation must certainly take a lot of guts.
Even though Raya Pazier had not seen Lucifer when he is angry, she still knew that Lucifer is a cold-hearted bastard who would kill anyone without even batting an eye.
That was why…she was scared. Normally, Raya Pazier would be able to fight against any demon without any fear, but…because Raya Pazier knows that Lucifer is an ancient demon, the fear is there, stuck in her heart.
However, even though Raya Pazier thought that Lucifer would get angry and all that stuff, Lucifer…did not get angry.
In fact, he did the opposite. He became happy! How? He smiled while looking at Raya Pazier!
However, the smile was not threatening nor was it scary at all! It was a smile that just seems to be so happy and proud.
Of course, Lucifer’s smile wasn’t that really big or anything of the sort, but it just had that sort of mood in it.
And this is because…it was the truth that Lucifer is happy and proud.
He is happy and proud that his servant can also think in a matter of a heartbeat.
What’s more, just because Raya Pazier learned that Kars is in the Luciferian Empire, she concluded that Kars is there to make a deal with the Luciferian Empire.
And that is exactly Lucifer’s thoughts about this entire matter.
The fact that Raya Pazier was able to come to the same conclusion as Lucifer is a piece of good news for Lucifer as this would mean that Raya Pazier got the brains.
And it was in this kind of mood that Lucifer spoke again while looking at Raya Pazier.
“Well, what you said is the truth. But it seems that you really do not trust me that I am Lucifer, eh?”
“Anyway, the name of this empire is Luciferian Empire. In other words, it is…my empire.”
“Now that I regained some of my power back, I think it is time to change the hands of the throne of the Luciferian Empire as well, hmm?”
“I’ve heard that the Emperor of the Luciferian Empire is someone who does not follow my laws.”
“It disdains me – that the one who governs over an empire named after me is someone who does not even recognize my name.”
“Do you understand? Even if you do not believe me and want to stop me from going to the Luciferian Empire, it is impossible, Raya Pazier.”
Lucifer said those words with the same smile on his face, but…the mood of the smile drastically changed now.
The mood of his smile was just…scary that it wasn’t even enough to describe it as scary.
But the reason why Lucifer did something like this is to make sure that he would get his point across Raya Pazier’s mind.
In other words, he wanted to make sure that Raya Pazier understands that there is nothing that could stop him from going to the Luciferian Empire.
Naturally, Raya Pazier could get that when she saw it happen right in front of her – the change in Lucifer’s face.
The look of an angel that just seems to be proud that suddenly changed into the look of a devil that just seems ready to kill anybody that stands in its way.
That was why…Raya Pazier could only bite her lips as she answered.
“I-I understand, but…what about the Warmester Denoble House? If you leave, then if someone attacks or rebels against Rouge, there is nothing that we could do.”
“At least, give us something so that we can rest assured while you are on your journey to the Luciferian Empire.”
Raya Pazier said those words even though Lucifer still had the smile of a devil on her face.
Well, it is because she knew that Lucifer…would agree on this.
Lucifer knew that it would be extremely dangerous to leave Rouge and Raya Pazier all alone in the Warmester Denoble House, so Raya Pazier thought that he would understand.
And she was right on the money as Lucifer nodded his head.
“Mhm. That’s what I intend to do. I shall leave Nocturnal Phantom with you two.”
“However, I will not let him possess Rouge, or you, Raya Pazier.”
“I shall let him possess…Oumu, that guy.”
“Nocturnal Phantom is a reliable servant of mine. He is one of my generals back then.”
“Although he never really got the fame because he always worked in the shadows.”
“However, make no mistake when you are around him as he would chop your head off once he hears you talking shit.”
“Am I understood?” Lucifer said.
However, he didn’t even wait for Rouge and Raya Pazier to answer his question as he just stood up from his seat.
His seat…suddenly turned into dust and nothing remained, and Lucifer was standing now.
“I won’t take no for an answer. You two understood me.”
“Now then, Rouge, stand up. I shall leave a parting gift for you as a reward for your diligent work.”
Lucifer said, and as soon as he said those words, Rouge just instinctively stood up.
Why? It was because he could feel the same aura…that Lucifer had that night when he tortured Rouge with the nightmare.
And as soon as Rouge stood up, Lucifer tapped his forehead with two of his fingers, wrapped with some kind of light.
Tap! Lucifer’s fingers tapping Rouge’s forehead resounded out in this place, but that was not all as the light surrounding Lucifer’s fingers enveloped Rouge’s forehead…head, and eventually, it wrapped his whole body.
However, the light didn’t stay on his body as it disappeared soon enough.
All these things happened in the blink of an eye, but…it was definitely not the blink of an eye for Rouge as his eyes were wide open right now.
His eyes were wide open as realizations came onto his mind so naturally.
Realizations about his strength…his techniques…his powers…and most importantly, realization on how to become strong.
“T-this is!” Rouge murmured as he unraveled the secrets on how to become stronger than he currently is right now.
“W-what? What’s going on?” Raya Pazier said out loud as she looked back in forth between Lucifer and Rouge with confusion in her eyes.
And Lucifer was…he was just smiling as he looked at Rouge.
“Do not disappoint me, Rouge.” Lucifer said.
And as soon as Lucifer said those words, his body turned into the darkness and he soon disappeared from this place.
His destination was, of course, the place where Oumu and Nocturnal Phantom was located.
His purpose is to tell Nocturnal Phantom that he is to stay with Oumu and then act as the guard dog for Rouge and the Warmester Denoble House, protecting it from any other enemies that might come for them.
And as soon as he disappeared from this place, Rouge’s knees gave up and his knees buckled, making him fall to the ground.
However, he was not the only one that fell as his tears…also fell from his eyes.
“O-Oh…this…this is!” Rouge shouted joyfully.
This is because of the fact that he now knows how to become strong, and it just happened with the tap of a finger.
It was so amazing that it moved Rouge…wholeheartedly.
“W-what’s going on?” Raya Pazier asked Rouge as she was left confused in this situation.
