One True God - Chapter 160

‘Hmm? There’s something leaking from him…’ The brain thought as he ‘looked’ at Lucifer.

The brain focused on this something leaking from Lucifer better as he tried to close in on it with his senses.

Well, the only senses that the brain would have is…nothing. He could only feel around with his magic and try to make out what kind of object or living creature he is dealing with by using his brain and thinking faster than ever.

Of course, this is what the brain did as he focused on this…strange something that was leaking from Lucifer.

And what he could make out from this is…nothing.

Since the brain really could not see or feel, he does not know what to think if…he has not come across with it.

Naturally, the brain was able to realize this as soon as he was born, and he made sure to familiarize himself with as many things as possible, and even living creatures to make sure that he would not get lost down the line if ever he loses his subordinates.

That was an easy thing for him to decide right away since the brain is aware of his limitations.

But…if the brain was not able to come across something else before, then there is no way for him to know if he comes across it now.

And that is exactly what is happening right now.

The brain…does not know what kind of leakage Lucifer is having.

And that was why the brain is panicking.

‘What do I do…is that a threat to us? No, if that’s a threat, then Berde would have said something already…’

The brain did not know if what was leaking from Lucifer was a threat to him or no.

He did not know if it was something good. Of course, since Berde did not really say or react to anything about it, then it only means that it is not a threat to them.

However…since Lucifer is a lot stronger than Berde, it could just be that Berde is not able to pick up on this something leaking from Lucifer, thus making him unable to react to it.

After all, if he does not know about it, then there is nothing he can say about it.

It is as simple as that, and that is the reason why the brain was panicking.

There is also the reason that the brain would not be able to alert Berde without Lucifer noticing it.

Lucifer is stronger than them, and his senses would be a lot more sensitive than normal.

His senses should be able to pick up an ant’s movement from the ground without any problem.

There is no mistaking it that Lucifer would be able to notice it even if the brain whispers to Berde’s ear from a very close point.

There are a lot of reasons why the brain is panicking and all of them are reasonable.

Lucifer is not really a friend to them. If anything, he is actually an enemy that the brain just did not choose to fight because he is too strong to fight.

If they actually fought, there is no doubt that the brain and Berde would have already died ever since they met Lucifer.

‘Think, me! I am a brain…and all I do is think! So I have to think of something that would be able to solve this situation. Or if not that, I should be able to find out the identity of whatever’s leaking out from this guy!’ The brain hyped himself up.

Well, it is the truth that all that the brain does is thinking. If anything, thinking is his specialty since that’s the only thing that he can really do.

And since that’s the only thing he can really do, the brain decided that he would be better than anyone.

That was why he hyped himself up with a newfound determination in order to solve this situation.

Well, solving this situation when Lucifer is a lot stronger than the two of them is impossible.

The only thing that the brain would be able to do is to somehow dissolve this situation and make peace with Lucifer.

‘How do I make peace with him…ah! I can use a conversation and find out what I can please him with…’ The brain thought.

Also, the brain thought that if he talked with Lucifer, he would have enough clues to find out what it is that’s leaking from Lucifer.

He would be able to find out by…probing around Lucifer’s emotions while they are talking.

If Lucifer is angry and the leakage from his grows stronger, then it means that whatever is leaking from Lucifer is a threat to the brain and Berde.

If Lucifer is angry and the leakage from his does not grow any stronger, then it means that it is not something that they should be wary of.

It is just simple logic, but it is really useful in this current situation.

That was why…as soon as the brain thought of this method, he quickly moved…his ‘body’ towards Lucifer.

Lucifer…noticed that the brain was moving towards him, but he did not speak.

Well, it is because it was the one who approached him first. It was only natural that the one who approached first is the one who would also speak.

And that is exactly what the brain did as he spoke, “I have no intentions to know your business but may I ask something?”

The brain asked Lucifer, and Lucifer just nodded his head slightly.

Well, Lucifer is still thinking about how he would be able to have the information of the identity of the creator of the illusion magic from the brain and Berde.

Incidentally, Berde just walked alongside the brain when he noticed that the brain moved towards Lucifer.

He did not ask anything since…he does not need to ask anything since the one who calls the shots in here is the brain, his lord.

Anyway, when the brain ‘saw’ that Lucifer moved his head in agreement, he quickly asked his question.

“May I ask this gentleman why he is going to the Luciferian Empire?”

The brain asked…about their common destination; the Luciferian Empire.

This is something that the brain could really use for a conversation since they both share this destination, and it is not really private information unless Lucifer is going there to do shady business.

Of course, the brain already knows that Lucifer is there to do shady business.

Someone of his strength just does not come around so normally. If someone of his strength goes out, it is more than likely…they are out for blood.

That’s just how strong and rare a demon as powerful as Lucifer is.

Well, Lucifer is stronger than what he showed these two, but that’s not the point.

The brain…does not care if Lucifer is planning to do shady business in the Luciferian Empire.

Right, he does not care about it.

Why? It is because the brain is also going to the Luciferian Empire to do shady business.

In other words, they were the same kin.

The brain gambled on Lucifer. He gambled whether Lucifer is also aware that the brain is going to the Luciferian Empire to do shady business, just like him.

Of course, if Lucifer is aware that the brain is going to the Luciferian Empire to do shady business, just like him, it is more than likely that he would also tell the reason why he is going to the Luciferian Empire.

At least, that’s what the brain thought in this situation.

And what Lucifer is thinking right now is…well, to simplify it, Lucifer is feeling happy right now.

Lucifer is actually puzzled on whether he should start a conversation with the brain, but here the brain was, starting a conversation with him.

In this scenario, Lucifer is definitely winning a lot more than the brain.

After all, the brain is only talking to Lucifer due to the mysterious substance that was leaking from Lucifer, which is…something that Lucifer is not even aware of.

But Lucifer could use this conversation to find out the identity of the creator of the illusion magic without looking suspicious, too.

Of course, Lucifer did not really know why the brain just started a conversation with him, and he does not give a fuck why.

The only thought that Lucifer had, in this case, is how he would be able to exploit this situation.

And to do that, he would have to talk.

“Hmm…the reason why I am going to the Luciferian Empire…is simple.”

“It is because I need to meet someone there. I think you are aware of the man who I am about to meet.”

“His name is…Kars…Kars Warmester. Or was that his full name? I’m not too sure if I remember right.”

Lucifer said, and he just gave a piece of very important information right away to the brain.

Well, it is because it is not really a very important piece of information to Lucifer.

What Lucifer would do to Kars is that he would just kill him.

Of course, when the brain heard this, he was shocked.

‘What?!’ The brain thought.
