Chapter 878: Chapter 878: Selection

Everyone looked at Lucifer, eagerly waiting for his answer to this odd question. Was he really going to marry one of the three ladies? And if yes, who was it going to be?

Lucifer was like a little brother to Kellian, who certainly wanted to attend Lucifer’s wedding and celebrate with him. As for Salazar, he had seen Lucifer being rejected by the little phoenix back at the Realm of Summons. Lucifer had come so far from that day.

Now he had three people to select from. Salazar was very clear about these things. He could feel that all three Ladies were going to agree if Lucifer said yes.

Lucifer glanced at Alicia, standing in the back, before shifting his gaze to Milena. Milena seemed most shocked by this question. She couldn’t even look in Lucifer’s eyes. Only Eve stood calm behind Lucifer.

“Knock, knock!” There was a knock on the door.

“I’ll be right back,” Lucifer stood up and went to the door, taking a hasty retreat. He was happy that there was a knock at this time as he was saved from this question since he hadn’t thought about such things yet.

Lucifer opened the door, wondering who it could be. All the special people from Uprising were already inside. Did something happen outside which needed them to be informed?

As soon as Lucifer opened the door, a slightly surprised look graced his face. He could see many people standing outside, but there were a few faces he recognized.

The one who stood at the front was none other than Grandpa Chi!

Without thinking, Lucifer hugged the old man. “You came just at the right time. If you hadn’t come, I would’ve come to meet you before leaving.”

“Leaving? Where are you going?” The old man asked.

“It’s a long story,” Lucifer responded. ” I’ll tell you later.”

“By the way, that must be your wife and son? They look so nice,” he added, noticing the family of Grandpa Chi which he brought with him.

“Yeah. I don’t know how they got back, but I’m sure you had a hand in it, didn’t you?” The old man inquired.

Lucifer just smiled and didn’t say anything.

He freed the old man and shifted his attention to Cassius, who stood beside him. “You came as well.”

“Am I not allowed?” Cassius asked, sighing. “I know you saved me, so I came to thank you. No matter what mistakes I make, you will always be my best friend. I wanted to be here to make sure you were fine.”

“Of course, you are allowed to be here. It’s a happy day, so I will let go of what you did,” Lucifer responded.

“Recognize them?” Cassius asked, pointing at the two young men in the back.

“How can I forget them. My roommates at the academy,” Lucifer let out, smiling. “You are here as well. Welcome to Triton.”

“I don’t recognize him though. Who is he?” He asked, observing the middle-aged man in the back.

“He is my father. He also wanted to come to thank you for what you did,” Cassius responded.

His father took the lead. “Lucifer Azarel, I used to think that you were a villain when you attacked the island. But my son told me why you did it and what was done to you. Even though it still doesn’t justify your actions, what you did just recently saved the lives of everyone. So I’m here to thank you.”

He bowed respectfully, despite being before a man much younger than him.

“I didn’t see you attacking me on the Island with Xaen. So I don’t have any enmity with you. I accept your gratitude. Come inside.”

Lucifer stepped aside, letting everyone in. He took them all to his family and introduced each other.

Cassius was most surprised to see the parents of Lucifer being present here, along with so many people that he had personally seen die when he was with Lucifer.

He was so shocked that he couldn’t speak. Was it an illusion, or were they really back? He looked at Lucifer blankly.

As if reading his mind, Lucifer nodded. “You are right. I brought them all back from death, just like I brought back your abilities that you had lost because of Xaen. I changed reality.”

“What?” Not only Cassius but even his father was stunned to his core. Lucifer had brought them all back to life? He had the strength to change reality? Just what kind of a monster was he?

Lucifer simply shrugged his shoulders. “You all talk; I’ll be right back.”

Leaving everyone back in the room, Lucifer’s figure disappeared as he teleported to an unknown location. No one knew where he went.

Lucifer appeared on the roof of the Warlock Council, sitting at the edge, looking at the beautiful sun in the distance.

He was all alone in this place, observing the sun. So much had changed in this world, but there were also so many things that were still the same. The sun was still providing warmth to earth like it often did. Even Lucifer could feel its warmth.

“Everyone is back now. Everyone is happy now. I can leave them here without any worries, but the threat isn’t over yet,” Lucifer muttered as if talking to himself.

“Star Alliance knows the location of the earth now. If… No, not if. When they go against me, they will target earth, taking it hostage. Just like I know about them now, they know about me. And the file of Joana… Star Alliance is not a friend even if they aren’t enemies yet.”

“If the future comes to fruition, they would be the first to turn on me as they already did. This problem needs to be solved. But now I have the means to control it. As soon as I get my answers, I will begin my plan!” Lucifer declared, clenching his fist as he promised himself.

“But first, there is something I need to do. While I’m at it, let’s get it done!” He stood up, stretching his arms.

Now that he had met his family and made sure that they were fine, he could leave and get things done.

Without asking anyone’s permission, Lucifer flew away before disappearing into the horizon. It was unclear where he was going, but one thing was clear. He was really serious about what he was going to do.

Even though he had promised his family that he was going to take a month, he wanted to finish such things fast, and before that, he needed something else.

He had already planted a seed in the past. Now was the time to harvest the seed.
