Chapter 542 - 542: Surrounded

He also started feeling the ground vibrate. He turned around, frowning. 

He could see a Golden Rhino coming from the back. The Rhino was so heavy that he was making the ground shake with each step. 

"That's odd. Why are they all coming here?" Hun asked, frowning. 

The flaming phoenix was the first to reach him. She turned to a human, landing a few meters away from Hun. Her deep eyes were still as emotionless, but there was something cute about her. 

She was dressed in the same red robe as the last time when Lucifer saw her.

Finding her standing in his close proximity, Hun's face started twitching as he felt repulsed. He didn't want to stand close to the lady if he didn't have to. 

The Thunder Lion was coming towards him. 

The Thunder Lion also turned to a human as his body shrunk. He stood on two feet, looking no different than an ordinary human. 

He looked to be a young man who was in his early twenties. His long blue hair came down to his waist, matching the color of his eyes. The dark-skinned man looked at Lucifer and his team members. 

In the back, the Golden Rhino also reached them, and the shaking of the ground finally stopped. 

The Rhino also turned into a human, but he looked different than others. He was much taller than expected. He looked to be over seven feet tall, contrary to the human forms of the other High Beasts that were all under six feet of height in their human form. 

Another difference was that his hair was blonde, and his pupils were golden in color. His body also appeared to be very bulky, as if he was a wrestler in this world who could punch anyone to oblivion.

If one were to go by looks, they would certainly think that he was able to defeat all the other High Gods present here. 

"So these are the High Beasts that came to attack the city," the Golden Rhino said calmly. "Now, I don't care if any High Beast in the city is killed, but I care about the reputation of my city. I'm not going to let any foreigner kill them."

The Thunder Beast was much calmer. He looked at Lucifer. "You are leading. So you should be the stronger one. Isn't that right? May I ask your purpose in coming to our city? Because it doesn't look like you're here to attack anyone, or you would've attacked already."

The red-haired lady remained silent. 

"We aren't here to attack anyone. As for why we're here, we already told him. It's not to have any conflict. So you don't need to get alert," Lucifer replied before taking a casual glance at the lady. 

"Are they telling the truth?" The Thunder Lion asked Hun. 

"Even though I don't need to answer the likes of you, I'll say that it's right. They're on a trip to see this world, and they've been traveling for six months. They just wanted a place to rest," Hun responded. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go back."

The way he talked to the others, it was evident that he didn't like the others. The same was the case for others. 

"Well, that's a waste. I wasted my time for nothing. I was told that three High Beasts were here to kill you. It was insulting for the city, so I came in a hurry. What a mess," The Golden Rhino let out, rolling his eyes.

"Even if they aren't here to attack us, we can't let them stay in our city. They might have ulterior motives. You can't let them stay with you," The Thunder Lions commanded Hun. 

"Who the hell do you think you are to command me like that? You don't decide what I do! In fact, at first, I was going to let my father decide if they could stay here or not, but since you liked commanding me so much, I promise that they'll stay in my Mansion!" Hun declared, enraged. 

He looked to Lucifer. "I promise you! You can stay here for as long as you want! It's the promise of a High Beast! You can count on it!"

Lucifer smiled, nodding. He believed he should've thanked the other High Beasts for coming here. It was because of them that he got a promise like that. Moreover, this was also an opportunity for him to seize.

"Good decision. If I were in your place, I would've done the same thing. No one has any right to command another High Beast like that," Lucifer said, smiling. 

He shifted his gaze to the Thunder Lion. 

"I can say for sure that I'm not here with any ulterior motive, but even if I was, you shouldn't talk to him like that! He's a High Beast too. And you aren't superior to him. At best, you'll be equal."

Hearing Lucifer side with him, Hun grew happy. Unlike the other High Beasts, he didn't get any negative feelings from Lucifer, which made him biased towards him. Moreover, to see him support him, it made him even more impressed. 

"Hahaha, don't worry. They are just jealous that I made new friends. Come, let me show you my home!" Hun said as he happily patted his shoulder.

Instead of walking behind, he now walked with Lucifer in extremely close proximity. 

Leaving the other three beasts behind, he walked away. 

As Lucifer left, he didn't forget to take another glance at the red-haired lady who hadn't spoken a single word since the start. The lady just kept looking at him from beginning to end. 

"This idiot... Whatever. If he wants to be stupid, then so be it," The Golden Rhino muttered, sighing as she shook her head. 

He started walking away lazily. He had come here in a hurry, even going back to his real form just so he could travel faster, but there wasn't any need for that now.

The Thunder Lion kept glaring at Lucifer's back, frowning. He was still suspicious. The appearance of three High Beasts that were so close to each other? 

That wasn't something ordinary. It was a cause to be concerned about, especially when they were trying to get close to a High Beast family in the city. 

He turned around and left as well, not willing to take any action so soon. 

The red-haired woman still stood there, looking at Lucifer. She only took her eyes off of him when he disappeared. She also turned around and left. 

It was unclear what was going on in her head since she was the only one here who hadn't spoken anything at all.
