Chapter 23: Lucis Ferre

It didn't take long for the crowd of exam takers to arrive at their destination.

After all, it was something done by magic. And the magic is probably done by some powerful master.

Of course, Lucifer thinks that as well as he looked at the surroundings.

'Hmm. They chopped us down.' Lucifer thought as his eyes wandered around in this room.

The room that he was in right now didn't have much difference compared to the room that he was in before.

It was still bland and boring, but it was big enough for one to conduct an exam.

Well, Lucifer predicted that this exam that would take place was a fighting exam.

Anyway, Lucifer could see that the participants have gone down.

Lucifer could see a thousand people before, but now...Lucifer could only see at least a hundred people participating here.

What's more, there was something like a tower in the middle of the room.

Of course, this room had enough space even with that tower.

'Amazing. Whoever separated us is strong.' Lucifer thought as he started walking towards a corner where not many people were staying.

He was thinking about how the one who separated them is strong. After all, not even Lucifer was able to tell how he was able to do that.

Of course, that was just because Lucifer didn't pay close attention.

However, the fact that he could take Lucifer off guard means something else.

'Interesting. Very, very, very interesting." Lucifer thought.

He was excited about this whole exam thing now. He was excited to see who the hell was able to separate the people.

It was quite amazing how he was excited on the inside, but his face was completely blank.

It was then that something approached him. Of course, Lucifer was able to tell immediately as he was the only person here.

"Hey, are you alone?" The guy who approached Lucifer said.

However, Lucifer couldn't care about that guy and just decided to ignore him.

After all, why should he socialize with weaklings? One should prove one's worth first before even being able to come in the presence of a Hell God.

Of course, there's no way this man would know that Lucifer was a Hell God.

Lucifer looked like just a normal teenage boy who was too handsome for his sake.

"My name is Asgo. I'm taking the exam as well. How about we work together?"

Asgo said as he moved his hand up for a handshake.

Of course, Lucifer didn't take that. Well, he didn't even know about that handshake or whatnot.

Lucifer was definitely behind the times.

And while he was looking at Asgo, who just introduced himself, there was something Lucifer was curious about.

'What do I...call myself as?' Lucifer thought as he looked at Asgo's hand.

Lucifer intended to be low key or under the radar for a while as he intends to get his powers back.

He didn't want his previous or past enemies to come at him while he was still weak and recuperating from his physical condition.

That was why Lucifer knew that he couldn't just blatantly introduce himself as Lucifer.

After all, even though most demons would think that he was just an imposter, there would definitely be some who would investigate.

And if even a few were able to sniff him out, Lucifer would be in a bad situation.

It was then that Lucifer suddenly remembered something in the past.

And that was...

'Ah, I can use my other name.' Lucifer thought as he turned his body half-way in another direction.

"My name is Lucis Ferre." Lucifer said as he started walking towards another place where there were not many people located.

He only responded because he wanted to establish his name as Lucis Ferre.

However, it seems that Asgo wouldn't let that go as he walked in front of Lucifer and stopped him.

"Nice to meet you, Lucis! You have a last name, huh? Are you from a Denoble house or something like that?"

"Oh! Am I being too rude? Tell me, and I would fix it immediately."

As Lucifer had a last name or something like that when he introduced himself, Asgo thought that he was a Denoble.

Denoble.

It is what one calls a demon when a demon belongs to a family that is important, powerful, influential, and many more.

A Denoble house is something one would find in any kingdoms as it is one of the foundations of a kingdom.

Of course, not every house could become a Denoble house. One must have a hereditary heritage or perform outstanding achievements to become one.

That is why a Denoble is strong, powerful, and more often feared by other demons.

After all, a Denoble could basically kill anyone and still get away with it even with a kingdom's laws or rules.

And that was why Asgo would apologize immediately if Lucifer were one.

Of course, Lucifer is a being more important than any Denoble.

"No, it's something I got from a book." Lucifer said as he looked at Asgo.

Although he didn't want to talk with this piece of shit, Lucifer had no choice.

He couldn't kill him in here where people would immediately know, and he also couldn't just ignore him.

After all, if this guy made a fuss, many more people would come to know of his existence.

And that was why Lucifer thought it best just to take advantage of this guy.

After all, he was already giving himself to Lucifer. Lucifer would be stupid if he didn't take this offer.

"Oh, I see! Well, you shouldn't tell that to other demons, alright? Having a last name when you're just a commoner is forbidden!"

Asgo said as he smiled. It seems that he was happy that Lucifer was now talking.

After all, he did come here to talk.

"Anyway, how about working with me? Let's pass this entrance exam together!"

"We would be able to pass any exam better if we have two heads working on it, don't you think?"

Asgo said, but Lucifer wasn't listening.

He was just astounded at what he heard.

'What the? Having a last name is forbidden? What in the name of angels is this fucking law?'

After all, it was just that surprising.
