Chapter 156: Demon Eye

Lucifer just watched the brain and Berde fix the carriage and make it useable again.

Well, it was mostly Berde who was doing the hard work since the brain cannot exactly do that kind of stuff.

He was the one who picked up the parts of the carriage that Lucifer had just broken.

It was not that big of a deal, and he was able to fix the carriage in just a few minutes.

Well, it's not like the carriage is advanced technology or anything of the sort that would need an expert to fix it.

If one knows enough about the structure of the carriage, then one would be able to build one.

That's just how it is, and it seems that Berde definitely knows the structure of the carriage for him to be able to fix the carriage in no time just like this.

Anyway, when the carriage was finally fixed, the brain...finally started to work.

Of course, his work was...getting the illusion started again.

It was kind of weird that the horses, physical living beings that were pulling the carriage, is just an illusion created by magic.

Although magic can really push things or move things, an illusion...is just an illusion.

Illusion just makes one see things that are usually not there. A misdirection of some kind.

That was why it is really weird that the horses, which the brain said were created by illusion, would be able to make the carriage move by pulling it physically.

It was weird, and even Lucifer did not know the mechanisms behind this trickery or illusion or anything of the sort.

Why? It is because Lucifer is not really that expert when it comes to illusions and that kind of stuff.

Of course, he knows illusion once he sees illusion, and he would also be able to know how to counter that kind of illusion.

But that does not really mean that Lucifer knows illusion.

That was why Lucifer was really interested in how the illusion horses would be able to pull the carriage.

After all, they are just not...in the same category.

The carriage is a real thing, a physical thing that one can touch.

The illusion horses are... an illusion. It is different.

Of course, there might have been the case where Lucifer even believed that the horses were real considering that Lucifer was able to kill them.

And that is more reason why Lucifer is interested in this.

It felt as if the horses were real, which is why he did not even think that the horses were some kind of magic or anything of the sort.

Of course, Lucifer knew that there are magic horses, but those are real horses, one that exists that is just equipped with magic.

They are not really made with magic.

That was why Lucifer is watching the brain closely as the brain got into work so that he would be able to find out the logic behind the illusion horses.

If Lucifer is interested in it, no matter how stupid or little it may be, it would definitely come in handy.

Lucifer knows this as well, so it is not really a new thing for him to become interested in things like these.

Anyway, the brain went to work as he finally began...to think.

Well, that was really the only thing that the brain could do. He could only think.

However, what he thought of is not that simple use of magic or anything of the sort.

In fact, what the brain is thinking right now is a very complex structure of a magic circle.

And as soon as the brain was able to trace that very complex structure of a magic circle, a magic circle...appeared right below the brain.

Berde was near to the brain, so when the magic circle appeared, he jumped behind to stay away from it.

Since Berde already knew the process of this thing, he knew that he should not come into contact with the magic circle that appeared below the brain.

Coming into contact with the magic circle that appeared below the brain might mess up the concentration of the brain and most importantly, the whole entire process, and might even endanger the brain.

Since the brain is really concentrated on this very complex structure of a magic circle, if someone just disturbs him on that kind of high level of concentration, then it might hurt his consciousness.

Well, they don't really know if that may happen, but it is best to stay on the safer side of things, which is why Berde did not want to come into contact with the magic circle.

Of course, since he stepped back a little bit, he was now near...to Lucifer.

In fact, he's a little too near to Lucifer since Berde literally is right beside Lucifer right now.

"I'm guessing that magic circle has been given to your master by another individual?" Lucifer's voice resounded out in Berde's ears, and this made Berde all startled up, thinking that Lucifer snuck up behind him.

However, Berde was able to realize that it was because he jumped right beside Lucifer that Lucifer is near him, which is why...Berde just got a hold of himself and backed off a few steps from Lucifer.

He then calmed himself down, and after calming down, he spoke.

"You have a good eye. It is the truth that the magic circle has been given by another individual. This individual is a master at his technique, a master illusionist."

"His techniques are just superb that it makes his illusion...come into real life."

"However, even though we have been given the magic circle to one of his superb techniques does not mean that we know the mechanics behind it."

"Even my master does not know how it works."

Berde said the truth.

Well, it is the truth that they do not know how this thing works.

The master illusionist just told them that they needed to activate the very complex structure of a magic circle, and the brain would just have to supply it with mana, and the illusion would work just fine.

Naturally, Berde and the brain did not dare to ask the master illusionist how his techniques work since that would just be outright...rude.

No one asks how another's technique works as the other individual might think that they are studying him in order to beat him.

Anyway, Lucifer was able to hear what Berde just said and he thought that it made perfect sense.

If it were just given by another individual, then there's no way that Berde and the brain would know how the whole setup of the illusion works.

Lucifer understands that, but he does not really care about it.

He was not really planning on asking the brain or Berde how the illusion works.

Since they were now in a relationship where one could call them 'friends,' Lucifer did not really want to destroy that kind of friendship by asking how their powers work.

After all, Lucifer still needed them so that he would be able to get inside the Luciferian Empire safely without being detected.

Anyway, Lucifer was able to notice that the brain is not really the one who created the magic circle or anything of the sort.

He just activated it, and Lucifer was able to know that it was created by someone else.

And it did not really matter to Lucifer since...he would just analyze the very complex structure of the magic circle to find out how this thing works.

Even though Lucifer does not really specialize in illusion and that kind of stuff, if he sees the bare magic circle, then he would be able to find out how the magic works, and he would even be able to recreate it, decipher it, and even disable it if he sees it again at some point of his life.

This much is only natural considering that he is a Hell God, and a Hell God does not really have any limits when it comes to magic and stuff like that.

In fact, any Hell God would be able to master any kind of martial arts or anything of the sort.

However, because they became a Hell God with the martial arts that they already mastered, they did not really care to pick up a new martial art to do.

That is the same case for Lucifer. Hell, he is not even interested in fighting with illusion since that's not just his preference.

However, because this thing is so interesting, Lucifer ended up thinking that this is how illusions are used nowadays.

Lucifer knows that if this is how illusions are used nowadays, he would need to find out everything about it.

And in order to find out everything about the illusion, there's only one solution for this.

'Demon Eye.' Lucifer thought as he activated one of his powers...the Demon Eye.

He did this as discreetly as he could in order to not attract attention to himself.

Although Lucifer's Demon Eye is mainly used for attacking, it definitely can be used to analyze things perfectly and within seconds.

That is the reason why Lucifer went to work right away after activating the Demon Eye.
