Chapter 841: My domain

Lucifer was curious about the shadow in the back, but he turned his back on it and started following Licorice.

He started following Licorice, leaving the shadow behind. Milen and everyone else stayed behind to see who had dared to infiltrate and who could still resist.

Out of all of them, Milen was the most eager. He had seen the other Lucifer. He wanted to know how it was possible? Two people, and none of them was a clone, under the control of others? None of them were connected either.

~~~

Lucifer had just warned Jian and others to prepare for battle, but instead of looking concerned, Jian looked excited. It had been a long time since he had cleared a Dungeon.

Moreover, this Dungeon was supposedly a higher grade Dungeon as well, which was another experience in itself that he didn't want to miss.

"Mental attacks are such child's play. If that's all they have, do we even need to worry?" Jian smirked. His mind was already connected to someone else who was there to protect him. He didn't need to worry about mental attacks.

He was very eager to get in on the action. However, he couldn't go ahead alone. He needed to wait for Lucifer, who was still under the mental attacks that were only getting stronger. It was as if someone was smacking on the barrier around his head with a hammer.

"Are you alright?" Milena placed her hand on the shoulder of Lucifer, who seemed distracted.

"I am fine. I just don't know how long I can last under the mental thrashing," Lucifer responded, rubbing his forehead.

"Isn't the solution simple? Before the enemies break through your defenses, you crack theirs," Jian suggested.

"Can you do that? Use that connection to target him back?" Milena asked, misunderstanding the suggestion of Jian as him asking Lucifer to respond to a mental attack with a mental attack.

However, Lucifer understood his meaning properly. He smiled in response. "You're not wrong. I don't want to risk myself falling under his control. So we might as well forget the old plan. The new plan is for us to go crazy."

He turned to Milena, hugging her as he whispered. "Milena, you won't join the battle. You'll be tasked to go ahead and find my family. I'm sure they're inside that space as well. As soon as you locate them, try to get them out and alert us. We'll keep everyone else busy. They shouldn't know that you are here."

He didn't want Jian to know that his family was alive, at least not right now when he needed him. If he knew that his family was there, he could forget the alliance and go for revenge.

The only reason Jian could even come down to working together was because he thought they were equal. Lucifer didn't want him to know the truth that he had failed. He wanted to keep Jian in a misunderstanding in which he was living until recently.

"What are you two lovebirds talking about? Saying your last goodbyes?" Jian shook his head, turning his back on Lucifer. "If you're done with your public display of affection, can we get to work?"

Lucifer nodded. He gave Milena a look before he also turned around and started flying in the direction of the Dungeon Dwellers.

Within a few minutes, Lucifer reached the end of the cave where the barrier was previously placed. Since the barrier had disappeared, he could see inside clearly.

His eyes fell on Azurel, who was still immersed in his shadow, trying to break through. He didn't even notice that the person he was trying to control was standing right before him.

The other ones saw Lucifer clearly, including Milen. "What a lucky day. We wanted one, but we have two keys."

Hearing Milen, Azurel also raised his head, noticing Lucifer standing before him. Jian also arrived, standing on the right of Lucifer.

"See? I was right! This shadow was the work of Lucifer! The one with Licorice must be his clone that he sent to distract us! What a scheming bastard!" Jestil exclaimed, feeling slightly pleased that he was proven right.

The others didn't look as happy. They were more stunned than they were happy. Another Lucifer? Moreover, this one looked a bit stronger as well, based on looks alone.

"I often prefer to solve problems without violence, but I do enjoy some violence from time to time as well," Jian was the first person to speak. " This is going to be fun..."

"You did good. You made a clone that could even fool us. Not bad. However, you're here. I don't see any benefits in what you did for yourself. In the end, it led you here as well. Am I missing something?" Licia asked Lucifer from inside the massive space.

Lucifer didn't answer her question. Instead, he asked a question of himself. "Everything inside that space is created by you. This reminds me of another time when my shadow was trapped in someone's domain."

He couldn't help his glance at Jian as he spoke. The last time it happened was with his brother Julien. With that old experience, Lucifer knew that stepping inside the space blindly was going to be really problematic as he could get trapped there.

Fortunately, since he knew about it in advance, he could use Energy Negation in advance to make him immune for some time. The only reason he spoke it out loud was to alert Jian.

"You're right and very perceptive." Licia nodded. "This space has been created by me. It's my Domain, and everything in my Domain is mine. From the grass to the sky, everything has been created by me here. I'm the god of this Domain. Scared yet?"

"You're not enough to scare me," Lucifer let out a simple sentence that was enough to enrage Licia. Even though Lucifer was important to them, that didn't give him the right to be so disrespectful to them.

Ignoring Licia's reactions, Lucifer focused on Jian. "Don't step inside the Domain, and if you do, don't go more than ten feet away from me."

"Interesting man indeed." Licia heard the laughter of people in the back. It was another one of the four Generals, Loy, who couldn't control his laughter at the snappy response of Lucifer.

"Grr!" Licia growled, looking back. Two sharp fangs came out from her mouth as her eyes turned red.

Loy shut his mouth right away and started looking elsewhere as if he was completely innocent in all this.

Just as Loy stopped laughing, another laughter filled the space. It was none other than Jian this time, chuckling over a different matter.
