Chapter 3: Lucas Reyes - The Angel of Light

Aucuses stood up from the bench, as he looked at Laius' body dissolving into particles of light, which was blown away with the sway of wind. Laius was just teleported back to his church school.

Aucuses walked along the sidewalk, heading to the city's outskirts, until he arrived at the wheat fields. The golden wheat fields stretched all the way to the snowy and steep antal mountains, swaying in the wind that blew across the fields.

The golden sun's rays gave the wheat a more golden hue, as if it shone with bright golden light.

Occasionally, workers with scythes were cutting the overgrown wheat along the large fields. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Aucuses was now standing on a mud and rocky road, gazing out at the beautiful scenery before him. It piqued his adventurous spirit and satisfied him, which is why he prefers to walk everywhere rather than teleport.

Aucuses finally turned away from the gold flied and looked at the empty muddy road on the other side of him.

"You can come out now, Lucas." Aucuses' voice echoed down the mostly empty road, with no one in sight until the end of the road.

However, just before Aucuses, the golden rays of the sun that illuminated the surroundings turned white as pure white feathers made of light appeared, forming two wings, with a figure made of light materialising in between the wings.

The wings swayed and folded as the figure appeared, and the light on the figure faded, revealing a man.

He was a handsome man with short, neat-blonde hair and blue pupils that glowed. He was dressed in a golden layered white cloak and had a gentle demeanour.

Lucas Reyes, the Angel of Light, was the man in question.

"My lord," Lucas bowed with solemnity and respect in his tone. "I hope I'm not bothering you." He inquired because when he arrived, he noticed his lord silently gazing at the scenery before them.

"Not here." Aucuses once again interrupted Lucas and spoke with a light tone "Let's go somewhere where no one will be able to hear us."

"However, my lord..." Lucas didn't understand, so he spoke up with some hesitation.

This kingdom is the lord's domain, and the order established by his lord is woven into the very fabric of this kingdom's reality. There is no safer place than here, and no one should be able to bypass his lord's power.

"There is nothing perfect in the world, Lucas. Even my order and rules that spread across this kingdom's reality have some loopholes that the capable can exploit." Aucuses chuckled, exposing Lucas's inner thoughts.

Aucuses began walking towards Lucas, while his tone becoming solemn. "Lucas, you most likely obtained the information I requested from our spies in the Solomon Empire."

"You see, there is the problem, the reality of the Solomon Empire is also woven with very distorted rules far more than here, so much so, it won't be wrong to say, that the reality itself obeys Solomon's command."

"Yet here we are, infiltrating the empire right under Solomon's nose."

"Thus, while I appreciate your piety and reverence for me, but, don't let it cloud your judgement. I am not omnipotent, as you may believe subconsciously." He said this in a solemn tone, his golden iris glowed as he stood before Lucas.

Aucuses had not expected to have such an image in the heart of the Lucas, despite the fact that he understood why it was so. However, he was not even the strongest god in the world, let alone omnipotent. So he needs to change Lucas, because if Lucas continues to believe the same way, he will suffer greatly.

"It was my mistake, milord." Under the gaze of the Aucuses, Lucas' head was down and he was slightly shaking, his expression was that of a daze, because he also just realised.

Even though Aucuses didn't use any of his authorities, Lucas felt immense pressure on both his body and soul under the gaze of Aucuses.

Aucuses sighed as he saw this and rested his hands on his shoulder. "All right, let's go."

He didn't give Lucas much time to react, as he snapped his fingers, their figures collapsed and dissolved into golden light particles that dissipated in the wind.
