Chapter 93: Kars (1/2)

Lucifer used some kind of illusion to break down Rouge's mental fortitude and was making sure that he wouldn't be able to say no when he asks him to help him.

After all, even though the leaders of the Warmester Denoble House, especially the Patriarch, are dead now, that doesn't mean that Lucifer has taken control of the Warmester Denoble House.

In fact, if the Warmester Denoble House learns that Lucifer killed the Patriarch and the 6 pillars, the most natural course that would take place is the Warmester Denoble House seeking revenge against Lucifer, who killed their leaders.

That was why Lucifer needed someone like Rouge, who can take the place of the Patriarch, and govern the Warmester Denoble House under his rule while becoming a subordinate for Lucifer.

Although Lucifer didn't really plan to spare Rouge, there is no other choice right now as the assassination was successful.

After all, Lucifer didn't want to blast this whole city away and wipe it off from the map.

It would be better to use the Warmester Denoble House than to create an organization out of nowhere and raise it from scratch.

Of course, it wouldn't really matter to Lucifer as he would be able to create an organization or two, but...it would be more profitable and less time-consuming if he were to take control of the Warmester Denoble House and build his own from there.

After all, he would already have the resources that he would need to create an organization, which would come from the Warmester Denoble House.

That was why Lucifer wanted Rouge to obey him so that things would flow smoothly from now on.

And it seems that whatever he did was successful as Lucifer was now...sitting on the chair of the Patriarch as Rouge was kneeling right in front of him.

Rouge was...his body was still cracked all over, and stains of blood were evident on his body and clothes.

It seems that he wasn't healed up as Rouge was still bleeding on his nose.

Well, the fact that his body was still cracked all over means that he wasn't still treated.

And the reason why is because...Lucifer wanted to make sure that Rouge would feel that his life is threatened, therefore making him cling to Lucifer would be easier for him to do so.

It was a wise move as Rouge wasn't even trying to escape or anything of the sort. He was just kneeling as if he was waiting for Lucifer to speak.

Of course, this is also the result of Lucifer...basically torturing Rouge's mind.

Anyway, there is a reason why Lucifer was just sitting on the chair of the Patriarch and wasn't even looking at Rouge as he had his eyes closed.

And that is...because Lucifer was thinking about the future.

Since Lucifer has killed the leaders of the Warmester Denoble House and now has a decorate head for the Warmester Denoble House on his palm, waiting for his orders, what kind of story shall he brew so that Rouge would be seen as legitimate and people would recognize him as the Patriarch from now on...that was what Lucifer was thinking about.

There would still be other demons who would be at the top of the Warmester Denoble House, so Lucifer would need their support as well so that things would flow smoothly.

What's more, since it would be weird to say that Rouge is now the Patriarch and just discard the real Patriarch and the 6 pillars, Lucifer would have to create a story for that, too.

That was not all as Lucifer was also sure that the Patriarch would have some kind of descendants, who are waiting for him to die to take the seat of the Patriarch.

Lucifer was thinking if he should kill them or not, but in the end, Lucifer decided that it would be better for him to kill them.

It would be better if he uproots the whole entire family of the Warmester bloodline so that there would be no one who would plan to try and get the Warmester Denoble House back and also possibly try to get revenge on Lucifer.

It would save a lot of time and trouble for Lucifer, so it was better to kill all of the demons who have the Warmester bloodline.

Of course, Lucifer didn't know this, but Rouge definitely has the Warmester bloodline. He was the son of the Patriarch, after all.

Nevertheless, it would never come to light now...as the people who know of this fact are now dead and dead people don't tell tales.

After thinking for a long amount of time, Lucifer finally finished and was able to decide on the next course of actions that he would take for the future of the Warmester Denoble House, and, of course, for himself.
