Chapter 104: Decision (1/2)

'Is this connection between us what made me want to rush to her aid?' Lucifer thought as he looked at Raya Pazier with a little frown on his face.

Although a clue has finally appeared about why he wanted to rush towards Raya Pazier's aid and help her, that doesn't really mean that Lucifer wanted this connection with her.

As far as Lucifer knows, he is dead to the outside world. And that is all the better for him.

However, if a demon is out there in the world who got better skills in fortune-telling than Raya Pazier's father and has some sort of connection with Lucifer, then Lucifer's existence could very well be announced to the world.

And that is really bad. This means that Lucifer would have to rush regaining his strength back.

But it's not like a demon of that caliber just exists anywhere else, so it isn't really that urgent.

However, it is still a threat to Lucifer right now, which is why he had mixed feelings about this.

He was happy that a clue about his decisions and feelings concerning Raya Pazier has finally appeared here, but he was angry that so suddenly, there was a threat to him out there in the whole wide world.

Nonetheless, Lucifer was glad to know this through meeting Raya Pazier since he would never know about this without meeting her.

'Wait. We have a connection, and this connection made me save her. And now, saving her made me become aware of the threat of fortunetellers. This is...'

Bigger than I thought. Lucifer concluded so as he realized how he helped Raya Pazier, and Raya Pazier helped her by making him aware of the threat outside of the Zacharath Kingdom.

This meant that the connection between him and Raya Pazier is a lot more substantial and not just because of his whims or anything of the sort.

If one thinks about how Lucifer first met Raya Pazier, it was through a way that one would never expect.

Lucifer acting weird out of nowhere, which led him to Raya Pazier's house.

In the first place, Lucifer's weird behavior on that day is already suspicious in itself.

Which means that...this whole thing about having a connection with Raya Pazier is something far more greater than what Lucifer thought.

However, it seems that Lucifer couldn't think about this anymore as Raya Pazier spoke once more.

”That's weird...you don't have any slightest inkling that you are an ancient demon. Are you really an ancient demon? Hmm?” Raya Pazier said as she looked at Lucifer all the way up from his feet to his head.

She was observing him to really judge if he was an ancient demon.

Although Raya Pazier never met an ancient demon before, she still knows if a demon is ancient. And that is through their looks.

Well, that's definitely not the truth and was just Raya Pazier's opinion on the matter.

But still, it was a troublesome opinion since it was preventing her from believing that Lucifer was indeed the one her father predicted that would help save their family.

After all, by destroying the Warmester Denoble House's top brass, Lucifer has basically saved Raya Pazier, which saves the Pazier Family.

Through her, the bloodline of the Pazier Family shall live on.

It was without a doubt that Lucifer is the one her father predicted to save the Pazier Family.

And Lucifer knew that as well. Well, Lucifer believes that the prediction and connection are real since that was the only way to explain his strange behavior on that occasion at the capital city of the Zacharath Kingdom, where he first met Raya Pazier, and in Warm City, where he rushed to save Raya Pazier.

It was then that Lucifer finally spoke again as he looked at Raya Pazier straight in the eye.

He spoke with conviction and boldly stated...

”I don't care about what you think, but well. To answer your question about whether I am an ancient demon or not...”

”Yes. I am an ancient demon who could be considered to be one of the oldest demons living today in this time and age.”

As soon as Raya Pazier heard that, she responded, ”Prove it, then.”

”You don't look like an ancient demon, and you don't feel like an ancient demon.”

”How can I trust that you are indeed the ancient demon who my father said will save our family?”

Raya Pazier's fears were not baseless or anything of the sort. Her fears and worries were definitely reasonable.

Why? It was because...if Lucifer was the ancient demon who her father saved save her family, then that means that Raya Pazier will have to stick with him from now on.

Of course, Raya Pazier can still choose to just go away after this meeting with Lucifer since technically he already saved the Pazier Family by saving her, but Raya Pazier is not stupid.

The safest place is to be with a strong demon, and an ancient demon is definitely strong.
