One True God

Chapter 73: Ugly

The carriage carrying Lucifer suddenly stopped while Lucifer was still feeling the city to make sure that there would be nothing that would be able to mess up with his plans.

And it was because of this that Lucifer knew where they stopped.

'Hmm? We stopped in one of the 6 main buildings, and what's more, this is the building where the gathering is happening...'

Right, they stopped at the main building where the gathering is happening.

Lucifer was able to feel this gathering ever since they entered the Warm City since there were just so many people here.

That was also why he was able to notice them right away when he felt that the carriage stopped running.

Incidentally, Lucifer could also feel that the other carriages that went with their carriage have gone in other directions now.

Some of them stayed with Rouge's carriage, but...most of them went towards other directions.

Anyway, as soon as the carriage stopped running, Rouge immediately stood up as if nothing was happening, and then spoke as he walked towards the door.

"Get up. We are here now. Just follow me and agree to everything that I will say so that you won't have any problems being admitted." Rouge said.

And when Lucifer heard that, he just stood up. However, there was something that Lucifer was really curious about in this situation.

And that was why he spoke, "Hmm? Aren't we already admitted - those who passed, I mean?"

Right, since there were 68 people who were able to pass the exams, it should be common sense to think that they are now admitted to the Warmester Denoble House or the organizations.

After all, they were able to pass the exams. That was literally all that they had to do.

Now...how come Rouge is talking about that they are not still admitted? That was the weirdest thing that Lucifer has ever heard ever since he went on with this plan of his.

That was also why Lucifer couldn't help but ask Rouge about this since it was really...weird.

After all, if they were still not admitted, and there was still something that these 68 people should do to be admitted, then...that means that the number will go down even further.

And most importantly, more job for Lucifer since he would also have to do those things to be admitted.

No, since Rouge already said that Lucifer just had to agree on everything that he said for Lucifer to be admitted, things should be much easier for Lucifer.

However, it was just the truth that Lucifer was getting curious about this, which is why he asked Rouge.

And when Rouge heard what Lucifer said, he turned his head around and spoke with a grin.

"You passed the exam, of course. Those who passed the exams are qualified enough to come with us back to Warm City."

"Ah, by the way, this place is called the Warm City, it is the place being ruled by the Warmester Denoble House."

"Anyway, the 'project' has ended by the time the exams ended. However...it is the truth that the newcomers must keep up with the customs of the Warmester Denoble House, which is why you are still not admitted."

"The newcomers must prove themselves before they can be admitted."

"However, don't worry. As long as you agree on whatever I say outside, things will flow smoothly and you will be able to have an easy time getting admitted in the Warmester Denoble House."

Rouge said all those words without missing a single beat. This just shows how experienced Rouge was when it comes to recruiting people for the Warmester Denoble House.

However, that was not important at all as Lucifer just nodded his head.

Well, that was not all that he did as he began to think, 'Agree to whatever he says? Hmm...this is weird. Does he plan to make me agree to a contract?'

Right, the contract is the worst-case scenario. If Lucifer were forced to agree on a contract or something like that in this case, Lucifer would be forced to finally move.

He would have to disagree since that would mean that Lucifer would be a slave to someone or to Rouge, and that is something that must never happen.

Well, it will never happen since Lucifer wouldn't agree on being a slave of someone else, but...that would mean that his cover would be blown and that he would have to start destroying all of them in here.

If that was the case, then...it would be an all-out war instead of an assassination.

This would totally beat the purpose of Lucifer disguising himself and sneaking inside the Warm City.

However, it's not like this is completely bad for Lucifer.

He just needs to find out if all of the officials are in this place, and then...make it explode.

Even though Lucifer was pretty weak right now, he could still make a city disappear with just a flick of his finger.

Once that happens, Lucifer had a trump card that would make sure that he would never be found out that he was the one who destroyed the city.

That was why...Lucifer can just destroy the city once that happens, so Lucifer was not that worried about it.

The only thing that was bugging Lucifer is that...he was sure that he wouldn't be able to find out about the location of the officials once that happens.

'Hmm...I'll think about it once the time comes. I just hope it won't be the contract...' Lucifer thought as he looked in front.

Although it seems like a lot of time ever since Lucifer began to think, it was actually not.

Lucifer calculated all of those things in just a single second, which is why...Lucifer could see that Rouge was still walking towards the door of the carriage.

'If it is the contract...the demon bless the souls of all the people in here...' Lucifer thought as he followed Rouge out of the carriage.

His eyes...were showing his determination to kill everyone in this place.

The power of the Archdemon shall be unleashed tonight.

****

Lucifer and Rouge were able to get out of the carriage without any trouble.

Some man was waiting for them, who opened the door for them.

And as soon as they got out, they could see the mass gathering that Lucifer felt when he was still in the carriage.

However, that was not important at all as the people in this place were all...lying on the ground as if that was their only purpose in life.

"What's happening?" Lucifer murmured as he looked at the people lying on the ground.

Even though Lucifer already prepared himself for the worse to happen, he didn't expect to see something like this.

After all, who would expect to see hundreds of people lying on the ground right after descending off a carriage?

Unless one knows already that hundreds of people are lying on the ground, then it is practically impossible to guess this situation.

Of course, Lucifer was not that shocked about it, but he was just curious since it is extremely rare to see something like this happening.

Anyway, when Rouge heard what Lucifer said, he quickly spoke.

"This is something that the newcomers must do in order to prove themselves worthy to be with the Warmester Denoble House."

Rouge then raised his right hand and pointed to the right side, which Lucifer followed with his eyes.

And...there was something Lucifer didn't expect, but somehow he considered it to be normal as well.

Why? It was because...the 68 people who Lucifer knew that passed the test earlier were lined up with some kind of weapons in their hands.

There were swords, daggers, knives, among the 68 people.

Hell, there were even rocks in their hands, and they were all shocked and shaking.

Although they knew that they would be the subordinate of the Warmester Denoble House, they also didn't expect something like this.

They...didn't expect that they would have to kill on the very first day that they arrived in Warm City.

Right...the newcomers need to kill people in order to prove themselves.

And the people who are lying on the ground are their targets.

'Hmm...interesting. So, they are trying to test the newcomers' mental fortitude and will by doing something like this. Impressive way of doing it, but...it's ugly.' Lucifer thought as his face turned into a frown.

His eyes...saw a random newcomer slowly walk up to one of the people lying on the ground.

The random newcomer was having some kind of problems walking, but he was still able to reach one of the people.

Right after reaching, a voice resounded out, "Kill!!!"

And as if the random newcomer have no choice in this situation, he cried out, "AHHHH!!!" as he proceeded to stab the person lying on the ground.

...silence prevailed over the place, and the person who got stabbed didn't scream.

In fact, the one who stabbed was the one screaming, "AHHH!!" as the newcomer continuously stabbed the stranger.

'Really, what an ugly way of doing it,' Lucifer thought...
