Chapter 876: Daughter in law
Hearing his stories, even the people who had been with him since the start were amazed. Many of them looked at him in amazement.
What shocked Alicia the most was the part where Lucifer confessed about Killing Raia. She hadn’t known that he did it, but after hearing his story, she understood why he did it. She could understand his reasoning.
What she didn’t know was that there was a more shocking part that was to come regarding Lucifer Killing Vega.
Lucifer knew that Alicia was in the room already. He could see her through the corner of his eyes as he spoke. He didn’t know how she was going to take it. Vega had been like a father to her, but he didn’t forget to mention that Vega had messed with her memories, and he wasn’t her real father and that he had betrayed them.
Every single person he had killed was either an enemy or someone who betrayed him.
Lucifer even talked about the war with the Divine Empire as he introduced Milena. He introduced everyone through his stories, telling his parents how he met everyone.
After a long time, the story finished. Throughout the story, his parents remained on one spot as if they were living the story through Lucifer’s words.
“So you went into the past and met us. That was really you! I did think that you looked familiar! You were their friend I had that had disappeared!” Zale let out, slightly amazed. “So this is why you had disappeared. You came into the future!”

For a long time, he had wondered where that man had gone and why such a strong man hadn’t come out in the last great war where Zale rose to prominence. He was sure that if Lucifer were there at that time, he would’ve taken all the limelight.
“I had a feeling this was the case. Lucifer isn’t a common name after all,” Lucifer responded. “It seems to be a paradox. You named me because you met me as Lucifer. And you met me as Lucifer because you named me Lucifer. One isn’t possible without the other “
He was really curious how everything worked. Just what happened first?
He shook his head. “Leaving that aside. It seems you remember meeting me. So it did happen. Then tell me, why didn’t you read what was in the letter and change your future?”
“The letter? Ah right! That letter. As soon as you left, we were attacked, and that letter was destroyed before we could even read it. I always wondered what was in the letter,” Zale answered. “It seems the letter was your way of telling us what was going to happen in the future, wasn’t it?”
Lucifer nodded. “I wrote in that letter my real identity and what was going to happen to you in the future and who betrayed you. It seems sometimes it’s really hard to change the future even if we try. That letter just had to be destroyed.”
“But maybe that was for the good. If the letter wasn’t destroyed, you would have acted differently. I might’ve been different too. I might not have a hard life like I did, but I also wouldn’t have this family that I had created in your absence.” Lucifer’s gaze roamed over everyone in the hall, observing all the Uprising members and his friends that he had made along the way.
“I am happy what happened, especially now that you’re all back. I feel like the family is completed. Now I can leave this place without any worries. You’ll all be safe here,” he added, sighing.
“Leave this place? Wait, what?” Zale exclaimed. “You’re leaving?”
Lucifer nodded. “I need to leave. I need to meet that peeps. Even though you’ll always be my family, I still want to find my origins, and only that person can tell me my origins. If I stay on earth, I can never find my true origins. That’s why I must leave. But before that, I want to finish some things.”
“When will you leave?” Clarisse asked, with a pale face.
She has just reunited with her son, and he was talking about leaving?
“I would take one month to finish what I want to finish here, so after a month,” Lucifer let out, sighing. “The ship should be here by then with the information about the other stones. By then, I’ll collect the stones on Earth and finish the takeover.”
“Takeover? You mean conquering Earth?” Zale asked, frowning. “You still want to do it?”
“I won’t stop what I started before finishing it,” Lucifer replied.
“So you’ll kill more people?” Zale asked.
“Sometimes death is impossible, but I doubt I would need to kill anymore. I’m sure they all saw the might of my Dragons,” Lucifer smirked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe could still conjure the Dragons. Without the vessel strength, his Dragon wasn’t going to be as strong as what they were before, but only he knew that. On the outside, the Dragon was going to look similar, so he was sure that no one was going to dare oppose him. There was no need to kill anymore.
Atlantis had fallen, the Divine Empire was under his control, and now Warlock Council was his again.
“Before I leave, I want to see my dream come true, the dream I saw for this world, and I won’t leave that dream incomplete because that wasn’t just my dream. There was someone else who saw that Dream. I just took some inspiration and modified that dream according to my needs,” Lucifer exclaimed.
“So no innocents will die anymore?” Zale inquired.
“No innocents will die,” Lucifer nodded.
He didn’t finish his sentence though. No innocents were going to die as long as they didn’t stand in his path.
“Alright. You can do it,” Zale agreed.
“Hey, enough talk about warlock stuff between father and son. Let me ask something as well!” Clarisse chimed in. “She had been sitting silently for a long time.”
“Yes, Mother?”
“You are already an adult now. You are of an age where you can select a wife for you. And I see many beautiful ladies here. According to what you said, three of them are very close to you as well: Alicia, Eve, and Milena. So which of them is going to be my daughter-in-law?” Clarisse inquired.
“Cough! Cough!” Lucifer started coughing intently as he heard the question. All three ladies in question were also stunned at what was asked. They all looked at Lucifer to hear his answer.
