Chapter 546 - 546: Don't Have To

"So, do you have a crush on him?" The lady asked.

"I-i... I don't know. There's something about him that's very attractive, but I don't know what. Moreover, I don't even know him that well," Yui answered, lowering her head.

"Hahaha, I can understand that feeling. I was the same when I met your father. You should try getting to know him. If you like him even then, you can come to me. I'll set something up."

"But mother, he isn't a Snow Wolf..."

"So what? He's still a High Beast. And InterSpecies marriage isn't a taboo. It was just a coincidence that I fell in love with your father, who happened to be a Snow Wolf as well, but that doesn't mean I simply had to marry a Snow Wolf," the lady answered.

"What you are doesn't matter. And what he is doesn't matter either. What matters is if you like him or not. So decide that first, and then we'll think about other things," she further stated. "In any case, it looks like he's going to stay here for a little. You should have enough time with him."

Yui felt conflicted, but she nodded her head.

...

Hun took Lucifer to the ground floor. As soon as Lucifer reached the lower floor, he was able to meet up with Salazar and Jenilia.

Just as he had expected, the two of them were given white clothes. He couldn't help but shake his head: these people and their obsession with white. On the contrary, his cloak was pitch black entirely.

Salazar was wearing a long furry coat that was snow white in color. As for Jenilia, she was also given a similar white jacket which was slightly smaller in size than Salazar since she had a smaller build.

"Are you alright now?" Lucifer asked the two of them.

"Yeah. These costs are nice." Jenilia nodded.

"Of course they are. They are made with really rare materials. You can take them with you when you leave. They are yours now. Think of it as a gift from us," Hun let out with a bright smile.

"Thanks a lot," Lucifer said.

"You don't have to say thanks. Come, let's show you your rooms."

Lucifer and the others were taken through a different hallway on the ground floor to a set of rooms on the left.

"All the rooms in this area are free. You can choose any of them that you like."

"I'll take this one. You can take the one on the left, and Jenilia can take the right." Lucifer decided the rooms of each of them, making sure that all three rooms were close.

Lucifer pushed the door of his room open to look inside. As expected, the room was pretty good, but again, it was all white.

Even the bedsheets were spotlessly white, matching the wall.

There was no vase inside the room, but one painting was hung on the wall.

The painting depicted a beautiful white wolf that was howling as the moon.

"This painting...?'

"Oh, that's the painting of my father when he was young," Hun explained.

'So that's what a snow wolf looks like. It's similar to an ordinary wolf. I expected more,' Lucifer thought, frowning.

"Anyway, now that you've seen your room, shall we go to see the city?"

"See the city?"

"Yeah. It's your first time here. I think I should show you around. You can't just stay here all day, getting bored."

"Alright. Let's go out." Lucifer nodded, not saying no. Since he was here, he might as well see how things are here and get closer to this guy before asking him the questions about leaving.

"Awesome. Wait outside the mansion. I'll be right outside after informing my mother."

Hun left in haste, leaving the other three behind.

"We did arrange for a safe place to stay, but why aren't we asking him the questions we really want answers to? When are we going to ask him about the Summoned Beasts?"

"Not yet. We need the right time," Lucifer answered. "And I don't think it's the time yet."

"We really shouldn't waste time. The outside world should be in shambles without us," Salazar responded.

"I don't think things will be that bad. The Warlock Council team was wiped. No danger will come on Elisium for at least a few days. Moreover, Milena is still there. I don't think she would try something stupid."

"Kellian doesn't know about Milena. What if there's a conflict?"

"Kellian is more sensible than that. I think we can afford to take one day before returning," Lucifer responded. "We can't hurry here since that can put such an easy task in jeopardy."

"Come, let's wait outside. And don't talk about this again. I'll ask him personally," he added as he left the room.

...

The small group of three left the mansion and started waiting for Huh. Amongst the three, only Jenilia felt like she didn't belong here.

She had become an unwilling ally to the enemies of the Warlock Council, and still, they were carrying her with them instead of killing her? It was awkward for her.

Standing outside the mansion, Lucifer looked like he was thinking about something serious. She wondered if he was thinking about getting out; however, she was wrong.

Lucifer was thinking about something else instead. He was thinking about the Phoenix. He had found something really strange.

According to Hun, beasts like her weren't compatible with cold. Then why was that girl taking a bath in freezing water? And what was this strange feeling that he was getting from her?

"I'm really. Let's leave!" Hun soon came out of the room.

...

"This is the best bar in the city. It is also my favorite place."

Hun showed a bar to Lucifer and also took him inside.

"We don't drink. I apologize," Lucifer refused to drink.

He didn't want to try a drink of the beasts, which could have some strange consequences. He was fine with his healing, even if it was poison for humans, but that wasn't the case for everyone else.

That's why he refused for everyone before dragging Hun out.

Hun next took them to the market in the city, which was in the center of the city. It was also the place where Lucifer had met him. He showed them all the shops and described the things that could be bought here.

"Are you sure you don't want to buy you something? I can afford things for you if you need them?"

"It's alright.. You don't have to go through it," Lucifer responded, stepping out of another shop where Huh kept insisting for him to buy something.
