The more he said, the louder his Voice got until he was screaming. It was clear that he was emotionally tired and hurt.
"All I wanted was to kill the people who killed me! But you tried to stop me from that! Come with you? With your people who placed me in a cage like those scientists?!"
"They deserved to die, and I would kill them a thousand times more if I was in the same situation? Not only them, I will kill anyone that comes and stands in my path!" Lucifer roared as thunder crackled around his fist.
As for the sky, it was already dark because of Dionâs weather control ability, but it suddenly became even darker as more and more clouds appeared, as if answering to Luciferâs roar. This was the third time Clouds had appeared when he was upset.
Thunder could also be seen crackling in the sky. Unfortunately, because they were in the ice tomb, the sky couldnât be seen. Neither Lucifer nor Xander could see the sky.
The people outside the Ice Tomb did notice the change in the sky.
Ayn was still trying to kill Dion, but even she noticed the dark clouds that were especially dense over the Ice Tomb. She found it strange. When Dion used his powers, the clouds were dense above them. Why were they dense over there?
Was there a strong Variant inside the tomb that had a unique power?
Dion also seemed surprised at the sky and the thundering clouds.
He knew that Caen had gone inside the Ice Tomb with Lucifer. But not a single person in Caenâs team had an ability like that. Then these clouds? Were they because of Lucifer, he wondered.
Ayn had a bad feeling. Xander was alone inside the tomb and now these clouds. It seemed like his hunch was correct. She also needed to check the situation inside.
She jumped back, creating distance from Dion, who was attacking her with whirlwinds and the thunder from the sky.
After she created enough distance, she clenched her fist and punched the ground.
As soon as her fist hit the ground, the ground started shaking. The Ice Walls that had entrapped the facility started disappearing until they were finally gone, bringing the facility out of the Ice Tomb.
Finally, everyone was able to see inside the Ice Tomb.
Everyone momentarily glanced towards the Facility only to see Lucifer standing before Xander. Black Thunder was cracking around Luciferâs fist, which seemed like it could destroy the entire world if it were set loose.
On the other hand, a blazing red flame was burning around Xanderâs fist, which seemed to have the potential of burning everything in its path. The Young Warlock of Black Thunder was facing the experienced Warlock of Flame and the strongest Flame user.
âThey are really caught,â Dion thought, frowning. âBut why isnât Vega acting now? Is he waiting to see Lucifer in action? Does he want things to go too far?â
....
The Black Thunder had just appeared around Lucifer as he let his emotions lose, letting out his true thoughts about how the APF stood in his path, and he wasnât wrong.
"Lucifer! I am warning you! The only reason Iâm still acting to help you is because youâre the son of Zale Azarel! Please stop now! Donât step forward!" Xander said firmly.
He has just finished speaking when he saw the Ice Walls disappear, revealing the dark thundering sky
"And what if I donât stop? What will you do? Try to imprison me with force like last time?" Lucifer asked.
"Lucifer! If you donât listen, I swear to god, I will kill you! You might have healing, but even your healing canât return you to life from ash! So stop, or Iâll be forced to kill you!" Xander said, finally increasing his volume.
"You will kill me? I would like to see how you do that," Lucifer said, as he clenched his fist.
He had finished his mission. He had completed his revenge. In any case, his life had no value to him anymore, even if it was true that he could be killed.
The threat of life was the most useless threat for him. On the other hand, he had no family, so he didnât fear for them either. He had no weakness that scared him at the moment.
What Lucifer didnât realize was that the slight violet in one of his beautiful blue eyes became a bit more visible at the moment. This time, it wasnât as subtle as last time, though. Xander was able to see it as well.
"One eye violet, one eye blue... It canât be," Xander muttered as he noticed it. "So many powers and this... So thatâs why! He isnât a human. He is..."
Without thinking twice, Xander raised both his arms and fired blazing hot fire towards Lucifer while he yelled at Ayn, "Ayn! He has one blue eye and one violet! We need to kill him at any cost!"
"Blue and violet eyes? Really? Why didnât I notice? So this kid is actually..." Even Caen was surprised as he heard the words.
"What is the secret of one blue eye and one violet? I donât understand. Whatâs so special about it?" Henrik asked Caen.
"Hah, you wonât understand. But I believe APF wonât stop at anything before killing Lucifer. If the Hunter Union find out, they would also jump in, leaving everything else behind. As for the world... I donât even want to imagine. It would be chaos." Caen said as he wondered what he should do.
"If he has such baggage, should we stop approaching him?" Henrik asked. "Letâs leave him behind."
"We canât. He is really special. I think we need to cherish him even more now. Because he really can change the whole world. The future really took a different course with the appearance of Lucifer," Caen said as he frowned.
"Should we help him then?" Henrik asked.
"Can we? The flames or the thunder, theyâll both destroy us if we even step closer. Donât do anything and just sit back," Caen said, frowning. "Moreover, if itâs time, Iâm sure there will be an interference."
