Lucas waited for me to finish eating while he ordered himself a cup of tea. It took about 15 minutes, and ones I finished my plate, I looked at him and spoke.

"So, what is it that you wanted?"

"It’s not me. It is Lucifer who wanted to talk with you," he spoke, dropping a bomb on me as I looked at him. How does he know about Lucifer… or wait… how did even Lucifer contact him-

As I was thinking, I saw Lucas placing Excalibur on the table in front of me. He saw me and spoke,

"I was given this sword about 2 days ago and since then, I have been in contact with that guy. He said something related to you, that you will be helping me get stronger, clearly warning me that without your help I would not only lose my sister, but everything else along with it."

I sighed a little before standing up looking around, finding the nearby waiter, calling him close and giving him the money that I owed for the food.

"Come with me," I spoke as my eyes turned red and vanished from there and reached outside as I scanned for an isolated rooftop around. Finding a particularly high rooftop, I vanished as I moved towards it, arriving there within a minute.

Lucas followed me without any words as we both reached the top, where there were only us. I looked at the top of the Stairway of Knowledge, where the Giant was supposed to be residing, and sighed before muttering,"Geheimnis," as I blocked our presence, but I doubt it would have done anything here.

Then I raised my hand as I tried calling the Excalibur to me, and sure enough, it flew towards me before a white-haired man with angel-like wings came into my vision. Looking at Lucas, it seems like he, too, can see him.

Lucas’ eyes were a bit shaken as he observed Lucifer. Though, I narrowed my eyes at Lucifer as I asked,"explain what is going on here."

Lucifer looked at me and smiled as he spoke,"when you killed that Parasite, it attracted the Parasite King."

Hearing his words, my eyes went blank for a moment as I observed him and muttered,"but why would the Parasite King be interested in a mere Scout?"

This isn’t how it was supposed to be… if the Parasites were to strike earlier… I doubt we can survive even for a day and forget about trying to put up an equal fight….

"Well, I don’t know much about that… but I am here to warn you about that. Also… next time you go into the White Dimension, you won’t be able to meet Amon. He has started conserving his power, he’ll only appear when he will be really needed," Lucifer spoke with a really sad gaze before speaking,

"What do you think we should do?"

’Huh?!’ I looked at him, wondering what he was talking about? Isn’t he one of the Guardians? Shouldn’t he be telling me what I should be doing? Thinking about a way out of this… it wasn’t even my problem to begin with…

"Don’t look at me like that… I did try my best last time, and it didn’t work that time. Neither for Amon, Janus or even the other Guardians… we were just useless. This time it is all on you, Zero. You are the one who calls all the shots… we will be on your support," he spoke as he looked at me with a really odd gaze and I looked at him,

"I am not a God, you know?"

"You might just have to become powerful enough to defeat one, though. Just like Amon, I too would be going into seclusion… so I thought I should pass on my powers to you as well. Give me your hand," he spoke as he moved towards me, but his words confused me a little as I asked,

"What do you mean by ’as well’?" I narrowed my eyes, and he gazed at me and smiled a little before he caught my hand and began transferring his powers into me.

"I have collected a total of three fragments. The Fragment of Brilliance, which I passed on to Lucas, the Fragment of Luminosity that I have kept for myself and finally the Fragment of Blaze, which I will be giving to you. Use it properly… as for the other fragment which you have, but you don’t know, is Amon’s Fragment of Breath. I don’t know why he did not tell you that but… I don’t think hiding it would do anyone any good," he spoke as he looked deep into my eyes, let my hands go and turned to Lucas.

"The world may break any moment from now on… I won’t be here to guide you, as I have already failed once. Follow him, for I am putting my trust in him as well," Lucifer spoke as he smiled and then turned at me and continued,

"The next time we meet will probably be the last time. I hope you will prove me wrong."

"Wait-" my eyes opened up wide as I looked at him vanishing immediately after that. I had a thousand questions racing in my mind… I wanted answers to all of them.

"So… I guess I will be under your guidance? Though I don’t really understand what is going on," he spoke and I looked at him and passed his sword back to him.

"Can I punch you?" I spoke in an irritated voice as I looked at him. His f*cking Guardian just dropped a bomb on me and now I have to solve the problems by myself?

"And what the f*ck did he mean by I am by myself now… Amon… or Elle, call me back up if anyone new comes out. I might have to recalculate everything once again," I spoke out loud in irritation as I circled around Lucas, who was just observing me with a small smile on his face.

I looked at him and glared as I asked,"what are you smiling about?"

"No, it’s just… you look more normal now. Much more approachable than before. Is this the real you?" he asked with the same smile on his face and I sighed before speaking,

"Well, since it has come to this… I guess it’s about time I put all my plans into motion at once. I will be needing your help as well as gotta call the others. If we are going to save this world from the Second Cataclysm… I guess we will need to bring about the First Cataclysm faster."

There was a devilish smile on my face as I thought about my upcoming plans for the future. I was about to bring chaos into this world… literally.
