ALL NOVEL Chapter 559 Brotherly Love
Chapter 559 Brotherly Love
In another more grander world, humans could be seen walking on land while some sat in their swords, flying about the place with steady hearts. There were land masses floating in the air, above major water regions, and balls of clouds that surrounded and masked these regions. There were buildings on stunning and towering mountains that stood glorious against the tide of Time. These mountains were so high, far above the clouds. And standing in them were many structures that looked majestic and towering. Olympus! That's what many who have watched the Hercules movies would say. In this world, humans had long known and accepted the existence of underworld creatures and exorcists. Why… even picking a site for construction involved these people. After all, you don't want to construct your brand new building, plaza or structure on it only to be told that the place you chose was once an unknown graveyard right?
"Oh my~... Is that the latest Sky Sword 10,000?" "Tsk. My son told me those things cost a fortune, since they give their user an extra 70% strength during battle." "Amazing!... Ah! Isn't that Herfa's boy up there?" "Yes, yes, yes… Herfa's boy just found out he has the talent to be an exorcist. Yes, Herfa of 10, is now on his way to becoming an exorcist!!" … Talks like these often get the people walking on the streets giddy. All around the streets were all sorts of magical things interrogated with modern society that spotted underworld creatures with a snap of a finger. However, these things were not exactly accurate when it came to spotting higher underworld beings… like ohhh~... The prince of Darkness himself, Lucifer Morningstar. When it came to these Underworld Princes, only equally stringer heavenly beings could ever spot them out.
Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap~
An old man's cane quietly tapped on the ground with every step he took forward. The old man had the freshness of a gentle soul, his smile sending deep red to his cheeks when acknowledging others beside him. He and several others passed along the roads, alarming no sounds or raising suspicions from the many magical invisible and floating items above. The old man soon got in a bus that drove him out of the glorious city and towards an old lake house on the outskirts. And when the old man stepped into the lake house, he snapped his fingers, opening an elaborate closet, only to reveal a man who looked exactly like him.
Lucifer chuckled lightly, knowing he couldn't kill the man, no matter how hard he wanted to.
Understand that although the foolish devices and tools this world had couldn't detect him, there were quite a few ways he could alert higher heavenly beings of his existence in this world. This world was one of the top world's with the greatest level of security available to its people. There were actual heavenly beings stationed to watch over these humans 24/7, and even more watching the atmosphere outside the world itself. This was one of the hardest worlds for his goons and forces to ever infiltrate. If he, Beelzebub or any other higher creatures wanted something from this world, they were more likely to succeed if they came and got it for themselves. As for the human who was kept floating in the closet with his eyes rolled to the back of his head, Lucifer couldn't kill him since the worthless man might trigger attention to his current location. In any other world, he might be able to kill and get it done without any angels feeling weirded out by the victim's sudden death. But… as fate would have it, this world was under the great protection of someone he hated dearly, his 'sweet', straightforward, and most beloved twin brother, Gabriel. Lucifer knew that if anyone could pick up his scent after killing, it would be that heavenly hound dog Gabriel. . Taking off his suit, he carefully hung it on the floating man's head in the closet. Well, better to cover it up, no? The less he saw of this fellow, the less his urge to awaken the fellow, frighten him to death and kill. "What a bore," Lucifer mumbled, while undoing his sleeve buttons. "An ugly one at that." For the record, he, Lucifer Morningstar, would never be caught dead wearing anything other than a suit when out in the human world. Even when out just now, he only casted a spell around him, making him look like the old man when in reality, he was still moving as he regularly did with his Crips suit on. What? A fisherman's hat, a hideous looking jacket, a t-shirt that looked old and faded… ugh… he couldn't imagine himself wearing anything this old man wore. He'd rather be caught dead than wear anything in the old man's closet. Thinking of his outing today, the air around Lucifer quickly grew thick and oppressive. Where the f*** did that Trickster put it? If Loki was around now, Lucifer would have wasted no time jumping on him and strangling the son of a b**ch to death. If he doesn't find it soon, their entire plan would be for naught. Lucifer's eyes glowed bright crimson red in the midst of his fury. Sparks of subtle flames engulfed his entire body when thinking of how long he has been in this world and yet, hadn't found it yet. Of course, the bloody trickster said he hid it in the deadliest place in this world for him – Gabriel's Temple. Should he even unleash a teeny weenie fraction of his powers in there, Gabriel would definitely appear like lightning. You don't know how challenging the task was for Lucifer, to completely mask himself from his brother's nose when risking a visit to the temple as a tourist. It took him 2 and a half months to finally get in and out without alerting his brother. But as expected, his first trial was unsuccessful. He indeed ventured into the temple, but he couldn't find it! This meant he would have to do this act again and again until he found what he was looking for. That being said, how can he possibly put all his eggs in one basket? Loki was such an unpredictable heavenly being who for all he knew, didn't even put the object in the temple. .
Loki, Loki, Loki...
For all he knew, perhaps Loki threw what he was looking for in the deepest parts of the ocean or even inside an active volcano. And if anyone was asking if molten lava could destroy it, impossible! Worldly things do not destroy such items. Lucifer was just about to head upstairs when he suddenly paused with a drooping face. He paused his steps only for a moment, before taking another step upwards.
"Well now… I thought I smelled burnt toast, but it seems it's just you, brother." Instantly, the atmosphere grew to tense, resulting in several animals and even fishes fainting and floating above the lake's surface. Gabriel!!! Lucifer slowly turned around to face a face that was completely identical to his, except for how fluffy Gabriel's hair was, and how wet-looking he was. If not for their hair and their wings, you would never be able to tell them apart. Oops… Those who have been with Lucifer forum, would know he wants as straightforward and head-on as Gabriel. Looking at Gabriel who was almost blinding him with that Golden and glowing heavenly hue, Lucifer meant what he said when he called Gabriel burnt toast. With all those glowing and blinding light, wasn't it a matter of time before you burn yourself to death? "Where is he?" Gabriel gritted his teeth and questioned with righteousness oozing from his bones. "Where is the human you have cursed with your presence?!!" "Cursed?" The corners of Lucifer's lips raised slightly. Tap. Tap. Tap~
With brisk and unhurried steps, he slowly made his way down the stairway with one hand elegantly placed on the railing. "Brother, don't you think 'cursed' is a strong word? Cursed by my presence you say?" Lucifer chuckled, before snapping his fingers and revealing the coat closet that now had the old man floating about with his jacket hanging on the hands face, as if the old man was a coat rack. "You! What have you done to him?!!" Gabriel quickly stretched his hand forth, causing the man to fly towards him in a flash. Touching the man, Gabriel couldn't help breathing a sigh of relief after seeing that the man's soul and spiritual essence wasn't entirely corrupted yet. Good… Even though Lucifer didn't kill the man, don't you know that any human Lucifer puts a spell on would definitely have a significant impact on the poor mortal's soul. "How can you do this to him? What did he ever do to you?" Gabriel threw a furious and accusing glare at Lucifer. Sometimes, Lucifer felt Gabriel was ridiculous. He, himself, was an underworld creature who only brought chaos and destruction to others. So what else do you expect from him? Lucifer was now thinking of making a split to avoid battling Gabriel and bringing more attention to his leg. But Gabriel's next words made his feet turn heavy. "You!!!... What did that damn trickster hide in this world?... I know he kept something here brother, and intend to find it first!!"
