Chapter 756
"I can't do that. I tried opening one, but it just explodes whenever I try something with it. I think I can't dive in."
"It explodes because the Limiters are locked. Contact Caen. He is roaming as Lucifer. His voice should be able to unlock them. Just take his help and do it!"
"Got it. I'll get you an answer soon!"
Kellian turned back to the main screen.
"That reminds me, can you use your voice to unlock the Limiters?"
Lucifer shook his head.
He observed Xaen. "You took over all the controls of the Limiters I'm wearing."
"Why don't you try? Maybe I did, maybe I didn't?"
Lucifer looked down at the Limiters. Even though he was sure that it wasn't going to be easy, he still attempted. "Unlock."
The light on the Limiter didn't change at all, even after his commands.
"I get it. We'll find another way. Just keep them distracted." Kellian told Lucifer, hearing the entire conversation.
"It is certainly fun to watch you struggle, but I don't want to give you much time to find a way out." Xaen stepped closer to Lucifer.
He raised his hand towards the neck of Lucifer.
Lucifer didn't even flinch as he saw the hands of Xaen coming closer to him. Xaen was shorter than him, so it didn't look like he could even raise him in the air by grabbing his neck.
Xaen didn't stop on Lucifer's neck. Instead, his hand kept going up and stopped right before Lucifer's glasses.
"Also, you don't need these sunglasses in this dark room. I'll take them."
He took the glasses.
"That's just better. No reason to hide your beautiful eyes," Xaen said. "Tell me your last words before I kill you."
"My last words? I only want to say one thing," Lucifer said, sighing.
"Go ahead."
Lucifer moved closer to Xaen, bringing his lips closer to his ears. "Kill me while you have a chance. Because you might not get this chance later."
Finishing his words, he moved back.
Xaen was a bit stubbed at Lucifer's words. Did this guy really want to die or something? He couldn't use any abilities, and he was right at the door of death, yet he wasn't scared. What was happening?
In his shock, he didn't even notice the glasses in his hand. Frustrated, he crushed the glasses in his hand before tossing the pieces away.
"I'll listen to your last wish."
He clapped both his hands, bringing out another spatial Portal before him.
He inserted his hand inside the Spatial Portal but didn't enter personally. After a few seconds, he pulled out something from the portal.
He pulled out a beautiful sword from the Spatial Portal.
The Sword had a beautiful shade of silver. Its edges looked sharp enough to slice through bones as if they were nothing.
"I don't know if it'll work or not, but we can always try." Xaen placed the tip of his sword on the chest of Lucifer.
Lucifer didn't even flinch, watching the sword on his chest.
"Five..."
"What?" Xaen asked, hearing Lucifer say something.
"Four...."
"Are you having a countdown?"
"Three."
Xaen felt something wrong. He didn't understand why Lucifer was counting down, but he didn't want to give Lucifer a chance to finish his count.
"Two...."
Thrust~
At the count of two, the sword stabbed the heart of Lucifer, passing through his back.
Lucifer lowered his gaze, looking at the hole on his chest.
Xaen pulled out the Sword.
A smile flashed across the lips of Lucifer. He opened his bleeding lips.
"One."
Swiss~
Right as he finished his word, the sword came slicing once again, taking his head off.
Lucifer was prepared for something to happen, but something was different. He couldn't feel his vision turning dark. Normally, after connection was disconnected for this much time, his time loop became active, sending him in various times. However, it didn't happen now?
He was hoping that it was going to happen again. He wondered if it was because Xaen was in a direct conversation with him in a sense. Did it not work if he was with someone in this world? He couldn't understand, but he knew he didn't have the time to think.
He needed to protect himself.
He tilted his body backward, avoiding the sharp sword that came blazing towards him.
He barely dodged the sword that managed to leave a scratch on his neck.
He moved back, knowing things could've been much worse.
"So you finally decided to struggle?" Xaen asked, smiling.
"What was the countdown about? I thought you had accepted your death? Had a change of heart at the last second?"
"It doesn't matter. You're not going anywhere!" Xaen casually waved his hand.
A Portal appeared behind Lucifer, swallowing him whole.
Another Portal opened before Xaen. Lucifer came falling from the portal, landing right before Xaen.
Xaen tried to grab the throat of Lucifer, only to have his wrist grabbed by Lucifer.
Lucifer swiftly turned around, using the momentum of his body to bring Xaen down to the ground.
Stunned, Xaen didn't expect a weak Lucifer to use human fighting skills. He was so stunned he didn't even know how his sword ended up in the hands of Lucifer.
He felt the sharp sword coming towards him, about to stab his forehead. He subconsciously took action and disappeared. He appeared in a different part of the room.
His heart was still thumping wildly as he looked at Lucifer, stunned.
"That's the skills that Morbius taught the students. The art of defense and counter," Alexi muttered, remembering the saying that this skill was taught.
He was right there, watching Morbius teach the skill to the students.
"You are using the skills of the person you killed yourself?" Mirali asked, yelling like crazy. "How shameless can a person be?"
Lucifer turned to Mirali, raising his hands to show his wrist. "You're talking about shame after fighting like this?"
Lucifer knew he couldn't win just with his fighting skills, so he needed to find a way, but he couldn't talk to Kellian to know what the flaw in the Limiter was. He could only depend on himself.
"That was good. I must say, I didn't think you'd remember how to fight like a human. Good to see my Academy and the teaching left an impression on you." Xaen smiled, patting his clothes.
"Albeit, even that can't save you. Since I don't have much time, I'll finish it fast."
"Rami, immobilize him!" He commanded one of the family heads.
A white-haired man stepped forward, clapping his hands.
A white rope, made purely of energy, came out of the ground, wrapped itself around the arms and legs of Lucifer, bringing him onto his knees.
