Me, Lucifer, and my family.

They reappeared inside the room after leaving Li Jing's Void space.

A loud banging sound from the door was immediately heard, along with the voice of a woman and kids shouting: "Li Jing! Are you there?!" and "Mom?!!! Please respond!!!"

Li Jing was surprised and anxious to hear the tone of her parents' voices calling her.

Lucifer, on the other hand, still remained calm and firm as he snapped his finger and canceled his spell, protecting the room from any ill-intent of disturbance.

"I think we're so screwed, Li Jing. I forgot to remove the barrier inside the room. "

"You don't say?!!!"

Li Jing shoves Lucifer away from her and immediately runs off towards the door and opens it up.

Upon opening the door, her kids, Qing Long, Baihu, and Xuan Hu, immediately leapt towards her and hugged her, as their faces worried and tense.

"Mom!" said Li Jing's kids.

However, on the other hand, Li Jing's mother, Li Na, glares at her furiously.

"Li Jing…! What exactly are you doing?! I just told you to entertain your friend! Don't tell me you go far beyond that?!"

"Mother... about that."

Before Li Jing can say anything more than she has to, Lucifer interrupts and speaks formally.

"With all due respect, Mrs. Li, But, please don't scold her anymore. Scold me instead. As her husband, I'll take all the blame in this matter, so if you have anything to say, please say it to me instead!"

Lucifer firmly speaks, yet formally, to Li Na.

However, even with all those formalities, Li Na is shocked by one thing.

And that is...

"Y-y-your her hu-husband…? D-did you two... " Then Li Na lost consciousness and fell down on the floor due to shock.

"Mother/Grandmother!"

Then..

Outside of the restaurant,

In a certain place, inside of a formidable fortress, a man walks out to the balcony.

It's Syra.

Wearing a white shirt and a short and layered silk night gown, Syra sat down on the ledge and gazed up into the sky.

"Haizz..." Syra sighed deeply... with a face that looked dejected and anxious.

"Miss Li Jing... Why can't you accept my feelings? Is it because my strength is not as strong as yours? Or is it because you have kids?" Then again, Syra sighs... He is then jolted all of a sudden as he remembers the guy that Li Jing was with when he met her. "Wait... She said that guy was her friend, right? But if it turns out that guy is her husband, then that must be the reason why she hesitates to reply."

Then, in the midst of his thoughts, the sound of knocking on his door was heard, and the voice of a firmly young man spoke behind it.

"Your Highness Syra, my deepest apologies for disturbing you at such a late hour, but there's a man looking for you. He stated that this is an urgent report for you. They also said that you hired them. "

Syra didn't open his door but instead gave her reply to the man behind and spoke firmly and dignifiedly.

"Oh, is that so? I know them. Let them in. I'll meet them in my office. Make sure you watch them carefully.

"Yes, your highness!"

Syra gets ready and suits himself up in much more dignified royal attire.

A couple of minutes later, Syra walks out of his room.

He was greeted by a couple of formidable guards, without a word, but instead the simple act of lowering their heads.

Syra left the room.

The guards didn't follow; instead they stood firm beside the door and awaited.

After Syra leaves the room, he heads towards his office and enters.

An old man with a crane, wearing a white long-sleeved shirt, layered by a long black coat and black shoes, has stood up from the sofa.

It's Death!

Syra was immediately shocked and wondered who this old man was as he entered the room?!

However, he didn't speak, but instead he ordered his men that were watching the old man inside the room to leave. Then he walks towards his chair, where a wooden exquisite table has been set up for only him.

Then he took a seat...

Death looked at Syra calmly, with no malice or malice toward him.

Thus, Syra asks...

"Who are you? What did you tell my guards? Are you from the guild?" The firm voice of Syra as he asks questions

Death just smiled as he calmly sat down on the sofa.

"A prince, right? I have a message for you... 'My children will be born. Thus, never bother us ever again and find someone else. your long-lost sister-in-law.' That's all…"

Then Death stood up, turned away and was about to leave.

However, before even Death made a move, Syra yelled.

"Wait...! From whom are you talking about?! And what do you mean, 'Long Lost Sister-in-law'?!"

Anxious and in shock, Syra stood up, his body shivering from what he had heard.

Death took a glance at him and smiled.

"Thy vale of fate is soon after you. I hope you find out. Farewell…"

"Wait!!!"

As Syra shouted, Death snapped his finger and vanished through thin air.

Syra slammed his desk due to his anger and curiosity. What was that about?

He couldn't comprehend the thoughts he wanted as he gritted his teeth.

"Long Lost Sister-in-law? My brothers are not even married yet! And the eldest sibling is..."

"!" From that moment, Syra realized something.

"Wait... Elder Brother Ren once said that he had met his fated one. Don't tell me... No, no, no. That was 7 years ago."

Syra is too frightened, but he tries to deny it and shake his head.

However, he thinks deeply about his past and thinks again.

"But if she's the one... then... Miss Li Jing is!"

Then Syra, with his hands clenched, slammed his desk once again. However, this time, his fist left a mark on the desk.

"No wonder… She couldn't reply at that time. She knew... She already knew what I was to her."

Then Syra starts to tremble, but not in fear but in excitement.

He sat down once on his chair, brushed his hair up, and laughed.

"Wahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Just like a mad man, his voice echoed throughout every corner of the fortress and his office.

"I get it now...! Everything!! So that's why Brother gave up on the throne! She is his wife! If Father knows about this... I bet things are going to be exciting!"

However, in the midst of his excitement, Syra stops.

"Wait… She informed me that she had a child... Then who is that guy she was with earlier this afternoon? Is she seeing him? She must be... And also that statement that the old man left. He said a child's 'her children will be born' then she's pregnant. But with whom? I can't think of anything else besides that arrogant man!"

Then, once again, he clenches his fist and slams his table.

"7 years after my brother's death? She already found one?!"

His anger keeps increasing every time he thinks about Lucifer being friendly with Li Jing, her sister-in-law.

However, even in that case, he shakes his head and calms himself down, brushes his hair up and lays his back on the back of the chair to cool off.

"No, no, no… I shouldn't blame her. 7 years raising my brother's children alone in the forest, 3 of them at that... I get it; she's lonely. She's trying to forget about my brother and move forward for the sake of their kids. "

Then Syra sighed out of exhaustion.

"...haizz. I want to see her again. "

After thinking about Li Jing's face and figures inside of his memories, Syra finally felt the tiredness and stood up.

"I'll try to see her tomorrow..."

Syra stood up and left his office and headed immediately back towards his room.

As he arrived, he didn't change his clothes, but instead he dropped his body on to the bed and laid down, taking a deep sleep after that.

Meanwhile, back where Li Jing and her family, including Lucifer, are.

An hour before, Death sent a message to Syra.

Li Na herself now interrogates both Lucifer and Li Jing.

"So... Li Jing : Explain this to me, everything! Thoroughly!"

"Yes, Mother!!!"

With such malicious intimidation from Li Na, Li Jing didn't hesitate but immediately explained everything that happened between Lucifer and herself inside the room.

However, Li Jing takes everything wisely to make sure not to mention her past life and her kids' history that she is laboring over right now.

It only takes a few moments, as Li Jing said.

After Li Jing is done explaining everything, Li Jing suddenly vomits and takes a moment before speaking again.

"Mother..." Li Jing took a quick glance at her mother while being scared and frightened.

In shock, Li Na stutters!

"Y-y-you… You're telling me that you're pregnant again?!!"

Li Jing didn't answer her, but instead she just nodded while she wiped her mouth and cleaned the floor where she vomited.

In a rage, Li Na yelled at her!

"How did that happen?! No! When did that happen?!!!"

While avoiding her mother's wrath and gaze, Li Jing speaks in a mild voice and says, "Today, mother..."

A ridiculous statement came from her daughter, making Li Na's mind explode and yell at her daughter even more!

"You two basically met today!!! And you're telling me you're already expecting his child? How's that possible!!!"

Li Jing didn't answer her mother, knowing it'd only make things more complicated. Lucifer is an Archangel, a being that defies everything. So the law of nature likely never works on him... and explaining this to his mother would likely never solve the problem she is having right now.

Thus, Li Jing chose the silent treatment and accepted her mother's wrath.

And so Li Na continued yelling at her daughter.

"How are you supposed to build your own city while you having a pregnancy period?!"

Li Jing didn't respond, but instead she closed her mouth and looked away, like an idiot.

At that moment, Lucifer intervenes and speaks in the midst of it.

"Mother-in-law… If you may allow me to speak, but, I can take care everything regarding about my wife's dream."

"Y-you what?! Do you have any idea what you are saying? Building a city is not that simple! You need people, supplies, resources, and time! For you to say that you can take care of everything... do you take me as an idiot?!"

Lucifer looks straight into Li Na's knife-like gaze and speaks firmly.

"I will... When I say 'I will', I will... I once helped my father create a world in which such a city is not to be compared to. So please just leave everything to me. I'll make sure that I won't disappoint you. "

Li Na is starting to get troubled by the determination and will that Lucifer is showing off, but she is somehow perplexed by what Lucifer just said.

"World? Ain't that too much?" Li Na's thoughts:

Out of frustration, she sighed, and then stood up and yelled...

"You better take the responsibilities seriously! And don't die while doing it!"

Then Li Na turned away and left the room.

Upon leaving the room, Li Jing, her sons, enters the room.

Li Qing Long and Li Baihu glare at Lucifer as they enter the room, while Li Xuan Hu takes a glance and lowers his head in a sign of respect.

"Mother!!! Is it true this guy will be our father?!"

Li Qing Long pointed at Lucifer, disrespectful as he yelled!

Li Xuan Hu, who was with them and standing beside him, immediately smacked his brother, Li Qing Long, in the back of the head.

"Shut your mouth for a minute, you idiot!"

"Ouch!" Li Qing Long reacts to this after being hit by his brother, Li Xuan Hu.

As Li Xuan Hu steps in, he moves forward towards Lucifer and formally kneels and bows down in front of Lucifer, speaking softly and calmly.

"Father, I am Li Xuan Hu, eldest among my brothers. Allow me to thank you once again for saving me. If it's you that will take care of our mother. Then I, Li Xuan Hu, would gladly accept you as my father. So please... take care of me and my brothers as well. "

Li Jing was surprised and felt emotional about how formal and kind his son, Li Xuan Hu, is.

Her emotion caused her tears to flow, so she stood up and moved forward to hug Li Xuan Hu tightly.

"Thank you for accepting him, my son! I thought I would have a problem explaining things, but I never thought that you would take the initiative to present yourself. I love you so much!"

Li Jing did not let go of his son, instead rubbing her face against his cheeks while tightly hugging him.

Li Xuan Hu didn't mind her mother's emotional response to him; thus he continued to speak calmly to Lucifer.

"Father... Please look after us from now on."

Due to the fact that Li Jing was hugging him tightly, Li Xuan Hu just bowed his head.

At that moment, Li Baihu joins in and kneels and bows down.

"Please take care of us, Father."

Lucifer smiled blissfully, as if Li Jing felt proud of it.

However, Li Qing Long, on the other hand, is so brushed off and dispirited that he can't believe that besides him, everyone accepts Lucifer, much less his mother as well.

So he yelled.

"I'll never accept you as my father!"

Then he runs away.

Li Jing was freaked out, so she yelled out of concern to her son, as a mother.

"Wait, Li Qing Long!"

Li Jing tries to follow him, however, but is immediately stopped by Lucifer as Lucifer holds her right hand.

"Wait... Let me talk to him."

"Eh?" Li Jing was surprised for a moment after hearing such a calm statement from Lucifer.

"I'll talk to him as his father."

"But, Lucifer..."

"It's alright, I won't be too hard on him."

Although Li Jing felt a bit troubled and in-pain, as a mother, she couldn't help it but to trust Lucifer and believe that everything would be alright.

"Ohh... OK."

Then, Lucifer stood up and left the room.

Leaving Li Jing behind with her two sons

Li Jing speaks with her voice, afraid and frightened.

"l-l-Li Xuan Hu... l-l-Li Baihu... My sons... Please forgive your mother for being disloyal and not telling you this all the time. "

Li Jing sat formally and lowered her head to her children, her hands clenched on her clothes, fearful of confronting her son directly.

Li Xuan Hu sees her mother trembling, so he speaks softly and hugs her.

"Mother... It's alright. We know that you've felt lonely from time to time. Although we don't know why, we were grateful that you still faced us, until now, with a smile and gave us a wonderful motherly love. So... as long as you're happy, then so do we, and we'll support you. So please... Don't cry anymore. Because if you don't…"

Then, the sound of a hiccup from Li Jing, with her tears overflowing from her eyes.

"...I don't think I can hold mine as well, mother."

From behind Li Jing, with her son hugging her, Li Xuan Hu's eyes were starting to overflow with tears.

Li Baihu, who was there, felt the emotion and hugged his mother with his eyes flickered with tears that overflowed from his eyes.

"Mother... I am sorry for everything. But please don't cry. "

Li Jing lets go of her clothes and hugs her kids and wholeheartedly speaks from the bottom of her heart and tells them what she feels.

"Thank you... I am very grateful that you three are my kids. Thank you for forgiving me and accepting me! Thank you so much."

Thus, their emotional moments continue...

Meanwhile, outside of the room, Lucifer is tracking down where Li Qing Long is.

Upon searching for a while, as he went outside, he jumps off high in the sky and looks down on the city.

"Death..." Lucifer asserts himself firmly.

Then, it appears from his behind.

"What is it, Lucifer?"

"Have you found out something about this world?"

"Hmm... Not much as you wanted, but of course. "

"Tell me..."

Thus, death explains everything.

"Just like on Earth, there are many different types of so-called "gods" here as well. Each race has their own god to pray to. Although unlike on earth, the gods here actually respond to their prayers and bless them. "

"Hmm, so it's pretty much the same, Then… Is there anything else?"

"Well, this is quite intriguing because I found out that Gabriel is here too."

"!"

Lucifer turns and glares at Death.

"Ohh… is that so? So where is he?"

"He already left, but he left a message for you."

"And what is that?"

"'Don't change the tide of your fate, or thou shall face your first despair, is what the book says.'"

"The book... huh. That's quite intriguing, indeed. "

Lucifer looked down at the inn where Li Jing and her kids were staying and wondered for a moment before speaking once again.

"Death… I understand that the fact that you and father can go against the book itself. So... this is the last time I'll ask for something from you. Protect my kids and Li Jing's kids from anything that might kill them. "

Death gleamed with hope and joy from what he heard.

He couldn't believe a proud being like Lucifer was sincerely requesting something from 'death' himself.

Death just smiles slightly and speaks politely.

"Will do..."

Then Lucifer looked down below and caught a glimpse of Li Qing Long's silhouette, sitting on the bench, dejected and dispirited. Li Qing Long is alone and crying all by himself.

"Now, if you excuse me, I have a problem that I have solved."

"Of course… Then, I, too, go to attend to and assist Miss Li Jing. "

Death snaps his finger and vanishes once again.

Lucifer, on the other hand, was still staring at Li Qing Long before snapping his finger and disappearing in mid-air, only to reappear behind the bench where Li Qing Long was.

"Damn it!!! Why did I say that? I don't want Mom to hate me!" Frustrated and depressed, Li Qing Long cried out, but he tried to stop it with his hands, wiping it out, but he couldn't stop it until it overflowed.

Then Lucifer spoke from his behind.

"Then apologize to her."

"!"

Li Qing Long flinched at the sound of such a familiar voice.

Even though his face was covered in tears and he had a regretful expression, he immediately turned and looked at his behind.

Lucifer didn't shed remorse or feel pity towards Li Qing Long, but instead he felt joy as he smiled upon Li Qing Long.

"…Li Qing Long, was it? You don't have to like me; you don't have to say sorry to me. You can despise me all you want, but..." As Lucifer starts to speak, he walks forward to the bench and sits down beside Li Qing Long, continuing to speak softly. "...You shouldn't hate your mother's decision. She raised you three, didn't she? She gave you the love of a mother that everyone wants. She protected you, guided you, and even cared about you. So... respect your mother's decision. "

Lucifer looked straightly then smiled at Li Qing Long before he tapped Li Qing Long's head with his hands while Li Qing Long's face was still covered with tears and snot on his nose.

"…Don't worry, as much as I respect and love your mother, I'll protect and love you as well. If you're not satisfied with how I treated your mother, then punish me with whatever you want. That I'll change and become a better father in your eyes. "

Just like any little kid, Li Qing Long emotionally cried out to his heart's content, making Lucifer's hand that was tapping Li Qing Long's head let go.

"It's not that I hate you. I hate that our mother might be taken away from us! And I don't want that to happen! I love my mother more than anyone else! That's why when Grandma said that you'd become our father, I was afraid! Afraid that we will lose our mother!"

Lucifer felt relieved and sighed out before speaking softly.

"Let me tell you a story about myself... I once rebelled against my father because of his sudden decision. I never hated him; I just hated his decisions that he bestowed on us. I thought that if I went to prove him wrong, he'd change his mind, but... I was wrong. No matter how smart I am and how perfect I have become, my father's decision is something else. I realized only today, until I met your mom once again, that he was right... They're better than us. So stop being stubborn and don't become like me. "

And then Lucifer smiles, and once again taps Li Qing Long's head.

"You silly child... Don't you ever think that I would take your mother away from you three. Your mother will seriously kill me if I do that. Your mother loves you; aren't you aware of that?"

Then Li Qing Long wiped his tears and looked firmly at Lucifer.

"Promise me that you won't let mom get hurt or take her away from us. Promise us..."

Li Qing Long shows his right pinky finger.

Lucifer looked at him and spoke calmly.

"What is that?"

"A Pinky swear! My mother said that doing this is like an oath. A divine promise to uphold one's future. "

"I see... Then let me swear to you."

Lucifer shows his right pinky and then tangles with the right pinky of Li Qing Long.

"I swear... In the name that my father gave to me, I will protect Li Jing and never take her away from her kids. "

And then, their fingers gleamed a bit, then vanished instantly.

Li Qing Long became dumbfounded, seeing a gleam of light from their pinky finger, while Lucifer just smiled casually.

"W-what was that?!" Li Qing Long asks, his face disturbed and anxious.

"That... it's a divine oath. One that must fulfill the promise of another. "

"Divine oath?! Does that mean that there's a God watching over us right now?!"

Lucifer looked above him and said...

"He always does..."

As Lucifer, he looked and smiled sincerely above the sky. He looked back once again at Li Qing Long and then stood up, holding Li Qing Long's hands.

"Let's go… It's already late and your mother is waiting."

"Eh?"

Then, as Lucifer grabs and holds Li Qing Long in his arms, he snaps his finger and they disappear instantly.

As they vanished, they appeared in front of Li Jing, where she, Li Xuan Hu, and Li Baihu were sitting on the bed wearing pajamas and nightgown for Li Jing herself, as if they were waiting for them.

Li Qing Long stood in front of her mother, scared and afraid to speak or even look at her mother.

However, from the moment they appeared, Li Jing didn't hesitate and immediately hugged her son tightly.

"It's alright if you don't accept the situation right now. It's alright if you're scared about this. But, you shouldn't forget that you're my child, Li Qing Long. I will never accept it if you leave me. I am your mother. I love you all so much that I am afraid that I might lose you. So, please... pardon me for this."

Li Qing Long didn't say anything, but his tears fell out of his eyes.

He didn't make any sounds or noises. Instead, he embraced her mom while his face was buried in Li Jing's chest.

Moments later, Li Qing Long fell asleep on his mom's chest.

Li Jing noticed and then carried him to the bed and laid him down.

"Lu… Can you make a futon?"

Lucifer took a glance behind Li Jing's back and asked her casually.

"Just one?"

"Yeah... make three pillows as well as a large blanket."

"Sure,"

Lucifer snaps his finger, then a large folded futon and three pillows appear.

Lucifer held the item he summoned with his left hand and laid it down on the floor.

"Here... Should I prepare it for you?"

"Wait… let me help you." Using only her left hand as help, while holding her son using her right arm.

Both Lucifer and Li Jing neatly arrange the futon, blanket, and pillows on the floor.

And then, Li Jing laid Li Qing Long down, nice and quietly.

The moment they're finished, Li Jing holds onto Lucifer's right arm and drags him outside, but before they leave the room.

Li Jing leaves a statement for her kids.

"Li Xuan Hu, Li Baihu, try to make sure not to make noise for your brother not to wake up."

"Yes, mother..." Both Li Baihu and Li Xuan Hu reply in such low but soft voices.

Li Jing smiled then. "You guys should sleep now as well."

Both Li Xuan Hu and Li Baihu just nodded as their mother and father left the room.

At that moment, Li Xuan Hu used a wind spell to put the light off the candle, then slept after.

Meanwhile, outside of the room, in the hallway, Death, Lucifer, and Li Jing are looking at each other.

Li Jing is quite puzzled as she looks directly into Death's eyes.

However, she has a job to take care of, so she speaks politely to death.

"Sir, It's an honor to meet you again... Although I know I've been quite rude to not notice you the entire time, please allow me to apologize. "

Li Jing lets go of her hand that was wrapped around Lucifer's arm and lowers her head in front of Death.

Death just smiles as he finds it pleasing to his eyes.

"Raise your head, Lucy, No, Long Jiang, Oh, should I say, Li Jing?"

Li Jing raised her head.

"Li Jing is the name I live up for in this world. Long Jian is already dead. Please do me the honor to use my current name from now on."

"Gladly..."

Li Jing smiled blissfully as the harmony around them became easy.

Then Death spoke curiously.

"Li Jing… You might already have kids, but the labor regarding with your children is not normal like anyone else's. It'll become excruciating..."

"Ah…?! You mean the side-effect that I'll become horny?"

"!"

For a moment, Death became dumbfounded and speechless at Li Jing's casually saying indecent words.

"…That's just a small part, but the main reason is that your children are eating your life force immensely."

"Yeah, I know that already."

"Li Jing, you were reincarnated here and live in someone else's body. What do you think the exchange for that is?"

"!" Li Jing rose from her memories of the time that she met the owner of her body.

"I am sure the soul you've taken is already long gone."

"But! My kids are not like me! They'll be reborn in a new body that no one has yet!"

As Li Jing increased her voice due to her emotion, Lucifer immediately snapped his finger and set a barrier around them without Li Jing realizing it.

As a result, death continues to speak.

"Li Jing, you shouldn't take this easily... Your kids came from heaven. A soul from heaven is different from wandering souls in the universe or new-born souls. They're much more potent than ordinary ones. Every time a soul from heaven is reborn, one always dies. Since they eat the host life-force... However, that's only the case for those people that don't have knowledge or weren't aware that their child is a soul from heaven or don't have support for celestial beings from heaven. "

With respect, Li Jing sighs for a moment before replying.

"Death, Lucifer already explained everything to me... Everything, why I need him, and his seeds, and the feeding process for my kids. Lucifer told me everything."

Then..

Li Jing paused for a moment before releasing a small malignant intent.

Li Jing tipped her head up to glare at Lucifer, who was standing behind her, her face completely furious at being reminded of this matter again.

"Isn't that right, L.u.c.i.f.e.r?"

Then Lucifer gulped and spoke without looking at Li Jing, who was standing in front of him glaring at him.

"Ok, that's enough... Let's wrap this conversation up. Li Jing needs to sleep... However, Death, there's something we'd like you to do. "

Lucifer took a glance at Li Jing's serious face.

"Li Jing, hand over your letter to Death..."

Li Jing, who was irritated, immediately snapped from it and became docile and opened her dimensional space, then took out the letter out of it.

As her hands shake, she carefully and politely hands over to Death.

"?" Death took it and left me wondering.

And then Lucifer speaks...

"Death, I'd like you to hand over that letter to the guy named Syra."

"Syra? Wasn't that the person who ordered those hooligans to watch over you guys?"

"Ordered? Watch over?" Li Jing was immediately disturbed and skeptical about what she heard.

"Yep… That's the one. Since we already know where that guy is staying due to the information we gathered from those rats, just take a visit and hand over that letter to him."

"I see... Then this won't take a while."

"I am counting on you."

Then death snaps his finger and vanishes before their eyes.

As Death left both of them behind, Li Jing took a glance at Lucifer and immediately got bashful.

"S-so… Let's sleep?"

Lucifer sighs and pats her head, despite her shy and pouty appearance.

"Yeah… Let's. "

Thus, Li Jing goes on and enters the other room in front of where her kids are.

Holding hands and with nice harmony between them, Lucifer and Li Jing fall asleep in bed, sharing and cuddling with their bodies close to each other.

"Today's only the 1st day, yet a lot of things already happened… But, still Lucifer… Thank you for saving my son."

From behind where Lucifer was hugging her, Lucifer smiled and pulled Li Jing closer to him.

"You're always welcome..."

As Li Jing's nape was closer to Lucifer's face, Lucifer kissed her.

Li Jing flinches a bit but doesn't mind it. Instead, she blushes.

"Lu… Can I ask you something?"

"Sure… What is it?"

"Are you serious about what you said about my mother? That you'll help me build a city?"

"Of course..."

"Then... I assume it won't take long, is it?"

"Nope... Just give me 7 days. I will create a paradise city where all races can live and enjoy it. A city that has both a magical and a modern age. A Type 1 civilization."

"I hope everything will go well..."

Thus, both of them went to sleep...

Or is it?

Lucifer opens his eyes and slowly moves away from Li Jing, then sits on the bed.

"Death... Are you there?"

Hazy but still firm, Lucifer spoke quietly.

"What is it, Lu?"

"What did those guys say? Are they ready to leave?"

"Of course..."

"Great... This world needs an absolute cleanse. If the so-called 'Gods' here interfere, I'll make them sure who they are dealing with. "

"As always,..." Thought by Death as he looks upon Lucifer.

A new path of faith has been set upon in a new world.
