One True God

When Rouge heard that it was now time from the outside of the carriage, he quickly decided that to go out.

Of course, he told Lucifer to get out, too, since it was time for their checking.

And when Lucifer heard Rouge, he just followed right after him.

Well, Rouge was technically his boss now so that was only natural.

And after they went out of the carriage, they were quickly met with multiple lines of different men standing tall in front of them.

These men were Rouge's men who were taking care of the other carriage, but...they were not standing tall in front of him because they were waiting for Rouge or anything of the sort.

The reason why they were standing there was because...that was how things work.

And when Rouge saw those multiple lines of men, Rouge turned his head around and spoke to Lucifer, "Follow me. When I stop, you stop as well and stand tall."

Rouge didn't wait for Lucifer's answer at all as he just started to walk towards the multiple lines of men.

Of course, Lucifer just followed right after him again while observing the multiple lines of men.

Even though their boss has just appeared and was now walking right in front of them, the men who were standing tall didn't greet him at all.

They were just silent as if they were waiting for something to happen, and that was indeed the truth as they were just waiting for Rouge to be in his position.

And it didn't take long for Rouge to be in his position as he turned around and stopped walking.

He was looking in the same direction where his men were looking, but...he was in a separate file as he was all alone standing on the very front.

However, since Rouge ordered Lucifer to stop at the same time he stopped, Lucifer...was standing right beside him as he also looked in the same direction where Rouge was looking at.

And when this happened, the various men who could see Lucifer from behind had a thought swimming in their minds.

'Whoa...who is that kid?'

'The captain actually allowed someone to stand beside him?'

'Tsk, from what I can see, he's a new guy. Did he lick his ass or something?'

There were various opinions about Lucifer as there were various men standing behind him, but the most important fact is that...all these men were surprised.

And there is only one reason why they would be surprised about this.

It is the fact that Lucifer is standing alongside Rouge, and that means that...Lucifer is going to become the vice-captain of the squad that Rouge is leading.

That was why they were all getting bitter thoughts about it since they all knew that Lucifer was just a new recruit yet he already surpassed them.

However, just like how there were bitter people about this, there were also people who were amazed and were straight-up admiring Lucifer.

After all, these people were different, and in a big group like this, various opinions about Lucifer would definitely surface.

But...it is safe to say that all of them are all jealous and bitter about Lucifer being placed in a higher position than them.

And, of course, Lucifer was able to detect all this jealousy flying in the air with ease. However, he just didn't care about them as he looked right in front with a flat expression on his face.

Well, there was something that even Lucifer was curious about, and that is...checking that would be done by several men that Rouge talked about when they were still in the carriage.

Lucifer could feel that there was no strange presence and he could confidently say that the people in this place were the only ones who are standing around.

This means...those people that Rouge was talking about were not even here, which is weird.

After all, if Lucifer couldn't detect them, that means that they were not here. There is no way that some other demon would be able to deceive his senses.

Lucifer could confidently say that no one would be able to do that even though he was basically weakened right now.

Of course, except for really strong demons and the other Hell Gods, but...there is no way that there would be really strong demons in this place, much less the other Hell Gods.

And it seems that it was indeed the truth that there would be no other demons who would be able to escape Lucifer's senses as he could feel that there were several presences that are moving very fast.

'Oho? Are they the ones who would check us?' Lucifer thought as he looked sideways.

And as soon as he did, he saw the shadow moved from the ground to another location as it disappeared.

There were several shadows that were moving around that Lucifer could feel, and it seems that...this was the process of checking.

Lucifer could feel that these several shadows were going each and every one of the men standing in this place with their ridiculous pace.

'Hmm... so this is how they plan to check us. This way is indeed efficient and fast.'

Lucifer thought as he observed how the several men checked each and every one of them here.

And finally...the time has come for Lucifer as he felt a shadow moving towards him.

It seems that he was the next person who would be observed, though Lucifer didn't know what exactly they are observing.

Of course, Lucifer just acted like how he did earlier with a flat expression on his face.

He looked like he didn't know anything at all, but that was only normal since Lucifer could control his emotions very well.

The only time Lucifer wasn't able to control his emotions is when his anger turns into rage.

Anyway, Lucifer could now feel that every part of his body was being observed by some kind of predator with its sharp eyes.

He could feel every part of his entire body stinging and fidgeting around naturally, but he tried to stay put since he could feel the other men trying to stop themselves from fidgeting around.

Of course, that was all acting. He even looked like he was struggling to keep himself still.

However, there was something weird going on right now, and that was...

'Isn't it taking a bit long? What's going on?'

Right, the observation being done on Lucifer by the shadow was taking too long.

As Lucifer has taken the time to observe the observers while they were observing the others, Lucifer knew that the shadows only looked at the other briefly and then proceed to the others.

However, this time, it seems like the shadow...the several shadows were just looking at Lucifer quietly but surely.

'Hmm...did they notice that I'm too strong or something?' Lucifer thought.

Even if the observers would be able to notice that Lucifer was not an ordinary kid or something like that, it would still be fine.

Since he was here now at his destination, Lucifer could just start the massacre and kill all the people in this place.

He would be able to get his job done, and he would be able to obliterate the Warmester Denoble House.

Of course, Lucifer still didn't know the locations of the other organizations, but he knew that they were in the capital city so he would just be able to hunt them down later when he's done here.

That was why...this situation wasn't really that dangerous for Lucifer as he could just literally destroy them right now.

However, there was a reason why Lucifer was still controlling himself despite this, and that was...

'I want to kill them quietly...if it causes too much of an uproar, I wouldn't be able to replace the head and control the Warmester from the shadows.'

Right, what Lucifer wanted to do here was to gain control of the Warmester Denoble House.

If he could just kill all of the high executives, that would be possible.

What's more, if he killed all of the people here, that would...defeat the purpose of him sneaking in since Lucifer wanted to make use of the 'organizations' that the Warmester Denoble House made.

If he killed them all, there would be no members alive of the organization.

That was why...Lucifer wanted to have his disguise not be blown right now.

So that he wouldn't have his hand be forced.

However, it seems that Lucifer didn't have to mind about any of that as the shadows...finally began to move away from him.

Although it took a little bit longer than the others, Lucifer could feel that the shadows finished their observation as they left one by one.

'Hmm...why did they take longer to inspect me? Is it because I'm new and I'm standing next to this shit?' Lucifer thought as he looked at Rouge.

However, there was no answer that came to his mind since...he didn't care.

And it seems that this was finally done as a voice resounded out, "Alright, you can pass now!"
