He silently watched Ermengarde leave his ancient house, and Ermengarde's figure slowly disappeared in Kazdel.

It is unknown whether Ermengarde has left Kazdel or returned to Leitania. Lucifer is still living in his old house.

Lucifer thought for a long time, and reason and logic told him that his choice was right.

He killed many Leitanians in the last war. If Lucifer's identity was discovered by the Leitanians, it would definitely cause a dispute. The lich clan could not always protect Lucifer, and his existence would only drag down the lich clan.

Secondly, from an emotional point of view, Lucifer did not regret not following in Ermengarde's footsteps.

It’s just a pity that Leitania is not a suitable place for me to retire.

If Leitania was replaced with some other region, Lucifer might have boarded Ermengarde's ship, but unfortunately it couldn't be replaced.

But it doesn’t matter. Lucifer doesn’t think that he will never see Ermengarde again.

Parting is just to meet again next time.

Chapter 20: It’s my brother

Some time passed, and Lucifer was too lazy to count how many days and nights there were.

In short, the commotion over at Leitania seems to be quite big, and they are even trying to transfer the conflict to Kazdel to resolve it.

However, Kazdel's Military Committee and the Tower of Babel's system gradually matured, and they also experienced a natural disaster along the way. Relying on the blood horses of Theresis and Theresia to carry, Kazdel did not let Leitania succeed.

However, there are still many forces eyeing Kazdel, and Lucifer, as the prince of the Blood Court, also needs to help out and run to the palace from time to time.

Just like today, Lucifer was summoned to the palace by Theresa as usual.

But before he could see Theresa, a purple figure appeared in front of Lucifer.

She turned around with awareness, and the moment she saw Lucifer, she became alert.

The lavender pupils reflected Lucifer, who was set against a black and white background.

"You... smell very strong of blood..."

With her sharp intuition, she quickly realized that the figure in front of her was not an ordinary Sarkaz.

Instead, Lucifer looked at the purple-haired Sarkaz girl with interest.

"you are?"

Lucifer had never seen this Sarkaz girl before, but she still had a savage air about her, not much different from the nimble primitive people in the mountains.

He heard that Theresa and Theresis picked up a child from outside when they passed through the natural disaster.

The answer is already obvious.

"I...Askalon..."

Ascalon, who had never been nurtured by civilization, was not very familiar with the language and culture, and did not even know how to conceal her hostility, but she remembered the name given to her by her twin brothers and sisters.

Lucifer looked at the young Ascalon and introduced himself:

"Lucifer, Tracy's good brother."

When Lucifer used Teresis as a shield, the hostility from Askalon was slightly reduced.

But the vigilance in her eyes did not relax at all, because Lucifer's existence made Ascalon feel that the danger was fatal enough.

Different from Tracy's aura, Lucifer's existence itself made Ascalon's hair stand on end, her heart beat rapidly, and her blood boil just by breathing. It was her instinct that was warning her.

Lucifer raised his eyebrows. Askalon's reaction was more or less among the best, but her mentality and basic skills had not yet been honed accordingly.

Facing the nervous and somewhat overwhelmed Askalon, the time has come to show Lucifer's amazing wisdom.

"Drink some blood wine to calm down?"

As he spoke, Lucifer took out a bottle of blood wine from Film from his arms.

When their emotions are getting out of control, the Blood Demon Clan relies on this to regain their sanity. Everyone who has used it says it’s good!

But Askalon on the opposite side obviously couldn't understand. She was just a survival master in the wilderness, not a blood demon or Wendigo who drank blood and ate raw meat.

"......"

Askalen, unable to understand, stood there in a daze, but thanks to Lucifer's nonsensical operation, she was no longer as alert as before.

See, this is wisdom.

But the atmosphere gradually became awkward. Just when Lucifer was about to rely on his amazing wisdom to break the impasse again, footsteps sounded in the corridor.

"Ah, Lucifer, Ascalon, we are just looking for you."

Theresa and Tracy walked side by side, and behind them was a Sarkaz boy who looked about the same size as Askalon.

He has yellow hair and seems to be a child being cared for by the Military Commission.

However, compared to Ascalon's wild style, the blond Sarkaz boy seemed a little cowardly and socially anxious.

Seeing Tracy and Theresa, Ascalon finally let go of his attitude and symbolically moved towards them.

In a place where she was unfamiliar with everyone, this brother and sister were the few people who made her feel safe.

Seeing Ascalon's subtle expression, Theresa felt a little embarrassed to tell the truth.

She stroked the back of Ascalon's head, lost in thought, which made the atmosphere even more awkward.

"Cough." It wasn't until Theresis coughed lightly that Theresia came back to her senses.

"Ah...well, Lucifer, I called you here today because I have a special mission for you."

"I'm all ears."

Lucifer put his blood wine back, looking like a corporate slave waiting for his boss's orders.

Theresa pushed Ascalon and the blond boy forward.

"Tracy and I have been quite busy lately, so I thought of asking you to help take care of Ascalon and Manfred."

"?"

Lucifer typed a question mark.

Does he look like he could take care of kids? Is he sure he won't give these kids PTSD?

Theresa seemed to have anticipated Lucifer's thoughts and added.

"Don't worry, they are both very strong children. How about just helping them practice in advance?"

"...But, wouldn't it be better to find the King of Scavengers?"

Even Theresa and Theresis were taught by the Scavenger King. So shouldn’t it be easy for him to take care of two children?

"Well, it's mainly because he has other things to do, and Lamaren has her own work."

Lucifer heard it.

Isn't this just calling out the fact that he is the one with the most free time?

"I remember that the prince has nothing to do now, why not find... forget it, just ignore what I said."

Lucifer was about to say something but stopped himself. He thought about the world line in which the Blood Demon Lord had two more crazy disciples, and suddenly he shuddered.

After much thought, it seems that only Lucifer has the ability and time to come and take care of the child.

Ascalon and Manfred were a little resistant when they heard that they were about to be handed over to a blood demon of unknown origin.

Not to mention Manfred, Ascalon, who was almost scared to sweat by Lucifer just now, is in a very complicated situation.

They still prefer Theresa or Theresis to teach them.

The despised Lucifer became anxious when he saw this scene.

You like Theresa and Theresis so much? Then he has to give you guys a thumbs up!

"Okay, Lucifer is different from other blood demons. Don't use stereotypes to look at him. Besides, he is no worse than me and Tracy."

With Theresa's comfort, Ascalon and Manfred finally accepted the fact.

If Lucifer is really as strong as Theresa said, then it is not impossible to become his disciple.

"Then I'll leave them to you, Lucifer."

Theresa clasped her hands together and smiled a smile that seemed to warm everyone’s heart.

Tracy, who was pretending to be an expert, spoke up next.

"I hope you can teach them both to become qualified warriors."

"It's packaged, my brother."

Chapter 21: I beat Lucifer? Really?

Lucifer declared victory and immediately took Ascalon and Manfred back to his home.

The backyard of the old house was a wasteland, which was just right for Ascalon and Manfred to practice. In addition, there were many books or files in Lucifer's old house, which were the spoils he had looted, and they could use them to popularize cultural knowledge in their spare time.

After pushing open the door of their house, Ascalon and Manfred followed in and instinctively felt a sense of discomfort.

Especially for Ascalon, for her who lives in the wilderness, this is undoubtedly a very unwise choice, like stepping into someone else's home turf.

"I forgot the beginning, and I forgot the middle. Anyway, welcome to hell. Find a room on the second floor. Pillows and other things will be delivered to you soon."

Considering that Ascalon and Manfred were just ordinary Sarkaz and too young, the thoughtful Lucifer asked Theresa for a series of resources such as daily necessities and food.

Theresa generously approved it, and someone would deliver it after a while.

And perhaps Theresa and Theresis valued these two children very much, and they even approved some rare condiments such as salt and saccharin for Lucifer, saying: no matter how hard life is, we cannot let the children suffer.

Ascalon and Manfred each chose a room. After a quick look at the layout, they found it surprisingly simple, which changed their views on Lucifer.

They thought the blood demon's house was as messy as a cockroach nest.

"Come with me if you're ready. I'll take you through the beginner's tutorial first."

Lucifer brought the two to his own treasury, which contained mostly spoils that Lucifer had found in the war.

Among them are various weapons and armor, as well as magic wands and other weapons.

"Pick a special weapon you like."

Although most of them are second-hand, they are all genuine heavy-industry military products, at least several generations higher than Kazdel's scrap metal.
