After stepping down from the flying sword, he shifted his attention to his surroundings and began to look around.
Creak!
Right after a few seconds, the door above them let out a creaking noise and closed itself," Fuck, now we are stuck" She cursed and menacingly looked at Michael like he was to blame for all this.
"Spit it out, did you build this place too without telling me?"
"What are you talking about? The fear toxin is my own creation, I don't know how it ended up here in such a large amount, the air was filled with fear toxin"
Gaya deeply sighed and said," obviously you were only thinking that you created it first but someone or something created it way before you "
"That seems to be the case," he said and began to walk forward while thinking about the fear toxin in the air and the mark of L on the door. The fear toxin, the mark of L, and everything in this dark forest seemed like they were all connected to his other persona, Lucifer.
Gaya conjured a ball of green fire to light their way. While walking into what seemed to be like an underground shelter, they noticed the surrounding walls around them have dense cracks on them, and several stone columns already collapsed. It was clear that this place has already corroded by time.
From the looks of things around them, Gaya was pretty sure that there is no treasure around them. However, she sensed the high density of Arch Energy as it was at least several times stronger than the outside.
"This place is perfect for cultivation. I think, whatever this place is has some kind of mechanism to increase the density of the Arch Energy"
Michael nodded blankly and kept walking. He was more concerned about how the dark forest has the fear toxin and the mark of Lucifer.
He followed the path in front of him and walked for quite a while until he saw a spacious hall with a large circular table in the middle.
"Welcome, Lord Lucifer" suddenly a deep voice appeared.
Both of them were shocked. They didn't expect there's actually someone inside and Michael didn't sense anything. Moreover, the voice clearly said Lucifer.
"Lucifer?" Gaya was confused and prepared for a battle as black smoke started to emerge from the table before them. Soon, the black smoke transformed into a middle-aged man. He floated above the table and then, he raised his hands and lit the torches around them. Michael tried to sense the cultivation level of the apparition before him but he simply failed and Gaya was not an exception.
"Who are you?"
"Lord Lucifer, I'm Damien Duke, the last member of the Order of Death. This is the recording I made in the year of Procavia, star position Squalus"
"Three thousand years ago?!" Gaya instantly recognized the year the recording was made. She was stunned and so was Michael.
"We lost the war with the Guardians, the Supreme Guardian, and the Elder Guardians killed all of my brothers and sisters. They destroyed all of our hideouts and this is the last one but they won't find this one as I made sure of it" Damien Duke said and Michael could see the anger and sadness in Damien's eyes.
"If you're seeing this, it means the prophecy has begun. From the Ashes of the order, Lord Lucifer will rise and with Lord Lucifer, the order will once again rule the world" There was a fire in Damien's eyes when he spoke the words.
"Lord Lucifer, the abyss will serve you as your home. Forgive your subordinate's incompetence for leaving you nothing, the Supreme Guardian and the Elder Guardians destroyed all of our resources and secrets except the book that led you here. It's not much but with the help of the book, you can rebuild the order to serve you in your path against the Guardians and your enemies" Michael looked at the old book in his hand, and then he noticed the hollow that was shaped like this book on the table.
"If you're lucky, you can still find some of the ruins of the order and pillage what's left of it. Also, Lord Lucifer, be careful, the Supreme Guardian and the Elder Guardians may even still be alive the time you watch this. I don't know whether they know about the prophecy or not but if they do, I'm sure that they are still searching for you. I did my best to protect the abyss but the beasts and the hell gas won't stand a chance against the Elder Guardians...."
Suddenly the apparition blurred and Damien's voice was abruptly cut off. Soon after, Damien's figure completely disappeared from their sight leaving with more questions than answers.
Especially Michael, he was still in shock and surprise. What he created to kill his enemies and earn experience points turned out to be a prophecy.
"System, do you have any connection with this order? And how did they know about me three thousand years ago?"
[System level is too low to answer the host's question]
"Human, take a look at this" a few meters away from the hall, Gaya called out for him. While thinking about everything Damien said, he came to Gaya and received another shock.
"Lucifer" He mumbled and looked at the painting hanging on the wall. It was the painting of his other persona, Lucifer. In the painting, he was wearing a more enhanced and different suit of black armor but the red eyes, as well as the skull mask, clearly indicated that the figure on the painting was none other than Lucifer.
"I have a weird feeling that you know this Lucifer, human. Besides, he said the dark forest is protected by hell gas and beasts but we saw no beasts on the way, and coincidentally, you said that you created this fear toxin" Michael could tell she's already started to suspect him that he's Lucifer.
"I'm Lucifer" before Gaya could beat around the bush further, Michael revealed the truth to her.
"I knew it!"
Creak!
Following her shout, another creaking sound appeared and made them quickly turn away their heads towards the round table.
She showed away all her questions aside and vigilantly followed Michael behind to the table. When they came to the table, everything was the same except, there was a throne in front of the round table.
The throne resembled the iron throne except instead of swords, this throne was made of skulls and bones. The throne radiated an ominous aura that made her feel disturbed and slightly afraid. It was almost 2.5 meters in height and 2 meters in width. She silently stared at him feeling the skulls and bones on the throne as his lips began to curl upwards.
Then with the grin on his face, Michael sat on the throne and felt something powerful run through his body.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the abyss is now the Host's Base of Operations!]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for becoming the Lord of the Order of Death]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for acquiring a Legendary class Item, The Abyssal throne. The Host's skill Death range has upgraded to level 2]
The system sounded in his mind and widened his grin. He knew he can't change what happened in the past or what has happened to the Order or why did the Guardians destroy them, however, he can decide what's going to happen in the future as Lucifer and Ghost.
"So are you going to tell me what the hell is going on here?" Gaya came before him and leaned on the table.
"System, equip the Lucifer attire"
"Shit!" The next moment, Gaya jumped back in shock because she saw Michael transform into someone else or something else in a flash.
"Lucifer" she mumbled and stared at the red eyes. Although she was a Core Formation cultivator now, she couldn't help but feel afraid looking at him in front of her.
"Hu...Human"
"I'm Lucifer," He said again but this time, his voice was inhumane and terrifying.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 1000 badass points]
He slowly stood up from the throne as Gaya stepped backward. She could sense the antidote in her body fighting against the fear toxin evaporating from his body and preventing her from hallucinating as well as feeling terrified again.
"What I'm about to tell you must stay between us" because the suit made him somewhat look taller and bulkier, she had to slightly look up.
Since she had reached 95% loyalty towards him, he had no problem trusting her. Therefore, he told her what happened to Vardan and the many criminals he killed in Sarton and Bradford. He obviously didn't tell anything about the system's involvement as he said he found the suit of armor in a cave during one of his travels.
After silently hearing everything he said, she let out a long sigh and looked directly into his red eyes.
"What's our plan here Lucifer?"
"We are going to fulfill the prophecy"
"You mean?"
"Yes, we will rebuild the order and conquer this world. I will kill anyone who stands in my way"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
