Moreover, he didn't have any siblings. He was an only child, unlike Milena.
It was interesting to know more about Milena and how she reached the place where she currently was. That also made him understand her more. It seemed like she was more like him than he cared to admit.
She also suffered and then went on to take over the entire continent, just like he was planning to.
"Anyway, that's how we reached here. The Divine Empire was once again established in its full glory where it previously was. As for the citizens of the other Empires, they weren't allowed to stay in the Divine Empire."
"That's why three nations were established on the three corners of the continent to house the people of four Empires that survived the onslaught. And that's the full history.."
Arthur finished the story before observing the expressions of Lucifer. "What are you thinking now?"
Lucifer seemed lost in deep thoughts as he tapped the couch with his fingers.
"I'm thinking about Sirius. It's intriguing how he sided with Milena in all this. It just sounds too convenient. Why would he oppose his Empire to side with an eight year old kid? I don't believe it was because of sympathy," he expressed his concerns.
"You're saying he had ulterior motives?" Arthur asked as a smirk spread across his lips.
"He's the only person in Milena's squad who isn't turned by her. That means he isn't forced to have absolute loyalty to her. Isn't that right?" Lucifer asked.
"Moreover, if he wanted to, he could have destroyed the Arian Empire himself. He could have used his Invisibility to kill the Emperor and the Princes instead of running. It somehow seems like he forced the circumstances," he further added.
"He has invisibility?" Arthur asked, taken aback.
He had never known about the abilities of Sirius, so it came as a surprise.
"That's right. He has invisibility. I fought him too. And that isn't all. I'm not sure what it was, but he has something else too," Lucifer replied.
"As for what, I don't know. But I believe his other ability will be the key to understanding why he helped Milena and what his ulterior motives were," he further added.
Even though Arthur had also been suspicious of Sirius, he didn't believe Lucifer's words instantly. Lucifer was still a stranger who might be lying, he believed.
However, he also remembered an incident that made him slightly tilt towards believing him.
When he died, he didn't know that an arrow was coming to him. In fact, he had looked all around just a moment ago to make sure no attacks were coming at him.
Unfortunately, an arrow stabbed him in the back out of nowhere as if it had appeared out of nowhere. At that time, he wondered how it happened since the arrow wasn't invisible.
He also had a feeling that someone had stabbed that arrow instead, but there was no one behind him.
If Sirius could go invisible, he could certainly hide the arrow in his clothes to stab in the last moment when he was close. But that still wasn't enough for Arthur to believe.
He remembered more incidents too though. It was after he had become a Noble. There were many times when he had a feeling that he was being watched by someone when no one was there.
In one of those times, he remembered feeling like he was being watched by someone. Right after that, a vase had fallen behind him, but when he turned, there was no one there.
Moreover, the falling of the vase should have been impossible since no wind was flowing inside the room either. Furthermore, the Vase was heavy too. It couldn't have fallen on its own.
As the vase fell, it made Arthur even more suspicious. He searched the entire place, but he couldn't find anyone there either.
"How can I believe that you're telling the truth?" he asked Lucifer.
"I'm not here to prove anything. You can trust me if you want. Don't trust me if you don't want to. I just told you what I thought. In any case, you're a Noble. It's not like I can use you to support me," Lucifer responded.
He lazily stood up, stretching his arms.
"Your loyalty to Milena is unbreakable after all. It's not like I'm going to get anything from you by telling you. So believe what you want to. Just don't forget, I also know about your Teleportation. So I have an idea what I'm talking about," he further said as he started going to the stairs.
"Where are you going? Our conversation isn't over." Arthur stood up, watching Lucifer leave.
"What's more to talk about? I already got answers to my questions, and you got answers to yours. I believe we're done," Lucifer responded without looking back.
His finger touched the railings of the staircase as he climbed the first stair.
"We'll be done when I tell you. I have more to talk about." Arthur frowned.
"Like what?" Lucifer asked, glancing back.
"Like the stones!"
"What about the stones?"
"I want to know what they are. Why do you people want them so badly? What's so special about them? What mystery do they hold?" Arthur asked.
"And you think I'll tell you that?" A glimpse of a smirk appeared on Lucifer's face.
"And why won't you? Unless that stone really is something special? If you tell me something about that stone, I'll also tell you something that might save your life in the future," Arthur expressed.
"Save my life, huh." Lucifer muttered, shaking his head. "I refuse."
"Saving his life? That's the worst pitch someone can offer him." A voice fell in Arthur's ears, spoken by Salazar.
'The dude is undying. Can he really care about something that can save his life?' Salazar thought.
"Fine. I'll tell you about the second stone then." Arthur let out.
"Second stone? What do you mean?" Lucifer asked, surprised.
He was sure that he wouldn't be talking about the stone which was with the Warlock Council. Then which stone was he talking about?"
"Do you know about another stone like this? Is there a second one on this continent?" he asked.
"Yes. It was discovered at the bottom of the sea. But it's not with Her Majesty or with me. And only I know where that stone is. If you tell me what's special about the stones, I'll also tell you about one such stone."
"How can I be sure it's the real thing?" Lucifer asked, wondering if he was really talking about the same stones and not some ordinary ones.
