Chapter 644 - 644: Hostage

"Ah, coming to the battlefield despite not having much battle prowess?" Vega asked. "I didn\'t walk alone. I had others with me. I made sure to keep myself safe."

"Yeah. I know you had other people keeping you safe, like Salazar. But that\'s not what I\'m talking about." Lucifer frowned.

"Try again. Tell me what you did wrong?" he asked again.

No matter how much Vega thought, he couldn\'t think of anything. He had followed all the commands on the battlefield and didn\'t do anything wrong.

"I-i can\'t think of anything," He responded.

"Alright. Let me phrase the question in a different way." Lucifer smiled. "So, how did it feel to have a person keep you safe who you tried to kill?"

Finally, Vega felt like he understood what it was about.

\'How did he find out? Nope! He\'s bluffing! He must be suspicious, and he\'s testing it!\'

Vega understood what was happening, but he kept his expressions calm. He didn\'t want his expressions to be his confession. He was sure that there was no way Lucifer could know.

"What do you mean? I don\'t understand." He acted ignorantly.

"I can understand." Lucifer calmly nodded. "If I tried to blow up a plane, I might also try to forget about it."

Salazar didn\'t act surprised. He had already known about it. In fact, he was wondering when Lucifer was going to address the situation.

"I-i think there might be a misunderstanding."

"A misunderstanding?" Lucifer asked. "The only misunderstanding was with me when I trusted you, people!"

The smile that was on his face abruptly disappeared as he raised his hand.

A powerful pressure of the wind pushed Vega closer to Lucifer. The wind made Vega fall to his knees before Lucifer.

"You know Vega; I actually wanted to trust you," Lucifer calmly said. "And honestly, you were pretty clever. Telling the leadership to blow up my plane while giving a fake name. Then blaming the attack on resistance."

"As for the articles about the resistance taking responsibility for the attacks just after the explosion? That was like the cherry on top. No wonder you\'re called a master planner." He sighed, placing his hand over the head of Vega.

Vega\'s heartbeat was thumping fast. He could see death right before his eyes! He still didn\'t understand how Lucifer managed to find him! Not only had he given a fake name, but he had crafted a perfect story!

He was still suspicious that Lucifer was bluffing to have him confess since he didn\'t actually know. Vega decided to stick with the story.

"I didn\'t do anything! Someone must be framing me!"

"Is that so? So the leader of the nation accepting that he had attacked my plane on the commands of someone from outside was a lie? It was also a lie that he had received multiple messages to do it with my exact coordinates?"

"Now, please tell me. Who could be so talented at arranging everything? Moreover, I already asked someone to investigate the origins of the message. And guess what. It came from your computer."

"Now only two people can use your computer. First is you, and the other was with his family when the message was sent. And there\'s footage to prove that. I mean, I can find you a hundred such proofs about it being you."

"But I\'m not here to prove anything. I\'m here to ask you why you did it."

"Fine! I did it!" Under the immense pressure, Vega finally caved in and accepted. Lucifer wasn\'t guessing. He actually knew!

"We already know. Tell me why instead. Even though I have a general idea why," Lucifer folded his arms, waiting for a response.

"I didn\'t trust this guy! I had a feeling that he was going to be our downfall! And Predictor\'s prediction about him killing Kellian? I felt he was someone we couldn\'t trust, especially not enough to take him on such an important mission!"

"But you trusted him and didn\'t listen to us! I had no choice but to plan something else!" Vega said.

"So you decide to have a missile launched at our plane." Lucifer rolled his eyes.

"I knew you had your healing. So you were at no risk. And that was certain to have killed Salazar! At least that\'s what I thought. But he survived."

"And Tristan? You knew I was going to survive, but what about Tristan? Was he also going to survive?"

"He was going to be the collateral damage to keep the Uprising safe from Salazar." Vega lowered his head. "I also had conflicted thoughts about it, but in the end, I did it for the greater good."

"Greater good, huh." Lucifer looked deep into the eyes of Vega.

"What I\'m about to do will be for the greater good as well," Lucifer nodded as a devilish smile formed on his lips.

"N-no! I just wanted what\'s best for you! Don\'t!" Vega roared, seeing Lucifer take off his gloves. He even tried to move back, but the constant pressure of the wind kept him in place.

"I\'m also doing what\'s good for you. Don\'t worry. I\'m just sending you on a long sleep, away from this cruel world. You\'ll find it to be a nice place. I\'ve been there a few times. It\'s not that bad," Lucifer said as he placed his bare hand on the cheeks of Vega.

"Argh~"

A powerful scream filled the entire floor, only stopping when Vega turned to dust.

A gentle wind took the dust away with it, cleaning the room.

"You see, I don\'t like someone betraying my trust. It doesn\'t matter if the person is a friend or a foe. So please don\'t ever do that. Or you know what might happen." Lucifer said, not intentionally looking at anyone.

The only reason he brought Arthur and Milena here for this meeting was especially for that. He wanted them to know what happened to the people who betrayed him.

"I hope you all understand?\' He asked.

No one responded, but everyone noticed how brutally the person was killed. And Milena also knew that Lucifer was too strong at the moment.

She took a deep breath. "Don\'t worry. We don\'t have any reason to betray you. You already rule most of the world now. I don\'t think you\'ll need to mess with our small Divine Empire. So we don\'t have a reason to go against you."

"I agree to have the Divine Empire under your control in general. But I do want one thing from you. Can I ask?" Milena asked.

"What do you want?" Lucifer asked.

"I want you to remove this bracelet. I\'ve already surrendered now. I don\'t want to feel like a hostage anymore.." Milena declared.
