A holographic image of earth appeared before Lucifer. Lucifer circles the holographic image.

"I don\'t know where they must be. I can go to the Uprising base in Elisium, but Milena might not be there. I believe they should be in Triton. There\'s no way they would lose the Warlock Council base."

Lucifer selected a spot in the capital of Zeston. "Send us there."

A portal big enough for two humans to enter opened in the middle of the ship. "The portal is ready. You can go. After fifty minutes, I\'ll open another portal to bring the Captain back," the woman said, glancing at the portal.

Joana gestured for Lucifer to step inside first, letting him take the lead.

Lucifer didn\'t oppose the offer either. After getting to this place, he was sure that he wasn\'t going to be betrayed now, at least for a small thing like that.

"Keep an eye on the ship in my absence. And keep the ship ready for departure. I\'m already stretching our time thin. We need to get going as soon as I return," Joana told the red-haired woman before he also stepped inside the portal.

...

A portal opened in the middle of the city. Lucifer stepped out of the portal, stretching his arms. "It feels like I\'m stepping foot here after a decade."

Joana came out behind Lucifer. "A city on earth... You have some intriguing structures. But why is this place so dense?"

"For that, I\'ll have to go into details about our geography, and we don\'t have time for that. Come with me."

Lucifer walked through the street, attracting many strange gazes from the people. The gazes weren\'t of fear though. It appeared as if people were more surprised to see him back and less scared.

The city also seemed different. There was just something about the mood of the city, which felt different.

"Something feels strange."

"What?" Joana asked. "You look to be pretty popular here. Everyone is looking at you."

"That\'s what\'s strange. Normally, these people would\'ve kept their gazes down. But it\'s different now," Lucifer explained, frowning.

"Something is really od-"

Joana listened to Lucifer carefully, only to find Lucifer stop in the middle.

"What happened?" he asked. He focused on the gaze of Lucifer and looked in the direction where he was looking.

They were standing near the crossroads of the city. In the middle of the road, there were four long spikes standing tall.

The bottom of the spikes was buried in the concrete floor which supported them.

"This is... You know them?" Joana asked, turning back to Lucifer again. "Seeing your expressions, it seems that you do. Your friends?"

Lucifer didn\'t reply. He just blankly walked towards the spikes. There were four spikes, and one body was hanging on each of the spikes.

The spikes came through the chest of the bodies, penetrating their hearts.

"Dallas..." Lucifer stopped before the first spike. A man\'s lifeless body remained on top of the spike. "I was wrong. The war seems to be over already... We lost."

He grabbed the spike, crushing it between his fist. Without the support, the spike came crashing down.

Lucifer held the body of Dallas and pulled him out of the body.

He gently placed the body on the ground. "I was too late, wasn\'t I?"

Leaving the body back, he moved to the second spike. He brought the second body down as well and placed it near the body of Dallas.

The second body belonged to a beautiful lady. Her eyes weren\'t even close even though she had died. Her lifeless red pupils stayed open as if watching the vast sky above.

Lucifer placed the body of Jiani down and moved to the third spike.

The third spike had the body of a young-looking man. Seeing the body, Lucifer felt really bad. Even though the body belonged to the person who wasn\'t a part of his team Uprising, he had helped him a lot.

Lucifer remembered all the times he had spent with Arthur. Arthur was one of the smartest people amongst the Nobles that he knew.

Despite being in the Nobles, he always supported Lucifer and helped whenever needed. He was the person who always thought of the biggest picture and kept the team before his immediate needs.

Lucifer placed the third body on the ground. "Why did you have to die? With your teleportation, you could\'ve easily run away. Yet, you stayed behind and fought. Idiot..."

Lucifer closed the eyes of Arthur and moved to the fourth and last spike. The fourth spike made him feel even worse.

The person on the fourth spike was wearing the same attire that he wore before leaving. However, his face was different.

"Caen..." Lucifer muttered as he carefully brought the body of Caen down.

"After so long, I see your real face, but it\'s after you\'re gone. I\'m sorry for not being here."

Seeing the attire of Caen, Lucifer was sure that Caen was impersonating him to help the team before he was killed. After dying, his abilities stopped, making him reveal a face that he had never revealed before.

Lucifer had assumed thousands of faces for Caen, but he had never asked the guy to reveal his real face.

He thought that one day Caen would show his real face himself. He never expected that this was going to be like this.

Caen had a small yet slender face in reality. Moreover, he wasn\'t even a guy in reality. Seeing him now, Lucifer realized it. She was a girl who looked to be in her mid-twenties.

She had thin lips, a small nose, and beautiful blue eyes. However, there was a big scar on the girl\'s face that went from the left side of her forehead to her right cheek. The deep scar seemed like it could never heal.

For a moment, Lucifer even wondered if this scar was the reason Caen never showed her real face. She felt uncomfortable showing others her scar? It was too late to ask her now.

Lucifer couldn\'t even ask her how she got that scar, but what he knew was how she died. He stood up and looked towards the Warlock Council headquarters in the distance.

"It seems like you really cared for them. Sometimes War can be really bad for both sides." Joana stepped closer to Lucifer. He placed a hand on Lucifer\'s shoulder to support him.

"You can\'t always win; sometimes you lose people as well. I hope you don\'t let it affect you."

"I won\'t let it affect me... But I will make sure it affects who did it," Lucifer declared.
