One True God

Chapter 149: Line

When Lucifer disappeared from the place where Oumu was located, Oumu straightened his body.

He knew, even without Lucifer affirming his answer or anything of the sort, that he should do his best to do his task.

Naturally, so that he would be able to do his task without any problem, Oumu would have to talk with the...Nocturnal Phantom to sort things out between the two of them.

And it seems that Oumu was not the only one who had this kind of thought as Oumu's shadow...slowly but surely moved away from him, and a dark fog rose from the ground right in front of Oumu.

Of course, this dark fog was Nocturnal Phantom.

And as soon as Nocturnal Phantom formed his body all the way up, he spoke immediately.

"You said that you will do your best...so I will also do my best in order to confirm if you are really doing your best, got that?" The Nocturnal Phantom said those words.

Of course, this is to make sure that Oumu knows that he would not let even a single slip up.

There's no way that Nocturnal Phantom would take this case easy or anything of the sort.

What's more, Lucifer is the one who ordered this whole thing.

That's more reason for Nocturnal Phantom to take this seriously.

Of course, Oumu knew that Nocturnal Phantom meant business.

And he was glad to know that Nocturnal Phantom meant business.

Why? It was because Oumu also meant business. He was going to take this whole thing seriously.

"That's right. And I will also make sure that you would do your best while observing me doing my best." Oumu said those words as he looked at the Nocturnal Phantom, seemingly unafraid of the power difference between the two of them.

Well, there's really no reason for Oumu to become afraid of the Nocturnal Phantom now that they are in this situation where not one of them can do anything to another.

It's kind of funny, seeing how they were so hostile against each other before.

What's more, they both knew that Lucifer would only get mad if they were to fight against each other.

That was why...to make sure that this would not escalate anymore, Oumu began to walk.

Of course, he did not walk without a destination in mind. His destination was to go to where Rouge and Raya Pazier were located.

After all, they were also involved in this mission given by Lucifer, and it would be best if they were to know about it.

Though, they already knew about it since Lucifer told them before he even told Oumu.

However, even though Oumu planned to leave just like that, he soon found out that, after taking a few steps away, that he could no longer move.

It was weird, but Oumu was able to find out the reason why he could not move.

Well, after all, it was simple. The reason is simple why, and it is because of the Nocturnal Phantom.

"Why are you keeping me in here? We have to go now and explain to the other two about what's going on so that they don't get left out in the dark." Oumu said while looking in front of him, without turning back.

Well, that's because he could not move his body to look back at the Nocturnal Phantom.

Anyway, when he said those words, the Nocturnal Phantom...slowly turned around and walked towards Oumu.

His presence was slowly getting stronger, and chills were starting to get into Oumu's skin.

It was easy to explain why this is happening. It is all because of Nocturnal Phantom and his power.

He was purposely doing this so that he can try and intimidate Oumu without causing any real harm to him.

Anyway, when the Nocturnal Phantom finally reached Oumu, he spoke a few words.

"I...am watching by your side." The Nocturnal Phantom said those words, and his voice rang out in the darkness.

It was as if the darkness itself said those words, and it echoed in and out in Oumu's ears for a very long time.

No...it only felt as if it was a very long time for Oumu since the Nocturnal Phantom also influenced him that way.

And while he was under the influence of the Nocturnal Phantom's power, the Nocturnal Phantom took this time to return back to Oumu's shadow.

Of course, this does not mean that the Nocturnal Phantom would be asleep now or won't be doing anything of the sort.

He would be watching every single step of Oumu from his shadow...

Anyway, when the Nocturnal Phantom went back inside Oumu's shadow, the echoing in Oumu's ears finally stopped and he was able to come back to his senses.

He was also able to immediately realize that he was now able to move. Well, it was no surprise that he would be able to move now that Nocturnal Phantom took back the power that was stopping Oumu from moving.

Of course, Oumu was shocked that Nocturnal Phantom would do something like this.

He thought that Nocturnal Phantom would just sit still and just watch him from the side since that's what Lucifer really ordered him to do.

But it seems that it was not only Oumu who was hyped to do his duty for this mission.

Of course, as someone who is excited about this whole thing, Oumu understands the Nocturnal Phantom very well.

"Alright. You can just watch...since that's all you're going to have to do." Oumu said those words as he started to walk back towards the place where Rouge and Raya Pazier were located at.

And what he said was...a little bit of taunt for the Nocturnal Phantom.

For him to say that the Nocturnal Phantom would only be able to watch means that he is not even needed in this place and situation.

Well, what he said is not really that unreasonable or anything of the sort.

If Oumu, Rouge, and Raya Pazier were able to come up with a clever plan to make the whole Warmester Denoble House under wraps about the whole thing while Lucifer is away, then Nocturnal Phantom would not even be able to have his chance to show off.

Of course, that situation is based...on the theory that Oumu, Rouge, and Raya Pazier would be able to come up with a clever plan that would be able to keep the Warmester Denoble House under wraps of what's actually happening.

And well, the future...is still not certain at this point.

"Hmmm...I rushed out of there, but in reality, I do not know where the Luciferian Empire is." A voice resounded out in the air, but there is no one in the air.

Well, this is only natural. It is because the one who said those words were actually using the sky to hide.

He was using the power of the sky...to make it look like he's not there when he's actually there.

Of course, the one who is doing something like that is Lucifer.

He is literally right above the Warm City right now. He is pretty high in the sky, and he was looking all around to search for clues for the Luciferian Empire.

Even though Lucifer was able to get information on where the Luciferian Empire is when he first came out of his room, that does not really mean that...Lucifer remembers it.

Right, Lucifer forgot about it. He thought that it would still take him a long amount of time before he would be able to go back to the Luciferian Empire.

And that's only natural. If one considers the name of the Luciferian Empire, it is all about Lucifer.

They are the ones who know the most when it comes to Lucifer, and that is why Lucifer did not want to go there unless he is back in full health.

To prevent the people from knowing that he is still alive, naturally.

And so, Lucifer thought that he would just have a subordinate or a servant look into the whereabouts of this Luciferian Empire and go there when it is time to go.

That was how things were supposed to go, but Lucifer did not expect that he would go this soon.

He did not even start going to the academy yet or anything of the sort, but here he is...looking for the directions of the Luciferian Empire.

It seems that not even Lucifer can control fate.

"If I don't know something, then I should just ask someone."

"That's a line from a book."

"Maybe I will practice that to get to the Luciferian Empire."

Lucifer said those words as he looked down on the right side of the Warm City.

Of course, even though it was on the right side, it was definitely not near to the Warm City.

He is so high up in the air that he cannot even see the Warm City in his vision.

But what he can see in his vision right now...was a carriage being pulled by demon horses.

"Right...I should just go ask if I don't know something." Lucifer murmured to himself as he slowly drifted in the air towards the carriage...
