One True God

Chapter 39: Law

Lucifer and Asgo were currently walking down the hallway towards the exam site.

They didn't talk about anything, and it was because of that, the place was silent.

No, their footsteps were resounding out in this place, but that didn't really matter.

Anyway, the hallway was long and dark. It didn't have any lights on or any kind of fires hanging by the walls.

Of course, the two of the demons currently walking didn't have any problems seeing through the dark.

However, it was really weird to see that there were no lights or fires considering that this place was the site of the exam.

What's more, the princess herself attended this place. It was only natural that the place should be more beautiful and worthy of the princess' presence.

Of course, Lucifer knew that which is why he was suspicious of this place and the hallway itself.

After all, there's just no way the people in charge of the exam would just leave this place alone.

That was why he spoke to ask a question to the demon right behind him.

Of course, he asked without even looking back, and he just continued walking.

"Asgo. Why is this place dirty?"

"This is supposed to be the exam site of all the academies present in this kingdom."

"The princess of the kingdom is also taking part in the exam."

"I find it hard to believe that a part of this place would be so unclean and filthy."

Although Lucifer said that it was unclean and filthy, it was actually not.

It was plenty clean, and one could probably live in here with it being the same as it is now.

However, it is certainly unclean and filthy if one is from royalty.

And the princess is royalty. If the princess were to see something like this, it was only natural that she would find this place unclean and filthy.

The reason why Lucifer was able to spot that is because he himself is royalty.

No, he is more than royalty as he was god himself, but well. He could still be counted in that category.

Anyways, when Asgo heard what Lucifer said, he quickly spoke to answer Lucifer's question.

Although it seems that Asgo...was fine now, he was not. He was still feeling the fear, and that was why he wanted to prove something.

Asgo didn't know what he wanted to prove, but he knew that he could prove it by answering quickly with precise answers.

It was weird if one thinks about how Asgo didn't know what he wanted to prove, but he still did it.

Anyways, this is what Asgo said.

"Lucis...there is a reason why this place is dirty."

"Although it is correct that this place should be cleaned because of the princess' presence in this place, it didn't really matter for the ones in charge."

"The princess was expected that she would pass the Demonic Origin test, and she would go to the Royal Academy's test right away."

"The test that we had just before was just a formality for her."

"And it is because of that, this place is not cleaned."

"After all, the princess doesn't need to pass through here."

"Because this hallway...this place is connected to the First Academy's exam."

Asgo said all those words without missing a single beat. It seems that he was really informed about this exam.

Of course, the fact that Asgo knows these things was really advantageous for Lucifer.

After all, Lucifer would basically have the same knowledge that Asgo has.

In other words, Lucifer wouldn't have to walk with a blindfold on his eyes anymore as he proceeded with this test.

'Really, I should have done this earlier.' Lucifer thought as the plicated smile crept up to his face once more.

After all, if Lucifer had done and decided these things before he started to take the exam, his life would have been much easier.

Hell, he could possibly not even have talked with that boisterous princess, and be able to just go on with his life.

And since things have already happened, there was no regretting it now.

It's not like Lucifer was a Hell God who could control time. Although Lucifer was truly a powerful demon, even he could not take time away.

Anyways, Lucifer was already able to understand why this place was not cleaned up or something like that.

It was basically because the ones in charge of the exam were sure that the princess wouldn't even see this place.

They were sure that the princess wouldn't take the First Academy's exam.

It was reasonable and it was something Lucifer would do as well if he was in their position.

After all, it would save one time, and the ones in charge didn't have to pay any attention to the First Academy's exam or examinees.

Anyway, it was then that the two of them finally stopped walking.

It seems that they have already reached their destination as there was a big door right in front of them.

The door could be easily seen in this darkness as the door...was basically shining in the light.

Well, that was because of the light inside the door.

Anyway, when they stopped, Lucifer spoke as he turned his head sideways.

It was only by a little bit, and Asgo could only see half of Lucifer's face.

"You remember what I told you, right."

"You're my slave. My subordinate."

"However, I want you to act normal around me."

"Break this law and I would kill you right away."

Lucifer's voice was so low and cold when he said those words. After all, Lucifer intended to threaten Asgo with that.

And it seems that it was working as Asgo quickly looked down on the ground as his body started quivering in fear.

And it was with that kind of shaking that Asgo spoke to answer Lucifer.

"Y-yes...Lucis."

And when Lucifer heard that, he quickly turned his head towards the door.

He then began to walk towards the door and opened it.

And it was then that the examination truly began. Or has it...
