Lucivar didn't know what happened.
He was struggling to endure—the leader's ability, but then, the leader was suddenly pushed away hard. It wasn't him but recalling the monts before it happened, Lucivar smirked, 'He touched my Supernatural Ego, didn't he?'
In that split second, he felt a familiar energy rattled inside of him suddenly.
Of course, the arrogance in that energy showed that it was definitely Sutekh's doing.
Considering that there were five Gods inside of his Supernatural Ego with one of them being Sutekh, it beca clear that the leader was pushed—because he was offensive. Sutekh was even mad when Lucivar used his real na much less a mortal trying to touch his abode.
Realizing that—Lucivar quickly used this mont to check on the little boy.
He was still clasping onto the Angel Hybrid's corpse, the old man's persuasion didn't work.
But Lucivar knew the reason.
Crouching down, Lucivar karate-chopped the little boy's nape, knocking him out cold.
"How could you do that? You might've hurt him!" the old man complained.
Upon hearing this, Lucivar pulled the little boy's shirt, and showed the nasty bruise below the little boy's nipple, right on his ribs, "He has no ti. He might not feel it now—but that wound might be lethal if he wasn't treated as quickly as possible"
Just earlier, Lucivar noticed that a kick from the Dark Angel landed too cleanly.
And the boy flinched but kept crying.
Even though he seed to be fine, Lucivar knew that the kick broke sothing.
"Go and take him away, I'm done here" Lucivar continued and fled the scene.
He headed back to Maura—who was watching what he was doing with a disapproving look, the act he did was too risky. Had the leader been in a worse mood, he would've done worse things to Lucivar.
Even if Lucivar died in the process, the leader would only be reprimanded and that was it.
Looking at Lucivar fleeing the scene, the Dark Angels wanted to pursue him.
But the leader stopped them with his hands.
"Grab that Angel Hybrid, our work here is done"
"But leader, that guy is out of the line. He even attacked you!"
"Are you objecting to a direct order?"
"N- No..."
Casting one final glance in the direction where Lucivar had gone the leader scoffed before turning to leave. Behind him, the two Dark Angels hurried to follow, carrying the corpse. As they exited the premises, the crowd dispersed.
Other than the old man and another who were helping the poor family, the others left.
All of them didn't care and let the security deal with the poor family.
Despite the severity of the scene earlier, it beca nothing more than a story to tell for most.
Lucivar headed back to the restaurant, there were a lot of things on his mind.
Not only did he learn that he had the attention of Thalia's family but he also now knew vividly the reason the Angel Hybrids were hunted and there was a special force dedicated to finding and exterminating Angel Hybrids.
And the leader of that special force squad has a unique ability that would affect only Angels.
"You can stop following now or are you planning to let Thalia spot you?"
Lucivar glanced at Maura behind him, she had been following him in silence.
Not to ntion, he could feel her gaze burning his back.
It seed she had sothing to say but didn't know whether she should say it or not.
"Oh, right..." Maura stopped, pulling her hood and wearing her face mask.
But as she did that, she frowned when he saw Lucivar—as opposed to going straight to the restaurant, made a turn to the corridor leading to the toilet. He seed to be in a hurry, but Maura ignored him and went to a nearby cafe again.
On the other hand, Lucivar entered the toilet.
He was relieved when there was nobody inside and the toilet only had one stall.
Unable to hold it back, he went to the sink and vomited blood.
Lucivar did not only vomit a mouthful—but he retched a stream of blood, enough to coat the entire sink in crimson. It was a grueso sight, almost as if he were purging his very insides, the leader's ability was not light, it was extrely rough.
He turned on the faucet, letting the water wash away the blood before splashing his face.
Gazing at his reflection in the mirror, Lucivar remained silent for a mont.
Soon, two entities appeared.
Gandr slithered from below to his shoulder while Sha appeared on the sink counter.
"Being a hero now? I thought you already passed this" Sha ridiculed, but she seed angry.
Lucivar glanced at her before returning his gaze ahead.
"I wanted to save the boy and if I want sothing, I will get it"
"Hmph! It's a naive desire, your move earlier was too risky, you could've been caught!"
Being reprimanded like this annoyed Lucivar, he would do what he wanted to do and nobody could stop him. Or at least, that was what he wanted to achieve—but right now, he could not afford to anger Sha and Sutekh.
Even then, he knew how to get out of this.
"So you want , the Blessed Oracle who has the power of Sutekh to cower in fear only from a mortal? Stopping to do what he wanted to do because of a mortal?" He lifted an eyebrow—taunting Sha to answer those questions.
Upon hearing this, Sha clicked her tongue and turned her gaze elsewhere in annoyance.
She has no answer to that.
Although she knew Lucivar was turning her arrogance against her, it worked flawlessly—and that made her even more annoyed. Just then, Gandr intervened, "Slowing down your growth would kill you, it's only a matter of ti before your identity as an Angel Hybrid is exposed"
"I know..." Lucivar replied, clutching the edge of the counter.
He was lucky that Tobias and the others were accepting of what he truly was.
But he couldn't expect to be lucky all the ti, he would definitely be exposed.
Even Thalia—he didn't know how she would react if she knew that he was an Angel Hybrid.
"Pick your opponents wisely," Gandr hissed, his reptilian eyes flickered with a green light. "As of this mont, that avatar of Sunna is your opponent. All you need to do is focus on getting stronger and stronger, no need to pull more attention"
Lucivar frowned, he could feel his blood was boiling.
He inherited the hatred of Loki's past avatars.
And even the sheer ntion of Sunna's avatar made him breathe like a bull.
"Or have you forgotten what goodness would bring to you?" Gandr added aningfully.
Lucivar clicked his tongue in displeasure, "Of course, not. I will never forget that"
"Good, let it burn in your mind. Secure your situation and focus on killing him, power lies only to those who would go as far as they need to achieve it. And only power has the ability to fix karma as you wanted" Gandr whispered.
Sha also added, "We have great expectations for you, Blessed Oracle..."
Once they said that, both he and Sha exchanged a look before they vanished.
Now, Lucivar was the only one inside the toilet again.
Splashing water on his face once again, Lucivar headed out with hurried steps.
He returned to the restaurant within a minute and found Thalia there, an unmistakable aura of irritation hanging around her. Her lips were pressed, into a tight line, and her face was as bitter as it was sharp.
After waiting nearly twenty minutes, it was no wonder her patience had worn thin.
Lucivar went into the restaurant and headed to her table.
Seeing him approaching, she tapped her chopsticks on her plate angrily.
"I got a stomachache, sorry about that" Lucivar apologized and took a seat in front of her.
As soon as he said that, Thalia slamd the tip of her chopsticks—against her plate, harder, drawing attention to their table. Lucivar gave an apologetic look at the people around before he turned at Thalia again.
"Co on, it's not that long, you're overreacting" Lucivar added.
Instead of answering, Thalia eyed the seat beside her, becoming angrier with each glance.
Realizing what she wanted, Lucivar stood up and sat beside her.
Now that he sat beside her, she was evidently pleased.
But even then, she was still grumpy.
"Did you really go to the toilet—or did you et up with that bitch again?" She asked.
Lucivar looked at her in disbelief, he was at a loss for words.
"How did you get to that conclusion?"
"I an, you kept glancing back hoping to spot her earlier. I know she's a Vampire Hybrid and all of them are pretty—but she's not, that pretty. I think Leandra is prettier than her, don't you think so?"
Upon hearing this, Lucivar sealed his lips, 'It's a trap question...'
Just from Thalia's gaze alone, as if she were a tiger waiting for her prey to make the wrong move—he could tell that this was a trap question, 'I glanced back earlier because of Maura though, but I couldn't say that, can I? I better say what she wanted to hear'
"Don't know about Leandra but you're definitely prettier" Lucivar replied.
He went back to focusing on the nu but he felt that Thalia's face reddened from that.
Lucivar was not dense enough to not realize that Thalia was interested in him.
Her rivalry with Leandra shows that clearly.
"I'm pretty, hehe~" Thalia smiled, the words repeated in her brain multiple tis.
But then, Lucivar suddenly continued, "Oh—by the way, instead of only you, can I et your Mother to discuss the South Hues Tournant Sponsor? It'll be better to talk with her about that with there so she could judge herself"
Not expecting this, Thalia was stunned.
"et my Mother...?" She repeated, shock etched across her face.
Lucivar nodded firmly.
As opposed to relying on Maura to deliver the ssage—he reckoned that since he knew Thalia, she could arrange a eting quicker than Maura would be able to. Not to ntion, Thalia could beg Callista if she refused.
On the other hand, Thalia was completely thinking of a different thing.
'eting mom? If Lucivar really t mom then I wouldn't need to be discreet about this,' She thought—smiling inwardly out of excitent. 'Elira wouldn't be able to force to stay away from him and more importantly—I can rub this on Leandra. Telling to take him around the city is a wrong move, girl...'
Just like that, Thalia called her mother.
She asked if Callista had ti to et with Lucivar and surprisingly, she had.
More than that, Callista seed to be eager to et with Lucivar.
Because of that, they would et tonight so Lucivar and Thalia ate quickly and left the mall.
Along the way to the exit, Thalia recalled sothing.
"Did you hear the gunshot from before? You ca from that direction, did you see anything?"
"Oh, an Angel Hybrid was captured earlier, nothing too important"
"Angel Hybrids, huh... there are still so remaining in the city surprisingly"
"Seed like you don't like the Angel Hybrids"
"Angel Hybrids killed my uncle and also two of my aunts. I'm past disliking them, I hate them. My family practically hates them so don't talk about that in front of my mom"
