"In those five years, every single mont was the happiest mont of my life. Just being with them, spending ti with them, getting their love and their affection, every mont is precious to ," Lucifer answered. "Sothing I can never forget either."
"So if I were to tell you the happiest mont of my life, that mont is my first five years," he further said.
"Ah, you really had to throw a curveball in the end, didn’t you?" Caen asked as he smiled wryly.
"Though I must say, your answer is better. My one mont against your five years. I think you won," he said as he sighed.
"So, what do you want from ?" He asked. "What do you want to do? Even though you didn’t need this ga since I would’ve done most of the things you asked anyways, but still tell."
"What do I want you to do? I’ll tell you when it’s ti to go back," Lucifer replied without disclosing much information.
"Alright. I owe you one then. Anyway, I’ll be right back. I should check up with the headquarters to know how the plan is going," Caen said as he stood up.
"What plan?" Lucifer inquired, wondering what plan it was now.
"Oh, it’s sothing which will bring your truth out. The people that think you’re a killer will know why you did what you did. Think of it as us putting our side of the story before the world. I’ll tell you more after I co back," Caen answered before he left, advancing towards the helicopter.
The device through which he could contact the base was inside the helicopter.
...
As Caen left, Lucifer kept sitting near the sea, looking at the sunset.
"This really is a beautiful sunset. This place is pretty," he muttered as he saw the sun that seed to be drowning in the sea.
The red sun and the clouds that were in the sky. All of it made it a fascinating sighed.
Moreover, a rainbow-like thing could also be seen in the sky for so reason.
"You were right. This place is really beautiful. I saw it just the way you wanted, but it’s still incomplete, isn’t it?"
" I wish you two were here with as well."
As Lucifer sat alone, watching the sunset, he was starting to feel depressed.
He started talking to himself as sadness seed to have overwheld him once again. He started missing his parents.
Caen’s company was keeping him busy, but now that Caen wasn’t here, all those sad thoughts had started housing his head again.
"If you were here, this world would have been such a better place. It wouldn’t be so dark, right?"
"I really miss you. Can you hear ?" he repeated, firmly.
"If only you hadn’t placed your life in danger for humanity, you would still be alive. If only you were a little selfish, nothing like this would have happened. The selfish people are all alive, but you’re dead. Why is it?"
The more Lucifer talked, the more upset he got, until the end where he was clenching his fist.
" The people who should have treated you as a gift to humanity, did this to your son. Would you be angry if you were here? Would you have punished them? Would you have kept safe? You would, right?"
He kept gazing at the Sunset as he kept repeating. It seed like he was talking to the sunset instead.
The sun was going down, taking the light along with it. It appeared to be similar to his parents, who died, taking all the light of his world with them.
"Wait... gift... gift... That’s right! I rember! I rember everything! So that’s what my father was going to say in that dream! That’s what he had said at that ti! Sothing about my gift," he suddenly exclaid as he started focusing more on his head to rember the exact words of his father.
Soon, he rembered everything as the whole dream beca clear, and his mories returned.
...
"I’m so sorry, Lucifer. But mamma and papa need to leave. We will be back pretty soon. You can stay without us, right? My baby is a big boy now, right?"
"Of course he is. He is my son after all," the man laughed as he also approached. "I’m sorry, son, but the world needs us. We won’t be gone for long. And when we co, we’re going to make it up to you."
"How will you?"
"How about we take a vacation after that? Lucifer hasn’t seen Orion Beach, right? Even though it’s a bit far, it’s a beautiful place: the sunset, the wind, the water. Everything is just heavenly. My father used to take there. I think we should go on a vacation there. It would be the best vacation."
"Orion beach, huh? You’re right. That place is pretty. I was also thinking about taking Lucifer there. We haven’t taken many vacations anyways."
Lucifer’s mother picked up a cup of soup and started feeding the kid.
While his father opened his lips to speak sothing.
"And there we can also give him his gift. That belongs to him, after all. We buried that on Orion Beach, right? I think it’s ti we take it out and give that to Lucifer. He is already five years old. It should be ti we start that."
...
’Gift! So that’s what he was talking about! My gift! What gift did he leave behind? I need to find that. The last inheritance of my parents! Sothing they left for ! Their last mory!’ Lucifer thought as he decided to search the beach.
’Wait, Caen is here. Would it be right to search before him? I need to see what it is first. I will wait for him to sleep and then search.’
As Lucifer rembered everything, he modified his plan, which now consisted of two things. The first was to find the thing that his parents left behind for him without letting Caen know. And second, was to find Veracity after that.
As he finished with his plan, he heard the footsteps behind him.
’He is back. I should act normal,’ Lucifer thought as he heard the sound of footsteps.
"Caen, you’re back," he said as he turned back, only to have his mouth opened in surprise.
It wasn’t Caen who was standing only one step away from him. Instead, it was a dark-haired man who seed to be dressed in a coat and pants as if he was so businessman.
Lucifer raised his hand to attack the man. This awful closeness was sothing he didn’t appreciate. And to see a stranger near him that shouldn’t be here, this was dangerous.
He didn’t think twice to ask any questions as he decided to attack with his lightning.
Unfortunately, he had only started raising his hands to attack when the man smirked as he grabbed him by his throat.
"Curious about ? The world knows as Warlock King Varant," the man told Lucifer.
