Ayn, Dion, and even Isona were surprised to know about the eyes of Lucifer. They had never expected to see something like this.
They were with Lucifer for so long but they never saw something like this. Now that they were saying with their own eyes, they were finding it hard to believe.
"After the Great War, this is the first time we have seen those eyes. Interesting," Dion muttered as he forgot about the battle he was going through. What appeared before him was more interesting.
Lucifer's eyes were finally back to their true form. It seemed like he kept it hidden. That's what he thought, atleast.
The ones who knew about the last great war and these eyes were stunned as for the ones that didn't know, they just stood confused, wondering why everyone was so shocked.
What was so special about these eyes? There were many people that had different colored eyes. What was special about Lucifer's eyes?
...
While the battlefield near the facility was going through a shocking revelation, the city of Elantra was also getting destroyed as the strongest Variants of this country were battling to gain the higher ground.
Varant reached the building on top of which Raia was standing tall, looking down at Varant.
The two of them held the two opposite ends of thoughts. One believed in balance while the other believed in superiority. One believed in protecting while the other believed in destruction.
Moreover, the powers of both of them were something that was able to create a big disturbance in this world. That was why they were two of the Four Warlock Kings.
Varant had quite a few abilities, one of which was the ability to erase the powers of other Variants. It was this power that made other Variants afraid of him.
On the other hand, Raia also had a few S-Rank abilities, one of which was the ability of Memory Manipulation. It was also a frightening ability for Variants since they had the risk of becoming the slave of Raia whenever he used his abilities successfully on them.
Just like these two Warlock Kings, the other two also had some really unique abilities, but as the saying went, every ability came with a limitation in this world.
Even though no one knew about these weaknesses other than the Variant themselves, a few were easy to guess. A lot of people tried to guess the weakness of others when battling to achieve victory.
That was why Varant and Raia's previous battle hadn't resulted in anyone's victory even though both of them had such high strength.
Moreover, Zale Azarel had once defeated Varant despite Varant's ability that was able to erase any Variant's powers. That was the only battle Varant had ever lost.
Not a single person knew how Zale had achieved this feat, but this gave him widespread recognition since Zale wasn't even part of the Four Warlock Kings when he had done this.
His popularity and rise started after this victory, and soon, he became a household name and the Strongest of the Four Warlock Kings. Zale was already strong and powerful but this was his turning point.
Varant looked towards the sky at the top of the building, staring at Raia before he jumped.
His jump made it seem like he was flying as he rose to the fiftieth story of the tall building without anything else but that single jump.
Raia stepped back with a calm look on his face as he gave space for Varant to land. Moreover, he didn't want to be close to Varant. As he had previously stated, closing in on Varant was a shortcut to defeat.
And if he got to you, it was going to be much harder to win.
Varant easily landed on top of the building before he looked at Raia.
"Raia, oh Raia. Why this city?" Varant asked as if he was tired of seeing all the destruction that was around him.
"Take a guess," Raia asked calmly, not answering straight. He wasn't in any hurry since he was only here to distract, not to actually fight.
"The city didn't do anything. There are rarely any Variants in this city. Why hurt the weak, innocent people when you could fight the strong ones? Come to the Capital City sometime if you really want to show your strength," Varant told Raia.
"Don't worry. That time isn't too far either. I'll soon be coming there, and I won't be alone at that time," Raia answered. "And that will be the day when the Capital falls, and the day you and Zeiss die," Raia responded.
"Really? Let me guess; you're putting your cards on Lucifer becoming a Warlock King to help you? You think Lucifer can defeat me since his father did, don't you?" Varant asked, scoffing. "Unfortunately, that won't happen. You'll die here. As for Lucifer, I'll erase his powers before he even becomes a threat."
Boom!
The clouds roared as thunder flashed in the sky.
Unaware of the battle that was going on in Elantra, the Battle near the facility seemingly came to a pause as if the time had stopped.
Xander had attacked Lucifer with his most intense flames. Since he saw Lucifer's eyes, he had forgotten everything. He didn't even care about the kids that were standing in the back as he attacked.
Seeing the flames coming at him, Lucifer jumped in the sky, dodging the flames as he stood mid-air like he was a god, looking down at Xander.
"Dodge!" Caen yelled loudly as he saw the flames coming towards them.
They didn't have the powers of the wind, unlike Lucifer, so they could only dodge. As they dodged in such urgency, they only thought about themselves.
They even forgot about the kids behind them as they dove to the side, escaping the flames.
Even though some of their battle gear was fireproof, it was useless against Xander's flames. None of them wished to get hit.
