Chapter 853: Lucifer vs Lucifer?

Licorice took the hands of Lucifer, holding his wrist once again as he reached out his other hand towards the crystal before him.

A violet luminescence surrounded both their bodies; however, just as the man could touch the crystal, a dark shadow came out of nowhere and swallowed the crystal.

Another Lucifer landed at the entrance of the core, intending to send the core to his shadow realm so it couldn’t be destroyed. However, as soon as his shadow touched the core, it disintegrated. The crystal was still in its place.

Lucifer clenched his chest, feeling the pain of his shadow being destroyed.

Licorice also noticed the shadow. He turned around, curious.

“It’s you,” he smiled, noticing the other Lucifer. Finally, both the Lucifers were standing before each other, looking at each other.

“You think it was that easy to move that crystal? If it were that easy, I wouldn’t need to wait so long. However, I’m surprised that you were able to pass through my men. How did you do it?” He asked, curious.

He knew that Lucifer was strong, but he wasn’t that strong to take care of them.

Lucifer observed the Crystal behind Licorice. The crystal was the last level of defense that was keeping this Dungeon sealed. If it was gone, the Dungeon was going to come crashing down.

Lucifer and Licorice were more stunned than anyone else. He hadn’t known that there was another Lucifer. He thought there was only one… Him. The dark-robed Lucifer stood before him, who was dressed in white. If their clothes weren’t so different, he would’ve thought he was looking in the mirror.

“You…?” he asked, frowning. “Who are you?”

“I am you… And you are me. We are one, yet we are two,” the real Lucifer responded.

“What?”

“I don’t have time to explain anything. Just know that I’m Lucifer Azarel, who lived the same life as you until we were tossed in the sea. My heart was pulled out of my body which my body healed. It was pulled out of the water within a few months, and I lived.”

“If I’m not wrong, you’re the Lucifer that came from the healing through the heart who just came out. In other words, you are not me, but you’re also me. I lived for the last eight years while you stayed in the sea. You didn’t lose your memories. It’s just that you never made any memories in the first place. Only I did,” Lucifer explained.

Even though he didn’t have much time, he decided to explain briefly.

“He’s lying. Such a preposterous story,” Licorice commented. “He is a Variant who can clone anyone, along with their abilities. He’s also with those people who want to stop you from freeing your parents. Don’t listen to them.”

He turned around and placed his hand on the Crystal. The Lucifer he was holding onto was stunned, but he decided to believe Licorice. That story was stupid, and he had seen a person in Uprising who could shapeshift.

It wasn’t difficult for them to do it. In any case, even if he wanted to stop Licorice, he couldn’t do it. He was just a conduit of power who couldn’t control his body anymore.

Surrounded by the violet hue, Licorice grabbed the crystal.

Boom~

As soon as he grabbed the crystal, a lightning bolt came crashing on his chest, tossing him back.

Lucifer’s hands were freed as Licorice shot back, crashing on the stone wall in the back. The crystal also landed on the ground.

The real Lucifer shot toward Licorice to attack him again; unfortunately, before he could get to the man, he was forced to stop as he found someone standing before him.

The person who blocked Lucifer’s path was none other than Lucifer himself.

“I told you all; I won’t let you interfere. This is for my parents. If you don’t want me to kill you, leave!” The weaker Lucifer said, threatening the real Lucifer.

Licorice stood behind the white robed Lucifer, smirking. Only the black robed Lucifer could see his smirk though.

“Don’t be an idiot. He is fooling you. Our patients aren’t in that crystal! They were never there. It was just a fake projection inside the crystal that the man used to fool you. I also came here to save my parents! I checked that place! It is all a lie!” The black robed Lucifer exclaimed.

“You think I will trust you? I saw them with my own eyes!” The white robed Lucifer roared.

“They think you’re an idiot. They forget you’ve been forged in the cauldron of betrayal. They can’t fool you so easily. However, they won’t let us do it as long as they are here. How about we take them out?” Licorice asked, stepping closer to him.

Lucifer could feel his face twitch. He was being obstructed by none other than himself? It was him who was fighting with Licorice, but it was also him who was blocking his path?

“I’m giving you a last chance. Leave and stop obstructing us. If you don’t leave now, I will kill you!” The white robed Lucifer warned again.

“You might be me, but even you’re not allowed to stand in my path if you’re going to side with the stupid!’ the dark robed Lucifer exclaimed as lightning surrounded him.

A kick landed on the white robed Lucifer’s face, which tossed him towards the exit.

The lightning armor appeared around the dark robed Lucifer, along with black wings that came from his back.

Licorice glanced at the white robed Lucifer, who crashed on the wall before turning to the dark robed Lucifer.

“Even you can’t stop me now. I’ve covered all the things, including gathering the abilities. Now you aren’t needed. So I won’t hold back,” Licorice stated as his eyes shone in a blood red light. “I need to kill that man, and if I have to kill you to get to him, I won’t hesitate!”

A strange dark aura surrounded his body.

~~~

Milena, Yaliza, and Salazar stood before the white robed Lucifer, who had just crashed on the wall. They blocked his path so he couldn’t interfere with the battle of their Lucifer.

“You two keep him busy. I’ll go help him,” Milena told Yaliza and Salazar. Both the men nodded.

Milena turned around, only to be greeted with a gruesome sight.

It had only been a few seconds since the battle started, and she saw her Lucifer flying back as well. There were thousands of cut marks all around his face, which was strange since Licorice didn’t have any sword as a weapon.
