One True God

Chapter 19: An unexpected clue

When Lucifer was finished with Kai, and he decided what to do from now, Lucifer quickly looked for the First Academy.

After all, Lucifer needed to know what it was and where it was to attend it.

However, as smart as Lucifer, there was something that he didn't expect.

It was something that was so natural for him that he didn't even consider it.

And that was...

"There's a new writing form..."

Lucifer said as he looked everywhere. There were signs at every post, but there was none that he could recognize.

There was also something that looks like the name of a store or something like that, but Lucifer couldn't read it.

And that could only mean one thing.

"Someone invented another alphabet, and it became the norm."

Indeed, that would be the case. After all, thousands of years have already passed.

It would be weird if the demons or even angels have not progressed at all.

Even though they have been at war for years, there would definitely be some development.

However, this development was bad for Lucifer.

After all, how could he possibly go now to the First Academy that Kai was going?

"I could understand what that piece of shit was saying, so does that mean the language is still the same?"

Lucifer could understand when Kai spoke perfectly. That must mean that they were using the same language.

And if that were the case, the only thing new should be the writing system or alphabet of the language.

However, even if that were the case, this was still a problem for Lucifer.

"I don't want to stand out..." Lucifer said as his purpose here was to stay low and gather information about the Hidden world.

If Lucifer were to ask the people here where the First Academy was, they would suspect him.

At least, that's what Lucifer thought. After all, the First Academy seems to be pretty infamous.

Not knowing where it was would definitely make Lucifer a weird person in one's mind.

"I can't force someone either..."

He already killed Kai, a member of the First Academy and a demon who would definitely have connections with someone else.Your f𝒂vorite stories on 𝒏ov𝒆lb𝒊n(.)c𝒐m

And that means that Lucifer has already left a trace. There was the possibility of someone tracking him down for killing Kai.

Of course, Lucifer could just kill that guy who would dare investigate him.

However, the fact that if he continued doing that would mean he would get infamous.

And that was something bad for the current Lucifer.

And if Lucifer forced someone to answer him or killed another person in a dark alleyway, there's no doubt that sooner or later, that would come back to bite his ass.

After all, killing Kai was already biting his ass.

Well, Lucifer didn't care about that.

It was then that someone walked in front of Lucifer.

However, there wasn't only one person, but it was a whole group of people.

They walked together, and as they walked, they were talking with each other.

"It's the entrance exam! Which academies do you think will pick us?!"

"I just wish that I won't get picked by the First Academy!"

"Oh, I feel the same way."

The group of men was all smiles as they were talking with each other.

However, Lucifer didn't care about that as his ears perked up.

After all, they said something that was...interesting for him.

"Man, my dream is to go to the Royal Academy! Only aces go there, right?"

"Dude, you're dreaming too much."

"Yeah. Besides, haven't you heard? The princess will also take the exam today!"

"Now that you mention it..."

"Mwehehehehe."

The men laughed as they imagined that they would see the princess.

Of course, they were walking while doing that. And because they were so focused on talking with each other, they didn't notice.

They didn't notice that Lucifer was already following them.

After all, it seems that this group of youth was about to go to a place called the entrance exam.

'If my luck is good, then the First Academy is there as well.' Lucifer thought as he kept walking.

He was walking steadily and quietly to avoid any unwanted eye towards him.

And it was only time until Lucifer would be able to go to his destination as well.

"Princess, please stop reading that book. We are already nearing our location."

A voice resounded out in this...place. It was a small room, but it was enough for the two people inside.

And the one who spoke was an old butler who was sitting in front of a woman.

That woman was reading a book in her hands, and it seems that she wasn't even listening to the old butler.

"Princess, are you listening to me?" The old butler said as he raised his body to take a peek at the woman's eyes.

And indeed, the woman's eyes were reading the book intently. Her red eyes were burning with passion as she continued reading.

It was then that the old butler took the book away. After all, he can't have the woman keep on reading.

"Ah! Sebastian, what are you doing?!" The woman said as she stood up.

Her fluffy white hair bounced as she did, and her red eyes were glaring at the old butler.

After all, she wasn't finished reading that book.

However, as Sebastian was taller than her, the princess was unable to get the book, which was being held up by the old butler.

"Princess, I know you like the Fallen Demon, but have you forgotten?"

"We are enemies with his followers. The Luciferian Empire is threatening our peace with their lunatics."

The old butler said as he looked at the book with pitiful eyes.

After all, the title of the book was...The Fallen Demon, Lucifer.

"I know that! However, it's not like Sir Lucifer is the one leading them!"

The woman said as she looked down. It seems that her energy was gone from before.

And Sebastian was looking at the woman with eyes full of pity for her.

After all, he knew what she was going to say.

"After all...Sir Lucifer is already dead."
