Chapter 851: All a lie?

"Keep your mouth shut. You're disturbing my peace!" he arrogantly stated, but before his mouth could close, he felt the world turn upside down as his head landed on his feet. It was only then that he realized that he was dead. He didn't even know how it happened.

Jian glared at the man. "Wrong time to irritate me!'

He turned to Licia and Milen, who still didn't look upset. "Don't you two feel anger? That boy fooled us all and trapped us in this prison?!"

"It doesn't matter where we are. Don't worry. Master Licorice will find a way to bring us back as soon as he comes out of the Dungeon. This is only temporary," Milen calmly replied. "Don't worry. Our deal is valid. We'll make sure you come with us when we go back. Just like you, we also don't go back on our promises.

....

Back in the level seven Dungeon, Licorice reached a golden barrier with his version of Lucifer.

Lucifer waited for Licorice to destroy the barrier like the barrier before, but he only saw Licorice standing still, looking at the barrier.

"Is something wrong?" Lucifer asked, frowning.

"I can't break this barrier," Licorice responded. "This is like the barrier that stops us from leaving the Dungeon. It's just a slightly weaker version from the main one. Still, it's unbreakable to us. We are the prisoners, and it recognizes our energy signature. The Dungeon had been sucking our energy for centuries. It has become immune to our attacks."

"This is why it's so hard to get out of the Dungeon," he added. "But if we want to break this Dungeon, we need to go to the other side. That's where the Dungeons Core is. That's why there are so many defenses here."

"Can't you teleport to the other side?" Lucifer asked to which Licorice responded with a shake of his hand.

"If we could get to the other side, why would we need your help? We need a strong energy that we can use to destroy this Dungeon, but it can't be ours. However, it can't be weaker than ours either. That's why I needed you," Licorice explained.

"You said the energy can't be weaker than yours? So how can I help you? I haven't fought you, but I'm sure I'm not as strong as you. It's a feeling I have. So why me? I'm sure there are many people stronger than me out there, especially that Jian guy I saw in the video? Why not him?" Lucifer inquired.

"Even that person can't help us. He is too weak. There is not a single person on earth who has the strength that's needed to break this barrier." Jian exclaimed.

"Then how can I do it?" Lucifer repeated his old question, still having no answer.

"You're right. You don't have the strength that's needed either," Licorice agreed, confusing Lucifer even more. Why was he called here then?

"However... You can link us to someone who has that much energy," he smirked as he placed his hand on the head of Lucifer.

"What?" Lucifer asked, confused. "What do you mean?"

"Give me your hand," Licorice commented as he reached out his hand toward Lucifer.

Lucifer hesitated, but he didn't take the man's hand.

"Don't worry. I won't kill you. I don't need tricks if I want to kill you," the man smirked. "Moreover, if you don't give me your hand, how will he bring your parents out? How will we go out ourselves?"

Lucifer raised his hand slowly, reaching out towards the man, but he didn't hold his hand. He didn't forget about his decay. "I can't hold your hand. My decay will start working. I don't want you to think that I attacked you."

"I know that." Licorice smiled as he held the wrist of Lucifer. Even though Decay couldn't kill him, he couldn't afford to lose even a light energy during what he was about to do next.

"Whatever you do, don't resist. I need to establish a connection with someone through you. So you might feel a headache. Whatever happens, don't resist since it'll be bad for your health."

Lucifer nodded as he took a deep breath.

Gentle winds started brushing against his skin as he felt a strange sensation all around his body. It was as if there was a warm yet cold sensation that was moving through his nerves.

Suddenly, he felt a thumping pain as if his head was about to explode. He clenched his teeth.

"Don't resist!" Licorice yelled, keeping his eyes closed as well.

Lucifer tried to relax, but it was hard. However, he also didn't resist that strange feeling all around his body. His body started shining in a beautiful golden light while Licorice's body started shining in a dark light.

....

Lucifer had just reached the mansion when he felt a strange sensation even in his body. He couldn't understand what it was, but it was a very minute sensation.

More concerned about his parents, he didn't put much thought into that sensation as he entered the mansion.

Inside the mansion, Lucifer saw a beautiful red crystal that was huge enough to contain two grown up humans inside.

Lucifer stepped closer to the crystal, noticing the body of his parents inside. Both of them had their eyes closed and stood unmoving as if they were dead. However, he also noticed something odd about it.

Something wasn't right even here. His father was without a shirt inside the crystal. When he had gone back in time, he had seen his father.

He also knew the small scar his father had near the back of his arm, which wasn't on the body of the man inside the crystal. Moreover, his mother... She looked older. Throughout the years, his mother was always young because of her abilities. How could she grow old after death?

The excited expression on his face changed to a grim expression as he placed his hand on the crystal.

The crystal slowly started decaying as his hand landed on the crystal. Unfortunately, as the crystal started shrinking, the Bodies of his parents inside the crystal also started shrinking.

"What is happening?" Milena asked, confused. She noticed the other hand of Lucifer, which had a clenched fist. His expressions were slowly becoming uglier as each second passed.

Salazar understood everything. He let out a deep sigh. "His parents aren't inside the crystal. It was all a lie... There's something special about this crystal that conjured them, if I'm not wrong. What we see inside the crystal is an illusion made by the beasts. That's why it's disappearing as the crystal shrinks.

Within seconds, the figure of Zale and Clarisse became completely see through, confirming the words of Salazar.
