Chapter 662: Counter Challenge

"Sigh, these newly awakened people. Just because they gained some powers, they think they are the kings of the world," the dark-haired man said as he took off his sunglasses.

He got off his chair and wore a jacket before walking downstairs to have a talk with the two Variants.

His long dark hair was tied into a ponytail that came down to his waist. His deep black eyes were slightly intimidating as they seemed to be filled with dominance and arrogance.

"Father, you want me to talk with the people that threaten to kill everyone here?" Joan's daughter asked, hearing the rumor.

"Don't worry, I told you about the silver-haired guy, right? The threat must be given by him. The dark hair one is more cordial. I want you to go for him instead," Joan said. "Just wait for them to come upstairs and then go talk to him."

Letting out a deep sigh, his daughter nodded. She wondered what kind of person Zale was going to be. So far, she was going just by his looks. She did find him attractive and hot. Other than that, she didn't know anything.

She started waiting for Zale to come upstairs.

...

The Dark Haired Variant reached downstairs. He picked up a nearby chair and walked to Lucifer and Zale.

He placed the chair right there and sat down, sharing the table.

"So you two are the Variants?" he asked lazily.

Lucifer just observed the face of the man who had taken a seat.

"You know, I've already been disturbed once. I'm really not in the mood. Moreover, I am really hungry. And I can be really cranky when I'm hungry. So leave and don't annoy us."

"As expected, you really are a bunch of arrogant kids," the dark-haired man said. "Anywhere, I am Jastor Flien. You?"

"Zale Azarel," Zale was the first one to introduce himself before Lucifer. "And he is Lucifer. May I know what you need from us?"

"Nothing much. I just heard a rumor going around that you people threatened to destroy this ship and kill everyone?" the dark-haired man said.

"I just wanted to say that a Variant should always know his limits and never cross them. Because once you try to cross the limit, you might end up worse than you started before," Jastor said calmly.

"Also, I wanted to tell you that this ship is under my protection. If you tried to do something here or hurt even a single person, you'll both end up dead," he further added. "Have a good day, gentlemen."

After he finished, he stood up and started leaving.

"Oh wait, I forgot something." Along the way, he stopped. "One should always clean up behind them."

He snapped his finger, making the chair he was sitting on appear back at its original place. It was as if he had teleported the chair.

"Third Teleporter in a week, just my luck," Lucifer muttered, frowning.

After Arthur and the Warlock Council member who was able to teleport from place to place, it was his third time meeting a person with similar powers. It was also slightly annoying for him since such people were the most difficult to deal with.

He couldn't stop them just by using Energy Negation either. They were worse than cockroaches. They were so hard to kill.

Jastor went upstairs after giving a glimpse of his strength, not even looking back.

"What was that guy talking about? What threat?" Zale asked Lucifer.

"Nothing. It looks like that guy went crazy. Or someone must have started a rumor about us. Maybe that old man I sent away before," Lucifer replied. "Forget it."

"On other hand, just sit right here. I'll go and clear up the misunderstanding with the guy. Save my seat. The waiter should be here with food soon."

It was Lucifer's turn to reply to the subtle threat he was given. He never took kindly to threats after all.

He went upstairs, leaving Zale behind.

"That should remind them that they aren't alone in this world. Hopefully, they'll learn to tame themselves after this." Jastor took off his jacket and sat on the chair to continue his sunbath.

Lucifer stepped on the deck as well. Joan was constantly keeping an eye there to make sure he didn't miss Zale when he came upstairs, but it was Lucifer who came first.

"My dear daughter, I think it's time for you to get into action. That rude guy is on the deck. That must mean the other one is downstairs alone! Go and spread your charm to make the man fall on his knees before you!" Joan told his daughter.

His daughter just rolled her eyes. "Sigh, whatever."

She stood up and went to the stairs. Along the way, she walked past Lucifer with just a few meters of distance between them.

Lucifer reached Jastor and stood before him.

"Taking a sunbath?" he asked Jestor. "I think this much should be enough. Don't want your skin to burn."

He snapped his finger just like Jastor had done downstairs.

With a snap of his fingers, dark clouds appeared in the sky, covering the sun entirely.

"You? You're following me?" Jestor asked. "And you think these tricks will intimidate me?"

"Who says I'm here to intimidate you?" Lucifer responded lazily. "You came to introduce yourself. I thought I should do the same."

He casually waved his fingers. Winds started flying with a single gesture of his. The winds picked up a distance chair and carried it with them.

The chair stopped right before Lucifer.

"So, let's start the introduction," Lucifer said, sitting on the chair.

"My name is Lucifer Azarel. And the thing I hate the most is blind threats. You are the third guy who I've seen use teleportation. You know what happened to the other two guys that do the same?" he asked.

"One works under me, and the other is dead for going against me. I hope you're not looking to be the latter kind."

"Oh, and about that threat of yours. What did you say?"

"If I'm not wrong, you said that this ship is under my protection. If I tried to do something here or hurt even a single person, I'd end up dead. Very brave of you to threaten me. Let's just see if what you said is something you can really follow."

Lucifer raised his hands and gently clapped.

Boom~

A pitch-black lightning bolt fell from the sky, just a few meters away from the ship.

"W-what was that?"

Seeing the lightning fall so close, all on the deck were frightened like rabbits.

"Next bolt will fall on this ship. Try stopping it," Lucifer said, smirking. "You have three minutes. Let's see what your protection truly means."
