Chapter 343 - 343: What Are You?!

Chapter 343 - 343: What Are You?!

"Sir Varant! What are you doing?! President Quan asked in disbelief, feeling a chill crawl through his skin at the sight of his dead soldiers.

He felt like something was really wrong here. He was in danger.

As he asked a question to Varant, the only response he received was a smile from Caen.

"The meaning of this is simple. Your reign is over now," Caen said, smirking.

The president stood up and ran towards the door, realizing that he needed to escape before anything else. He had a really bad feeling right now.

Fortunately, the door was in his direction. There was no obstruction either.

Still, before he could even get there, he noticed a strange shadow appear on the doors, from which a man came out.

"I don’t think you’re allowed to leave yet, old man," The man said, who happened to be none other than Kellian.

"Y-you! I recognize you! You’re from Uprising! Sir Varant, have you really decided to join the Uprising?!" Quan asked in disbelief, looking at Varant.

He could understand what was happening here! The Uprising Vice Captain and APF Captain were both here, working together!

"What Varant? That guy is long dead, and so is your hope," Caen let out, bursting into laughter.

His face started changing, returning to a different face. His body proportions also changed, becoming more athletic and slender.

"Y-you aren’t Varant! Who are you?!" Quan inquired, horrified. He was like a rat trapped in a cage with no way out.

"My name is Caen, and I’m from Variant Uprising. Oh, and let us introduce you to someone even more special," Caen let out, chuckling.

He pointed towards Lucifer as he introduced him. "Meet the new leader of Variant Uprising and the future Ruler of Elisium!"

"New Leader?" Quan took a step back, stunned. "He isn’t Raia. How can that be?!"

" Raia is dead. Varant is dead. And soon, Zeiss will be dead as well," Lucifer casually said as if he wasn’t talking about a world-changing event but something extremely casual.

" W-who are you?" Quan asked, staring at the young boy who in no way looked like the leader of such a fierce organization.

"Lucifer Azarel..." Lucifer gave his full name, making sure the man understood what they were facing. Someone from the Azarel family was back to get their revenge.

"A-Azarel? Son of Zale Azarel?" Quan inquired, stunned to know who Lucifer actually was.

"That’s good. It seems like you still remember." Lucifer nodded.

"Why are you doing it?! Your Parents were such great heroes! They knew it was good to support humanity. They always walked the right path. Why do you select the wrong path?!" Quan asked.

He was trying to get through to Lucifer, knowing he was the new leader. He wanted to awaken the humanity of Lucifer.

"My parents were great heroes?! They knew it was good to support humanity? They always walked the right path? Is that why you all decided to kill them?" Lucifer asked as he looked in the eyes of Quan, seemingly staring deep into the depths of his soul.

"T-this...." Hearing Lucifer, Quan was taken aback. At the same time, he also started sweating.

"What nonsense are you spouting! They were either killed by Dungeon Dwellers or the Uprising! We had no hand in it. Someone is manipulating you!"

Lucifer took a deep breath as he sighed. "Is that so?"

"Exactly! So stop this right now!" Quan commanded.

Lucifer looked down with his arms folded as if he was lost in deep thought.

Seeing this, President Quan was finally relieved. It seemed like he could actually manipulate Lucifer and survive.

After a few seconds, Lucifer slowly raised his head. "You know, Quan... There are many things I hate about you people. But there’s also one thing that I absolutely love."

"W-what thing?" Quan inquired.

"You guys have some really good idioms. I remember one just for this occasion. Would you like to listen?" Lucifer asked.

" Speak."

"It’s the saying that a dying man doesn’t lie. Do you think there’s some truth to it?" Lucifer asked lazily.

"Yeah. I think that is true," Quan agreed.

"Oh right, I forgot to tell you something. It was Varant who told me that you were also involved when he was dying. I think you can take it from there, can’t you?" Lucifer asked. "So tell me the truth. Were you lying, or was he?"

"H-he told you? I don’t believe it. Why would he tell you such an absurd lie?!" Quan expressed shock at this statement as if it was really a lie.

"You’re actually not a bad actor; you know that? Are all politicians as talented as you?" Lucifer asked, smiling.

"Kellian, can you please slice one finger of his? Keep slicing a finger every minute until he accepts the truth. We have plenty of time, I think," he commanded Kellian, closing his eyes. Everything else was for later.

"You! You can’t do this to me. Don’t forget; there are cameras in this room! My men will be here within seconds! We can sit and talk about our indifference instead of going all out."

"Because you should know, if something happens to me, this whole building will be blown up! You’ll die as well!" Quan warned Lucifer, glaring at him.

"Of all the things you could threaten me with, you decided to go with death?’ Lucifer asked, laughing. "But don’t worry about the cameras. We already took care of them."

He gestured towards one of the cameras. Quan looked in the direction to see where he was pointing, only to see the camera’s lenses covered by a pitch-black shadow.

He hastily looked at all the other cameras only to find it the same everywhere.

All the cameras were covered by this shadow. It was created by none other than Kellian, all for the purpose of fooling the cameras.

At the moment, all the cameras were only transmitting pitch black, which was to make the security of this place think that there was some technical difficulty in the system.

" Kellian, you can begin," Lucifer repeated.

" You don’t... Arghhhhh!"

Quan couldn’t even finish his sentence before he started screaming as his finger was sliced mid-sentence. His finger dropped to the ground.

"What the heck?" Uzuki stood up, shocked, as he saw the finger of Quan dropping on the ground.

He wasn’t the only one who was shocked. Cassius also had the same reaction. They weren’t the only ones either.

Alicia and Caen were also shocked as they looked at Quan with their eyes wide open. Lucifer was also stunned.

A frown engulfed his face as he asked, " Who... no, What are you?!"
