Chapter 392 - 392: Lucifer's Weapon

"Looks good, I suppose," Lucifer muttered, observing the glasses in his hands.

The tinted glasses made it impossible for someone to see his eyes. He tried wearing sunglasses.

"They do fit," he muttered, bringing out his phone from his pocket. He looked at his reflection on the screen.

"When you’re free, you should try talking to the in-built assistant to see its full capabilities. I’m sure you’ll be surprised even more," the white-haired scientist said

"But if you actually want something which covers all minor features of the glasses, we did create this manual for you," he continued, pointing towards a booklet that was placed on the table.

"When you’re not using the glasses, keep them in the pocket of your cloak. It’ll charge your glasses, so they’re never out of power," he added.

"Is this cloak fully charged already? I thought it needed to absorb attacks to charge?" Lucifer asked, curious.

"We did charge it a little. We didn’t charge it completely since that would decrease its absorption capacity when it actually faced an attack. But if you want to charge it, you can attack the cloak yourself," the man answered.

"But only attack after taking the cloak off. You won’t want to hurt yourself even with that healing of yours," he added, walking over to the following table, which was placed nearby.

Lucifer kept the sunglasses in his pocket as he followed the scientist.

The scientist stopped at the third table, which was also completely white, matching the room’s aesthetics.

"This is the next item on the list. We had a lot of back and forth when deciding on this since a lot of people in our team argued against it, saying you won’t need it," he said, picking up a gun that was on the table.

"A gun? Kane, do you really think I’ll need a gun?" Lucifer asked, shaking his head. "I think I can understand why people in your team were against it."

"Hmm? You know my name?" The white-haired man asked, surprised.

"Why won’t I?" Lucifer asked.

"Well, this is our first time meeting. And you didn’t ask for my name either. I’m surprised you knew my name."

"I thought you’d only know the name of my partner who gave you the briefing when you came the first time." the scientist known as Kane said, surprised.

" Man, I miss him. He hasn’t returned since he left to deliver your battle gear to you," he added.

"He told me about you when I was coming here," Lucifer explained. "Anyway, is there anything special about it? If you made it, you must’ve felt strongly about it."

"That’s right. I think this will come really handy actually. And I agree, a Warlock like you doesn’t need any weapons," Kane replied.

"Your lightning itself is the best weapon there can be, but I think this will be useful for you."

He tossed the gun towards Lucifer, who caught it.

"Here, try shooting,"

Lucifer caught the gun and aimed it towards the wall on the other end.

He soon pulled the trigger, but nothing happened.

"Hmm? Nothing happened?"

He pulled the trigger three more times, but still, nothing happened.

Confused, he turned to look at Kane.

"Ah, right. I forgot to tell you about the lock. It’s something I added, so even if an unauthorized person takes the gun, he can’t use it," Kane explained, smiling wryly.

"Don’t tell me I need to draw a circle on it too?" Lucifer asked, confused. He couldn’t see anything on this gun to unlock it.

"Not at all. I’m not an idiot to make that mechanism on the gun. The lock is simple. You just need to triple tap on the trigger. It’ll unlock. If you want to lock it, use that triple tap again," Kane replied.

Hearing the answer, Lucifer once again looked at Kane weirdly.

Shaking his head, he triple tapped the trigger.

Tuck!

As soon as he tapped the trigger a third time, a strange sound came from inside the gun.

"That sound means that it’s unlocked. You can fire now." Kane reminded Lucifer.

Lucifer again aimed the gun at the wall before pulling the trigger.

As soon as he pulled the trigger, an ordinary bullet left the gun at lightning-fast speed. It hit the wall and got stuck there.

"Looks like an ordinary bullet. It can’t even pass through the wall?" Lucifer shook his head in disappointment.

"Are you disappointed?" Kane asked, smirking.

"If that’s all it can do, then yeah," Lucifer responded.

Kane stepped in front of Lucifer, raising his hand towards the wall where the bullet was stuck.

A semi-transparent barrier formed right before their eyes which isolated the wall and the bullet.

"That’s the first specialty of this gun. It was made to disappoint," Kane said, smiling.

"Please tell me you’re joking," Lucifer let out, placing the gun back on the table. "Because if that’s the reason you made it, this gun is a success and a failure at the same time."

"I’m not joking. The gun was actually made to disappoint, but it’s not to disappoint you. It’s to disappoint the enemies," Kane said, smiling.

"Can’t you see it?" he asked, smiling.

"See what?" Lucifer asked, confused.

"Exactly. The bullets are a special kind of bullets. They look like ordinary bullets, but they aren’t. Ten seconds after they hit something, an invisible gas starts leaking out."

"Within seconds, that gas covers the surrounding area. As for that gas, it’s a sleeping gas. I’ve designed this keeping your infiltration in mind."

"Imagine you have an enemy who is a noble. You shoot at it but miss. The bullet lands on the ground. That’s when this bullet will start leaking this gas, putting all your enemies to sleep."

"Be careful though; it can also put friends to sleep. Since you have healing, you won’t be affected. So this is a good gun for you." Kane explained.

"It’s a gun to put enemies to sleep? Are you sure it works? How long does it take to put someone to sleep?" Lucifer asked, picking the gun again. "And how long before they wake up?"

"Five minutes for the effect to show. And they wake up after an hour at best, unless they have some ability that makes them immune to this like you," Kane explained.

"What’s the range of this gas? What if a person goes out of its range before five minutes are over?" Lucifer asked.

"If the person leaves before two minutes, he’ll still feel a little dizzy after five minutes are over, but he won’t fall asleep."
