Although he half-expected the old man's trust and interest to be low, he didn't think the numbers would reach negative.
The more he read, the more his eyes widened in shock. The one man he believed to be the safest turned out to be worse than all his expectations.
"So not only is he powerful enough to threaten the world, but he's also a 'mortal enemy' of mine for some mysterious reason?" He chuckled painfully in his mind. "Way to go, Lucian."
Stuck in a mix of unending laughter and a crippling sadness, Lucian's lips twitched frantically.
After a short moment of struggle, Lucian momentarily let out a deep sigh. "No, this isn't the time. I shouldn't worry about something like that right now."
Lucian's actions were simple. He merely wanted to prevent the current situation from folding into his immediate demise.
