I'm The Devil

Chapter 184: Lucifer Meets Cain

"Easy there, believe me, you don’t want to go down that route"

They heard a voice sound from the portal and a man of Celestial beauty emerged from the portal as he looked at them with a smile on his face.

"The name’s Lucifer"

Cain’s grip on his weapon tightened as he sized up the stranger who had suddenly appeared before them. Mabel, standing beside him, mirrored his caution, her expression guarded as she watched the newcomer warily.

"Who are you?" Cain demanded, his voice sharp with suspicion.

The stranger, who bore an otherworldly aura of power and authority, offered them a charming smile. "Like I said before, I am Lucifer," he replied smoothly, his voice carrying an air of confidence.

Cain’s eyes narrowed as he assessed the situation. He had never heard of a being named Lucifer, and the name alone sent a shiver down his spine. Beside him, Mabel tensed, her hand drifting toward her weapon.

"We don’t need any trouble here," Cain said, his tone firm. "Just tell us what you want and be on your way."

Lucifer’s smile widened, though there was a hint of mischief in his eyes. "No need to be so hostile, my friends," he said, his voice smooth as silk. "I come in peace, I assure you."

Cain remained skeptical, his instincts warning him to tread carefully. "We have no business with you, Lucifer," he replied, his voice steely. "Leave us be."

"We don’t need your help," Cain growled, his voice low and dangerous. "We’ll handle this on our own."

Lucifer’s smile widened at Cain’s defiance, his expression bordering on amusement. "Oh, but you misunderstand me, my friend," he said, his voice smooth as silk. "I have no intention of interfering with your affairs. Quite the opposite, in fact. I merely offer my assistance as a gesture of goodwill."

Cain’s grip on his weapon tightened as he regarded Lucifer with suspicion. He didn’t trust the fallen angel’s intentions, and he certainly wasn’t about to accept help from someone he barely knew.

"We don’t need your goodwill," Cain replied, his voice dripping with disdain. "We’ll handle the situation ourselves, just like we always have."

Lucifer’s smile faltered slightly at Cain’s rejection, though his eyes continued to gleam with amusement. "Very well," he said with a shrug. "But should you ever find yourselves in need of assistance, you can contact me using this, Cain, son of Adam"

Cain’s eyes widened in surprise as Lucifer addressed him by name, a cold shiver running down his spine. How did this stranger know his name? And more importantly, how did he know about his lineage, about his connection to Adam, the father of humanity?

"How do you know my name?" Cain demanded, his voice tinged with suspicion. "And how do you know about my father?"

Lucifer merely smiled, his eyes glinting with amusement. "I know many things, Cain," he replied cryptically. "Things that would surprise you. But as for your father, well, let’s just say that he and I have a long history."

Before Cain could press the matter further, Lucifer raised a hand in a casual gesture of farewell. "Until we meet again, Cain," he said with a smirk, before disappearing into the shadows.
