Chapter 401: Selected Team

"Who are they? Please tell me I'm coming," Tristan called out. "Please please please let me come! Now Elisium is boring without any enemies! I want to come with you!"

"Taking you would be a bad idea. You're very impulsive. You'll certainly create a blunder and die. You don't have what it takes to pull a covert mission," A person chimed in before Lucifer could even reply. 

As for the person, it was none other than the red-haired lady who was sitting beside Tristan. 

"Come on, Jane! You know I'm not impulsive anymore. When it comes to missions, I'm really serious. I won't blow the cover," Tristan replied. 

"As for dying, that's impossible. They won't even be able to get close to me without being sliced in half," he further added. 

"I'm sorry Tristan, but I'm not taking you this time. And it's not because you're impulsive. My reasons are different," Lucifer finally declared, disappointing Tristan. 

"What reasons then?" Tristan asked. 

"Your sword is powerful, and your attacks are fast. Even your own speed is very fast, and you can certainly be good on this mission, but I would need you here instead," Lucifer explained. 

"I need someone to support Kellian in keeping this place safe. As you know, the threat of the Warlock Council still looms over this Nation."

" I need powerful people here to keep them at bay in my absence. And who better than you?" he asked, comforting Tristan. 

He had learned how to manage his people. Instead of saying that he didn't want Tristan on this mission because his skills didn't suit this mission, he made a different excuse. 

"That means Kellian isn't coming with you either? Since you said, I need to support Kellian here?" Tristan asked. 

"That's right. He won't be coming with me either. As I said, I don't want to weaken the defenses of Elisium."

"That's why I'm only taking a small team. The team consists of only three people— I, Salazar, and Caen," Lucifer replied. 

He declared the team he had selected, which shocked quite a few people. 

Firstly, people on the left were surprised that he was taking Caen with him, who had the weakest firepower amongst the people present here. Secondly, he was taking Salazar, who they couldn't trust. 

Lucifer hadn't selected even a single powerful Warlock from Uprising to take with him. 

At least that's what people on the left side of the table were thinking. 

As for the people on the right side, they had a completely different thought process. Salazar knew that he was coming, but he could see why Lucifer would be taking Caen.

 He wasn't disappointed with the selection, but he was certainly amazed that Lucifer didn't select more. 

Alicia and Cassius were shocked since they believed they would be going with Lucifer. 

Cassius had especially believed that he would be coming with Lucifer. He couldn't believe that he was being left behind. 

Uzuki was relieved that he didn't have to go. He didn't care who went and who didn't. All he knew was that he could relax in Elisium and enjoy.

As for Jiang, he was also happy that Lucifer hadn't selected him. 

"Are you sure you don't want to take more? I think you should at least take Dallas or Yaliza with you," Kellian suggested, thinking that Lucifer should have selected at least one more person. 

"I already thought long and hard about it. Three people should be enough," Lucifer explained. 

"The Divine Empire isn't an ordinary place where we can enter with force. I can certainly take all of you if I wanted, but that would just mean more risk."

"If any of you are caught, you'll become a servant of theirs to be used against me," he continued. "I can't have that happen."

" That's why I only selected people accordingly. Salazar can slow down the time and attacks in his surroundings, which helps him keep himself safe. He can also slow down the others," he further added. 

" So he's the safest there. And even if he is lost and turned, I can stop his powers any time. There's no risk of taking him."

"As for Caen, he doesn't have any firepower, but that's alright. I won't be using him for any heavy lifting."

"I have the confidence to keep him safe too. And even if he somehow does and turns, I can take care of it. His powers aren't something that can be used to hurt me."

"Any other questions?" Lucifer asked after finishing his explanation. 

No one said anything. It seemed like Lucifer had already decided. If he wasn't listening to Kellian, he wasn't going to listen to anyone else. 

As for Cassius and Alicia, they decided to talk to him in private to convince him to take them. 

Seeing no opposition, Lucifer nodded. "It's final then. Now we only need to decide how we'll get to that place."

"From what we know so far, that place is inside the mountainous region, and no commercial flights are allowed to enter that place. We can't get you in that way," Kellian said.

"That Empire isn't near the sea either. So you can't go through the sea route. That leaves only one option for you, which would be slightly hard as well."

Lucifer already knew what Kellian was talking about. He also knew that there was only one option left for them. He didn't interfere and let him talk. 

Pushing the chair behind, Kellian stood up and walked over to the wall where a big map was hanging. He also picked a stick from nearby. 

"The map you see in front of you is the continent of Darkness. It's a massive continent which is nearly as large as ours."

"However, only three nations exist in the Continent of Darkness, excluding the Divine Empire!"

"The nation in the North is the biggest. It's known as Gallium. It's a powerful nation known for its military might. It's said that this nation is ruled by one of Milena's minions. It's indirectly a part of the Divine Empire, just not on the papers!"

"The Nation on the south is the second Nation which is a small nation. It's not even one-tenth the size of Gallium, but it's pretty useful."

"It's the nation which controls the fishing industry and their transfer to other nations. It's the only nation which is close to the sea."

"We can enter this nation through the sea, but the problem is that the distance between it and the Divine Empire is too long. You will have to travel five thousand kilometers alone to get to the Divine Empire."

"That leaves only one option…"
