Chapter 403: Cassius's Mission

"You mean we should invade them if they start preparing to invade Elisium?" Kellian asked. 

"That's right. We can easily monitor them now. If you see any signs of them mobilizing their forces against Elisium, just go to Zeston first," Lucifer agreed. 

"Follow the plan I made for infiltration and give them a blow that they'll forever remember. I should be back by then as well," he further added. 

"We won't follow the gentle approach. Even if their envoy comes, let them see that Elisium is ours. I don't care if you kill all the Envoys without asking a single question."

"Warlock Council schemed a bit too much to have my parents killed and to manipulate Elisium. Their days are already numbered. No need to play nice!"

Seeing the hard stance of Lucifer, Jean was surprised as well as pleased. Dallas was also impressed. Now they were truly behaving like kings of this place. 

"Oh, one more thing. I think it's time we also started spreading out. I want you to take over all our neighboring nations by the time I return. They've always been weaker than Elisium."

"They'll easily surrender, but I leave the decision to you. I don't care how you do it, but I want it done."

"Taking over neighboring nations? That won't be hard, but the problems are the nations after that. They'll feel threatened and might attack us," Yaliza chimed in the discussion. 

"No, they won't attack. You know why?" Lucifer asked. 

"Why?" Yaliza inquired. 

"Because they'll be scared. Elisium isn't called the strongest nation on this continent for no reason. We have the strongest Warlocks of this continent. No nation would be willing to face our wrath. Take over the surrounding nations then stop."

"Give an excuse as to why we took over. You can use any excuse that can make us look legit; for example, we receive information about the appearance of Dungeons in these nations that can be threatening to us."

"That's why we're taking over these nations because we can keep them safe as the strongest Warlock Nation," Lucifer explained. "There are literally thousands of excuses you can use to invade a nation."

"In any case, that's only if there comes a need for this. I doubt this would be needed because this won't be an invasion. It'll be something similar to what we did with Elisium. The legal government of those nations would be giving control to us without any battles."

"As for why they'll do that, I'm sure you're all clever enough to know how to achieve that."

As Lucifer finished his explanation, Cassius raised his hand. "I don't understand why we need to do this? What's the benefit for us? Why are we taking over other nations?"

"It's because we need to grow. We can't grow if we're limited to just one nation. The Warlock Council consists of the Warlocks from their entire continent. It's a big force. If we want to match them, we would need just as big of a force," Lucifer replied. 

"Moreover, I believe the continent can grow even more as one unit. As nations, we're divided. As a continent, we'll be united," he further added. 

Even though all he said was just excuses to mask his real reasons, Cassius believed him. He didn't ask any other questions.

" Kellian, can you do it?" Lucifer asked, turning to Kellian. 

"It shall be done. By the time you're back, you'll find all seven neighboring nations under our control," Kellian agreed. 

"That's good. Anything else you wanted to talk about? If not, we can leave."

No one said anything, and the meeting finished. Lucifer stood up and left the room with the others.

Everyone went their separate ways. 

...

Only an hour had passed since the meeting ended, and Cassius had already approached him to talk about something in private. 

Lucifer was standing near the windows of his room, observing the quiet streets outside when Cassius approached him. 

"Did you want to talk about something?" Lucifer asked without turning back. 

"I'm here to tell you that I'm coming with you," Cassius said. 

"No, you're not," Lucifer casually answered. 

"Is there any specific reason for why I can't come?" Cassius asked. 

"Yeah. It's because you're not needed there. Three of us are enough," Lucifer replied. 

" Moreover, if I lose you, it'll be dangerous for me. I can handle a turned Salazar since I can stop his powers. I can also handle a turned Caen since he's weak, but a turned Cassius is dangerous," he further said. 

"It's the same reason I'm not taking anyone else from here, including Alicia. In fact, I wanted to go alone, but I need Caen and Salazar," he continued. 

"You think they can kill me?" Cassius asked. 

"What makes you think they can't? If things turn South, we won't be fighting ten or twenty enemies. We'll be fighting thousands of them since we'll be in their Empire. Enemies will attack us from all directions. Even the sky won't be safe," Lucifer replied.

"Let alone you, I believe that even I'll die there if I go there, but I have my healing, so I don't need to worry. You don't have my healing," he continued. 

"If you go alone, you think you can return safely? Aren't you underestimating them too much to be going with only two more people? I know I can keep myself safe. Let me come too. I won't be turned," Cassius said, desiring to come too. 

"No means no. My decision is final," Lucifer firmly stated. "But if you do want to believe me, there's another way you can help me."

"What way?" Cassius asked. 

"Go back to your home," Lucifer said.

"What?" Cassius exclaimed in shock. 

"You heard right. I want you to go back home, and I want you to steal more Limiters for me from the Academy," Lucifer stated. 

"What? How can I?" 

"Only you can since you're accommodated to that place. You're also a student in the Academy. Even if the academy is closed, you can easily get inside."

"I'm sure you have the needed resources. I personally wanted to go there, but I'm busy with Divine Empire. I need those Limiters for the Warlock Council. You think you can do it?" Lucifer asked. 

"I..." 

"Don't worry; you won't be going alone. I'll send Alicia with you. She can help you with this mission. The two of you can certainly pull it off. Unlike me, she isn't on the wanted list there, so it's going to be fine," Lucifer suggested, not letting Cassius refuse. 

"So, will you do it?" he asked.
