Chapter 621: Can't

"Is everything fine?" She asked Lucifer, who stepped out of the room. 

Lucifer simply nodded. "Nothing to worry about."

"You two shall also follow me," Joan told Milena and Arthur, not realizing that those two were the biggest enemies of theirs in disguise. All they had was the mask and some contact lenses, and the man couldn't recognize them as Nobles. 

Lucifer followed behind Joan, and the others remained behind him, wondering where they were going. 

Joan took all of them to the fifth floor, stopping before another unknown room. He brought a small card out of his pocket and placed them on the sensor. At the same time, he placed his thumb on a different sensor. After two different scans, the door opened. 

Joan turned back to Lucifer. "This is the identification card that all members are issued. Each card has a different set of Authorization, and they're needed to do everything, including opening doors. 

"Of course, just the card isn't enough. The fingerprint would also be needed. And at the time of sensing the fingerprint, the sensor also tests if the person is alive or dead so a stranger can't use the fingerprints," he continued as he stepped inside the room. 

Lucifer and his team also walked inside, observing. All they could see was a giant computer in the room and some machines. It was unclear what these were. 

"Since you three will be a part of us, we need to issue you these cards as well," Joan said, stopping before the computer. He turned it on. "Please stand before that black wall. We'll capture a picture for your identification card so it can be used to recognize you by the ones that haven't met you yet."

Lucifer lazily walked closer to the black wall and stood before it. After a short flash, an image was taken. Joan started pressing a few buttons on the keyboard, filling in the details. 

Even though Lucifer was a leader of the Warlock Council, he knew it was only temporary, so he kept the validity of this card low. After the validity date was reached, the card was going to stop working. 

He also kept the Authorizations low. Using these cards, Lucifer was allowed to open quite a lot of rooms, but Joan kept the access to import places away. 

He only gave him a little more access than any ordinary member and not as much as a true head received. In fact, Lucifer couldn't even open this room's door if he wanted to. 

"You can come back," Joan commanded. "We will need your fingerprints next. We'll feed them into the systems so you can open doors."

"Place your thumb on this sensor," he added, pointing towards a sensor near him. 

Lucifer looked weirdly at him. 

'This idiot doesn't know, does he?' he thought, frowning. 

In the back, Milena couldn't control her smile. 

"I can't give my fingerprint."

"Why? Do you think we'll misuse it?" Joan asked. "You saw me use my fingerprint, right? I'm just asking for that. Stop being so suspicious."

"No. What I meant was that I literally can't give my fingerprint," Lucifer responded. He took off his right glove and placed his bare finger on the table. 

As his finger touched the table, the table started decaying. He quickly took off his hand. "If I touch your machine, this is what will happen. So unless you want me to ruin your machine unintentionally, I can't give my fingerprint."

"This..." Joan rubbed his chin, frowning. "But how can we make do without fingerprints? Without that, we can't give you access to open any important place. You can only open and close hallways, lifts, and your own room. Is that alright?"

"You can give my access to her," Lucifer suggested, pointing towards Milena. She can take care of such things for me. 

"Unfortunately, I can't. That would be against the laws. I can only give her the access that she would've received otherwise," Joan responded. 

"What rooms would I be able to open as a special member that she can't as a normal member?" Lucifer asked. 

"Quite a lot. You would've been able to gain access to get to the top floor where all the Heads can go to relax and meet. However, we can't allow that to happen to your card without a fingerprint. If that was the case and you lost the card, it'd be a mess."

"Hope you understand. In case you need to go there, you can contact one of us to let you in," Joan responded. 

He shifted his focus back on the computer and stopped looking at Lucifer. After a few minutes, a card came out of the computer. 

"Here, this will be your identification and pass to enter your room. I'll show you your room later," he told Lucifer before turning around to Milena. "Moving on, you go and stand. Time to take your picture. Oh, and take off that mask. We need a face to make a card."

Milena looked at Lucifer, not moving. She couldn't take off the mask. She was sure that these people had seen her face in their briefings about her. If they saw it now, they would recognize her. 

"They can't take off the masks," Lucifer chimed in. 

"You mean you literally can't like you can't touch the sensor?" Joan asked. 

"Something like that. They've served me for a long time. We went through many battles together, and in one such battle, their faces were burnt badly. Since then, they've been wearing masks. So even if they took it off, you wouldn't see a face," Lucifer responded. 

"Sigh, this is so troublesome. One can't give fingerprints for cards while the other can't give facial recognition." Joan scratched the back of his head, frustrated. 

"Fine. Go and let me get pics in your mask. I'll handle the rest." As he just wanted to get it done with, he went along with it and didn't argue much. 

Milena walked to the black wall and got her image clicked before it was the turn of Arthur. The two of them have their fingerprints. 

"We're done here for the most part. Just one more thing."

Joan opened a drawer nearby and pulled out a couple of coats. 

"These are the official Warlock Council attire. You don't really have to wear them if you don't want to. However, your men will need to wear them if they want to roam around the Headquarters."

He handed the two coats to Milena and Arthur. 

"You can also wear it if you want. Your coat has a special identification. But if you don't want to, you can just place this badge near your chest. That would be enough.." Joan gave a different coat and a badge to Lucifer.
