Chapter 677: Siding With The Wrong

"This is getting funny. You're making up a story and accusing me when you called for my help?" Xaen asked. "Return Lucifer this instant. He is the grandson of my friend. I must save him."

"Believe me or not, but I do want to save him," he continued. 

"I don't doubt that," Kellian replied. "I'm sure you want to save Lucifer, but only after taking everything from him, so he's not a threat to what you hold dear, isn't that right?"

Xaen rolled his eyes, turning to Cassius. "Cassius, tell your friend to stop talking nonsense and return Lucifer. His condition can deteriorate at any time. He needs help."

"You do know I'm strong enough to flatten this place if I wanted. Why would I waste so much time if I was here with ulterior motives? The only one with ulterior motives is this guy!" He pointed towards Kellian. 

"I-i don't know who is telling the truth." Cassius looked back and forth between Kellian and Xaen. 

It was true that Veracity could detect lies, so it was quite possible that she detected the lies of Xaen, and he was indeed lying. 

But it was also true that Veracity was with Kellian before coming here. If he made her lie, they were never going to do. She could be lying on Kellian's commands; who was the one with real ulterior motives?

It was very odd that Kellian was killed here, didn't before Lucifer came down with this condition. And after Lucifer was gone, Kellian came with Veracity? If it was a scheme, it was a very thorough scheme. 

"I think Master Xaen is telling the truth. Kellian, please return Lucifer. He truly did help us before. And if he wanted, he could've killed Lucifer anytime since he knew where Lucifer was. But he didn't do anything. I don't think he's that kind of person," Cassius said. 

"You are probably misunderstanding something. Bring Lucifer back," he added. 

"So you chose to trust the devil," Kellian muttered. "Anyone else here that wants to trust him?"

Salazar was also confused, but it was true that he trusted Kellian very little. Kellian has been involved with Uprising since the start. There was a good chance that Uprising was more important to him than Kellian. 

At the same time, he couldn't believe Xaen either. If it was true that Xaen had the plans of Uprising, then he was certainly going to know that Uprising wanted to conquer the world, which involved the island as well. 

There was no way Xaen was going to allow it. The biggest weapon of the Uprising was Lucifer Azarel. If Xaen could take Lucifer's powers, Uprising wasn't going to be a threat to anyone. So he certainly had a great motive. 

As for why he didn't kill everyone here, he believed there could be a good reason for that as well. 

Salazar also didn't know who to side with. He just stood in the middle. However, it was the Uprising which had made up their minds. 

The Uprising members stood behind Kellian, supporting him. Uprising was like a family, and Kellian was the oldest member of the family. They couldn't doubt him

Not only the Uprising, but the nobles also side with Milena. They had the benefit in keeping Lucifer like he was. Waking him up was counterproductive for them. So they stood beside Kellian as well.

"As much as I don't want to do this, but I think I'll have to believe Kellian on this," Milena said. "We don't need your help. Please leave."

Eve knew Xaen more than anyone else. If it was true that Xaen had the plans of Uprising, she was sure that Kellian was telling the truth about the rest. She believed he was here with ulterior motives to take advantage of the situation, but she still didn't know what she should do. 

If they let Xaen do what he wanted, Lucifer was going to wake up. There was a good chance of that. He was going to be very weak, but at least he was going to be alive. She could be with him again, and that was more important than anything. 

On the other hand, she also knew that this was going to make Lucifer really sad when he woke up. It was also going to alter his destiny. She didn't believe her happiness was more important than the future and happiness of Lucifer.

She also stood beside Kellian, taking a deep breath. "Please leave. We'll find some other way to help him. You can go."

Alicia also stood beside Lucifer. 

Ultimately, Salazar also chose to believe Kellian and walked to them. 

Entire Uprising and Noble forces stood before Xaen, who was only supported by Cassius. 

"You are making a mistake," Xaen told the small group. "You sure you want to do this?"

"We are sure. Leave this place this instant," Jiani said. 

"Why are you all doing this? Do you think Lucifer's life is less important than his abilities? I don't see any reason for Master Xaen to lie! Please return Lucifer!" Cassius declared. 

"He was happy in the Academy when he believed he only had one power! We'll keep him safe once again. If you don't want weak Lucifer, I'll take my friend back! Back to where his true home is! I am sure he won't interfere in your matters! Just let us have him!" he further stated. 

He had seen Lucifer when he was a kind boy who only had strength. He knew that Lucifer was still going to be special, even with one power. 

Moreover, he could also go back to his old life, far away from all this bloodshed. This wasn't an entirely bad future at all. 

"Cassius, you're siding with him?" Alicia asked. 

"I'm siding with what's best for Lucifer! And living his entire life in a limbo isn't best for him!" Cassius retorted. 

"You're siding with the right thing, Cassius. If we left Lucifer with him, he'd die. And his grandpa would be really angry. I don't want to see my friend upset. So I want to save your friend at any cost!" Xaen told Cassius. "Will you support me?"

"Support?" Cassius asked. 

"Yeah. If they don't return my friend's grandson, I'll take him back with force! If I need to become a villain to save him, I'll be one. But are you prepared to go against the people you worked with? If not, please step back," Xaen said as multiple Spatial Portals appeared around him. 

"I-" Cassius glanced at everyone he spent time with. Everyone treated him like a friend, but it was about Lucifer.. He didn't have the liberty to think.
