Chapter 699: Folklore

"Even I'm not sure about that. What you described certainly seems complicated as it deals with the laws of nature and the entire reality," Eve explained. "But I think I have a theory about how it could've happened."

"What theory?" Lucifer asked. 

"The first question is about your mother. If you hadn't gone back, what would have happened to her. There's a chance that she would've been killed, and you would be never found to be able to go back. However, I believe that she would have survived even without you," Eve answered. 

"When you went back in time, I believe you changed some incidents there, like delaying your mother's meeting and obstructing her in the mansion as well."

"Maybe without your presence, they would've taken Ramian hostage and escaped instead of ending up before the Variant, unable to move."

"If that were the case, it would explain some things. The core events like your mother offending the Asade family would have happened in any case, I think. The only difference would've been your father's presence there."

"But that doesn't matter. If Jian planned the death of your mother, she certainly wasn't going to leave your father to find and kill him in revenge. So that would explain how things happened in the past without your interference."

"I think it's wrong to say that your parents died because of you. The more accurate way would be to say that it was an absolute event in time. Your presence there did twist some things, but overall, most of the outcomes remained the same."

"So it's not my fault that they died?" Lucifer asked, frowning. He didn't know why, but he felt slightly relieved to hear that. The thought that he killed them weighed really heavily in his mind. 

He was trying to distract his thoughts by acting different, but now he was slightly relieved. He was also conflicted though. 

It was good that his parents didn't die because of him, but it was also true that they did die, and he couldn't change the past.

"Is there a way I could've stopped their deaths?" he asked.

Despite asking, he already knew that the answer was yes. If he knew these things before, he could've easily kept his mother away from the Asade castle.

"I'm not sure if you could've," Eve answered. Even your travel to the past didn't change the absolute event. So I doubt you could've done something that would've been significant. If not this, then something else would've happened."

"I suppose it was all in the destiny which no one could change. It's best to try to forget that event," she continued, sighing. 

"Destiny..." Lucifer muttered. He glanced out of the helicopter. "Who makes these destinies."

"This..." Eve didn't know what to say. In the end, she just said what she heard religious people say. 

"God makes destinies. It's beyond us mortals to have a say. We can just try to do the best we can to fulfill our destiny."

"Gods?" Lucifer asked, frowning. "They are just folklore that weak humans use to satiate their fear of the unknown."

"There are no gods."

"Maybe, or maybe not," Eve replied, shaking her head. 

The helicopter landed at the airport. Lucifer opened the doors and stepped out of the helicopter. 

Eve also stepped out after him. "The weather seems bad right now. Is it good to take a flight in this weather?"

She felt cold winds brushing against her skin and a sky that was covered in rainy clouds. 

"It's going to be alright. The more we stay here, the worse it might get," Lucifer responded without stopping.

He walked to the plane that was waiting for them, being led by the staff. 

The pilot was already waiting for them inside the plane, along with some air hostesses.

"You stay here. I'll be back after changing," he told Eve before going to the changing cabin with the bag in his hand. 

Inside the cabin, he opened the bag and started taking out the clothes that were prepared by Kane for him. 

Inside the bag, he found a black jeans along with a black shirt which had a lion insignia on the pocket. 

He wore both before taking out the last thing, which looked like an ordinary overcoat. 

The overcoat came to his knees, but it was a bit shorter than what he was used to wearing previously. Also, the cost was slightly thicker than what he was wearing before. 

One thing he was sure about though. The current attire made him look more like a businessman. A small briefcase was also lying at the bottom of the bag. 

He picked up the briefcase and walked to the seats. 

"Here!" Eve stood up, giving Lucifer the seat beside her. 

Lucifer ignored the seat she was giving and sat on the other side near the window seat. 

"This doesn't look half bad either." Eve swiftly switched seats, taking the seat beside Lucifer.

"You look good in the new clothes by the way. Like a rich CEO going on a business trip with a briefcase filled with cash."

"What's in the bag by the way?"

"No idea," Lucifer replied. "It's password locked. I don't know the password."

"Did you try Zero Zero Zero Zero?"

"Kane isn't a child to keep that password." Lucifer rolled his eyes. 

He brought his glasses and wore them. He contacted Kane directly. 

"Little Boss, what's up." Kane's happy voice came from the other end as soon as the call was picked up. 

"I opened the bag you sent me. Tell me what's special about these clothes."

"Honestly, the clothes aren't much different than what you wore before. They're all made from Cardigan Particles like before."

"The only difference would be in the coat that you wear on top."

"What's the difference there?" Lucifer asked. "Other than the thickness."

"Actually, the thickness is the change indeed. But there was a reason behind it. It can now absorb twice the destructive energy particles before letting something reach your body."

"Moreover, there's one more thing."

"Look at the inner pocket of the coat."

Lucifer grabbed his right collar and checked the inner pocket. 

The coat was grey on the inside and had the same exterior on the inside as the outside, but it had something really intriguing. On the pocket, a strange pattern was carved. 

"Is that what I think it is?" Lucifer asked.

"Yep. All thanks to our friends at the Warlock Council. The data we were able to decipher so far gave us some really important information.. And that's used in your jacket as well."
