Chapter 740: I Must

A grunt left his lips as he stabbed his chest. Even though he only made a light noise, Milena heard it and stopped talking. 

"Are you alright?"

"I'm done. Continue talking. You were talking about reading. What books have you read recently?"

"Ah, it was by a writer who goes with the Alias Spirit. His books are really fascinating. In his latest book, he talked about..."

Even though Lucifer had his eyes closed and was more focused on the core, he didn't forget to listen to Milena since he didn't want the connection to be broken after so long. 

His fingers soon reached closer to the Time core, which was resting near his heart. 

He tried teleporting the core outside by touching it, but teleportation didn't work on it. Instead, he just let his decay destroy the core, but as soon as the slightest decay started working, everything turned white. 

When everything returned to normal, Lucifer was standing. He was completely dressed, still standing on the bridge. 

The phone once again started ringing. He let out a tired sigh. 

"Not again..."

"So I must keep talking to the other person, or the loop resets. At the same time, if I try to influence the core, the loop resets. I'm thoroughly trapped, aren't I?"

He picked the call. 

"Milena, listen to me carefully..."

"There you are. Look, I am near the stone you needed, but it's with someone named Jestor..."

Hearing the same response, he clenched his fist in frustration. He had almost memorized the response by now. 

"He claims to know me. He says he'll only give you the stone if I talk to him." He finished the sentence of Milena. 

"Huh? Can you see the future now as well? How did you know what I was going to say? Or are you spying on me?" Milena asked, taken aback. 

"As I said, you should listen to me carefully. I know what you're about to say because we already had this talk many times. I'm stuck in a time loop because of an ability I took from Julien."

"After our conversation, I'm sent back in time to the moment you dialed my number. I've been living these few minutes again and again."

"And the only way I can stretch the time where I'm not sent to the beginning is by talking to others. So you can't disconnect the call at any cost until I find a solution."

"That sounds so crazy. Are you sure you aren't pulling my leg?"

"I don't need to pull your leg. I already told you this before, but time reset, and you don't know anything. Anyways, last time we talked, you told me you last read the book of some writer who goes by the alias of Spirit."

"This... You're making me below you, but this sounds so crazy. You're stock in the loop? I don't know how I would react if I were in your place," Milena let out, smiling wryly. 

"I'll find a way out. Until then, I'm going to need your help. So make sure the call isn't disconnected. You understand?"

"I will make sure. Anyways, what about when you sleep? Won't you go back in time?"

"I don't need to sleep that often. I can stay up until I find a way out. And you're a Noble, so you can do the same. That's why you're the perfect candidate to talk to."

"It might take days or even weeks to find solutions. What can we even talk about for so long?"

"As I said before, it can be anything. You can even talk pure nonsense. It should work as long as you're connected to me and know what's happening."

"I understand. I'll help you."

"Good. Now put the phone on speaker. I'll talk to Jestor. Take the stone from him and go straight to Zeston. The capital can be attacked anytime. They'll need you there.'

"It's on speaker now. You can speak."

"Hey, Jestor. It's been so long since I talked to you. How have you been since the last time we met? Still going around threatening youngsters?" Lucifer asked.

As he started talking, he started flying towards the city. 

"Hey, you know it was a misunderstanding. In any case, I don't do that now. Anyways, how have you been? Did you find a wife for yourself and your friend? Or are you still chasing away Vixens?" Jestor asked, laughing. 

"Well, what can I say? Chasing away Vixens seems to be in my destiny. You won't believe who I met just a few days ago?"

"Who?"

"That same vixen who was after my Fa- I mean after my friend. It looks like she got her wish and married a strong Warlock."

"You met her? That's amusing. Let me guess; the meeting didn't go well. Did he tell her husband to beat you up?"

"I can't say that she didn't try. She went all out."

"Poor woman. Since you're still talking here, I suppose you taught them a lesson? Don't tell me you killed them?"

"Kill? I haven't killed a single person in my entire life. I'm the nicest person you can find on this earth," Lucifer responded. 

Cough~

Milena was drinking water while keeping the phone on speaker when she heard Lucifer's words. As soon as she heard the words, she almost choked on the water as she started coughing. 

"That's true. I think you're not half bad. You threatened people on the ship as well, but you didn't kill anyone."

"Exactly. You know me so well," Lucifer replied, smiling. 

Since he was supposed to talk, he decided to keep himself distracted and keep things amusing for himself. 

At the same time, Milena looked at Jestor as if she was looking at an idiot. 

"If only you had an idea," she muttered in a barely audible voice. 

"Anyways, it's really nice to talk to you, old friend. However, as you can imagine, a nice person like me has many enemies."

" I can't have Milena out of the city since it's without defense at the moment. I'm also out of the city on business, so it's completely defenseless. Can you give the stone to her so she can return to her post?"

"Consider it done. In any case, the stone is just a nice ornament for me. It's nothing special." Jestor took off his necklace and gave it to Milena. "Here."

Milana took the stone. 

"That's right. I got it," Milena said, confirming that she received it. 

"Good, Now Milena, go straight to the airport and return. Kellian needs you.. Be there as fast as you can."
