966 Chapter 966: Before the Queen
Throughout his time on the Ship, Lucifer didn't leave his room. He just remained in his room, resting and trying to understand the new ability he had received from Licia.
The Space Domain skill was very powerful. If it was by earth's standards, he was sure it would've been considered an S Tier ability. He wanted to merge this ability with his Spatial Control to make both of them more powerful.
The two skills complement each other so well. Throughout his time inside the room, he kept trying to perfect his control of his new skill enough so he could use both of them simultaneously.
Lucifer only stopped his practice to eat and drink. Other than that, he didn't even stop.
He had killed Mander and was now the enemy of the Rasin Clan. Even though he was sure that the Rasin Clan wasn't going to kill him before the Queen so openly, but still he didn't want to rely on others. He wanted to protect himself with his own hands, even if it was against a General.
Even though the ship moved at a speed that should've been considered impossible by earth's standards, on the inside, it felt as if the ship wasn't even moving at all.
Occasionally, the old man came to Lucifer's room to see if he was doing fine, but he didn't spend much time there.
Presently, the old man once again came to Lucifer's room, but this time, he came to inform Lucifer that they were going to land soon. They were already at their destination.
"Right about time." Hearing the announcement, Lucifer stretched his arms. He had been training so much that his body was starting to feel lazy. He wanted to go out so bad.
Fortunately, he had already mastered both his abilities in the meantime. He wasn't sure if he could defeat a General now or not, but he was confident that even if he couldn't defeat them, he could at least fight on an equal field and ensure his own safety.
After a few hours, the ship finally landed. All the participants were allowed to leave the ship, where vehicles were already waiting for them to take them back to their factions.
The old man who handled the Trials was so cunning that he only informed all of them about their arrival at the last moment, making sure that Raasin Clan wasn't going to have gone to gather their forces here.
By now, he was already sure that the world of the trial was surrounded by their forces as they waited for Lucifer, not realizing how useless it was.
The old man personally escorted the top three participants in the Trial with him. He had already received permission for the audience from the queen herself.
Lucifer, Ron, and Raayi entered the car that was waiting for them. All three of them were told to enter the same car with the old man sitting in the front seat.
In the back seat, Lucifer was sitting on the left, Ron was on right, and Raayi had to sit in the center.
She was still quite upset that she couldn't win. She felt as if she had disappointed her Nimel Clan with her performance. She couldn't even get second place despite her confidence after all.
Initially, she blamed Lucifer and Ron for her bad result, but since then, she has had time to think about it.
She eventually realized that it wasn't their fault. If anything, she herself was to blame for her performance. She underestimated them, especially Lucifer. She never gave him credit, despite him proving again and again how capable and talented he was, even though he didn't come from a major family.
She glanced at Lucifer, who was looking out the window. From such closeness, she didn't know why but something seemed different about him. Now that she had stopped looking at him with anger, she could see that the man was very different from them, and not in a bad way.
Even after winning, he didn't show off before them. She had insulted him so much in the Trial. Why wasn't he insulting her back now that he had won? Not only that, he didn't look too happy even after his win. It was as if the victory wasn't his goal but just a step to reach his goal.
"You were really strong in the Trial. I was just lucky to win," Lucifer stated without even looking back. It was as if he could feel that she was looking at him.

"Nonsense. There is no luck in such things. You were strong and more capable than me. That's all there is to it," Raayi rolled her eyes.
Lucifer didn't answer. Honestly, he didn't feel much enmity toward Raayi. Even though she was quite arrogant, but that was to be expected since she came from such a family.
"Little Brother, don't forget that you promised to come to my Clan to rest after promotion. Don't forget to give me a lift in your new ship," Ron also chimed in.
"I'll make sure to give you a visit. I also want to learn more from your clan after all,"Lucifer smiled in response. Out of all three seeds, he had the most favorable feeling for Ron. He was no less than a friend for now.
Lucifer didn't know what Ron was going to do once he became an enemy of the Star Alliance. Was Ron going to hunt him as well? He wasn't sure of that. It didn't matter for now, though. That was all in the future.
"You should really be careful," Raayi said. "Even though you've won the trial, you've made a major clan your enemy by killing Mander. I'll try to get my clan to help you as well. With our two clans combined, I doubt they'll do anything, but still, it's better to be careful. Don't go anywhere alone from now on."
"You'll help me too?" Lucifer asked, somewhat surprised. "But why?"
Ron was like a friend, so it made sense that he wanted to help, but why Raayi?
Raayi rolled her eyes. "Don't think too much about it. I just don't want a major family to bully someone, as that'll spoil all our reputations."
Even though she gave such excuses, even she wasn't sure why she actually wanted to help Lucifer. She could only use such excuses.
"Little Brother, isn't it clear already? She has a crush on you," Ron said out loud, even though he knew that Raayi was sitting right next to.
"You!" Raayi punched Ron's shoulder. "If you don't want to be turned into a popsicle right now, shut your mouth! It's nothing like that!"
Ron wasn't scared of Raayi, and he had said that jokingly, but seeing her sudden uneasy reaction, even he was surprised. He wondered if it was really true. Was this girl really in love with him?
"Well, this is certainly an unexpected development." Ron smiled but didn't speak more.
Lucifer also didn't take his words seriously. He didn't believe someone like Raayi could fall for him. They hadn't even talked properly before. How was it even possible that she'll fall for someone like him?
"You're overthinking. There's no way," he stated. "Raayi is the Princess of the Nimel Clan."
Raayi didn't know what to say. Even she didn't know what it was, but for some reason, she was feeling really strange near Lucifer.
The Car stopped outside the Royal Castle. All three youngsters stepped out of the car with the old man.
"Her Majesty is already waiting inside. Some of the Generals will also be there. So mind your manners and don't speak anything unnecessary," the old man stated, but his warning was mostly for Lucifer b
Raayi and Ron were grandchildren of two Generals, so they didn't have to worry about much, but Lucifer didn't have a major backing after all.
"Mander's grandfather will also be inside. But he wouldn't dare attack you there. He'll certainly instigate you to find an excuse to kill you openly. So just maintain your calm. No matter what happen, don't do anything stupid. If you don't want to say anything, just stay silent, and I'll speak. Clear?"
The old man was quite concerned about Lucifer since it was the first time a family member of a General was killed in the trials, and that too in the hands of a so-called commoner. Fortunately, that commoner was the winner of the entire event, so it did give him some leverage, but not enough to offend a General.
Right now was the most important part, as Lucifer's safety depended on what happened next. If he could get the Queen's favor, that meant he would at least not have to worry about being killed openly. But if he failed and did something stupid, the Generals could easily kill him right there.
Lucifer was escorted inside the hall along with the other youngsters. Finally, he was going to be before the Queen once again!
