Chereads / The Soul of Lucifer / Chapter 5 - Lady Minerva

Chapter 5 - Lady Minerva

Sun walked towards the golden table and was astonished by the architecture of the room.

The lady in front of him had midnight-black hair. A pair of arched eyebrows looked down on sweeping eyelashes. He could see a set of dazzling, white teeth as she smiled at him.

There was a silence between the two of them. Sun could only hear the fancy wall clock ticking.

Nobody said anything for a few seconds.

"Do you know what we do?", she broke the silence and asked Sun.

"Well ... protecting the city ?", Sun answered in an awfully strange voice.

In fact, nobody was sure of what the gangs are up to, but the receive such respects from the King of Esperia.

"Can you show me the power which resides within you?", Minerva asked with a smile on the face, but one could still feel the seriousness she put into those words.

Sun thought she might just want him to demonstrate his power and decide whether or not she should take him.

He saw no problem in it and summoned his black armor and wings back. The dark aura engulfed him again and the tattoo started to glow.

"The mark!

He has really gotten the power of the third... ", Minerva was prepared for this as she sensed the overwhelming power of Sun but despite that, she could be surprised.

The power of the third vanished one thousand years ago, to think it would reappear here and before her eyes. She got excited.

Meanwhile, Sun who now looked badass and cold was talking to Lucifer inside his mind.

"Bro, what's that little glass case inside your pocket?", Lucifer asked him.

It has been at least a thousand years since he came to the human realm. So he was astonished by the advances of the time.

"Ahem, it called "Smartphone", its used to talk to people ... ", Sun explained but was interrupted by Lucifer ...

"How? Does the person live in there or what?", Lucifer couldn* figure it out.

*Sigh*... Sun was speechless.

"I'll explain you the world when I get back home.", he said.

Simultaneously Minerva regained her composure.

"I see. Very impressive enhancement.

No wonder William couldn't beat you.", she stated.

"I like you boy ...

You will join the Spring gang. It'll benefit your family, I've researched your background."

"So fast. I thought I need to do some fighting or at least take some physical tests ...

This works so simply.", Sun was surprised and relieved as well.

Lady luck was on his side today.

"But since your about to enter the Magic School, you will train under my guidance and eventually become an excellent mage.", Minvera said and put on her lovely smile again.

Seeing her smiling Sun's heart skipped a bit. He had never encountered such a beautiful woman in his life.

The normal Ether girls in his class may have looked like human top models, but Minvera Eisenberg was on a whole different level.

"Well, now we've settled the formal things. I'll call William to get you an ID.

It will be infused into your blood so that you needn't worry about losing it."

"From now on, you may call me Minerva. Visit my office every day 8 PM. I'll teach you the fundamentals of cultivation. You need to get a better grasp of controlling your power.", Minerva said.

"Now, I'll leave you to William."

Sun deactivated his Demon Mode and walked towards the big door he came from.

Standing before the door, he stopped, turned around and bowed to Minerva before leaving.

As Sun Reed walked out, Minerva smiled and thought:

"He seems to be a good guy. It's too bad that fate brought him to this path.

I need to make him stronger ..."

She deliberately didn't tell Sun about being "the third". The prophecy didn't allow her, even if she wanted to.

She turned around and looked at the picture on her table. Doing so she took out a cigarette and a lighter.

On the outside, William got worried as Sun stayed longer than he anticipated.

...

The door opened and Sun came out and said:

"ID Please William"

William looked pleased.

"You got that, follow me!"

They started to walk. While walking William turned to Sun.

"By the way, call me Will. My friends call me by this.", he said and smiled.

William was about 20 years old and very muscular. His strong build was used as a catalyst for enhancing his Soul power.

"Call me Sun.", Sun replied and wondered about how his home walking turned out like this.

After a few minutes, they arrived in a laboratory.

There was a beautiful girl standing in the middle of the room.

Her black hair tied together to a ponytail. Her white suit made her slender figure stand out.

She was wearing a skirt which allowed her showing her pretty legs.

Will and Sun were both staring at her shamelessly.

"The Lady told me, come here and lay down so that I can put it into you.", she said and smiled at Sun.

Sun got back to reality and lay down.

"It might hurt a little bit.", the girl said still smiling at him and then punched him in the face.

It was a strong punch. Even Sun with the physical enhancement helplessly went down by the punch.

...

After he woke up, he saw Will looking strange.

He pointed towards the girl.

Sun turned around and saw an innocent looking girl cleaning a knife.

He was speechless and didn't comprehend what just happened.

"You're ready! See you next time!", the girl finished cleaning up the mess and told Sun about the ID.

"The ID is a special liquid which takes up 30% of your blood. It can't be recognized by normal sensors and enhances your recovering abilities. This is a special ID provided by the Spring gang.

Only members of the Spring gang possess such blood. It is also a way to identify yourself among our people.", she explained.

*ring*ring*

Sun's phone rang and it was his mother.

"Well, thank you for your "help". Will, how do I get out?", Sun asked.

It was already 11 PM and his mother certainly got worried about him. The streets are full of dangers at night after all.

"Sun, take the door next to this room and you'll be next to your home."

"Okay! Wait, how did you know where I live?"

"Nevermind that my friend. Get home safely!

Come here tomorrow.

Since it's still summer break ..."

Right. It's summer break. The school will start in the next week.

He turned 15, got his Soul activated, so he will be automatically transferred to a Magic school.

As for which school, he didn't know. It will be based on his abilities on the exam tests in five days.

"See you Will and ..."

"It's Rose", the girl said.

"Well then, see you guys!"

He walked out and pushed the door next to the laboratory open.

"Today happened too many things. I need to get home soon. Mom is calling again!"
