"W-who…" Lucifer gulped as the memories of the man who raised him appeared in his mind.
Juin slowly turned around and walked towards Lucifer. He raised a hand and touched Lucifer's face, and for a split second, Lucifer felt that he could feel the familiar warmth.
"F-Father… Is… Is that you?"
He was confused. How could his father, who passed away in Alercane, appeared in front of him. Lucifer was sure that he was not under any illusion, yet he saw his father in Juin. That did not make any sense to him. Even if Juin was the vessel of him and Hades, there was no way he could even bring out a trace of his father.
So… How?
"You must be Lucifer…" Juin smiled. His smile and the look in his eyes were gentle and warm, which were nothing like how he used to look at Lucifer. "I'm glad… You have grown up well…"
"H-How…?"
