"Also, Jestor. Thanks a lot. Now that I know where you live, I'll certainly come to thank you personally someday."
...
Lucifer kept talking to Milena even after she left Jestor.
Before long, he finally reached the capital city, feeling a bit hungry.
People saw him and recognized him. There was not a single person who I didn't recognize. People ran away from him as if he was a monster. The crowded road became instantly empty.
"Do I hear screams?" Milena asked Lucifer over the call.
"Yeah, some people are running away from me, it seems."
"Should I ask what you did there? You're already so popular?"
"I did what I had to do to bring out a rat from hiding."
"You mean Xaen?"
Yeah. I almost had him, but he ran away at the last moment because of some interruptions."
"Won't he stay away from you if he ran away last time? And you're popular; he can always know where you are."
