Luciel just waited patiently for this person in front of him to answer. But to his dismay, Gideon just kept saying "well... Um... How do I begin". He got a little fed up and responded;
"Start from when the lights suddenly turned off"
"o-okay" Gideon took a deep breath and lets out his explanation:
"So what happened was that I got attacked by one of those creatures and Kaiden rescued me. He carried me somewhere and we hid there"
"Why did you have to hide?" Luciel leaned closer to Gideon to pry out the answer. The closeness made Gideon gulp in fear.
"Kaiden was... cursed"
"If Kaiden got cursed then I would have seen it. Cursed how?"
"He just got cursed... and the reason why he's okay is because I"
"You?"
"Absorbed his essence" He tried to make up a bullshit explanation as to why the two of them had to hide in the first place.
