BAAAMMM!!
Lucifer fell into the ground, feeling pathetic that he was caught off guard in such a way! His wounds were still not regenerating either, infected with not just Miasma, but Corrupted Spiritual Energy, something different than the miasma which he could tolerate and absorb, which seemed to be burning him from the inside.
"Uurgh…!" He slowly stood up, gasping for air. "I can't believe that thing overpowered me…?! What am I even doing?! Maria would be so disappointed of me…"
"Lucifer! You have to snap out of it!" Said Jonathan. "I know it hurts… I really do! I also had to slay my friends, the children I helped grow into proper heroes, because they became so monstrous I could no longer recognize them anymore… If that dragon used to be your friend, it is no longer one! It has become cursed; it has been turned into a puppet… You have to free her!"
