After the weird events that happened between Luck and his father, Luck started to feel like he was in the unknown again, if his father knew what his powers were and where they came from then so did UMP
Luck's power is oddly specific, most specifically his SMZ, even though he hadn't created them he knew he had them and in some occasions, he even knew the names of them, Luck knew something was wrong but didn't know what
And that brought him into a state of anxiety
"Hey Luck, you fought Abet, right? Did he say anything about me?" Caroline asked Luck while eating an only cheese toast
"I think he didn't even mention your name once, to be honest, my memory from yesterday isn't the best"
"Typical Abet, he envies me way too much, you see Abet is the least strongest sibling so he acts like he doesn't know us unless you mention our names, he then gets upset and curses you" Caroline said while she laughed
'The weakest? Him? Then how are we supposed to handle the strongest?' Luck thought after hearing what she had to say about her brother
"Now seriously what the hell is going on?" Caroline said with a straight face
"My brother attacked you for no reason and Lucifer visited you for no reason, Daniel also tried to attack Destiny. What is going on Luck? Is there something you are hiding from us?" Caroline said as she glared at Luck
It was the first time after months that Caroline glared at Luck in this way, it was a glare of anger
"We promised no more secrets right? Then you should believe me, plus maybe you are the ones that are hiding something! My father told me about my powers and how my golden mana is something unique, why didn't I know that from the others?"
Caroline looked shocked when she heard that
"G-Golden mana? Are sure?"
"I have seen it myself, this golden mana I have is not something normal, and judging by your reaction that is true"
Caroline suddenly got up and grabbed Luck by his shoulders
"Have you ever talked to her?" Caroline asked
"To whom?"
"The light spirit! If you can use golden mana that means you have become a vessel of the light spirit"
And with that Luck's unusual power source was revealed
"The l-light spirit? She is supposed to be that divine being right? What business does she have with me?" Luck asked confused
"The reason most bad people come to this island was because of this one rumor about a golden meteor that landed here, that golden meteor was suspected to be the light spirit, and after experiencing the incredible amount of mana that come out of the mana volcano and generally the mana in the air most of the world was certain that the golden spirit was here, that's why your island needed a defender, so it could defend it from strangers willing to destroy anything to get even a little amount of power from the light spirit, but seems like the vessel everyone was searching were YOU!" Caroline said in an enthusiastic tone
"Do the others know?" Luck asked
"Of course not! You never officially announced that you have golden mana!" Caroline said as she grabbed Luck by his wrist
"Come on slowpoke! We are going to the UMP base to tell the others! They will be ecstatic when they hear what we have to say"
"CAROLINE WAIT!" Luck yelled
Caroline suddenly stopped and turned around confused
"Why me? Why would a spirit from the story you mention bless me?"
"I don't know! Spirits have their own thought process, it probably saw what people are doing in order to free Skotos so the spirit decided to stop that in her own way"
Luck looked into Caroline's eyes
"You don't know anything right?" He asked
"Yep totally no idea!" Caroline replied with a pure smile
"Do you swear?" Luck said as he glared deeply into her soul
"Swear" Caroline replied as she too glared at Luck's eyes
"Alright! if you say so!" Luck said as he casually wore his shoes
The two of them then left Luck's house and went to the UMP base, where Gnomon was supposed to be and where they would have announced the news
"Will we announce this to the others too?" Luck asked as he held tight to Caroline
Caroline was flying to the base
"Don't worry! They will learn it eventually so why delay it?" Caroline told him
After some minutes of flying Caroline and Luck arrived at the base's location and requested to see Kamira in her office, there was not much work in the base, and that was kind of weird given the fact that Abet attacked the Biol yesterday
"Oh, I haven't seen you two together in a minute!"
Risha said as she saw Luck and Caroline sitting outside Kamira's office
"Good to see you too Risha! Want to come with us? We have something important to announce to Kamira!" Caroline said as she patted the empty seat next to her
Risha happily took it
"What happened?"
"No telling until we go in!"
Caroline told Risha, after that all of them remained silent until Kamira finally opened the door of her office
Her hair was a bit messy and her uniform wasn't properly ironed and it was clear she had black circles around her eyes
"Come in everyone! I'm sorry I was late..." She said as she slowly walked to her office chair
"What was the reason you requested to see me?" Kamira asked them
"It appears that Luck isn't simply a divine by chance, turns out he also is a vessel for the light spirit! Isn't that amazing news?" Caroline said with excitement
Kamira's sleepy eyes then quickly opened
"How do you know this?" Kamira asked loudly
"Luck's father told him...."
Once Caroline said that both Kamira, Risha, and herself took a moment to think about what was said, Luck's father wasn't a simple man that could text or call Luck, he was always the type to say it face to face and Kamira knew that
"Luck when did you see Lucifer?"
"Last night, he told me that and he also told me he has one of the SSS, the space one"
Kamira was very surprised to hear what she heard
"Wait now that I think about it seeing Lucifer isn't something normal! Why wasn't I surprised?" Caroline asked confused
"Because you are stupid!" Luck replied
"Did he do anything to you?" Risha asked with a worried expression on her face
"No, he kept his word to "Simply talk" he didn't do more than talk which I find weird..."
"Why is that?" Kamira asked
"If he wanted me to join him so hard then why didn't he force me back there when he had the chance? I didn't have mana to protect myself so he could easily kidnap me but he didn't, what is this old man thinking?"
For Luck, the great Lucifer wasn't so fearsome as the others made him be
"Lucifer the sinner! He is a man of great power that can rival that power of the sins not by force but by simple mind games, he has an affinity for Illusion and his power is hypnotizing, he can make you feel things you don't at times and disorient you in many ways, he also can manipulate what you see and what you hear making fighting him hard, but the thing that helps him overcome every foe is his two special skills, Dimensional Devour, this skill works like a SMZ but it's not! He can create a dream-like world around someone and control it to its fullest extent, a truly fearsome ability, and about his SMZ, we are unaware of that yet but it's listed to be equally powerful as his special ability which he doesn't like to use, probably of the after effect and secondly his most annoying power, we don't have a name for it but it's basically a conjured machine that grants him a set of powers which are unknown to us, but we are not even sure if this is how it works, this was just a report from one of our guys before he got murdered by Lucifer..."
Kamira explained to everyone, Kamira then look at Caroline and asked
"He was your boss once so you must know how powerful he was!"
Caroline thought for a moment and then replied
"That's true! He was certainly stronger than the rest of my family, if we fought I would surely be in trouble"
"But who would win in a fight?" Luck asked
Caroline chuckled and replied with a prideful smile
"That's a no-brainer! He would win"
The room was a bit quiet for a little, everyone knew that Caroline was strong and it wasn't any use for someone to tell them that but hearing Caroline say that Lucifer would win made everyone understand how much stronger he was than your usual person
"So... What are we going to do about the golden mana?" Luck timidly asked
"Do you have any control over it?" Risha asked
"No, but that one time I fought Daniel I faintly remember a golden glimpse of mana spark out of my hand and then I don't remember anything else, it's like my body gets possessed, but considering I'm a vessel of the light spirit makes more sense, I have also heard her talk to me, apparently the light spirit is a girl"
They seemed a bit curious about how it works so Luck explained in greater detail (He explained everything again with a more serious look)
"I see" They all said
"We don't have any clues to help you control this golden mana, for now, you will train so you can master your basic skills and we can worry about that later" Kamira said as she rubbed her eyes
"You are surprisingly sleepy today, why is that?" Risha kindly asked
"It looks like everyone was kind of sleepy today, neverminded that! In an hour I will announce to you some very important news so keep that in mind before leaving this office!"
Kamira said, she then dismissed everyone inside the office
…
It didn't take too long for people to start coming in the base for work and other stuff and with these people, Floga and Destiny also arrived with Gnomon accompanying them
"What did Kamira want to tell us?"
Gnomon asked Luck and Caroline, he also had black circles
"She wanted to tell us something, so since you are here I assume we can start" Luck replied
"You fought the sin of Envy right?" Floga asked Luck
"Yeah, what about it?"
"And you are this unharmed?" Floga sounded very upset when he asked that
"If Gnomon wasn't there I would have been dead," Luck said to calm Floga down
'What Luck said might be true, but I can't ignore the fact that when I came to rescue him Abet's whole body was already burned, and there is only one answer to who did it, that being Luck'
Gnomon said as he stared at Luck, he didn't know how but he knew Luck was stronger than he thought
Suddenly Kamira approached them
"Come to the meeting room" She said as she started walking to the room herself
Everyone else followed and once they entered they saw James Khora, the CEO of UMP
"Welcome everyone! I was informed by your boss here that you had something exciting to announce, so what is it Kamira?"
James asked this time he wasn't accompanied by his guards, and he was also in casual clothes
"I want to announce to you that OPERATION: BIOL will start in a week with us launching a sneak attack rather than waiting for them to come to us, any objections?"
Kamira asked, she had a very D E T E R M I N E D look in her eyes
"None by me, if that helps you then do whatever you want"
James casually said as he started walking outside the door
"Hey, Gnomon..." James said "Don't you ever lose to a sin again alright?"
Gnomon didn't say anything to him, he couldn't, James got out of the room and closed the door loudly
"Start training! You have to get ready for the next week" Kamira said
"YES MA'AM!" They all replied
"But before you go I will assign you, different teachers, you can't fight the same teacher every day and expect to grow, so from today you will go through every teacher of the elements, got it?"
Kamira said with a serious look on her face
They all agreed and went to train for this upcoming beast of an event...
