Gard pressed his artifact against Aiden's chest and whispered, "Plunder the Lucifer Martial Spirit." His intent was clear—he aimed to steal something far superior to the White Sword Martial Spirit Aiden possessed. Why settle for less when he could have something as powerful as Lucifer's spirit?
As the book in his hand began to glow, Gard grinned maliciously. "It's coming... mine now," he muttered, his eyes gleaming with sadistic joy. Meanwhile, Aiden felt his soul being ripped apart. It wasn't the first time this had happened—Gemini had done it before—but the glow of the artifact was too strong, signaling that it was successfully tearing away his connection to Lucifer.
The book, forbidden and ancient, scoured Aiden's soul for the connection to Lucifer. Like all Martial Spirits, Lucifer was bound by a thin but unbreakable connection—normally impossible to sever by conventional means. However, this forbidden artifact was crafted for precisely this purpose: to steal it.
