Lucifer placed his thumb on his jaw, easily showcasing his thinking mood. More like he was recalling something, maybe, trying to remember an event.
He gave a grumpy sound, echoing deep in his chest. Seconds passed with Lucifer trying to recall whatever he was trying to remember.
"Hmmmm, I'm not sure if I'm correct but,he did visit hell once. Though, that was sixteen years ago".
Lucifer spoke, his eyes resting on me.
"16 years ago?"
I subconsciously asked back.
"Yeah,16 years ago. Anything wrong?"
Lucifer raised his eyebrow.
I immediately kept quiet, taking my gaze to the red-rocky floor. My eyes were on the floor with my mind not quite in one place.
Lucifer telling me that my son had once visited hell could only point out that, the reason why my son wants to become a heartless monster could be connected to hell. My son had visited hell sixteen years ago,then that means he was at age six.
With such a realization, my eyes widened and fell back on Lucifer.
Lucifer had a confused look on his face, maybe, seeing my Stern gaze on him.
"So, what have you figured out and don't tell me your son's mess is connected to hell".
Lucifer asked, upon seeing my Stern gaze on him.
"I think it might be connected to hell".
I folded my arms as I smirked evenly.
Lucifer frowned, showing off his displeasure.
"I never wanted to involve myself and my territory with your son's mess. If he wants to become the monster you had once been,it doesn't concern me. Neither does it concern hell".
Lucifer had a fierce look on his face as he said those words.
I rolled my eyes not minding his fierceness.
"So what if hell is involved in my son's mess. It could be that Drake's need to become a monster might have started in hell".
I said with a matter of clarification.
Lucifer shook his head. "I doubt that. Don't think just because you sensed your son's aura in hell, that hell could be involved in your son's madness. You could have even been wrong, you know you've gotten quite weaker".
Lucifer teased,at the ending of his words.
I shook my head with dissatisfaction.
"Remember, I said something about me figuring out that something had happened to my son at the age of six".
Lucifer nodded. "I remember".
I smiled with a hint of mischievousness.
"Then you also said something of my son visiting hell, but that was sixteen years ago".
I said,still with a smile on my face.
Lucifer suddenly frowned, maybe out of impatience.
"What are you driving at, Sandraino?"
Lucifer spoke, also still frowning.
I smiled, knowing quite well that whatever I was about to say was the best part.
"If my son had visited hell sixteen years ago then that means, he was at the age of six. And I had earlier spoke of something that had happened to Drake at age six. From my instincts, that surely should correspond".
I grinned widely, waiting patiently to see the shocked look on Lucifer's face.
Though, I didn't really see a shocked look on his face but quite a calm one. It somehow left me disappointed.
However, Lucifer kept quiet. From his calm eyes, I could see that he was processing all that I had said. Not to lie,he was suddenly calm. But as sudden and shocking as it came, he smiled. His Perfect dimples shown as he smiled.
"Not bad. You are a lot smart".
He said as his smile disappeared immediately.
I hissed.
"You bet I am".
Lucifer shook his head and immediately,a serious look lay on his face.
"Okay, now that it seems hell is actually involved in why your son wants to become a heartless monster, what do you wanna do?"
Lucifer said.
He immediately signaled to me to follow him as he walked round the whole pit of hell, filled with tormented souls. I did just that. Nevertheless, demons from the pit of hell that came across us, did well to give way as I and my twin brother strolled round the pit of hell.
"Right now , I'm going to find out why Drake wants to kill his heart. If I can find out why he wants to become a monster,then, I will try to find a solution before he becomes a monster. Peradventure he becomes a monster, I'm afraid that I won't be able to stop him. Even the heavens would be afraid of him. Just like the way I was or even more than I was. That's why I have to stop him from becoming the monster I had once been".
"So, what clues have you gathered that can point out why your son wants to kill his heart? Don't tell me that all those lame meetings you have been having with those weaklings of a subordinates haven't been able to give a clue about your son's madness".
Lucifer chuckled lightly at his words.
I stopped walking making Lucifer to stop as well. He turned back to me giving me a raised eyebrow. Seems he has some habit of raising his eyebrows.
"For now, I only have there clues on why Drake wants to kill his heart".
I said with a sigh.
"Then you are far from finding out why your son wants to be the past you. That works for me".
Lucifer said with a chuckle. I couldn't help but sigh while shaking my head.
@@@
After a lengthy talk with Lucifer,my twin brother,who I haven't seen in such a long time, I decided to return back to my castle. We had ended our catch-up talk a lot well and not to lie, Lucifer could actually be a great company sometimes.
Let's all just forget about his cunning and tactical character, he could be a scammer sometimes, but he is a lot fun to talk to. It's one of the reasons why his mate, Delilah fell in love with him
Also, I had sternly invited Lucifer to join my other subordinates on our meeting the next day. At first, he had bluntly refused as usual. But with a harsh order from the devil,for sure, every stubborn mountain must be moved.
He reluctantly decided to obey and join the meeting. But that's not my problem.
For too long, I have been giving him privileges of not attending my meetings with my subordinates, because he was my brother, but this time, he must attend.
The demon Lords along with Legion,they all would be shocked to see Lucifer attending the meeting.
But anyways,now I know that Drake had visited hell at the age of six (thanks to Lucifer and Drake's faint aura), I am slowly and steadily trying to find out what had happened to Drake when he was age six.
For now, I have been able to gather three clues. Which subsequently are;
I know that something had happened to Drake at age six.
He had actually visited hell which only means that whatever happened to him, happened to him in hell and at age six.
It seems his scared of something and that something is increasing his need to be evil.
So far, this are the only clues I have gathered. I just which that I find out whatever had happened to my son at age six, before he kills his heart.

Flying down from the dark sky, I landed in front of the gates of the devil's castle.
Actually, I was back from the realm of hell and just arriving at my castle. I had took more than half of the day, chatting and talking with my brother.
In front of the gate of my castle were two giants. These giants were handsome and they had wings. They both could make themselves small if they wanted but they both prefer to be big to intimidate Intruders. They were castle guards and these castle guards were fallen angels.
Not having time to answer their greetings, I walked into the large compound of the castle, through the opened gate of the devil's castle.
I looked up at the castle and I couldn't help but say. "Home sweet home".
I hadn't gone far when an arrow came flying at me and I didn't have the time to dodge.
