The sun is now bright outside as it illuminates the walls of the diamond blue room. In it is Lucifer looking out the window, thinking of something and next to him is Azazel sitting on a chair in his obsidian black armor around his upper body and stopping at his shoulders. Azazel turns his head at a sound coming from the door and both of them are soon met with Buer still carrying Leviathan.

"I've returned, Lord Lucifer." Buer says, slightly out of breath.

"Good job, Lord Buer. You can rest now." He says to Buer and waves his hand, she then bows and leaves with Leviathan in hand.

"Lucifer, why keep someone as useless as Leviathan alive?" Azazel asks, resting his fist and head on a table next to him.

"Not a single person is useless, Azazel, everything has worked out in perfect plan thanks to you and we shall soon see the heavens fall at last." He replies with a deep sigh.

"I am worried, Lucifer, what if something goes wrong? You know god sees everything."

"God is dead, and i will kill him." Lucifer turns around and walks out, "you know the next step so there is no time to waste. Do not dissapoint."

Azazel nods with a look of determination while he also seeming to comtemplate something but quickly shakes the feeling off as he sets off. Meanwhile in the Jin estate, Ezra still stands face to face with Xuan Lei who is grinning slyly with his crimson eyes narrowed to the point they're almost like horizontal slits.

"i... I see... Great to meet you... But i'll have to talk to miss Yue now..." Ezra says, his look wary as he walks away from the man in green.

"Well, great to meet you as well, we will meet later!" Xuan Lei chuckles, taking note of Ezra's golden hair and tan skin, his grin growing wider.

"Say, Fa Jin, do you think we could take this boy with us to the capital?"

Fa Jin shakes his head, "that wouldn't do, Yue would never accept until he gets specific training here."

Xuan Lei's grin dissappears, "we could offer more and better training at the Everfall palace."

"Still no, my sister would never agree, she wants him to have specific training according to her regime."

Xuan Lei scoffs, "that sly vixen... She really must go against us in everything doesn't she... I want her dead so bad..."

"You know that is impossible, right?" Fa Jin chuckles at his obsurd ideas, "my sister could defeat you with her hands tied..." Xuan Lian turns his head away at that and simply excuses himself, quickly packing his bags and leaving in a hurry.

Ezra walks away with a slightly frightened expression but pauses when he bumps into Yue. Yue looks at him and chuckles, her white robes flow back as he hands go to her sides, holding a book.

"Ezra? What do you need?"

"Oh, um... I was thinking you could train me? Since Fa will probably take some time talking to the guy and i really need training..." Ezra looks at her with an annoyed expression.

"Me?" She laughs, "i can't train you, I'm not that strong in fighting." Ezra grumbles at that, "but i can convince Fa, come with me."

She walks to Fa who is still eating his food, "hey, finish faster, Ezra needs his training, if you keep eating like that you'll quickly get fat!" She scolds jokingly and turns to leave before remembering, "oh, and Ezra mentioned a man who you were speaking to, who was that?"

"Yes, just a high elder." He says and Yue's face turns sour and she nods before leaving, "Anyway, Ezra, i'll finish this and then we'll train, okay?"

Fa Jin hurries and finishes his food, leaving with Ezra outside to the empty training grounds. He places Ezra before a training dummy and hands him a sword. He shows him some techniques with a sword, the optimal stance and way to slash. Ezra then slowly begins to copy his movements effortlessly, almost as if he was born with a sword in hand.

"I really don't understand why Yue refuses to train you..." Fa scoffs, "she is probably in her room bed, reading her favorite book or something... I never understood that, what's so interesting about words on a paper?"

Ezra chuckles, "she told me she isn't good at fighting."

"Bullshit! She has been getting letters from the everfall court ever since she became head of the Jin clan!" Ezra simply stares at him in confusion.

"Yes, exactly! Although she specialises in healing spells she is one of the greatest if not the greatest healer in current times!"

"But how does that help in a fight?"

"don't underestimate her, she has no idea how to use weapons or any hand to hand combat but her abilities in spell casting are on par with the strongest High Elders in Archos."

Ezra looks shocked but before he can speak he hears footsteps, as they turn their heads at the sound's source they see Qiang. Qiang looks at his brother with a look of slight anger and Fa returns his anger.

"So you came back, brother." He says to Qiang who doesn't reply and merely glares, the tension in the air growing higher with every second.

Huan Lian then enters the main building of the estate and quickly goes to Yue for payment, she answers the knocks on her door and pays the agreed sum. He walks down the hallway to leave, walking past Helena who was going upstairs, she is in new robes that Yue provided, her earring back on her ears as she enters the room Yue had given to Ezra.

She walks to the bed and sees a letter, she stares at it and picks it up, she looks at the words written in black ink and her blood quickly runs cold, her eyes wide and face pale as she drops the note after reading the words, "from Belial."
