Chapter 29: ...act?
Chapter 29: ...act?
"Wait!" Velma shouted out loud as she started walking towards Lucifer.
Of course, due to her identity, the crowd of demons in this room was looking at her.
After all, this was the first time that she showed such a reaction.
Even the examiner was looking at her even though he should be just minding his own business now.
After all, the examiner had the job of guiding the students to their respective exams.
Well, his work would be easy as the students were now sorted.
Besides, the fact that the princess took an interest in someone was enough of an excuse for this examiner.
It was then that Velma finally reached Lucifer as she stood right in front of him.
She then spoke as she looked viciously at Lucifer.
"What did you say your name was?!"
This was the first thing that came out of her mouth, and that was why various demons started murmuring.
"What is it? Is he the princess' secret lover or something?"
"There's no way! That name is probably one of the criminals lurking around here."
"Well, there are some..."
Murmurs from all around started to take place, and it all resounded out in this place.

Of course, even Velma could hear that, but she didn't care about that.
After all, she was curious about what Lucifer said.
Of course, Lucifer was just...raging in silence.
'How dare this woman talk to me this way!' He thought as his veins were bulging around his eyes.
Even his smooth skin on his hand started to turn rough as he squeezed his fist!
After all, it was just disrespectful, and Lucifer didn't care about the reason at all!
What's more, this situation was truly bad for Lucifer as he was getting attention from all around!
In all sense, this was the worst-case scenario for Lucifer. Even the examiner didn't plan to stop this event.
That was why Lucifer was just raging in silence. He didn't even know what to do.
Should he answer this woman? Should he just kill her? How should he control this situation?
No matter what his answer, Lucifer could not see an outcome where he would still be...a common student.
He would be marked as the student who caught the princess' attention, and that would be spread all over the kingdom.
Although Lucifer knew that this kingdom was small, he still didn't underestimate the influence of the princess.
After all, Lucifer once suffered from that in the past.
That was why Lucifer started to think quickly as he tried to find answers to this situation.
And the best answer that Lucifer could find was...
"Y-yes? Princess! I'm so honored to talk to you! My name is Lucis Ferre!" Lucifer said as he turned all chummy with Velma.
This was the answer that Lucifer deemed to be the best. Of course, beneath that chummy attitude, Lucifer's demons were lurking.
'This woman better play along with me! If she doesn't, I'm gonna make her regret this day!'
Of course, that was just Lucifer's thoughts and he didn't dare voice them out as he spoke once more.
"Is there a problem with my name, princess? Say it at once, and I will change my name!"
Lucifer said and he then started to walk towards the tower. In other words, he started to walk towards the examiner.
"Mr. examiner! Please change my name! It seems like the princess doesn't like my name!"
"I feel sorry for her! She has done so many things for this kingdom, and I don't want to pain her with my name!"
Lucifer said as he thought that the best way to finish this is through exaggeration.
Of course, he was right as Velma started to act up as how he expected.
"Wait! I didn't mean it to be that way!" Velma said as she ran up to Lucifer who was right in front of the tower.
She wanted to stop Lucifer as he basically has the power to taint her name.
Well, it was her fault considering that she just went up to Lucifer.
Lucifer was a Hell God, and he knew how to play games with a kingdom's royalty.
He knew what would make them embarrassed, and the best way is to taint their name.
Of course, Lucifer didn't plan to dig deep as he would get caught up in it.
It was then that Lucifer decided to finish it once and for all.
He raised up his right arm in an...exaggerated way as he bent his back!
It was as if he were dancing, and he just stayed in that position as he spoke once more.
"Oh no! Does the princess love someone who has the same name as me!?"
"It was too foolish of me to have this name! It is a curse! I must abstain from using this name again!"
"Oh, Mr. Examiner! Please change my name to nothing!"
"I want to be nothing so that the princess wouldn't be able to remember my shameless name ever again!"
And as soon as the examiner heard those words, a chuckle came out.
"Pfft!"
After all, the way Lucifer said those words were just...cringeworthy.
There's no need to even mention the crowd of demons as they all had awkward smiles on their faces.
After all, they didn't want to laugh when this was something connected to the princess.
However, things soon came to an end as the guards of the princess came out.
"You, examiner! Guide the students to their respective exams!" One of the guards said.
"Go! What do you think you are doing here?! Go now!" One of the guards said as he pushed the students away.
Of course, the leader of the guards also showed up, but he was right in front of Lucifer.
The leader of the guards had quite the conflicted look on his face.
After all, he knew who Lucifer was, and he knew that...he was from Luciferian Empire.
That was why he didn't want to mess with him! However, the honor of the princess is on the line.
The leader of the guards then spoke as he threatened Lucifer with his sword.
"Stop the act now, or we will be forced to kill you!"
