‘I feel dizzy.’

Gi-Gyu’s head spun, and his vision was blurry. His consciousness cleared a while later, and he weakly opened his eyes. As his vision returned, he discovered someone was cradling him. Then, an abrupt stream of screams slammed into his ears.

 “Ackkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Lucifer’s here!”

“Where is our guild master?!”

When Gi-Gyu managed to look around, he saw a black flame engulfing the screaming players. 

‘Iron Guild? Then where are the other players…?’

To his shock, a giant black flame was sweeping through the Iron Guild members and various other random players. Nothing that stood in its way came out alive.

‘Black flame!’

This was Lucifer's signature move. When she became a high ranker, she obtained her own unique ability, this black flame. And this flame was also why she got the moniker Lucifer.

'I knew Marking wasn’t her unique ability.’

While being tortured by Ironshield, Gi-Gyu deduced Soo-Jung was Lucifer. Ironshield’s description of Lucifer wasn’t exactly the same, but he got a strong feeling that Ironshield was talking about the young girl he was traveling with. Add to that suspicion, all the things that made no sense about Soo-Jung, and you would get Lucifer. 

So first, Lucifer toyed with Gi-Gyu; then, he got himself captured by another high ranker. But, he didn’t resent Lucifer one bit for it.

It might be nothing, but maybe a part of why he didn’t detest Lucifer was that she...
