He brought everyone back to the Marvel Universe and settled Venom, Kara, and Damian.
After they were settled, Qinuo came to Lucifer's dreamlike courtyard.
Mezikeen brought out some fruits, and Xiao Mo was mixing drinks.
Qinuo finally truly relaxed. Although he didn't fight God, the oppressive feeling of facing a supreme being of a World still made him feel pressured.
"Thinking about it now, I'm still a bit scared," Qinuo said with a bitter smile, frowning slightly.
Lucifer looked at him like this and found it somewhat amusing, the corner of his mouth curving slightly upward.
Qinuo's doubts remained unresolved, and he couldn't help but ask, "What exactly did You mean when You said to stay in the DC Universe and become God?"
"The literal meaning, God wants You to inherit his position."
Lucifer took the wine glass Xiao Mo handed him and drank it in one gulp.
"Why me? And what exactly does God want to do?"
Qinuo was full of questions. He also picked up a glass of wine, took a small sip, and tried to calm himself down to think.
"Because You are unique,"
Lucifer put down the wine glass, and his eyes became profound.
"Once Father leaves the DC Universe, all reality will instantly lose its logical fulcrum. This is like deleting the core code of an operating system; the entire World will fall into endless chaos and collapse.
So, he needs You to replace him and stabilize the situation. As for what he wants to do, he probably wants to save the DC World."
"What happened to the World?"
"It's going to be destroyed, not just the DC Universe, but the Marvel Universe too."
But Lucifer seemed very relaxed.
"How much longer?"
Qinuo asked gravely.
"About 96,976 years."
"…"
With so much time left, Qinuo relaxed. There was still plenty of time. When the sky falls, there are two tall people to hold it up. What is there to fear?
"So God and OAA plan to solve it together, leaving the two Worlds to me temporarily?"
Suddenly inheriting two huge legacies, Qinuo was surprisingly calm.
"If we can't solve it, You'll need to take the two Worlds and run. That's what You're best at."
"You're going too? What kind of crisis can't God and OAA together handle?"
Qinuo was stunned.
"Hmm, not sure. All gods and demons must go, but as long as the two Worlds are still there, we have a chance to resurrect, so…"
"So You were lying to me from the beginning. Leaving DC was fake, escaping God was fake, and helping me wasn't out of kindness, but just to make me take the DC World away."
Qinuo interrupted Lucifer's next words and looked at her calmly.
Lucifer's drinking motion paused. She put down the wine glass and met his gaze directly.
"Yes."
Crack!
The wine glass in his hand was crushed.
Qinuo just glanced down and calmly cleared the fragments from his hand.
"I understand. At the critical moment, I will take the two Worlds and leave. Also, I still owe You a life, and this is for You."
A familiar bracelet was placed on the table, and Qinuo's figure had already disappeared.
Lucifer picked up the bracelet and gently rubbed it. The demons inside were all gone, leaving only a Hell.
Qinuo came to the rooftop of the Demon Group and sat alone on the edge of the rooftop.
He quietly looked at the bustling city view and the vast, boundless sky before him. At this moment, he finally understood why some people used to like coming to rooftops when they were troubled.
Because when You look up at the sky, its vastness makes You involuntarily feel that your so-called troubles are so tiny, like a drop in the ocean.
"Why did I return the bracelet?"
Qinuo began to regret it shortly after leaving.
Although Lucifer's help to him might have been purposeful, it was undeniable that she had indeed helped him a lot.
Perhaps behind her seemingly deceptive actions lay unspeakable difficulties.
"And aren't You a Fallen Angel? Was it that hard to lie to me? I'm actually very easy to deceive."
Qinuo couldn't help but complain to himself, his voice gently drifting in the wind.
"Very easy to deceive. Is this lovesickness, Demon King?"
A teasing voice suddenly came from behind him. Qinuo knew without turning around that it was Tony.
"Who's lovesick? I'm already annoyed. Don't make me turn You into a woman."
Qinuo said without looking back, a hint of impatience in his tone.
The next second, an arm gently rested on his shoulder, and Tony had already settled down beside Qinuo.
"What's bothering You? Tell Tony Teacher. Tony Teacher is an emotional expert, You know."
Tony was all smiles, trying to cheer Qinuo up.
Qinuo hesitated, then slowly said, "I have a friend…"
"Hahahahaha, what friend of yours? It's just You… Alright, alright, let's talk about your friend."
Seeing the murderous intent flash in Qinuo's eyes, Tony quickly shut up, knowing better than to tease further.
"…I was deceived by a woman who had always helped me and saved me many times.
Although I never had any improper thoughts about her and only considered her a good friend, I still felt a little upset after knowing she deceived me."
Qinuo said helplessly.
"Okay, let's not talk about what she deceived You about. Is she pretty?" Tony asked.
"Very beautiful, she should be the most beautiful woman." God's masterpiece.
"You like her."
"No, I don't. Wait, I do, as a friend."
"Alright, Qinuo, I don't know if what You're saying is true or false. If a man considers a beautiful girl just a friend, there's only one possibility.
She made You feel inferior. The gap in your identities and powers is too great, or perhaps she was already very powerful when You weren't, leaving You with a feeling of not daring to offend her."
Tony also confirmed who the woman Qinuo was talking about was.
"Hmm, You guessed right, Lucifer."
Qinuo nodded, recounted what had happened earlier, and then asked, "What should I do? I want to go back and talk, apologize or something, but I'm also a bit unwilling. I didn't do anything wrong, why should I be the one to initiate?"
"Because You liked her first."
Tony gently patted Qinuo's shoulder. Just that one sentence, like a key, instantly unlocked all of Qinuo's doubts.
"Qinuo, trust me, a man's dignity is only necessary when facing outsiders. When facing the person You like and your family, it's worthless.
Anyway, I've said what I needed to say. How You act is up to You."
Tony left. He had only come up to check on Qinuo because he was curious why he had been on the rooftop for so long.
Qinuo disappeared from the rooftop and arrived at a bar, which was the entrance to Lucifer's courtyard. He pushed open the door.
"Lucifer, I…"
His eyes widened. What greeted him was not the White courtyard, but a long-abandoned bar.
Lucifer had left.
