While Lucas waited for his master's subordinates to arrive, he trained a little with Arch because he didn't have anything else to do. He had no fighting experience, so he had to learn by fighting someone like Arch. It might not completely help him, but it will give him an idea of how he should fight, fight back, defend, counter, withdraw, and everything else that has to do with fighting someone who is hostile to you.
He had no idea where he could find enemies or people, but since he was still alive, he might as well take this seriously. He hadn't had the opportunity to do it on Earth in a long time, but now it was possible. He only had to say "let's do it," and they'd be off to training. That's all there is to it.
Since accepting Arch as his master, Lucas has grown to respect him when he listens to his advice and lectures him on the things he does wrong. It made him happy to know that there was someone out there who could teach him the ways of a warrior. Someone powerful enough to live in peace here. He aspired to be someone like Arch.
A simple man with incredible abilities who can kill someone with the flick of his fingers. Lucas was well aware that Arch didn't use any power and even held back when fighting him. He was well aware that he was far too frail to sustain such injuries. He was afraid of going insane from all the pain, so he declined his master's request to use a few of his powers.
He now had a goal that he wanted to achieve -
Forcing his master to use his abilities
It was as simple as that, but it piqued his interest.
His master was both serious and kind. At least to Lucas, because he is Arch's first disciple. He can't possibly be treating his disciple as if he were a slave or something.
....
"All right, let's call it a day." His lord turned and walked to his throne. He sat down on it and returned his gaze to the perplexed Lucas.
"They've arrived."
"!!" He was startled and stood up, thinking it would be impolite to greet them in this manner. He was not afraid of anything, but rather eager to meet people other than his master. It had been a long time since they had met, so he had grown accustomed to his master being the only one nearby.
But that was about to change. His ostensibly violent subordinates would arrive because Arch had summoned them, despite the fact that Lucas clearly did not want this. What a shame.
Rumble rumble
The plateau began to rumble out of nowhere, as if an earthquake was on its way. He started looking around to see if they were already there, but he couldn't find them. He looked up and saw ten silhouettes standing next to each other.
Gulp
He felt sweat droplets on his face and tried to wipe them away. This backfired on him because his hands were now drenched in sweat, which he tried to wipe away. How bad can things get?
They started descending near Lucas as if they could defy gravity itself. He just stood there staring at them, waiting for them to land.
Because of his anxiety, he believed he couldn't get it away unless he felt pain. Yes. Pain. He reasoned that the pain would help him forget about it for a while because it was far worse than feeling anxious. He started digging his nails into his hands. As he continued to stare at the silhouettes above him, blood began to drip on the ground.
"Ugh.." He was in excruciating pain and desperately wanted to stop it, but he couldn't. He couldn't do it unless he calmed down. He felt he had no choice but to harm himself because he was anxious.
They were almost there when a strong wind blew up in his face as they touched down. It was as if power lingered around them, and the moment anyone got too close, they'd be blown away by the extreme force.
As they stood on the floor, huge cracks appeared on the plateau. It was as if the plateau couldn't withstand their destructive powers. It's a good thing it didn't break or anything. Despite the fact that there were only huge cracks, it was still frightening.
Because the cracks had formed, a layer of dust had formed around them. They were no longer discernible. Lucas couldn't see very well and tried to clear away the bothersome dust in front of him.
Whoosh
He dragged them away with the element of air because he didn't want to wait any longer or the anxiety would kill him.
He could finally see their faces. There appeared to be 5 women and 5 men figures in front of him. With everyone being different from one another. Hair, eyes, body, length, clothing, and expression are all different. It looked strange because Lucas assumed they were similar.
'Did he never see them before, or what?' They don't look anything like I imagined they would.'
He began sweating as they stood there because they appeared extremely serious, which creeped him out. Especially one woman with a strange smile on her face. She had beautiful red hair that reached her waist and scarlet red eyes that could both frighten and make someone's day.
She appeared to be interested in Lucas and began to walk towards him, a seductive smile on her lovely face. She was dressed sensually, with black shorts that didn't exactly conceal her black thong underneath. Her white shirt, which had her belly open, allowed others to see her smooth skin. She also had a lollypop in her mouth, which she was constantly playing with inside her mouth.
Lucas wanted to greet her when she got close enough, but he was distracted by the soft lips on his mouth. He was being kissed by a woman!
Her tongue entered his mouth and began to play with his tongue. He didn't know what to feel or think because he felt good when he was kissed by a beautiful woman like her. He enjoyed how rough she was with his tongue. It was as if he were the girl and she was the man.
That is a peculiar situation!
She backed away after a quick kiss and licked her entire mouth dry. Lucas didn't see her lollypop but felt it in his mouth, which he hadn't seen or felt before. That's strange.
"Keep 'em," She smiled at him again and made a seductive motion in which she kissed her palm and blew it toward him, indicating a blown kiss.
He was still perplexed as to why she did it, but he didn't mind at all. He looked at her silently and noticed that she had a big ass. He followed it despite the fact that it was moving too quickly as if he couldn't take his gaze away from her.
He was overjoyed at the prospect of kissing such a lovely woman as her. He considered himself fortunate to have received his first kiss after death. He had his first kiss on Earth, but he died before it could happen. It has technically been reset. He'd just gotten his 'first' kiss.
....
Right?
To get back to where he was, he quickly shook his head and slapped his face.
Right.
He was attending a meeting with his master's subordinates. He then pretended to forget what he had just witnessed and began questioning the subordinates. They piqued his interest. But they all turned around at the same time and began walking away from him.
He was perplexed as to why they had walked away, but he said nothing and simply followed behind them.
They were heading in the direction of Arch. They knelt down when they were face to face with Arch, one leg on the ground and the other supporting their hands.
"We salute the Lord." Says a man with a stern expression. This man was all the way to the right of where they were kneeling in front of Arch.
He looked up and made eye contact with Arch, asking to speak, and received a simple nod from him before beginning to speak.
"May we inquire, my lord, as to why you have brought us here?" He inquired in a respectful tone.
This man's name was Atyss, and he was their leader. He was a purple-scaled dragon, but he was now in human form, so he had short black hair with purple on the front. He had a solemn expression on his face that seemed to lack nothing. He was a tall man, about 187 cm tall, with a broad chest and biceps. He appeared to be the most physically fit of the group. From Lucas' perspective, Atyss may appear to be a gym freak, but he is actually very reliable in battle and always seems to have good strategies.
A man who could be relied on.
"I wanted you guys to meet someone. This man is not your average person. No. He is my pupil." He grinned at them, waiting to see their shocked expressions because they were all very serious about their jobs and life itself.
Gasp
They were all taken aback. They had so many questions, such as why and how and when and why this, why that. All of this was lingering in their minds at the time because they couldn't understand what their Lord had just said. They weren't sure how to react to their lord's first pupil because they knew how he was. They've known him for thousands of years, which isn't much given his actual age, but they've been together for a long time and had a good idea of how this man was.
Lazy.
A lazy man with nothing to do in his spare time who also possesses enormous power, knowledge, experience, techniques, gems, wealth, and scrolls that almost every being desired. People remarked on how fortunate he was. But if they knew he was wasting his time like this, staring into the infinite void all the time, they'd be furious and might even wage war against him to get some valuables from him.
But this isn't going to be easy to take away from him.
They all wished for it, but all they could do was wait until he died and they could finally take everything he had. This individual is extremely dangerous. He may appear to be a normal man, but if he becomes angry or annoyed by something, make a mental note to flee. He wouldn't forgive anyone unless they made a sacrifice equal to making him angry in return.
There weren't many things in the world that could match his worth, but if there were, they'd only get a warning. Such as murdering their entire family, torturing him, stealing all of his wealth, or simply throwing him into the infinite void for many years. This is similar to torture, but the difference is that you gradually lose your sanity because you can see nothing but darkness ahead of you and can do nothing but wait until you can get out.
If they didn't, their entire kingdom or empire would be destroyed, all of their people tortured and then painfully killed, everything would be burned away, dangerous beasts would roam their kingdom or empire, their big bosses would be thrown into the infinite void for the rest of their lives, and so many other things Arch would consider a sacrifice. Not that any of this was sufficient.
He was conceited. He is a God, so he is naturally arrogant. He is proud of himself for not allowing people to simply run over him. If they did, they had to pay with whatever they had, and if it wasn't enough, they had to sacrifice even more. He would keep it until his pride said it was enough, at which point he would let it go and vanish.
It's never enough for him when people dismiss him as an idiot, but he can't just kill everyone in the world or something. That would only enrage other Gods, and he might die if they all attacked him at the same time.
---
They all looked to their leader, Atyss, who said he needed to find out who it was. They were very curious about who this 'man' was to whom their Lord was referring. They want to meet him and see if he's strong enough to be Arch's first disciple.
"He's right behind you. Take a look, "With his index finger, he indicated their back. They all looked behind them at the same time and saw a man standing there in a simple black kimono.
Lucas was nervous when they landed, but now that they were staring at him, he was even more nervous. When their gazes locked on him, drippings of sweat began to fall down his brow as he became concerned.
He also noticed the red-haired woman looking at him with an even more seductive smile, and she continued to lick her lips and giggle with her hand before her mouth every time they made eye contact.
The woman couldn't take it any longer and dashed toward Lucas.
'Oh no..'
