"Are you satisfied with my answers?" Eve asked, smiling. "I think I covered everything the best I could. There shouldn't be any room for doubt anymore."
Lucifer rubbed the back of his neck, observing the lady. Her words did make sense to some extent. That could also be why the academy didn't know about her. She was buried by the Royals.
"So you've been with me most of my life," Lucifer commented.
"More or less," the lady replied.
"In the dream, you talked about something else. Like where I'm from and my real name. What was that about then? It seems you know more about me than myself. So tell me. What's my real identity?" Lucifer asked.
"You remember that as well. Oh man, that's going to be hard." Eve looked elsewhere.
"Are you answering or not? What is it that you know about me that I don't?" Lucifer asked, taking a step closer to her.
"There are many such things. I mean, I was with your father before you. So I honestly saw some really weird things. It made me learn more about this world than I would have learned otherwise."
"Like what? Tell me clearly!" Lucifer said firmly.
"I don't think you're ready to hear that right now. If I told you, it might affect your path. What if I tell you after everything is over?" Eve asleep.
A lightning sword appeared in Lucifer's hand. His figure flickered, and he appeared right in front of Eve. His sword rested close to her neck.
Just a little movement, and the sword would have stabbed her.
"You won't be alive by then if you don't tell me now," he warned her. "Since you've been accompanying me for so long, I'm sure you know about my limited patience with things."
Eve glanced at the sword in Lucifer's hands. "That sword isn't half bad. But it can't be compared to the sword which you had when you were found."
"Sword I had? What do you mean?" Lucifer asked.
"Fine. I guess I'll start from the beginning. Since you want to know so bad, I'll tell you everything I know about you. Can you lower this sword now?" She asked.
Lucifer lowered the sword, which disappeared. He stepped back.
"You may speak."
"Well, as I already told you. My body shut down when I was poisoned. And I was trapped in the dream world. I spent a couple of days observing the person who had poisoned me, wondering if someone would wake me up."
"Albeit, that didn't happen. That person buried me in the middle of nowhere. I was sure I wasn't going to wake up anytime soon, so I decided to live my life the next best way..."
"Through the eyes of others." Lucifer finished the sentence of Eve.
"Exactly. I traveled all around the world, watching a myriad of things. In the end, I ended up with your parents."
"When did that happen?" Lucifer asked.
"Don't worry. By the time I finish, the timeline will be clear to you," Eve responded. "So, where was I? Ah, yeah. I ended up in Elisium."
As she talked, she also started walking in the direction of the village where Lucifer was staying inside.
Lucifer walked beside her. "Then?"
"They were about to enter a newly discovered dungeon. And I decided to tag along to watch the live action," Eve replied. "I must say, they were pretty strong. Even though I hate violence and don't appreciate it, there was just a different kind of beauty in their battles."
"How can I describe it better... Ah, let's say your battles are chaotic. You are pretty dominant in battles and think about destroying the enemy as fast as you can. That's a good thing, but sometimes you use a bit too much strength when you don't need to."
"On the contrary, your parents had a more artistic battle style. They also had incredible strength, but it was as if they didn't want to end battles too fast. They tried to enjoy the fights."
"Enjoy the fights?" Lucifer asked. "What does that... mean?"
"Yep. That would be correct. They tried to enjoy the battles. They talked to each other in the middle of battles, joked around about the enemies, and a whole lot more. It was somewhat funny as well. And flirting, oh god! Even I was embarrassed watching them flirt in the middle of battles."
"Fun in the middle of battles..." Lucifer muttered, rubbing his chin. It was pretty interesting to know that. He had always thought that his parents fought with more dominance.
"Yeah. It didn't look like a particularly hard battle for them. They easily cleared the Dungeon and reached the end of it."
"That's it?" Lucifer asked. He thought there was a point to the story? There didn't seem to be any. They entered a dungeon and cleared it. Why was she wasting his time by telling this?
"That's what I said as well," Eve replied, smiling. "I was disappointed as well. I thought there would be more powerful enemies and more challenging beasts, but it was pretty smooth sailing."
"Tell me more about myself, and don't waste my time like that. Get straight to the point," Lucifer reminded Eve, who seemed to not get the point.
"Will you let me finish first?" Eve responded. "I thought the dungeon exploration ended. And I was about to leave to find someone else who could be more interesting to observe. However, that's when something happened."
"It was your mother who said something... Which made me stop."
"What did she say?"
"She said she could hear someone crying," Eve answered. "She had some good senses. She said she could hear some crying from the other end of the wall."
"Weren't they at a dead end already?" Lucifer asked.
"Hahahaha, that's what your father asked as well. But your mother was adamant that she could hear the sound of crying from the other end. So guess what your father did?" Eve asked.
"He destroyed the dead end with his strength," Lucifer took a guess.
"Pretty much," Eve said. "He destroyed the dead end. And it appeared that your mother was right. There was another path behind the wall. And it wasn't a dead end."
Lucifer didn't intervene and kept hearing carefully.
"Your parents tread through the new path to find a new room at the end. That new room's discovery by your parents started this entire story."
"What was in the room?" Lucifer asked grimly.
"Who was inside that room?" Eve asked as well. "The answer is right in front of my eyes."
Lucifer observed Eve looking in his direction.
