Chapter 552 - 552: Not At Awesome

"Phoenix Clan?" Lucifer muttered as he observed the building outside. The mansion looked good, but it had a different vibe than the Snow Wolf Clan Mansion.

The last mansion was very inviting even though it looked cold. It wasn't intimidating at all.

On the contrary, this mansion was completely different. It was as if this place was much different. He didn't even feel like going to the mansion just because of the strange vibe he was getting from here.

Just as he was observing the mansion, he noticed a figure looking outside from the window.

'Amelia?' He recognized the person as the lady he had seen just last night. Moreover, the carriage of the Golden Crow Clan wasn't here now. It looked like they had left.

"Not as awesome as our mansion, right?" Yui asked.

Hun nodded. "It won't last for long. After the girl here is married, the mother would probably leave too, and some other clan will take over the land of the Phoenix Clan."

"Why does your clan want their lands? I mean, don't you have enough land already?" Lucifer asked, curious. He could understand if it was about taking out an enemy, but after the enemy was gone, what was the need to do it?

"Honestly, even I'm not sure about it. I think it's because none of the clans get together. Since they don't want other clans to take over the resources of the Phoenix Clan, they try to take it for them. It might be the same for our clan as well. As you heard it from uncles, they want to prepare for that even now," Hun explained.

"That's understandable as well. To stop the other side from becoming stronger, you want to go ahead first," Salazar let out, understanding.

"Exactly," Hun added.

"Can I ask you about something regarding the Phoenix Clan?" Lucifer asked.

"Sure. I think I have a decent amount of knowledge regarding them since they've been living in this city for a long time," Hun responded.

"What are the strengths of the Phoenixes?"

"Their strength? I would say it's fire. Just like our strength is ice," Hun replied.

"Anything else other than fire?" Lucifer asked. "Something like poison? Or anything unorthodox?"

"Hmm? Poison? I don't think there's anything like that. In any case, why would they use poison? That's such a scummy method to attack the enemy. I don't think any High Beast would be so shameless."

"Anyway, why are you asking about that? Did you hear something about it?"

"It's nothing," Lucifer muttered, shaking his head.

He observed his hand, which he had used to save Amelia from falling. What was that if not poison? His hand had turned completely green.

He was sure that it was something related to poison. But then again, it didn't look like Amelia was trying to kill him. If she wanted, she could've gone all out.

Moreover, if it was because of touch, then why was it that his hand was affected even when he was wearing the gloves? His gloves had touched her hand only. It was something really odd.

Yui noticed him looking at his hand. She also noticed his black gloves.

"Those gloves, do you always wear them?"

"Yeah."

Yui wondered if it was because his hand had some wound or something that he didn't want others to see. Why else did he always wear gloves? It couldn't be that he felt cold since it was clear that his friends were affected by the cold more, and even they weren't wearing gloves.

"Is there any reason?" She asked.

"There's no special reason. I just like wearing them," Lucifer casually replied.

Jenilia also started wondering about it now. She had seen him wearing the gloves every time she met him. She wondered what the true reason was.

"We're almost there. Just a little more, and we'll be at our destination."

"Brother, why didn't we show him the beasts closest to our home? I mean, why did we come so far? Aren't we just wasting his time?"

"Not really. I am just trying to be as useful as I can. There are actually five beasts that were Summoned from the city. However, there's only one that was Summoned recently. All the others weren't summoned in months. So it's better to show him this one," Hun explained.

Since Lucifer wanted a beast that could help him get home, he wanted to meet the one that was summoned regularly. It was a waste to meet the beast that was summoned a long time ago and never again.

As Hun said, he was just following the wishes of Lucifer.

"Ah, that's good then," Yui let out.

The white carriage soon stopped before what looked like an ordinary house in the city.

"We're here." Hun opened his side of the door and stepped out. Lucifer also opened his side of the door, leaving the carriage. The others also followed him.

Not a single one of them had any idea that there was one person who was keeping an eye on them from a distance, making sure he wasn't seen.

It was a beast that had been keeping an eye on the Snow Clan Mansion since the morning. As soon as he saw Lucifer leave, he started following the carriage as well.

"Is this the house?" Lucifer asked. The house looked much like an ordinary house that was used by Beastkins, but it didn't appear to be one that could be used by wild beasts.

That was one thing that had made him suspicious. From what he knew about Summoning, no one was able to summon a humanoid beast. At least amongst the people he knew, there was none. It was the same as how Summoners weren't able to summon high Beasts.

The strength and skills which was needed to summon a humanoid beast were too much. Even Zhu hadn't been able to summon one. So the fact that this beast was so often summoned, it was making Lucifer suspicious.

Just who was the person on earth that was able to summon humanoid beasts without the news spreading to the other humans? He was also suspicious if this beast was actually summoned to earth or another world with strong Summoners.

He didn't want to take the risk only to end up in a different world which could be even worse than being here. In this world, he could at least find a beast that could take him to earth, but what was he going to do in another world? How was he going to find a way back?

He had decided to make sure that this beast was summoned to earth before deciding anything else.
