"By Raia, do you mean Warlock King Raia?" Veracity asked, surprised. 

"Yeah. I invited him to the city. He should be here soon," Lucifer responded. 

​​

"By the way, are you sure you can catch his lies?" he inquired. 

"I can. I caught your father's lie once upon a time too. If it worked on him, it'd work on any Warlock King," Veracity replied, smiling. 

Lucifer grew surprised as he heard her words. 

"His lie? What did he lie about? And you met him?" he asked, frowning. 

"That's right. I met him once before. I think it was around nineteen years ago. So it should be before you were born," Veracity answered. 

"Before I was born? How old are you exactly?" Lucifer inquired, surprised. 

"You don't ask a lady her age," Veracity said, rolling her eyes. "Just know, I was twenty years old at that time."

"So you're thirty-nine. I must say, you don't look older than thirty. Not bad. I couldn't have guessed your real age," Cassius commented, calculating her age from the information she gave. 

"What did he lie about?" Lucifer asked, getting back to the topic. 

'It should be almost a year before my birth,' he thought. 

" I don't remember exactly, but it was something minor, I think. That's why I don't remember," Veracity answered. 

"Who did he lie to?" Lucifer inquired. "Do you remember that?"

"He was in a restaurant with your mother. He had lied about something at that time. Ah, I remember now!" Veracity suddenly exclaimed as if she had remembered. 

Lucifer had reached the main hall, immersed in the conversation. He sat on the couch. Veracity and the others also sat down.

"That's good. What was it?" Lucifer asked. 

"As I said, it was really minor. I was sitting nearby, so I managed to hear it. He had said that the food of this hotel was nothing in front of your mother's cooking and that her food was tastier," Veracity commented as she started chuckling. 

"I'm sure any husband would've told the same lie, though. But I must say, your father was really awesome. I asked him for an autograph when he was leaving, and he didn't say no," she continued. 

"Even your mother was the same. They didn't say no to anyone as long as they didn't have a reason to," she further added. 

"Of course, they were good. A little too good for their own good and bit stupid too," Lucifer scoffed as he shook his head. 

Tap... Tap...

Footsteps were suddenly heard coming from behind them. They all turned back to notice the maid. 

"Breakfast is prepared. It'll get cold," the maid reminded Lucifer and others. 

...

Back in the room, Ayn was still waiting. She had finished showering, and now she sat on the bed, looking at the clock. 


It was already eleven in the morning, and Lucifer wasn't back. She wondered if she was even going to get breakfast or not. 

She was more worried about the interrogation, which was to come later when Lucifer returned. 

She believed she was going to be put in a world of pain when that guy returned. She had already tried to avoid the interrogation, and after last night, she understood that Lucifer's patience should be running thin.

If she tried any trick again, she was going to be killed directly. She understood that. But that also made her turn serious.

"What can I even do? Can I just tell them the truth? Can I accept death? Death is fine but can I accept the torture without being able to resist? What if I told them the truth?" She wondered, frowning. 

"That's right. Even if I told them the truth, it wouldn't matter. It's not like they can even get close to the headquarters without being caught."

" And so what if they know the strength of APF? There is still the Hunter Union which would come to help."

"So even if I told them the truth, what can they even do? Why should I risk my life to protect something that won't have any effect on the ultimate outcome? I can tell him and save myself, and it won't harm APF either."

"That's right. I guess telling him is the best choice for now. I was delaying for no reason."

As she sat in the room alone and thought about it deeply, she realized that telling the truth was the best option. 

She started waiting for Lucifer's return as she was ready to tell the answers and be free. 

Time kept trickling away, but Lucifer didn't return. 

"When I didn't want to tell, he was standing above my head, and now that I'm ready to do it, he doesn't come? What is he even doing?"

Her wait became prolonged as another hour passed before she actually noticed the door open. 

Lucifer stepped inside with Veracity and Cassius.

"Are you ready to tell the truth?" he asked as he took a chair. 

"I'm prepared. Ask me whatever you want to ask," Ayn said calmly. 

"That's better. It looks like you understood. So, what's the strength of APF? How many Variants are there?" Lucifer asked. 

"We have seven hundred Variants that stay at the base. Fifty of them are Warlocks, and the rest are Sorcerers and Warriors," Ayn answered without hesitation. 

Lucifer glanced back at Veracity, who nodded. 

"Seven hundred Variants, that's not bad at all. How many of them are in the Alpha Squad?" Lucifer asked. 

"Forty Warlocks are in Alpha Squad. In total, they have seventy members," Ayn answered. 

"Forty Warlocks, huh. More than I expected, but not by much," Lucifer muttered, frowning. 

"What about your Beta Squad?" he asked. 

"We have nine Warlocks, including myself. And before you ask, the tenth one is in Delta Squad," Ayn answered.

"What are the security measures in the headquarters?" Lucifer asked. 

"There are cameras all around the base, so you can't even think about getting close without getting caught. There are also sensors in the surrounding, hidden at random places which trace any movement," Ayn explained. 

"We also have a radar which catches anything that comes close to the base, especially flying objects," she further said. 

"And even if you manage to get close to the base without getting caught, there's the entrance which only opens by retina scan of the APF members, and that too, only when they are alive," Ayn explained. 

"And if you landed on the roof, you'll still need to have your fingerprint registered in the system to be able to use the lift. So entering the base is impossible," she continued. 

"And if you still somehow managed to get in, without authorization, there are lasers placed in the hallway, hidden away. They'll slice you in half before you even realize where they came from," she further said, surprising Lucifer.
