Where there's a will there's a way

Lucifer's whole body was shivering not because of fear but mostly because of the freezing air. Lucifer also thought If the entrance itself was so mind-boggling then what would be inside the pyramid but he soon calmed down and gave a dry laugh,

"hehe Ceasar buddy I have had enough fun with this new V.R. game you wanted to show off, can I go back now…common man I agree it's cool and all but its scary as fuck man….hey Ceasar u there..."

Whooo! The sound of cold wind gushing by…

"Arghh Ceasar you motherpucking fiss of shit******(Few Hours Later), Just wait for me to come back alive I will make sure to bury your entire ship."

Lucifer started panting in anger and gritted his teeth with a fierce gaze he shouted,

"Alright bring it on!"

Lucifer then started taking long strides towards the pyramidal entrance.

Only After reaching the base did he came to know how wide the base of pyramid was almost reaching up to a km in length but the thing disturbing him right now was that there was a blanket of lava continuously flowing down if one wanted to enter into the pyramid he or she had to get showered through the hot lava.

Lucifer started searching for hints. He threw some ice-rocks he picked up fallen here and there through the lava but without any surprise they got melted right away before they could even cross.

Lucifer after going through many such failed attempts sat down in meditation, after spending some time he had noticed that the environment here was vastly beneficial for mental state. His mind was crystal clear.

Lucifer started recalling each and every slight detail he had seen so far so as to find out a solution through some clues.

Time passed by an hour, 2 hours, 4 hours …

Lucifer was searching through streams of memories without any break he had gone so far as to remember everything he had experienced so far every obstacle in his life he had overcome. And suddenly a flashback came forward.

A boy of hardly 10 to 12 years was brandishing a wooden sword on a huge boulder. He kept on repeating the action relentlessly. After almost a thousand or so attempts a crack sound echoed on the grassland where the boulder was placed. The wooden sword had shattered into pieces.

Followed by a hearty laugh, a heavily bearded old man with worn out grey robes and lush white hair was sitting and watching the youngster.

Lucifer had a strong feeling that the youngster was himself but he couldn't confirm it. His childhood memories had always been blurry whenever he tried to remember so he never knew how he looked when he was younger.

The young boy listening the mocking laughter berated angrily,

"you old geezer how the hell am I supposed to break stone with a shitty wooden sword"

The Old man rolled his eyes and spoke in a lecturing tone,

"Brat am not asking you to break stone with wood am asking you to break it with your will power, remember the 'sword of will can' cut though anything"

After which the old man picked up a leaf and threw it gently towards the boulder.

....bang!

The shoulder was cut into two parts and both parts hit the ground creating a loud noise.

And the memory faded away while Lucifer suddenly opened his eyes in enlightenment…..

"Sword of will can cut through anything ...then hammer of will can crush anything….bullet of will to penetrate anything ….its..its not the tool that's important it's the power of will that is.."

Suddenly Lucifer's eyes brightened he exhaled heavily and recollected his thoughts,

"If I want to go then no one can stop me, because my will is to go through"

Lucifer then unhesitatingly stepped towards the Blanket of Lava and shockingly it moved apart the entire stream of lava flowing from right above the tower moved apart. The almost a metre wide and 10 metre long curtain of lava was moving apart as Lucifer went through it.

But the shocking thing was that Lucifer didn't show any signs of surprise because his will was absolute their was no doubt in his heart whether the lava will move or not. He had never doubted the outcome from the get-go rather his will was so strong that he made the lava itself move.

A smirk came across his face as he passed through it. Earlier there was always the dread of death in his heart but now a feeling of exhilaration had started to grow in his mind.
