Choose One

Even at night, Insadong street tourism is still crowded. Yena sat in front of an outlet that had closed.

The girl's brow furrowed occasionally while her eyes looked gloomy.

"The reason why he is called Lucifer is because of his behavior that rivals that of a demon. Don't be fooled by his good attitude." Arion's words kept ringing.

"Come with me. I will treat you much better. Most importantly, I will not restrict your freedom, I will not treat you like a prisoner."

"Why... should I come with you? Do you want me too? Why?"

"You'll find out later. I'll give you a chance to choose carefully. Come to the Sanchon booth in Gwanhun-dong. I'll be waiting for you there. Of course, if you choose to return to Lucifer I will snatch you from him, in which case I can't guarantee he will survive. So you'd better turn yourself in nicely."

....

"Haa what should I do?" She grabbed her hair gently. She was very confused.

"Is he telling the truth about Lucifer? That's impossible!" Yena shook her head skeptically. Maybe Lucifer was cruel, maybe he had committed crimes in the past. However, Yena felt that what he had done to her all this time was not a charade. She could see the purity in his glowing eyes.

While Arion's intention is also not clear. Yena is confused, who should she trust?

"Whatever Arion wants, I'd better go see him first to make sure." Yena has already decided.

The girl had just gotten up and was about to leave when suddenly Lucifer's figure entered her view.

"Ah...." Yena was a bit surprised. Lucifer approached her with an expressionless look.

"Let's go home." He said without further ado.

"... even if you return The Yeouiju to him, he won't let you go. You will forever be his pet."

Arion's words echoed in her head. Yena looked closely at Lucifer. This man never gave room for compromise. Could it be that he really meant to keep herself as a pet?

"Why? What's wrong? Yeouiju isn't destroyed, why do you think that cheap pottery is a great Yeouiju? Now go back. You don't have to keep trying to run away anymore," said Lucifer.

"If... I return The Yeouiju to you, will you release me?"

Lucifer frowned slightly.

"Didn't I promise? If Yeouiju comes back then you will be free. Do you trust Arion more than me?"

Yena felt a little relieved. But she still has a burden in her heart.

"The reason why I'm cursed to be like this is because I've committed a crime. That's true. Apart from that whatever Arion says is just bullshit." Lucifer's eyes dimmed. His expression seemed to darken a little.

Yena saw a faint trace of pain on his face.

"I did... have committed a crime. After you find out are you going to look down on me? Shhh it's okay, I'm not really a good person. However, all this time I've treated you sincerely. Besides, I have no interest in keeping an ugly girl like you."

Yena could sense a very unpleasant feeling in Lucifer's tone. Her heart suddenly felt unwarranted sympathy, but hearing his last words Yena pulled back her sympathy.

"Although not nominated for the most beautiful woman in the world, my face is good enough." Yena denied Lucifer with a sullen face.

Lucifer only carved a short faint smile.

"So are you going to see Arion?"

"After you promised freedom how come I have no reason to choose him? Let's go, let's get your Yeouiju." Yena held out her hand. Lucifer smiled and clasped her hand.

"Lucifer, ah no, Lee Shan, may I call you Lee Shan?"

"No."

"Okay. Lucifer, you should smile more, it's better." Yena said while looking at Lucifer's bright face.

Hearing Yena, the man pulled the corners of his lips into the widest smile he had ever shown.

Yena's cheeks involuntarily warmed slightly. It was the most beautiful smile she had ever seen.

Meanwhile at a well-known quiet eatery on Insadong Street, Arion sat and enjoyed his vegetarian meal. A small bird flew in, perched on his shoulder, and whispered something.

A moment later a smile appeared on his gentle face.

"So she prefers that bastard? It's not wrong, haha ​​that boy is really good at attracting women's hearts. But in the end, he will be dumped. Do you believe it's, Chal? I will get him dumped myself."

....

lucifer and Yena have arrived at the hotel where Yena and Rumi are staying. However, unfortunately, Rumi had checked out a few days ago. Of course, all of Yena's belongings had also been brought.

"Rumi will return to her apartment. We have to go there." Yena said. She wasn't surprised, there was no way Rumi would stay in the hotel all the time. She is a student at a university in Seoul and has an apartment in Seoul.

Yena came to the hotel just to make sure that she had left the hotel. Now they have to go to his apartment. However, Rumi's apartment is quite far from Insadong.

They went by taxi to get there.

"Please hurry." Yena pleaded. Before she saw Yeouiju her heart felt very uneasy.

"Why so worried?" Lucifer said. He focused on a book in his hand. Yena did not know where the book came from. Could it be that this man always has books in his pocket?

"Of course I'm worried. Yeouiju isn't in our hands yet. Anything can happen, what if Arion comes again?" Yena said worriedly.

"Don't worry. He can't sense Yeouiju's presence."

"Yeah, maybe he won't find Yeouiju. But what if he finds us now? Things are going to be difficult--"

Ckiitt

The car they were in suddenly stopped.

Lucifer shifted his hat and smiled faintly.

"You're right. He found us."

Yena stunned.

"Unlucky ...."

"Th-that...." The taxi driver froze in shock.

Up ahead, Arion's frightful figure threw a smirk at Yena.

"Didn't I tell you that if you don't surrender voluntarily, then I… will take you by force."

Swoarrrr

Explosive red flames flashed from the front as fast as lightning.

The dragon continued to spit fire from its mouth without pause. Burning metal chain in front of him. within seconds the car had melted into thick metal.

However, it doesn't look like someone is melting in it.

"Fast!" Lucifer gripped Yena's hand tightly and carried her away as fast as he could. Arion had started chasing behind.

"Lee Shan...! GROARRR!!!"

RARRR

Dense flames erupted again from his mouth and shot toward the two people. As soon as the flames disappeared a group of blackbirds came from behind him and grabbed Arion's vision, overwhelming him.

"GROORR!!"
