Using this method, Lucifer was hitting two birds in one stone. He was not only killing an enemy using his power of decay, but he was also replenishing the energy that he had spent.
He had only recently found out that when he used his Decay Powers on beings. This way, he could gain some energy, effectively replenishing the energy he lost in battle.
He had also realized that decaying dead beings gave much less energy than decaying living beings.
"You shall be the one dying," Lucifer let out in a gritty tone as he saw the dying body of Drai that seemed like a skeleton. Not even a few seconds had passed since he started using his power on him.
Drai tried resisting, but nothing worked. He couldn't escape death. He had come here to defeat Lucifer and help his vice-captain, but in the end, he only ended up helping Lucifer by helping him recover.
Soon, Drai's body turned to ash and mixed with the water lying on the concrete road.
After dealing with Drai, Lucifer started walking towards the direction where he saw Flourance fly.
He soon stepped out of the whirlwind.
As he looked around, he soon found out the location of the person he was after. He could see Flourance, who stood in front of other delta squad members.
"I must say that I underestimated your strength but so what? You are just a bastard who has a few strengths? So what? One person's strength can't defeat everyone else."
"Didn't your father have strength as well? Still, he died like a weakling, didn't he? Hah, we thought he was strong, but he was just as useless as you."
Flourance started laughing as he mocked Lucifer, trying to make him even crazier so that he wouldn't understand their scheme.
"I… will… kill you all!" Lucifer roared like a wounded beast as he started flying towards Flourance without waiting for even a second.
'Hah, come, kid. Come! Please show me your craziness. As soon as you get here… it will be your end,' Flourance thought as he saw Lucifer flying towards him like a crazy beast.
Enraged at the words of Flourance, Lucifer dashed towards them. He didn't care what his future entailed, but at the moment, he only wished to slaughter everyone that stood in his way.
His feet barely touched the ground as he moved, making him seem like he was really flying. His feet did occasionally touch the ground as he used his strength to increase his momentum even more.
While he ran, he collected electricity in his body before he fired another lightning bolt towards Flourance, which was followed by one more bolt. Similarly, he kept shooting more and more lightning bolts simultaneously.
At the moment, more than five lightning bolts were flying towards Flourance.
One after another, all-black lightning bolts reached Flourance. The same thing happened once again. The lightning bolts passed through him without hurting him at all.
"Hah, that idiot really thinks that his puny attacks can harm the Vice-Captain."
"He is really an idiot. After all this time, he still hadn't realized that it is impossible to harm him because of his ability."
The Delta Squad members laughed as they saw the futile efforts to harm Flourance.
"Mae, Lu, show him what you are capable of. Enrage him even more," Flourance muttered softly with a faint smile on his face.
'He has gone crazy in anger, but that doesn't mean he can't come out of it. Anything can happen. Until he gets to Spot zero, we must keep him enraged,' he thought.
"Yes, Vice-Captain."
The two variants answered at the same time.
"Vice- Cap, should I use my powers as well?" Another person asked Flourance.
Flourance shook his head slowly. "No, your powers are related to gravity. Even though it won't work on him, it can make him slower. We don't want to make him slower. The faster he gets here, the faster we can finish." He swiftly rejected the suggestion.
The two variants he had commanded started attacking Lucifer.
One of them was the same person who had fired a blue lightning bolt previously. Flourance chose him since he only wished to enrage Lucifer but not actually hurt him.
The other selected person was a water type Variant that could use the water in the surroundings to harm his enemies or trap his enemies in a solid bubble of water that was tough to get out of for any normal Variant.
He didn't create a water bubble prison around Lucifer since he was sure that it would be broken instantly. He also knew that it would only work to delay Lucifer a little, so he didn't use that.
He was aware of what Flourance wished for. He simply created knives of water that shot out towards Lucifer.
Even though he was a master of aim who rarely missed his target, he intentionally aimed wrong so that his attack wouldn't hit Lucifer's face or chest. He aimed at Lucifer's right hand, which he thought was the only hand that could fire the black lightning bolts.
Throughout the battle, Lucifer had mostly used lightning bolts from his right hand, which effectively created a misconception in people about his powers. They all assumed some things about him.
Everyone thought that he could only use it more from his right hand. None of them were aware of the reality. They only knew his powers, not how he could use them. The only other information they had was what they saw in this battle.
Lucifer saw the lightning bolt coming towards him, which he didn't ignore since it only worked to replenish his energy. He let the lightning bolt hit him in his chest.
As soon as he was hit, a refreshed feeling filled his body, making him feel like he had rested for some time.
He didn't relax as he saw blue Knives flying towards him.
"Not anymore!" Lucifer roared as he twisted his body sideways, dodging the knife.
