Chapter 161: Yandere?



He was sitting on a chair, the room was dark with a very little source of light so Lucian was barely visible because of the black flames, in front of him the laptop was placed on the table.

The setting of the room was quite similar to the previous time when he had appeared before the world, it was a little dark but the flames were still visible to some extent.

He had properly set everything up so that they wouldn\'t be able to trace his location or hear background noises, and with Echo working, he didn\'t have to worry about anything.

Taking in a deep breath, Lucian called Clara through his laptop; it was a video call. Only after a few seconds, the call was picked and two women wearing black and white colored masks appeared in front of Lucian.

One was wearing a kimono and the other was still in her operation attire. Lucian was already aware of Clara\'s identity so he didn\'t give her much attention, instead, he focused his gaze on the leader.

On the other side, as the leader saw the screen, it seemed her eyes had a glint to them, almost as if she was seeing a celebrity who she wanted to meet her entire life, her expressions remained hidden under the mask.

"So you are Maledict?" The leader\'s voice sounded, and it was obvious that it was not her real voice.

"You can say that, it is but a mere title." Lucian spoke. Before going to the main topic, he wanted to find out about her a little from the discussion.

"Haha, that\'s true. Actually, I quite liked your previous performance—it was magnificent." The leader said, releasing a small chuckle.

Of course, just like Lucian, she had masked her emotions and habits too.

There was a silence for a few seconds as the leader just stared at his mask, which was covered in darkness, yet in that darkness, the smile and two black eyes were slightly visible.

"So, what is your decision? Have you decided to surrender or are you planning to fight against me? But if you want I can just—" Lucian began to speak.

The things he had said the last time were just bullshit; he only wanted to join the Pendulum. But just as he was about to say it, he was interrupted.

"We have made our decision, and..." The leader paused for a moment, then she added:

"You can have the entire Pendulum."

"..."

Lucian was speechless, feeling as if he had just heard some kind of joke, but he composed himself quickly and spoke:

"You mean to say..."

"Yes, I will work under you and follow all your orders. Everyone in the Pendulum will be working under you, whether you make the right decisions or wrong, even if you completely turn the Pendulum to dust no one would be rejecting your orders." The leader said, her tone rising.

\'Is this for real? She really is giving up that easily, maybe this is a trap? But she seems a little strange,\' Lucian thought, as his eyes squinted.

"Also, this is not a trap or anything, I\'m fully giving you the command over the Pendulum. And actually, I am quite interested in you, this curiosity is bubbling up inside me, I can\'t wait for the day that we meet."

Her tone was strange as she spoke this, even though this was not her original voice, but Lucian could still feel it.

"I see, I will contact you soon in the future." Saying that, Lucian cut the call. It didn\'t go according to his plan, and he would need to think more about this turn of events.

"That leader girl, she seems like a certain girl from the animeDeath Note, like how that girl did whatever the MC asked, even giving up half her life. The crazy yandere type." Lucian mumbled as he placed the mask away in Zero\'s storage and closed the laptop.

Then he turned the lights on and sat on the bed, thinking deeply about his short meeting with Pendulum.

"Zero, do you think she will betray me?" Lucian mumbled while staring at the floor.

[I don\'t think so, but the future is ever changing and you are an abnormality. Still, she didn\'t seem like that type.]

"If I take over the Pendulum, I would have one of the biggest organizations working under me, while I can also manipulate two of the strongest women... Hmm, well at least one of them, not sure about Jasmine yet.

Anyway, haven\'t I already gotten the highest authority?" Lucian pondered. But even though getting this type of authority is necessary, what matters the most is individual strength.

[That\'s true. If you use such authority, you can cause great destruction.]

Lucian nodded, then he began to make plans about Pendulum. He would make the Pendulum rise even higher to the point that it could reach the highest position.

"Are you sure about this?" Clara spoke as she pursed her lips.

"Yes." The leader replied and took off her mask. Then she stood up and began to walk out of the room, with Clara following behind her.

"Won\'t it cause problems? Quite a lot of members might not be satisfied with such a change. Also, I wonder why you are just allowing him to take what you built for such a long time." Clara spoke, she was a little worried too.

"Hehe, maybe you don\'t see it, but I can see it clearly, his brilliance. We are the ones who need him." The leader replied as she continued to walk towards the exit.

"But you said he isn\'t the God you were looking for. I too feel as if this is a rash decision." Clara said. She didn\'t want Maledict to take over their organization either.

"What I meant earlier, is that we don\'t need a God but someone who can fight those Gods. Of course, he isn\'t a God but he is the devil we need." The leader answered. She seemed to be in a good mood just because she got to talk to him.

"Is he really that powerful?" Clara finally stopped after they had walked out of the house.

"Maybe he is or maybe he isn\'t, maybe that was all just a coincidence or maybe he possesses those abilities.

In any case, you can\'t understand what I am seeing. When the others arrive, inform them all about my decision." Saying that, she walked away and began to water the flowers.

"Sigh, I can never understand what goes on in her head." Clara sighed and decided to wait for the Shards to arrive.

They all have their private lives and since they were informed out of nowhere, it was going to take some time.
