Devil Slave (Satan system)-Chapter 1231: Morningstar’s Reach!

The moment the Enochian language rang from Enel’s mouth, Victor’s shoulder began to burn.

A searing pain shot through him as the tattoo representing the mark of the Lenny royal family seemed to come alive. The design glowed brightly, its intricate patterns writhing as if in agony.

Victor grimaced, biting down hard to keep from crying out. His hands clenched into fists as the burning sensation intensified. Then, just as suddenly as it had started, the tattoo dimmed and began to fade away.

In its place, something far more sinister emerged—a mark unlike anything anyone had ever seen. Three inverted sixes intertwined, their serpentine forms slithering against his skin as though they were alive. The numbers moved like wriggling snakes, shifting in mesmerizing patterns that made the air feel heavier, darker.

Gasps erupted around the room. The eerie sight froze everyone in their tracks.

Perseus, ever composed, felt his breath hitch. His hands instinctively reached for the hilt of his blade, a reflexive response to the palpable shift in the atmosphere.

Beside him, Tomato—usually indifferent and unbothered—dropped her usual smirk and immediately assumed a defensive stance, her sharp eyes glued to Victor’s shoulder.

The werewolf commanders, were also shaken.

Each of them stood, their mouths slightly agape, their expressions reflecting a mix of disbelief and fear.

Yet amidst the shock, two figures remained unmoved.

Enel, his dark eyes narrowing, stepped closer. Beside him, Allison held her ground, though her knuckles turned white as she tightened them.

This was it. This was the mark she had seen that day.

This was the reason she had run away from home.

During her investigation on who the spy was, she had accidentally walked into the room when Victor was having a conversation through a rune with with fallen angel.

That day, she had run, but Victor, determined to track her down without making too big a fuss about it, did not use werewolves.

Instead, he had used fallen angels. But some how she had managed to survive.

It was at that time that Luca, Enel’s father who was Lenny’s son had found her, and took her in.

She had fallen in love with him. Or so she thought. Not until Enel was born at least.

This was the true reason she betrayed her pack. Of course, her love for Luca was the reason she had stayed.

The rest of the crowd instinctively took a step back, unable to tear their gaze from the writhing mark on Victor’s shoulder.

"That…" Enel’s voice was low, measured, yet laced with a hint of disgust. "That is the mark of Lucifer Morningstar."

A tense silence followed, broken only by the faint sound of the mark’s shifting. Victor straightened, the corners of his lips curling into a smirk. His eyes gleamed with a strange mix of amusement and malice as he regarded Enel.

"Well, well," Victor drawled, his tone dripping with mockery. "How did you manage to do that?" His voice carried an edge of curiosity, but the smirk on his face remained unshaken. "I went to great lengths—great pains—to hide the mark of the Morningstar. And yet here we are."

Enel’s frown deepened, his gaze never wavering from Victor. He crossed his arms, his expression unreadable, though a flicker of something dangerous sparked in his eyes.

"No one can fool me with the mark of the Lenny royal family," Enel replied, his voice steady but firm. "It was a forgery—an obvious one. I could spot it from a mile away."

The reason Enel could say this boldly was because he was the originator of it. It was his law rune mark. It was connected to his soul.

Victor’s smirk faltered ever so slightly, but he quickly masked it with a chuckle. "Well, congratulations," he said, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "You’ve ruined my little secret. What now? Are you going to scold me?"

Enel didn’t respond immediately. Instead, his gaze flicked briefly to the others in the room—Perseus, still on edge; Tomato, uncharacteristically tense; and the commanders, struggling to process what they had just seen. Finally, his gaze returned to Victor.

"Secrets have consequences," Enel said simply. "And that mark…" He trailed off, his expression darkening. "That mark carries a weight you clearly don’t understand."

Victor’s grin widened. "Oh, I understand perfectly," he replied, his tone mocking yet calculated. "But you have no idea how reliving it is to let it all out. After all, I had hid this for a very long time."

"How long?" Enel asked.

"A couple of hundred years."

The crowd gasped again.

The implications were a lot. This would mean that for a lot of them, for their entire lives, they had been lied to by their Alpha.

"How... No! Why? Are yoi not supposed to be a part of the Lenny royal family?"

"Oh... I still am. I royalty status has not completely shifted to that of the Morningstar."

Victor proceeded to explain.

Firstly, he stated that things were not the way the rest of the universe thought it was.

Lucifer had already named the core of a primary plane. Of course it was none other than Purgatory.

However, the royal ascension had been forced as Purgatory was still very wounded from the destruction that Lenny had done to it.

For this reason, the Morningstar royal family was not recognised by the cosmic laws and as such, they was no universal announcement of the ascension.

Also, lucifer could only pick three people to become part of his royal family as executives.

Victor was surprisingly a part of that pick.

It just so happened that through the original Satan system of Lenny’s body, Lucifer had somehow reached from within to grab a member of the Lenny royal family.

At the time, the Lenny royal family had already fallen under the Odin Sleep within the eighth earth.

Reaching them was next to impossible. Also, none of them had a heart he could whisper to. At least none of them had a heart like Victor which was in incredible pain...
