Volume 10 – Chapter 45: The “Dead Sea Documents” Page & Clues to “Akashic Records”
After the man dressed in a classical style greeted Lucifer gracefully with a bow, he raised his head with a smile.

For some reason, the golden wig was surprisingly not heavy, even when every strand of his dazzling wig was made of gold.

Not only that, every piece of clothes this man wore was luxurious. He had eight rings inlaid with gemstone on different fingers.

Although his unique temperament didn’t look vulgar in his upstart outfit, Lucifer was aware of this guy’s bumptious attitude.

“Wolfgang, it isn’t Tuesday today. So why are you coming here early?” Lucifer sat on a chair studded with many precious stones, accompanied by Charlotte.

For some reason, Lucifer didn’t like to call this man with the surname praised by later generations. Hence, she went along with Wolfgang, the man’s first name instead.

“Because of some minor situation, I plan to change the original plan.” Mozart… Wolfgang seemed even more humble at this time.

He was well-aware of the luxurious woman’s identity sitting before him. She was the light bringer, the morning star, the Ruler of Hell, the lord of the fallen angel legion.

“Oh?” Wolfgang said, “Your Royal Highness, as long as I can play a hundred pieces of music that can move you, you will allow me to lead you once and go to the cracks of the world.”

“It’s already the 19th piece. Time flies.” Lucifer said with a chuckle, “But, Wolfgang, are you reminding me of my initial promise? Do you think I have a bad memory? Or, do you think I will not honor this promise in the end?”

“Of course not,” Wolfgang shook his head, maintaining a calm posture.

Even if the mighty one in front of him was the Child of Light who betrayed God during that teleportation, he was still confident to leave freely even if he couldn’t contend with her, especially with his status as a member of a particular group. But once the situation developed in that direction, all his efforts in fostering a close relationship would be wasted.

Wolfgang couldn’t help but smile bitterly at this time, “Your Royal Highness, at first I thought that with my capability, it wouldn’t be too challenging to play a hundred music pieces that would impress you. Even if it is difficult, it isn’t an impossible mission. Thirty years have passed, and only 19 songs have passed your standard. That’s too slow.”

“You begged me to give you a chance to play one piece every week.” Lucifer supported her cheek with her hand while narrowing her eyes, “So, are you planning to ask for more opportunities from me?”

“Yes, I think if there are two opportunities a week, then it would be best.” Wolfgang lowered his head so that Lucifer couldn’t see his expression at this time.

At this time, he felt his own petard hoisted him. No matter how great a composer or musician he was before, he found it heartbreaking only to have 19 of his performances acknowledged in the past 30 years.

He often came with hope and enthusiasm with the new song he composed and devoted a lot of effort into. But in the end, he was returned with an indifferent attitude. I’m such a fool to approach the fallen angel!

I could have many girlfriends in the past 30 years…

“I’m only in the mood to listen to your performance on Tuesday.” Lucifer said calmly, “If you don’t like that, just don’t come back again.”

Wolfgang’s eyes twitched slightly. The Ruler of Underworld had crushed his self-confidence in the past few decades.

The only word that could describe his state in the vocabulary would be painstaking.

That’s right! He was certain that he faced the most hardship among all Transcended after hearing the news that other Transcendeds had successfully become the guide of the new Transcended.

Why do I need to suffer so much hardship?

You see, even Zang Jian, who lives in the world’s cracks and doesn’t come out often, can recruit a human at his own home!

You heard it right. It’s a free reward as if it grows on the tree at his home!

That’s simply unfair!

“Your Royal Highness, please grant me a chance.” Wolfgang didn’t intend to give up like this. He knew very well the rules here at Lucifer, “For this, I’m willing to offer sacrifices.”

“Sacrifice?” Lucifer smiled suddenly, “We can continue the topic. However, Wolfgang, this must be the premise that your sacrifice can satisfy me.”

“Your Royal Highness, please.” Wolfgang reached out his hand and swiped lightly in front of him at this time. He then carefully pulled out a wooden box from the cut crack.

The wooden box itself was extraordinary. Lucifer could feel the sacred spiritual qi exuding from the wooden box. She frowned and then suddenly said, “Are those branches of the Apple Tree of Eden?”

Wolfgang smiled and said, “Yes, this box is made from the branches of that apple tree.”

Lucifer shook her head, “Although this box is precious, it is useless to me. But you can send it to the Holy See. I believe they are willing to exchange treasure with your item.”

“It’s just to keep things that are dedicated to you.” Wolfgang slowly opened the lid of the box.

Lucifer had excellent eyesight. In an instant, she had a glimpse of what was in the box—a yellowed page.

“This is…” Charlotte had already caught a glimpse at this time, showing a hint of surprise in an instant.

Lucifer didn’t wait for Wolfgang to speak and reached out his hand to the air. The page hidden in the box flew directly into her palm.

She looked at it quietly.

“Lucifer, could this be…” Charlotte had some guesses in her heart, but she didn’t seem certain.

Lucifer closed her eyes. But, when she opened her eyes again, she wasn’t unfazed this time, “It isn’t a fake. “Dead Sea Document,” Wolfgang, you’re really lucky that you could find one of the pages.”

Wolfgang smiled slightly at this time and said, “According to legend, the “Dead Sea Document” records the origin of history and the birth of the gods. And this page I have seems to be the one recording the war between Your Highness and the Archangel.”

“I’m curious. Where did you get this page?” Lucifer seemed to avoid talking about the “war” Wolfgang mentioned and instead asked directly about the origin of this page.

“Luck.” Wolfgang smiled and said, “This is something one of my descendants obtained accidentally during an archaeological exploration. Of course, I also put some effort into trading for the page in his hands.”

Lucifer said in amusement, “I really didn’t expect that you, once known as a musical legend, have descendants who went for archaeology.”

Wolfgang smiled bitterly, “We have no reason to limit the development of our descendants, no matter if he aspires to become an archaeologist or ancient linguist.”

Lucifer nodded, but she heard the hardship in Wolfgang’s words.

Wolfgang cast a questioning look at this moment.

Lucifer was silent for a while before saying, “I accept this sacrifice. I have my rules. Since you offer me good things, I will give you a considerable return. I’m different from HIM. I would never talk about illusory things but give you something substantial.”

“Thank you, Your Highness!”

Lucifer stood up and said, “From now on, you may visit me and play me a piece of music every Tuesday and Sunday. Also, let’s reduce the condition from 100 pieces to 50 pieces.”

Wolfgang was overjoyed at once. This made his original mission several folds simpler, making his goal seemingly attainable. He didn’t need to get cramped every time he played the piano and yet still couldn’t satisfy the Ruler of Hell.

“In that case, I’ll go and prepare now.” Wolfgang said happily, “Your Highness, I just happened to compose a new piece!”

Lucifer said playfully, “Let’s start from next week onwards because I’m not in the mood today. That will disrupt my original schedule too.”

Wolfgang was a little gloomy because he couldn’t perform today. But, the good news was that he had gotten Lucifer’s promise. Waiting a few more days didn’t seem too challenging for Wolfgang, who had attained a long lifespan.

“Then, I will take my leave first, Your Highness.” Wolfgang performed standard court manners.

“Wait, if your descendants can still find the remnant pages of “Dead Sea Documents” in the future, you can continue to bring them to me.” Lucifer smiled lightly, “If there are enough of them, maybe I can directly accompany you back to the cracks.”

Wolfgang wasn’t as happy as he had imagined when he heard such a promise but just nodded. Unfortunately, it felt like an empty promise. His descendant was considered at the top of his luck to find a broken page.

Therefore, Wolfgang himself wasn’t so optimistic about it.

Because, according to legend, the complete “Dead Sea Documents” contained the secret to unlocking another treasure… the “Akashic Records” that recorded the roots of everything.

…

Charlotte took the page from Lucifer’s hand and was curious, “Dead Sea Documents.’ The legendary clue to ‘Akashic Records,’ and Wolfgang is willing to give it to you.”

Lucifer said indifferently, “Transcended relies on the world’s crack to obtain a result approaching eternal life. As one of the origins, ‘Akashic Records’ is an important carrier of the main world’s consciousness. It’s precious to the extent that HE will be willing to exchange the entire Eden for it. However, such a treasure is equivalent to poison for the Transcended group.”

As she said, Lucifer sneered, “These fellows who have betrayed the main world dare not provoke the world. To exchange it for my permission seems to be a big loss for others. But to Wolfgang, he has utilized waste to achieve the best result. Besides, there is only one page. It’s isn’t as great as it seems.”

“Then, who do you still make the promise to him?” asked Charlotte puzzledly.

“I want to motivate him a little. After all, the initiative is still in my hands. I make the final call if the piece of music satisfies me. What is the difference between a piece of music and a hundred pieces of music? Besides, this page just so happens to record the war between that brother and me.”

Lucifer smiled, “Although the most important role of “Dead Sea Documents” is to act as a beacon to find ‘Akashic Records,’ it also has an exciting ability.”

“Oh?“

“Having a complete “Dead Sea Documents” is equivalent to having the ability to rewrite history.” Lucifer said in excitement, “The holder can rewrite history through it. Of course, such rewriting doesn’t change the history or what happened in the past. What it rewrites is people’s perception of the related history.”

“I don’t understand,” asked Charlotte directly.

Lucifer said, “For example. A man named Lion. He died in a war a hundred years ago, and he was just a minute soldier. But by rewriting “Dead Sea Documents,” we can make the later generations recognize that Lion as a great king who was once invincible and even created a great country. Then, all history will serve the Lion. This great man will appear in all our cognition, knowledge, and literature. But, the real Lion is still the minute soldier.”

“It’s not so much rewriting…” Charlotte said in shock, “It’s more accurate to say that this is the ability to manipulate historical memory! This is horrifying!”

“No matter how horrifying it is, you still need to have the complete Dead Sea Documents.” Lucifer said with a pity, “Although this is the case, there has never been a guy who can get the complete “Dead Sea Documents.” It’s still unknown whether the ability truly exists.”

“I might be able to foretell where the rest of the remaining pages are.” Charlotte picked up the remaining pages, curling her hair with her fingers. Her face filled with excitement, “If there is a clue, the success rate should not be bad.”

Lucifer was silent. Why do you like divination so much?

“Um… I don’t know why I suddenly feel better.” Lucifer said abruptly, “Charlotte, come with me to the courtyard for tea.”

“Okay.”

But the next moment, Lucifer suddenly stopped and frowned. Charlotte looked concerned, but Lucifer said, “Bucky is calling me.”

“Bucky? Did he show up?” Charlotte froze for a moment. “It appears that he is in danger.”

Before the conversation with Wolfgang, Bucky’s presence just disappeared. How did it reappear so soon?

Lucifer was baffled, “He had indeed called to me, but it was faint. It seems that it’s something troublesome.”

Lucifer shook her head and waved her hand. On the floor in front of her, a black six-pointed star suddenly appeared, “I don’t know who you are, but you need to pay a little price for coveting my prey.”

Once the Son of Light, the morning star, and the Ruler of Hell… Her identity could shock the transcended world easily. She really wouldn’t bat an eye on many things.

Charlotte shook her head. Probably there’s a native god or god’s descendant who captured Bucky in a trap.

After all, Bucky had Lucifer’s gift in him: Great Luck.

However, Lucifer suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood at this moment. The black six-pointed star array in front of her had shattered.

Before she could speak out, she fell directly to the ground with horrified eyes.

“Lucifer!” Charlotte was shocked.

After falling to the ground, Lucifer was in a coma immediately!
