Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 707 Lucifer: I envy you very much

"You know me?"

Luther looked at the drastically changed Lucifer in front of him and was not in a hurry. He had not yet turned into the blond Lucifer or the devilish Lucifer in the comics, which meant that he was not serious.

"There are not many people who can defeat that guy."

Lucifer said meaningfully.

Hell in the DC universe is another level of reality. Generally speaking, only people with demonic blood, people of higher levels, and souls who are prohibited from entering heaven can enter hell.

There is a BUG in DC comics about the birth of hell. In the 2020 comic "Lucifer" V3 #15, it is clearly described that the archangel Lucifer launched a rebellion in heaven. After the failure, Lucifer was exiled to hell by God. At this time, hell is empty.

Eventually the souls of the dead begin to be drawn to hell due to guilt. Since Lucifer had never been so close to humans, he began to experiment on these humans, and his methods were so cruel that they became the torture of hell.

But more comics show that the First Fallen had become the ruler of hell long before Lucifer. It was Lucifer who defeated the First Fallen and seized the dominance of hell.

The universal currency of hell is the soul. Living people or other sentient creatures sign contracts with demons through rituals to obtain power, wealth, etc. After their death, their souls belong to the demon. There is even an institution in hell to appraise the value of the soul. and the trading body of souls.

The DC universe is different. In the DC universe, Satan also has a position, that is, the ruler of hell.

However, in fact, the Second Fallen and the Third Fallen are not Fallen, but very powerful demons.

The First Fall, whose true name is unknown, was the first creature created in the universe, the companion of God and the incarnation of his conscience.

Marvel's Satan. In the Marvel universe, every demon lord claims to be Satan to his believers, but in each hell dimension, no one sits on the throne of Satan because it will cause attacks from other hell lords.

Until the arrival of the fourth exile, the most powerful angel beside God: Lucifer. Lucifer came to hell and immediately took over Satan's position.

However, he soon began to think that God was a madman, so he was banished from heaven to hell by God, becoming the first of the Fallen. In Hell, the First Fall became Satan, the ruler of Hell.

In fact, the change of power between the First Fallen and Lucifer is more complicated. Lucifer once abdicated, and then the First Fallen became Satan again.

In the DC universe, Satan is also called the Devil. The Satan in the DC universe has not only changed many times, but there are often three people who serve as Satan together, adopting a trinity rule.

After the appearance of the Second and Third Fallen, in order to prevent the outbreak of war, the First Fallen shared his power, forming a trinity of rule with the Second and Third Fallen.

There have been many bugs in DC regarding the replacement of Satan's position. Demons and angels such as the First Fallen, Nero, Etrigan, and Duma have all been described as taking Lucifer's place.

Because of the difference in the speed at which time passes, a day on Earth is equivalent to a minute in Hell.

The first Satan was the First Fall, but after Lucifer came to hell, he took away the position of Satan. After that, angels and demons such as Duma and Neron all held the position of Satan.

"Don't talk nonsense, I just rejected His power."

Luther shrugged. Although the Supreme God is a happy person, he may still be targeted if he says bad things, and he doesn't want to be targeted.

Lucifer grinned, appreciating Luther's behavior as, like himself, his goal was to have "true free will": that is, freedom from the influence of his father and creator, Yahweh. Although Luther commented that his behavior was so idle that it was almost like being born in the midst of blessings and not knowing the blessings.

Lucifer possesses almost omnipotent divine power. Unlike ordinary fallen angels, Lucifer is God's most perfect creation. Therefore, even if he is demoted to hell, Lucifer still retains his divine brilliance and almost omnipotent divine power. , while ordinary fallen angels have lost their original holiness.

Lucifer possesses the power of the Morning Star (also known as the Will of God) and is able to manipulate any cause and effect to achieve his desired effect, which is to shape creation.

As long as there is creation and destruction, Lucifer is omnipotent, from living things to the entire multiverse.

Through the words of Mengjun and Destiny, we can know that Lucifer is even more powerful than the members of the Endless Family (in Lucifer v3, Destiny personally admitted that Lucifer may be able to kill him).

The only beings who can rival and surpass His power are Michael and God. (In fact, if you look carefully, you can find more, such as Elaine who became the new God, but this does not prevent Lucifer from being one of the most powerful beings in the DC universe)

The great darkness and the giant ferocious beast are all part of Lucifer's identity.

"I appreciate your behavior, so what do you want from me?"

Lucifer asked confused.

In his opinion, Luther was the freest being he had ever seen, with an incomprehensible power of transcendence, even beyond the "rules"!
Even if Lucifer is so powerful, he still must obey the restrictions of "rules". Even God has said that even he cannot transcend such invisible "rules". Any creature, god, or endless family in the DC world view , angels and demons must obey the "rules".

But Luther was different. He surpassed all of this. Even his old father could not surpass it, but he did it.

This is also what Lucifer envies. If he can, he is willing to pay any price to exchange for this kind of freedom.

Even though Luther's power is far inferior to him, Lucifer is still willing to give him respect and equal treatment.

This is because Luther transcended everything, so he must be able to transcend himself and the Creator Jehovah. This is a future that cannot be avoided or reversed, and is unstoppable.

So Lucifer doesn't mind providing kindness, just regard it as an investment.

You can't offend a transcendent who has an infinite future without any grudges, right?

The old father gave him strength many times and also maintained his attention to Luther. Even Lucifer did not receive such treatment.

When Jehovah gave Luther strength, he thought he would have one more brother, a real brother like Michael.

Although he and Michael are highly valued, even if he refuses power many times and tears off his angel wings, he will still be restored by Jehovah in the end.

But even he and Michael were not under the intense attention of the old man 24 hours a day.

Even though Luther himself couldn't feel it, Lucifer could see Jehovah's gaze.
