Falsifying history is good business

Chapter 258 Mother and Son
The help the two old wizards urgently need is, of course, to find Ariana's soul in hell; Grindelwald's plan has failed, and Dumbledore has also proved with practical actions that he will not let dangerous demons enter the world in order to save his sister.

Since the original route is not possible, the best person who can help find Ariana's soul is Lucifer Morningstar.

This was Constantine's earliest suggestion; he offered Charlotte's help in exchange for helping to find Lucifer; and then he offered Dumbledore the opportunity to introduce Lucifer to him to counterbalance Grindelwald. One thing led to another, and after drawing a few big pieces of cake, he gained two powerful allies.

Lin You could actually do the same thing, but he didn't do it because it went against the requirement of "reasonableness". Constantine did the same thing, and Lin You was happy to see it happen, also because such a result was "reasonable".

Because what Constantine did was in line with his own wishes, when the other party left the positioning magic on the Spear of Longinus, Lin You just pretended not to see it. Perhaps it won't be long before the underground world will start to spread the gossip that the Vatican has lost the holy spear.

However, Constantine's plan was too big, and if he wanted to realize it in the end, Lin You would have to step in to help.

Hearing this request, Charlotte's expression faltered slightly: "Lucifer is different from other demons. He rarely does this kind of... well, how should I put it, loan sharking?"

Lucifer in the DC universe is different from the fallen angels in the Bible; although he lost his position and authority in heaven and was cast into hell, he still retains the characteristics of an angel to a large extent. Therefore, Lucifer in the comics does not try to deceive human souls like most other demons - although he is fully capable of doing so.

Lin You was very clear about this, but he still advised gently: "Of course, I know this; but this time it was someone else who came to ask for it, not Lucifer who took the initiative to seek it. Besides, Dumbledore and Grindelwald also contributed to the search for Lucifer; they provided a lot of help in the search work in the wizarding world."

“I’m not sure He will accept it, and I won’t make any guarantees,” Charlotte emphasized.

"Of course, you just need to explain the whole story to Lucifer. No matter what decision He makes in the end, I will understand it."

Lin You's words revealed an obscure attitude, placing himself and Lucifer on a completely equal footing. This attitude attracted Charlotte's attention and great curiosity, but in the end she hid her curiosity and decided to find her son first.

After seeing Charlotte off, Earl Goff had two rare days of leisure time. It was Christmas again, and it seemed that nothing major would happen this year. The Bank of England had paid the money it should have paid, and the Crown Prince and Princess had separated. As for the second-year girl at Hogwarts who would turn into a cat girl at Christmas, she would probably still have to suffer this disaster, proving with practical actions the serious consequences of taking the wrong medicine.

As a result, Lin Youduo did not have a relaxing time. On the day of Jesus' "birthday", Jesus' "brothers" came to visit him.

"You betrayed me, Penholder." Lucifer said fiercely, "You broke the agreement and sold my information to others; I thought we were allies."

Lin You said slowly, "The content of our agreement is that I will keep the 'Hell Key' for you, and you will promise to help me do something within your ability in the future, and allow me to take a designated number of souls from Hell; and neither of us can reveal the secret that the 'Hell Key' is in my hands. Count them yourself, which one says that I can't tell others your whereabouts?"

"..." Lucifer was stunned, and then he became furious: "Why do you think I ran out, and why did I give you the 'key'? Isn't it just to prevent others from bothering me?"

"That's your mother, how can she be considered someone else?"

"Others means anyone and everyone!" "Then you should have made it clear when signing the agreement." Lin You leaned back on the sofa, spread his hands lazily, and pushed it aside.

Lucifer roared, "You've ruined my life on earth!"

"Since the world is not worth it, let's go back to hell. I will return the 'Key to Hell' to you now." Lin You made a gesture to get up.

"NO!" Lucifer's face changed immediately, and he put on a smile in an instant, "I'm just complaining, don't take it seriously, brother. You know, young people who have lived with their parents for a long time will inevitably have a lot of complaints to vent."

"It has been less than forty-eight hours since Lady Charlotte got your address. And already you're full of complaints?"

"You don't understand how terrible my mother is!" Although Charlotte was not here, Lucifer could not hide his palpitations when he talked about her. "To her, even if her son is thousands or tens of thousands of years old, he is still a child who has not grown up."

"Isn't that great? She is willing to take care of you like a child." Lin You did not hide his gloating.

Lucifer screamed, "She'll control me like a child!"

"So, what do you think I can do?" Count Goff's question instantly deflated the fallen angel, like a child who was helpless against his parents.

I have to say that, although he is still a devil and a fallen angel, the Lucifer in the comics is indeed more human than the Lucifer in the Bible.

"You're right. I can't do anything myself, so you can't do anything either." Lucifer lay down on the sofa with a hollow and powerless look in his eyes.

"You didn't come here just to complain to me, did you? And you chose such a special day? I guess it's about Ariana?" Lin You handed over a glass of red wine.

Lucifer was not polite at all. He took the wine glass and drank it all. He said, "To be precise, I came here for the 'unknown'. My mother is in a daze and knows nothing, but I do. This is an 'unknown', and once I agree to the request of the two old wizards, it will inevitably affect their lives and even completely change the 'known' story of the big world."

"So, what do you want me to do?" Lin You asked a similar question again, but this time he was not trying to shirk responsibility, but was very serious.

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you this question?" Lucifer asked back, "You are the author, and you are the one who pushed those two old wizards in front of me. What do you want me to do?"

"I don't want to think about anything right now, and I don't dare to think about anything." Lin You answered sincerely, "I am only responsible for sending them to you. No matter what happens next, it has nothing to do with me. No matter what decision you make, it is based on your own judgment. It has nothing to do with me, and you don't need to consider my attitude."
