The Villain’s Perspective

Today is the end for Hell. Lucifer thought as he prepared everything he needed in the room. For now, he would bring along his familiar dagger, a gun that had no bullets inside, a white marble, and the key he stole.

Lucifer also decided to bring along some snacks and a healing kit in case of emergency. At that moment, his computer screen suddenly turned on.

[All guards, please gather on the 1st floor.]

Lucifer saw the announcement and put on his white uniform. But he didn't leave the room yet, he waited until all the guards had gone to the 1st floor before going out. His target was the 7th floor anyway.

5 minutes later, the 2nd floor hallway was completely empty. It seemed like everyone had gone to the 1st floor, but even so, Lucifer still couldn't let down his guard.

Before leaving, he glanced at Mask's room and checked her quickly.

Lucifer crept to the elevator, holding a knife in his hand in case he encountered any enemies. Luckily, the elevator door opened without anyone inside.

Lucifer breathed a sigh of relief and pressed the button to the 7th floor.

***

Before the elevator opened at the 7th floor, Lucifer quickly hid at the edge of the elevator in case someone entered the elevator from the 7th floor. As he had predicted, a green guard entered the elevator.

It seemed that he didn't notice Lucifer because his back was turned to Lucifer. Lucifer immediately pulled out his knife and stabbed the guard from behind. Blood spurted out like water. The moment Lucifer pulled out the knife was also the moment the guard died.

Lucifer decided to leave the guard's body here and destroy the elevator so that no one could use it anymore. Now there were only 4 out of 5 elevators that were still functioning.

Lucifer went deeper into the 7th floor, to the area where the monsters were held. Using the key he stole, Lucifer unlocked all the cells he encountered.

"Hey, is anyone there?" Suddenly a voice rang out.

Lucifer was frozen, he instantly hid in a monster's cell. The footsteps were getting nearer and nearer to him. Lucifer was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe.

Suddenly he heard snoring coming from the cell where he was hiding, Lucifer reflexively turned towards the snoring sound. It was a stupid choice.

Lucifer almost lost his balance and screamed out loud when he witnessed the monster inside the cell. At first, he thought that monsters in this world wouldn't be that scary, but he was completely wrong.

Near Lucifer was a skinny monster with pale skin, long arms, and sharp claws. It had a lifeless face, pale eyes, and a grinning mouth. It seemed even more horrifying than the monsters from horror movies.

Fortunately, it was still sleeping. On the other hand, the footsteps were getting closer and closer to Lucifer. He took out a dagger from his pocket.

After the guard passed the cell where Lucifer was hiding, he immediately jumped out, covered the guard's mouth, and stabbed him in the neck, killing him instantly.

***

The 7th floor had a total of 20 cells, meaning there were at least 20 monsters in each room. It was highly likely that they were Beast level, although it was the lowest level in the ranking, but with that number, they could become much more threatening.

It didn't take Lucifer long to unlock the entire place. After finishing his work, Lucifer used the elevator to go to the first floor to blend in with the guards. Before going up, he wiped the blood stains on his clothes.

It seemed like they were moving from the first floor to the third floor now.

'That's good, there will be fewer guards on the first floor.'

The security room was a room located quite deep on the first floor, the path to it was quite winding but that wasn't a big problem for Lucifer. He had gone to the security room every day just to memorize the route.

Luckily, the route to the security room was almost completely devoid of guards.

"May I enter the security room?" Lucifer knocked on the door and asked for permission properly.

"Come in." A voice came from behind the door.

Without hesitation, he entered the security room and closed the door. This room wasn't too big but it wasn't too small either. The special thing about this place was that it was completely covered with technology devices. There must be at least 8 computer screens in here and some devices that Lucifer had never seen before.

Inside the room was a red guard who was monitoring the camera outside. In his pocket was a handgun.

"What do you need?" He asked Lucifer.

"I saw someone go down to the 7th floor when the announcement was to gather on the 1st floor." Lucifer tried to stay calm.

Hearing that, the guard immediately checked the camera on the 7th floor. In Hell, the 1st floor, the 2nd floor hallway, the 3rd floor, the 4th floor, the 5th floor and the 7th floor were the only places with cameras installed.

A moment later, the computer screen showed an image of a green guard being stabbed from behind by a white guard with a dagger.

The red guard zoomed in and stared closely at the dagger.

"Is this the dagger on the screen?" Lucifer asked.

He immediately stabbed the red guard to death, not giving him time to answer the question.

Then, Lucifer kicked the corpse off the chair and sat on it. After that, he searched for the system so that he could close every door in Hell.

[Power off.]

[Spray water.]

[Signal.]

[Interference.]

'Here it is.'

[Close the door.]

Lucifer immediately set the closing time to 7:10. To be extra sure, he even set a timer for the power to automatically turn off at 7:30. That way, the humans wouldn't be able to see anything and the monsters would have an advantage.

After finishing his work, Lucifer locked the entire system so that no one could edit it anymore and destroyed the key used to lock the system.

Before leaving the room, he glanced at the red guard's corpse. A thought appeared in Lucifer's mind.

Currently, Lucifer was walking proudly down the hallway to Mask's room. The reason he could be so carefree was because he was wearing a red uniform, which meant he had the highest rank in Hell.

Before putting on this red uniform, he had wiped off the blood on the outside, there was still a bit of blood on the inside. Although he was annoyed by the blood on the inside, in return, he had more authority and a gun with 6 bullets inside.

'It feels really good to have so much power.'

All the green and white guards had to move aside so that Lucifer could walk. They became much more obedient when they met someone with a higher rank.

Lucifer entered Mask's room and took out the white uniform he had hidden inside. Even though Mask still had a high fever, she was still able to move a little.
