Lucifer was at the base of Variant Uprising, being overwhelmed by new faces, but he was still the old him. He didn't get close to anyone, nor did he let anyone get close to him.

"Caen, take Lucifer to guest room number Seven. I'll send new clothes for him there as well," Vega told Caen.

"But... I can do it," Isona told Vega, who simply refused.

"I don't think the little guy feels comfortable with you. Let Caen escort him. He's tired. We have plenty of time to get to know each other," Vega answered Isona. "Until then, you stay with Dion and me. We have work to do."

"Sigh, alright," Isona replied as she gazed at Caen with jealousy.

"Don't worry, little brother. We'll meet again," Isona told Lucifer, smiling gently before she stepped back to Vega.

"Come." With that, Caen started walking away while gesturing for Lucifer to follow behind him.

They again went inside the lift, which took them to the lower floors. Even though Lucifer was underground, he didn't feel like he was in danger. He was calm and composed, but he was also ready to take action if he needed to. He hadn't lowered his defense.

The door of the lift again opened, this time on a different floor.

Unlike the previous floor, this floor seemed different. It didn't seem like a big arena. Instead, it seemed like a proper complex with long corridors.

Many decent paintings were also hanging on the silver walls making the place seem more home-like.

"This is the floor where you'll rest. Don't worry about anything. We have personal chefs who will bring food for you here. Also, you'll get anything you desire as well. Moreover, this whole floor is only for guests," Caen told Lucifer as he stepped out of the lift.

"At the moment, only you're our guest, so this whole place is for you," he added. "Let me show you around."

Lucifer calmly followed after Caen, walking through the corridor.

"This room is the dining room. It's for joint dining in case we ever have a large number of guests. Since you're the only one, you don't need to come here. You can eat in your room. But if you want to eat here, no one will stop you either."

"This room here is the garden. We have a proper garden here which is quite big too. If you ever want to take a walk, you can do so here. There are also a few cute birds inside who you might like."

As Caen walked with Lucifer, he kept showing him around each of the rooms. He showed a massive dining hall and a garden which seemed bigger than it should have been. The garden was filled with many rare flowers, plants, and even trees.

There was also a fountain and a pond inside the garden.

"This here is for training," Caen said as he showed Lucifer the third room, which seemed pretty strange. The room had nothing. It was an entirely empty room with walls of stone that had strange markings on it.

"You might be wondering what this is or why we need training? Since you're new to being a Variant, you probably don't know about it. Since you're a part of our family, I'll tell you," Caen said.

"As Variants, we awaken our power before we turn ten years old. From that point on, we are able to use our powers. But even then, we can't use our full potential."

" Even though we can use our powers, we are only able to use a fraction of them. And since our powers and their grade is fixed at the start, the only way to get stronger is by increasing our efficiency of using our powers to their best," he explained.

"A Variant who can utilize ten percent of his A-Grade power is certainly weaker than a Variant who can utilize eleven or more percent of the same power."

"And the only way to increase your efficiency is by using your powers regularly to make your body more comfortable with them," he added as he walked inside the empty room.

Lucifer also entered behind Caen.

"But most of the Variants in our family are pretty strong. If they just used their powers randomly, they would destroy this whole place in the end. That's why we made these training rooms on each floor. These rooms are made with the help of some of our most intellectual and able Variants. These rooms aren't normal, as you might have guessed already."

"These are much more resistant to powers. Here, you can use your powers, and the damage would be much less."

"And after the training session, our Variants daily repair the rooms that suffered most damage so that the rooms are ready for another session the next day. You can also train here if you ever want. Don't worry about destroying the room. We will repair it later," Caen told Lucifer.

"Why don't you give it a try? I heard you have Super Strength. Go ahead and punch the wall," he let out, smiling.

Curious, Lucifer nodded his head. He also wanted to try if it was true.

He walked closer to one of the walls and packed his fist. Since Caen had said that he could use as much strength as he needed, he didn't want to stay behind. But at the same time, he also didn't want to expose his entire strength.

He had decided to only use fifty percent of what he could use.

After deciding, Lucifer packed his fist and punched the wall.

Bam!

A small fist landed on the wall, making the whole room vibrate. Cracks developed on the wall, but it still wasn't broken. The wall had mostly taken the attack.

On the other hand, if it had been a different wall, it would have been broken already, shattered to rubble.

"See? The wall is more resistant. But I'll still advise you not to attack at the same place because it is only resistant but not impervious to attacks. Change your targets regularly," Caen informed Lucifer about the limitations of the wall as well.
