<h4>Chapter 219 - 219; Gifts </h4>
"But you need to be careful. Don’t do it alone. Because he might have a good gift but he’s one of our best in hand-to-handbat too. You’ll need more people to overwhelm him and get him in control," Dash told Jake.
"Don’t worry about that. I’ll make sure everything goes smoothly. Tomorrow is the day when Alex’s world is going to turn upside down. Tomorrow, he’ll regret leaving his room for the rest of his life!" Jake said,ughing.
"Yeah. I’ll help you with this too. Let’s n the other minor aspects of the n, like where you’ll do it. It needs to be outside the sses and outside the hostel, so teachers aren’t alerted before Alex breaks the rule," Dash chimed in.
" True. If they interfere, the whole n will fail, and we might not have a chance like this again in the future." Jake nodded.
The two of them shared their ss schedules to see when was the best time to do it. For the next two hours, they nned the whole thing. Only when everything was finalized, Dash left.
It was decided that tomorrow wouldn’t be the day they enact the n as there was a schedule problem. The day after tomorrow was going to be when they were going to do it.
...
A new day arrived with a good news. Lucifer was informed that his grandfather was here to meet him
Standing up, Lucifer hastily dressed before he ran towards the meeting room.
"Grandpa!"
As soon as Lucifer saw the old man, he hugged him tightly.
"Did you get back on timest night?’ the old man asked Lucifer, concerned.
"Ah, yeah. I was right in time," Lucifer answered, lying. He didn’t want to worry his grandfather and make him feel like he was to be med for Lucifer’s strike.
"What happened to the girl? Did you leave her at the police station?" He asks as he freed the old man.
"Yeah. I left her there safely. As the girl remembered her family’s phone number, the cops said they were going to find his family faster. I came to tell you this," Grandpa Chi answered.
"How were you able to get in? What happened to getting the permit ten days before being allowed inside Campus?" Lucifer asked, curious.
"You don’t know? Since you won the first ce for three straight years, I also got a special privilege. Every month, I cane to meet you without an advanced permit. It’s simr to how you’re allowed to go out; I’m allowed toe in," Grandpa Chi answered.
"That’s such a good news!" Lucifer eximed in surprise. "You cane next month too then.’
"I can’t. I don’t think I can see you for four or five months at least," Grandpa Chi answered.
"Why?" Lucifer asked, standing up.
"I am going to explore the sea tomorrow. I’ll return after a few months at the least. Don’t worry; I’ll soon return before you even know it. This will be the first ce Ie after I return," Grandpa Chi answered calmly.
"Hah, that again. Grandpa, you’re getting old. You really should stop this someday," Lucifer said as he sat again.
"I doubt I can ever leave the sea. It’s like my second home," Grandpa Chi answered.
"Anyway, I also had another reason toe. Yesterday, I forgot to give you your birthday gift. I wanted to give it to you at the end, but everything else happened, and I didn’t get time. Here it is,"
Grandpa Chi ced a small box on the table.
"What’s in it?" Lucifer asked.
"Open it and find out," Grandpa Chi answered.
Lucifer picked up the box to open it, only to find what seemed like a golden pendant.
He further opened the pendant to reveal two pics inside. One was of Grandpa Chi, while the other photo was of Lucifer that was clicked when on his first birthday with Grandpa Chi.
"It’s beautiful," Lucifer let out, happy with the gift. "Thank you, grandpa."
He wore the pendant on his neck before standing up.
He hugged old man Chi.
"Alright. I think it’s time for me to leave. Best of luck, my dear Grandson. I’m really proud of you."
After bidding his farewell, Grandpa Chi left. Lucifer also walked back as he touched the beautiful pendant.
Instead of going back to his room, Lucifer walked back to the ss.
As he reached the ss, he found everyone else sitting there already. It seemed like he was the one who wasst toe.
Lucifer took his seat in the middle of Dash and Cassius.
As soon as he sat, he noticed Cassius ce a box before him.
"What is this?" Lucifer asked Cassius, confused.
"Treat it as a bted birthday gift. It took time for me to arrange it," Cassius answered, smiling.
"Thank you, but you didn’t need to get me a gift," Lucifer said, thanking Cassius.
"You’re right. I didn’t need to. It’s that I wanted to. So take it and open it," Cassius replied.
Lucifer opened the second box of the day to reveal a ring inside it. It seemed like a tinum ring that had a red jade embedded in it.
"This looks expensive," Lucifer let out as he picked the ring.
"It is expensive indeed, but not because of the previous materials. It’s special because of the technology inside it," Cassius replied.
"What technology?" Lucifer asked, interested.
"This ring came in a pair. As for the second ring, I’m wearing it," Cassius said as he revealed the ring in his hand.
"Because both these rings share the technology, they’re perfect. Both these rings have a tracker, but it’s encrypted. Only the owner of the ring can use it to find where the owner of the other ring is and vice versa," he further said.
"Other than us too, no one can use them," he continued.
" Why this time? Hahaha, it’s not like I’m going to get lost?" Lucifer asked,ughing.
"Didn’t you sayst time that there might be a day when one of us disappears? I don’t want to lose contact if that day everes. So I want you to be able to find me. Just like I want to be able to get to you, no matter what happens. I don’t want to lose this friendship ever," Cassius exined.
"Hah, you really think about weird scenarios. I only said that because I thought I’d be expelled and I won’t be able to meet you again. But I don’t have any ns of getting expelled. I’m really careful," Lucifer let out, smiling wryly.
