He quickly ran towards the door to stop the argument to stop it from increasing too much.
"You accused me after you suddenly came out of the shop?"
"I'm not accusing you. I'm just saying that it is the fault of the two of us. None of us were looking carefully," Zale replied. "So, instead of blaming me, you should apologize as well since I already did."
"But instead of apologizing, you keep blaming me even more?"
"You want an apology? Here is your apology," the other person threw their ice cream cone at Zale, making his clothes an even bigger mess before walking away.
"You!" Zale took the cone and threw it at the back of the other person, returning the favor.
"Did you just...?" Stunned, the other person turned back after being hit by ice cream. "You are really an arrogant person! Let's see how arrogant you can be!"
"I don't hurt people, but I won't step back either!" Zale replied. Lightning started crackling around him.
"Enough!" A mighty voice came.
Lucifer stepped out of the shop, standing between the two people.
First, he looked at Zale. "Calm down. There's going to be no battle!"
In his mind, he was also slightly restless. 'Throughout the entire way, he was so naive. He didn't offend anyone, but now he offends someone and that too...'
He looked at the other side, letting out a deep sigh. He knew what a big mess this was. 'Maybe I shouldn't have brought him with me. Did I already change the future?'
He could see a girl standing before him. The girl was wearing a blue gown which was now dirty because of the ice cream on it.
The girl was looking like she was barely eighteen years old, but her face was covered in anger.
'Leaving that aside, how come she has the gloves? I thought they were made later? Was I wrong about my timing? She was already working for Elisium government by this time?'
"So you called for a friend? As expected of cowards!" Clarisse said, glaring at Lucifer, unaware that she was standing before the son she was going to love more than her life in the future.
"I think it's a big misunderstanding. We aren't bad peo-"
Lucifer tried to explain. He didn't want to make things worse. Originally, his father and mother were supposed to meet next year in Elisium while trying to help people in danger.
That's where their friendly relationship started on a good note which reached the stage of marriage not long after.
But that was completely different now. The meeting happened much earlier than it should have. Moreover, it wasn't a nice meeting. Instead of making things better, it made things worse.
He tried to alleviate the situation by explaining, but before he could even finish, a powerful gust of wind came, tossing him away.
Bang~
His back hit against a wall. He landed on the ground safely.
"Sigh, just what is happening. Father was so tame in his young days, but he became courageous and brave in the future. On the other hand, mother was gentle and kind, but in her younger days, she was a brute who craves fighting?"
"Did something happen in the future that changed their personalities to what I knew? Or was it the influence of them on each other after their meeting?"
"Sigh, it doesn't matter at the moment. I need to stop them. If I had known she was here, I wouldn't have come here with father. So much for not messing up with the history."
"Are you alright?" Zale asked Lucifer. "You hurt my friend? You must be one of those Dark Variants!"
"No, wait!" Lucifer called out, but before he could, Zale had already fired a lightning bolt towards Clarisse.
Clarisse dodged to the side, using her wind, and avoided the bolt.
"So you aren't weak. No wonder you were that arrogant! But that doesn't matter. Today, I'm bringing you on your knees and making you apologize!"
"You can dream all you want!" Zale said, frowning.
Clarisse clapped her hand, sending a massive gust of wind to hurl Zale like Lucifer, but her winds didn't work as Zale used his immense strength to jump ahead.
Clarisse's winds were strong, but they couldn't stop Zale, who was using the impact of his strength to force his body ahead.
"Then so be it!" Clarisse spread her arms, intensifying her winds. At the same time, she flew even higher to avoid being grabbed by Zale.
"Hey, you can't fly, can you?" Clarisse asked, flashing a sneaky smile.
Her winds kept intensifying with each passing second.
"Both of them are fighting, but none of them care about the civilians. If only they remained like this in the future, they would still be alive. However, it's too late now. I need to separate them."
"Maybe I can use the citizens to stop their fighting?"
Lucifer flew high in the sky. "He can't fly, but I can. And I say that you've had enough fun. You're putting the lives of the citizens in danger! What kind of people are you?"
"The strong have the responsibility to use their powers with care. You two are acting like snobbish kids!"
While talking, he used some of his Sonic voice to increase his voice. While he was doing it, he believed he might as well get some respect from the citizens to help him in the future.
"Who are you to call me a kid!" Clarisse said. "Just because you can fly, you think you can do anything?"
Clarisse waved her hand, sending winds to attack Lucifer.
Lucifer snapped his fingers.
Poof~
With a snap of his fingers, all the winds disappeared.
"You've been doing it for a year. I've been doing it for eight," Lucifer lazily said.
He pointed his finger at Clarisse, casting a barrier around her.
After trapping Clarisse in a spherical barrier, he made the barrier land on the ground.
Lucifer also landed before the barrier. "Now, are you ready to listen?"
"You caught her."
"Nope. I caught you both!" Lucifer said, trapping Zale in the same Barrier. "And you two will only be let out after saying sorry to each other."
He made both the spherical prison rest before each other while he stood in the back, keeping his arms folded.
"You think this can stop me?" Clarisse asked, glaring at Lucifer. It wasn't the first time she had faced something like this, and she knew how to get out.
"I hoped I wouldn't need to use this. But..."
She started taking off her gloves.
