Hollow

Lucifer was sitting in his room, thinking on his next course of action.

First of all, he needed to find a way to revive his parents. There was always the [wish] spell and he was going to test it in a few moments.

Then, he needed to find their graves and he still hadn't found out what happened to his father.

After that, he needed to find his friends, if any were still alive from angels of hell.

Lucifer closed his eyes, letting out a soft sigh. It was hard to believe everything that was happening. His initial plans to introduce himself to the world as a benevolent man had been foiled so now he needed to find another way to do it.

He could always play the role of a superhero or something similar. He thought he could probably do a good job of it. His powers would definitely make it quite easy to save people and defeat villains. But that plan had some issues. For one, he was going to need a secret identity and another, he would become very famous very quickly and that wouldn't be very good for him or his parents. He wasn't sure how the government would react to a powerful being like him. The last thing he wanted was to get caught.

No, why be a superhero.

When he could always be a adventurer.

Well that was the wrong term, he was too used to mmorpg's.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

He would join a mercenary team in a disguise. He needed more information about the world anyways and Hiroshi had told him how mercenary teams were very common these days, you could just go to a any city, find the place where you hire them (he forgot the name) and hire them to stuff for you.

It could range from assassination to robbery to finding a lost pet.

There were all sorts of gigs.

Lucifer had already decided that he would be hiding his powers for a little while. The reason was simple – he needed to see how much technology had advanced and understand how the world worked. If he had to take on a disguise for a while, he would do it. This would also allow him to get familiar with the people of this time.

He could always pretend that he was using cybernetics, he would just have to use a p2w item to change his skin temporarily.

That was a good thing to do anyway, people would be suspicious if there was suddenly someone with magic powers out of nowhere. Especially someone like him who could break the laws of physics. So it was a good idea to hide his abilities, just limit them to basic stuff so he could get away with it being technology. This would also allow him to get an identity and earn money, he had gold of course he could always use it but it was from hollow and he had no way to get more right now so it was extremely rare, he needed yen.

"I'm going to be so busy going forward."

Lucifer sighed, he was already feeling tired from his future plans and he hadn't even started.

His thoughts then shifted to something else.

His name.

"Lucifer or Hayate Sato.."

No, he had already decided on it.

This world was a clean slate for him.

The twenty year old human being known as Hayate Sato was no more.

"—My friends and parents, what do you think of me using this name? Are you happy? Are you displeased? If you have any objections, please let me know, tell me, "This is not a name you can take for yourself." I will gladly return to my old name of Hayate."

Now, he was Lucifer The Light bringer.

The fallen angel of light.

A demon.

A person who will "save" this world.
