Shattered Destiny : Fate

Chapter 8: I am Lucius



Lucius: Hey, Ajax. I'm Lucius, your second personality. Nice to meet you.

Ajax: Nice to meet you too, Lucius.

Ajax: What does "Lucius" mean? And why call yourself that?

Lucius: "Lucius" means light. As for why I chose it… I am a part of a greater being. I am the God of Light—enlightenment and knowledge.

Ajax: A god?

Lucius: Yes, Ajax. To become a god, one must attain celestial prowess. Mortals, demons, and even angels can achieve this by excelling in a specific domain tied to their essence. Mastering that domain elevates them to godhood—because, in truth, we already are gods in potential.

Ajax: …That's not confusing at all.

Ajax: Can you read my mind?

Lucius: I am your mind, Ajax. I just have a mind of my own. I know everything you think, but I don't experience your feelings or emotions.

Ajax: That sounds terrifying. Can I turn you off? Or at least mute you?

Lucius: I am yours to command, but unfortunately, I cannot be turned off.

Ajax: Great. Just don't talk while I'm sleeping. I'm a kid—I can barely concentrate on eating.

Lucius: Understood.

Lucius: But Ajax, I should warn you—having me in your mind won't be easy. At times, people might notice you getting lost in thought, and sometimes, you may even speak out loud by accident—out of frustration—instead of just thinking. It will take time for us to adjust to each other.

Ajax: Noted. Now let me sleep before someone comes looking for me.

Lucius: Rest well, Ajax.
