The atmosphere shifted dramatically as Jack instinctively stepped in front of Moon, his body tense and ready for whatever came next.

“Don’t worry about me, Jack. I’m strong enough to handle this,”

Moon said, her voice steady but her eyes focused.

Jack shook his head slightly, his expression grim.

“It’s not about your strength,”

he muttered, keeping his gaze locked on the figure before them.

“You really don’t recognize her?”

Moon tilted her head.

“Who?”

“Lucifer,”

Jack replied, his voice heavy with realization.

His newly enhanced eyes glowed faintly, revealing truths hidden from the normal gaze.

Moon's breath caught in her throat.

"Lucifer...?"

Jack nodded, his jaw clenched.

Jack’s fists tightened.

“You’ll have to go through me first.”

Lucifer sighed dramatically.

“Tch.”

With a flick of her fingers, Jack was sent flying by an unseen force.

The air shimmered where her power had passed, leaving Jack tumbling across the ground.

“Damn it,”

Jack spat, scrambling to his feet.

Moon's heart pounded.

"How did Lucifer become this strong?"

Lucifer’s voice filled the air with chilling calm.

“Let me show you the fruits of my labor—the training I’ve endured for years in the Peakwest.”
