[3rd POV]
After asking her question, Lucifer looked at the man in question, as he tried to not pale at the question. This woman had just appeared out of nowhere, proclaimed herself as THE Lucifer, and openly showed off the fact that she casually killed the Lucifer that they all knew, the one that was stronger than any other demon, shadow hunter, and was stronger than most Angels.
A woman that casually stopped the entire Downworlder onslaught with a singular flex of her mighty power, stopping them in their tracks as they could only stare at her in awe. They all felt the instinctive submissive force weighing upon them, the power that Lucifer held over them as their God, as their Apex.
"So, how should I punish you? After all, you can't possibly think you'll be getting out of this, do you?" Lucifer asked with a tilt of her head, her family watching as they struggled not to giggle at the faces that everyone was making at what she had said.
"Wh-what makes you think you can punish me? You're just a demon like the rest of them, one swipe of my blade and you'll die" Valentine said, as he lifted his Seraph Blade. At these words, Lucifer raised an eyebrow as she looked at him like he was an idiot, which...with what he just said, he certainly sounded like one.
"Did you not see me casually take the Mortal Blade? Do you not see it in my hands? I know that you aren't the brightest, but by father you truly are an idiot" Lucifer said bluntly, as she swung the mortal blade once, its glow illuminating the area as she gripped it.
It was obvious to Lucifer that Valentine was just saying this in order to try and get his followers to attack her, but it seems even they weren't dumb enough to do that as they all stared at her in fear, their weapons lowering slowly as they realized that this was not a fight that they could ever hope to win.
"At least your followers aren't as dumb as you. Sure they're idiots for following you in the first place, but they're bright enough to understand that you have no chance" Lucifer said with a snort, as she glanced at them, the followers tossing their blades to the ground one by one.
"You!-You cowards!" Valentine yelled at them, as Lucifer glanced at the other Shadowhunters in the room, noticing Jace and Clary staring at her.
"Your father is quite dumb, isn't he? Hopefully you're a bit better than him, Clary Fairchild. Especially with that extra dash of angel blood in you" Lucifer said casually, before looking back at Valentine, who was not so subtly glancing around the room. He was trying to find a way out of this situation, but Lucifer wasn't having any of that.
"Alright, since you won't choose your punishment yourself, I will" Lucifer said as she looked over the man with a hum.
"What to do, what to do...killing you would be too easy. Sure Maze might have fun torturing you in hell, but that would be boring. I could let the Shadowhunters have you but...that would also be boring. Hmm...ah! I've got it!" Lucifer exclaimed with a grin, as she looked at the man.
"I hope you enjoy your punishment~" Lucifer said with an evil laugh, as she snapped her fingers and slowly a dark almost stone like change began to travel over his skin, as his eyes widened in horror. But before he could even so much as scream out, he was completely and utterly turned into a...statue.
Looking at his statue form, Lucifer smiled as she turned to the flabbergasted Shadowhunters "I hope you've got room for him. He'll be in this form for...well, ever. I also added the punishments of always feeling like he has to sneeze but never being able to, an itch on his crotch that he cannot get rid of, that annoying buzzing sensation you get from your arm or foot falling asleep, and the feeling of having something in his eye but never being able to rub it off" Lucifer listed, as their eyes widened in more and more horror.
"Oh, and his mind will never break from this, so he'll be watching everything without his mind shattering. Maybe he'll be let go once he repents, but that'll be up to him, and will likely take hundreds of years, maybe even thousands, who knows!" Lucifer said as if it was no big deal.
The punishment itself was...a bit brutal, but Lucifer really didn't like Valentine and had seen all the horrid things he had done in the past, a lot of it to children as young as only a few hours old. He was not someone that deserved to die easily, so, she gave him a punishment that would make him suffer for every moment of his life from now on, for all of eternity.
And nothing could break him free, not the Shadowhunters, not the Downworlders, not the Warlocks, and not the Angels. Not a single being in this multiverse would be able to, especially since she was effectively the God of this Multiverse at this point, or at least would be within a few days.
"Hmm, where should I put you? I mean, I'd like for you to watch everything so you have to watch as the Shadowhunters begin to forget about you, begin to remember you as nothing but some old statue...so I'll just put you over...here" Lucifer said, as she levitated his form into a corner, smiling as she gave her decision a nod of agreement...with herself.
"Good good, now that that is over with...I'll be getting rid of this little thing" Lucifer said, as the Mortal Blade began to slowly transform into motes of light, being infused into Sidus, which would grant it a few new abilities that might actually be useful.
At the same time, a glow formed in her left palm as the Mortal Cup formed, teleported to her from where Valentine had hidden it. The Shadowhunters looked at the cup in shock, and were even more shocked as Lucifer looked to her right and smiled.
"You can come out, none of them will try anything against any of you" Lucifer said, as her family revealed themselves.
Looking to Bloom, Lucifer handed the cup into her hands, as the girl looked at it in awe.
"Here's your gift, do you like it?" Lucifer asked, as Bloom nodded rapidly.
"It's incredible, Mom, thank you!" Bloom said with a bright smile, as she wrapped her arms around Lucifer, giving her a big hug as Lucifer just smiled, rubbing her daughters head as she held the mortal cup.
"Y-You can't just give that away! That is property of Idris" Alec said nervously, causing Lucifer to look at the man.
"Not any longer, child. It's my daughters now. With the amount of trouble these mortal items are causing, it is best no one has access to them any longer, well, besides someone who I know for a fact won't use it. And your "Idris" means nothing to me, Alec Lightwood, I am far above following the rules of something like that" Lucifer replied calmly, not blaming the kid, as he was technically right, but...she didn't really care.
She knew for a fact that Idris and its rulers were incredibly corrupt, and full blown racist. And she would not be interacting with racists, everyone hated racists.
"Bu-But-" "Can you offer us something in return, Lady Lucifer?" Magnus cut in, stopping Alec from saying anything dumb.
"Lord Lucifer, Lady Lucifer is my wife" Lucifer said, motioning to Alice who was looking over the Mortal Cup with the girls.
"Lord Lucifer, can you offer us anything in return? You must understand that that item is incredibly important to the Shadowhunters, and should it not be returned, it could cause some serious problems" Magnus said as Lucifer raised an eyebrow.
"Quite the respectful one, huh? Although I guess that was to make sure your boyfriend didn't say anything stupid. Alright, I can give you a reward in return" Lucifer said, as she flicked her wrist, as a glowing book began to form.
"This is a book on every angelic rune, use it well. Although I will warn that certain runes have been taken from it, as some are...better off not utilized. I trust that that is a fair trade?" Lucifer asked, as the Shadowhunters looked at the glowing book in awe, as it emanated an almost angelic power.
"That...that is more than enough, thank you Lord Lucifer" Alec said with a bow, as he took the book with grace, but paused when he heard Lucifer's next line of words.
"I've also taken the liberty of helping you with the weakness of this place. Because my father is that Angelic core awful, I mean really, how can you make something so dangerous, but make it so easy to destroy? I've upgraded it a bit and connected all the angelic cores of every institute, they're now impossible to truly destroy, so you won't need to worry about that any longer, same with keeping them running, as they are self sufficient" Lucifer added, deciding to be nice since her daughter loved this universe so much.
"Thank you Lord Lucifer, that truly is an incredible gift to all Shadowhunters throughout the world" Alec said in awe, knowing that that reward truly was incredible, and not only that, but it was far better than the Mortal Cup that they never utilized, at least not anymore.
"I know, that's why I gave it to you. Now, we'll be off! I'll be in town for a few more days, so try not to bother me, will you?" Lucifer said with a small smile on her face, as the family teleported off, ready to explore the world for a few days.
______________________
The rest of the time in the world of Shadowhunters had been spent traveling to Institutes around the world, and giggling as Bloom became a fangirl every time she saw something that was interesting.
All the while, Lucifer had ended up becoming the God of this Multiverse, which included the Book universe for Shadowhunters. Every sun, every heaven, every hell, all of it was under her, as her power had grown once again. And finally, after an entire week of being in the Shadowhunters universe, the family had decided to leave.
"You girls ready to go?" Lucifer asked, as her daughters nodded.
"You excited baby?" Lucifer asked, pecking her wife on the lips, causing her daughters to let out sounds of "Ew" which got a giggle out of her.
"Mmmhmm, you know how much I've wanted to visit this universe Luci. And it also means that Rose can have a good education at a High School, what more could I want?" Alice replied, as Lucifer smiled, the glow around them beginning to form, as she spoke.
"Well then, off we go to our next home!"

After the words had left her mouth, they had all disappeared from the Shadowhunters multiverse and reappeared in the new one. Lucifer immediately felt the difference in this place, the unique magic, the nature and the way it was almost...sentient.
But more than that, she noticed the surroundings, and the sign that caught their eye, for they knew exactly where they were, as Lucifer smirked, and spoke.
"Well loves, we're here! Welcome to...New Orleans"
