Chapter 925 – Promoted to Furniture
One hour.
That was all Lux had.
One hour before he had to walk into the Upper Realm again, sit across from Celestaria, Archon Vizreel, and several council members who were probably already sharpening their divine side-eyes, and discuss why the King of Hell had suddenly decided to perform public diplomacy theft on a livestream while his own market value fell through the floor.

In theory.
Unfortunately, theory did not account for Sira.
Sira, daughter of Pride, menace in expensive skin, was still perched on his lap like the couch had rejected her application and Lux had been promoted to furniture. She had one arm loosely around his shoulders, her cheek near his temple, and every few seconds she shifted just enough to remind him she was absolutely not helping his concentration.
Lux stared at the system screens.
Sira hummed.
Lux scrolled through hidden reports.
Sira traced lazy circles near his collar.
