Chapter 968: Chapter 968: Stuck

"Not only that but Senior, are you saying that I was enough to bring someone like you on their knees? If that were the case, wouldn't it be embarrassing for the Star Alliance that Lucifer could be brought to his knees by a kid?"

"You!" The old man didn't even know how to respond. In the same breath, Lucifer had taunted him so many times. 

Not only did Lucifer subtly call him out for attacking someone weak like him despite his position, but at the same time, he also mocked the old man for failing so magnificently.

The old man was stuck between a rock and a hard place. If he agreed that Lucifer attacked on his own, that was quite embarrassing for him since it meant that the attack of a kid was enough to bring him down. 

It was much better if he went with the story that his own attack hit him. That way, it could at least save him some face. It was better to be hit by your own attack than be hit by a kid's attack and falling to knees.
