Lucan instantly replied, ''I would! But I really can't control it either! It is just that the golden butterfly likes me!'', as he sighed.
The leader slime felt dejected. He put his head down, having a solemn expression, but a change occurred.
Lucan's golden butterfly flew back to him as it landed on his fingers. Following it, the rest of the golden butterflies flew towards him.
They all landed on him at the same time. Some flew around him, a few nuzzled him, while others directly landed on him.
The leader slime's jaw dropped, his eyes blinked constantly, and he even rubbed his eyes. He gushed, ''I am not hallucinating! Lucan! What the hell is happening?''.
He was also wondering about this scene as golden light emerged from his body. He was glowing like a lamp lit up by flames.
He slowly started to float. The leader slime was tongue-tied as he beamed, ''Lucan! Explain this! Why are you flying now?''.
Lucan replied, ''I don't know! But I sense no danger! Instead, this feels comfortable and relaxing! We can only wait and watch!''.
After a few minutes, all of the golden butterflies gently placed him down. They were careful as if they were holding a baby. Then, they flew back, leaving behind only Lucan's golden butterfly.
He was suddenly taken into the white room. This time, there was only a paper. Golden-yellow letters stated, ''Lucan! We fixed your backlash!'', his eyes widened.
He wanted to verify whether this was true or not, so he instantly left the white room. The leader slime spoke, ''Lucan! You suddenly turned into golden light and vanished! Now, you have appeared again!''.
Lucan thought about the white room. He chose to explain it later, as he now had to verify the truth.
He replied, ''Will you believe me now if I say my backlash is no more?'', the leader slime laughed heartily as he declared, ''If that is true! Haha! Then! Then! Hahaha!''.
Lucan frowned.
The leader slime finished, ''Alright! Alright! Then you are simply dreaming! Hahaha!'', Lucan nodded as he added, ''Look!''.
His hands waved as cosmic energy surged. He decided to simply create a fireball, as he knew he had never tried it before. If this was successfully created, it meant his backlash had vanished.
Fire condensed into his palm. It shaped into a small round sphere. The fire turned bigger and bigger until it reached the size of his palm.
He threw it at the sky. He waved another hand, and a lump of water condensed into a sphere. He quickly made it bigger and threw it against the fireball.
Boom! Black smoke erupted. Both of them coughed. As the smoke cleared, the leader slime was astonished. Lucan also looked at himself, equally stunned.
Both said at the same time, ''No backlash!''.
Both of them looked into each other's eyes. They turned speechless, their cognition completely confused.
As these scenes occurred, the golden butterfly flew towards his nose. It cuddled him tightly. The force was enough to hold him, yet it felt harmless and affectionate.
Lucan chuckled, ''Hehe! You truly are great, Golden Butterfly!''.
Outside, blue guy was lying down on a bed-like structure. He was still unconscious. There was a door which led to him, and a slime walked out.
Pink girl, fate guy, and the other slimes were waiting outside. Pink girl asked, ''Is he fine? Please tell me he is fine!''.
The slime patted her as it replied, ''He is safe and alive! But we don't know when he could wake up!
His burns and scars cannot be healed! We can only reduce the danger! You need a time-controlling expert to reverse his injuries!''.
Pink girl laughed with deep satisfaction. She exclaimed with joy. He was alive, which itself was the greatest news she could have hoped to hear.
But a bit of sadness could also be seen in her expression. Where could she find a time-controlling expert? Fate guy heaved a huge sigh of relief.
If he had died too, fate guy's situation would have turned worse. Luckily, blue guy had survived.
In space, a short distance away, Great Lord was laughing heartily as he shouted, ''Weaklings! Hmm! You are all boring! How can you call yourselves elites! Get lost! Killing you!
Wait! Attacking you itself is a disgrace to my pride!''.
He flew away. This was another space station, and it was completely crushed and destroyed.
However, none of the aliens were dead. Great Lord left them alive because they were not even worth noticing. Killing them was pointless for him.
Only opponents like Lucan could interest him.
The head of the space station sighed, ''This guy! After getting the Pride Crystal, he is growing stronger and stronger!
Demons are rising while we righteous are falling! We cannot allow him to grow anymore!''.
His subordinates also nodded, but one asked, ''But who can stop him?''.
Their morale fell and hit rock bottom.
The head spoke, ''I have contacted the main space station! We will get reinforcements! The person who is coming also possesses a crystal!''.
Their fallen morale surged again. Many cheered.
''Great Lord will die now! Yeah!''
''Hehe! Finally, that demon will be executed! I can't wait for his death!''
''What about that human, Lucan?''
All of their expressions turned pale. Lucan had gone missing ever since the last fight. His whereabouts were unknown. Even Great Lord couldn't find him.
Nobody knew he had crashed into a star and returned back to the planet of slimes because he was carried by the golden butterfly, which was legendary and mysterious.
The head said, ''No worries! He is definitely weaker than Great Lord! Once he comes out, we will deal with him! Hehe! But only after Great Lord is killed!
Before that, I order none of you to take action against him!''.
Everybody agreed and nodded in unison because they knew Great Lord and Lucan had some sort of connection.
Back in the chamber, Lucan laughed joyfully! His backlash had indeed been removed permanently! He held onto the golden butterfly, patted it, and thanked it.
Lucan wanted to have a good relationship with this golden butterfly. If he could strengthen it, it would benefit him, so he would not hesitate to do so.
He had once said, ''If evil things lead me to my goal, I will become a demon, cruel and merciless! If good things lead me to my goal, I will become a kind saint!''.
The leader slime also smiled gently. Internally, he thought, ''Is this the Lucan I know!? Isn't he evil!? Doesn't he hate acting like this!? Holy moly! I can't believe my own eyes! Today, I saw countless impossible things becoming possible!''.
Lucan explained to him everything he knew about the golden butterfly, its abilities, its nature, and much more. The leader slime was happy, as he got a few valuable and precious pieces of information from Lucan.
After a few hours of discussion, both decided to leave the chamber. Lucan had a doubt.
''Will my golden butterfly return to its home or follow me?''
He stopped walking. The leader slime also saw the scene. His golden butterfly was in the middle, hesitant to make a decision, whether to go back home or go with Lucan.
Lucan sat down. He said, ''Let's wait here! We can let it make the decision! Come, leader slime!''.
The leader slime sat down as he whispered into his ears, ''But what if you lose the golden butterfly, Lucan!?''.
His lips curled up, his teeth were visible, and he grinned as he responded,
''Hehe! If I forcibly take the golden butterfly, do you think it will like me? Will it think about me? What do I get except hatred?
Sometimes, situations can be solved naturally! We do not need to interfere! If the butterfly decides to stay back, I will simply walk away. If it decides to follow me, I will take it with me!
In any case! I have no regrets! Hehe!''
