Lucifer was angry. "If you don't satisfy me today, I'll let you know what it means to be knocked down with a single strike! Testing out something you've never even used before on me? Am I too merciful, or have you just gotten full of yourself?" With a flick of his wrist, he pulled out a long staff he hadn't used in years.
Seeing this side of Lucifer for the very first time, I figured I had better explain. "I never dared to use this form before. I hadn't even fully mastered my own power yet—if I had used this on top of that, I would have lost control completely! It's fine now, though. Besides, I've been busy hunting down Evil Gods lately, and if I hadn't laid eyes on this heavy staff today, I probably would have forgotten all about it entirely! That's why I came to you to test its power; I was afraid I'd beat anyone else to death with a single strike!"
Lucifer's expression softened considerably. "Get on with it then! Making such a fuss just to switch forms—anyone else would have beaten you to death by now."
