[ It only isn't that simple because Rincewind is choosing not to make it that simple! ]
Of that, I have every intention. [ ...of seeing how Lucifer could be put to use for his benefit in the long run. But he leaves it at that, implying he has no intention of interacting with this notorious Lucifer. ]
You are not the first person who noted him as a highly dangerous man. But even highly dangerous men can be defeated. As a matter of fact, it seems far more likely that he will be defeated. He has made himself numerous enemies. And from my understanding, he was contained and powerless in this world once before.
My advice to you is either suffer and hope others will eventually take him down or subtly stir them into action against him. You are not a man who can lead this revolution, not with the position you are in, but you are a man who can stoke the fires of rebellion and see the mighty fall from his weathered pedestal -- a pedestal simply awaiting the right push to crumble beneath him.
