Inhuman Warlock-Novel

Chapter 754

More stones came out from the pocket of Lucifer. Within seconds, hundreds of stones were circling around him like they were plants and he was their origin.

After floating for two hours, Lucifer's fingers finally moved as he came out of his unconsciousness. His eyes slowly opened.

He controlled his body, making it stand straight as he started observing the surroundings.

Using his right hand, he tapped the corner of his eyes, removing something wet.

Reaching out his hand, he touched one of the stones. Even amongst the hundreds of stones, he was able to recognise the newly formed ones.

The stones landed on his fingers, tapping them lightly.

"Death and life... Go to sleep." He waved his left hand, casting a spatial Portal. All the stones entered the Portal before it disappeared.

Lucifer looked into the distance, taking a moment to come out of his daze.

"What happened to me there? I felt like I lost control of my body? I was standing idly in the world, the next thing I knew, I was on my knees before star alliance? Why don't I remember anything that happened in between?" he muttered, frowning.

He couldn't remember a single second from the moment the younger Lucifer had taken over his body.

Shaking his head, he decided to stop thinking about it too much. A bigger portal appeared before him. He stepped inside the portal and disappeared.

....

The young Lucifer was back where he started, not knowing the things that had unfolded behind him.

Fortunately he wasn't at the beach this time. He was back where he had brought the people out of their compulsion.

He looked at the confused Variants behind him who seemed confused about their whereabouts.

"Seeing those people and seeing these... There's just no comparison."

Shaking his head in disappointment, he started flying away back to where his destination was.

After a short flight, he ended up in front of what appeared like an abandoned factory. The factory seemed like it hadn't been in use for decades. Even the locks were covered in dust.

From outside, it looked like it was in urgent need of repairs.

Lucifer landed before the small factory.

Through his shadows, he knew Mirali and Alexi were trying to contact Xaen. It didn't take them long before they managed to locate the Xaen as well.

Lucifer didn't know previously that there was a protocol between all the Great Family Heads on how to contact each other.

They all knew how to get in contact with each other in case of emergencies. They used the same route to contact all the Great Family Heads and Xaen, leaving a message for them.

As Xaen was more careful, he made sure to check if there was any trap or not before coming out. He also made sure that they weren't in a sealed spade.

Fortunately he had live reports about Lucifer being in the restaurant so he didn't need to be too careful.

After meeting Alexi and Mirali, he took the both of them with him.

The shadow of Lucifer came with them, sneaking in the shadow of Alexi without being caught.

Xaen had also contacted other Great Family Heads, telling them to get to the capital city while being careful.

All the Great Families that lived in the Capital had lost their heads at the hands of Lucifer.

There were eight families. Lucifer had killed three family heads who lived in the capital. One had already left the nation after hearing the warning from Lucifer.

Alexi and Mirali were still alive along with two more who lived in the Southern and the Northern Part of the Nation. The distance was long but Xaen helped them as well, bringing them inside the factory as well.

Tracing his shadow, Lucifer also reached the factory but he remembered the warning of Xaen as well. Just as Xaen had said, there was a good chance that this place was going to explode if he tried to break inside.

Fortunately, he had other ways now. His figure disappeared as he appeared inside the factory without much trouble.

Knowing the route to follow, he kept teleporting from place to place as he went deeper and deeper into the factory.

...

In the depths of the factory, there existed a secret lab of Xaen.

Five people stood in the Lab. Except Xaen, Mirali, Alexi and the other two heads were also here.

Xaen's hand still hadn't recovered completely. He was looking at the bed behind him. A woman was lying on the bed, unmoving.

"May I ask why we're hiding here when that guy is running around everywhere, causing havoc?"

"Exactly! Xaen, Alexi, Mirali, what were you doing? Why didn't you stop him?"

"You two weren't here. You haven't seen him fight. He already killed three of us. Do you think we're dealing with a kid? He might've been our student in the past but he's a completely different person now," Alexi responded to the two family heads that were questioning them.

"Moreover, I don't even know how many abilities he truly has. He isn't a weak person. Just look at the hands of Xaen! You think he did it to himself? We all tried. It's not that simple."

"Maybe you didn't try hard enough."

"You mean the ones who died didn't try hard? Who wouldn't try when their lives were on line? Stop your nonsense!" Mirali yelled in rage. "Stop mocking the sacrifice of my friends!"

"I'm not mocking. I'm just telling the truth! No matter how strong he is, he's still a kid! And you're hiding here from a kid?"

"You want to fight the kid? Go ahead. I won't stop you," Alexi retorted. "But just know, we won't come to save your ass either!"

"Everyone, calm down. It's not the time to didn't between ourselves." Xaen looked back at the group.

"Lucifer is different. He looks like a kid but he's much more than a kid. You don't know about him. Let me tell you what I know about him."

He walked to the screen before him and turned the screen on.

"The boy named Lucifer Azarel was born in the house of Zale Azarel, who was a part of the main group that killed the General of the First Great War."

He started giving briefings about Lucifer that was known by him, including his birth, his awakening and all the people he had killed so far.

"What's worse is that he can absorb the ability of the people he killed.. So he might have a thousand abilities or even more. We're not fighting one kid, we're fighting thousands of Warlocks in one body!"
