Inhuman Warlock

"An hour?" Caen asked, surprised. "Don't tell me you used your abilities on me again?!"

"Correction. I didn't use them on you. I used that on the whole forest to make it easier for me to hunt," Salazar replied. "Anyway, light the fire. My stomach will start growling if you don't hurry!"

"Then you shouldn't have slowed down time. I would have been back long ago. Everything would've been set up by now," Caen expressed, shaking his head.

He started setting everything up.

...

"Ah, a-are you sure I won't fall? I mean, I would prefer to walk! I don't want to fall to my death!" A yell filled the surrounding, coming from a man who was flying but not because of his abilities.

His face was pale as he looked down, realizing that he was thousands of feet above the ground now. When he heard Lucifer say that he was taking him, he didn't expect it would be like this.

"Don't worry. You won't be falling that easily. I flew three hundred kilometers carrying two men like that. I think I can safely carry one," Lucifer replied.

"I don't think we're going in the right direction either. Dalia Capital should be in that direction. We're going the wrong way!" Heath reminded Lucifer.

"I know. We're not going to Dalia directly. I need to pick some people up along the way," Lucifer answered.

"You mean Caen and Salazar? You talked about them!"

"That's right. They'll be coming with us too. Can't leave them in the middle," Lucifer replied. "We're there already—just a few more minutes.

...

Caen and Salazar finished cooking the rabbits, and they were just about to start eating but stopped in the middle, noticing a young boy landed before them.

The silver-haired boy picked up one of the rabbits and started eating.

"Perfect timing. I was just starting to get hungry," he said, eating.

"Ah, you're back. How did it go? And who is this guy?"

"It went well. But apparently, I made a mistake. These guys weren't behind the attacks. The Dalia Military had attacked our planes. As for why they did that, only they can answer," Lucifer answered, sitting nearby.

"That still doesn't explain who this man is? Is he also a Warlock?" Salazar asked. "Are you bringing him with us on the mission?"

"Not at all. He's just the only survivor of that place. Since he helped me by telling me the truth, I decided to give him a ride to the Capital. If Dalia were actually behind it, they'd die. And if they weren't, and he was lying, then he would die," Lucifer casually replied.

Standing in the back, Heath wiped his sweat. He was standing in front of three Warlocks who could kill him in an instant. This also made him think about something.

It made him realize how strength mattered so much in this world. Before absolute strength, no weapons are enough. The ones who hold the strength can decide someone's life and death so easily.

Salazar and Caen also picked up one rabbit each and started eating.

"Are you hungry?" Lucifer asked, noticing Heath standing in the back silently.

"N-no," Heath replied.

"Good. Then I'll take the last one," Lucifer said, picking up the last rabbit.

They finished eating and soon left for the Capital City of Dalia.

....

Back at the Capital of Elisium, Kellian was sitting in his office, staring at his laptop. He had tried calling Lucifer so many times, but that guy wasn't picking up. He couldn't understand why.

He was really curious as to where Lucifer was since he had also stopped sharing his location with Uprising.

He closed the laptop and stood up, moving his chair aside. He walked to the window, looking outside.

"I wonder what happened there. Is he alright? I haven't been able to contact him since he told me that he was going to attack the Militants. Did he destroy them already or...?"

Many questions floated in Kellian's head.

"That plane should be there to take them soon. It should always be mid-way by now."

Ring!

Kellian was talking to himself when his phone started ringing. He walked back to his table and picked up the call.

"Oh? The president of Afria agreed to surrender his nation to us? Good. Stay there and take care of everything else." Kellian told the other person over the phone. He put the phone down before walking back to the window.

"That makes it five. Only five more nations to go now. The progress is faster than even I expected," he muttered, observing the streets of Elisium.

"Now, we rule over six nations, including Elisium. But now is also when the real problem will begin. I can feel the other nations starting to get concerned. They won't stay out of it for long."

"Even the Warlock Council has sent another Envoy to Elisium. He'll be there by tomorrow, and we can't even blow them up, or it'll make them sure that we were behind the last accident too. Things are starting to get noisy."

"Things are progressing too fast."

....

In another part of the continent, a plane was flying towards the Nation of Elisium, but it wasn't alone. This time, it was being escorted by five fighter jets as a show of force since it was the plane of the Warlock Council.

Their last plane came alone; that's why they sent five fighter jets with proper radars to protect the plane this time.

The plane was also taking a different route this time for some reason.

Inside the plane, two people were sitting. As for the two of them, they were both women.

One of them was a woman who seemed to be in her late thirties.

The Dark-haired woman had two bunny-like ears coming out of her head, which oddly suited her and made her look even cuter. She was also dressed in a revealing black dress.

Looking at her looks, no one could have guessed that she was a high-ranking Warlock in the Warlock Council. She was known as Jia.

As for the second woman, she was none other than Jenilia that had met Lucifer twice.

The Warlock Council had only sent Jia as an envoy, but Jenilia had also decided to join in as she heard someone mention that there was a good chance that Elisium was behind the explosion in their plane, which caused the death of her brother.

She wanted to get to the end of it and find the truth behind her brother's death. She wanted to destroy whoever took her brother from her after finding that person.

Surprisingly, the Warlock Council also accepted her request and let her accompany Jia.
