Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 534 - 534: Third Summon

Even though he didn't need to talk so much to Jenilia since he could kill her easily, he remembered that she had helped him before. Moreover, she could still be of use in getting inside Triton.

There were many Warlocks here when he arrived, but Jenilia was the weakest. She was just an intern in the Warlock Council, so she wasn't close to as strong as the other Warlocks that were here.

Moreover, she was also the least threatening. If he needed to take a hostage to get some insider information, she was the perfect person. She didn't need to be concerned about her in the least.

Also, if he needed to leave one person alive here, she was a better choice since she already knew him and helped him in the past as well, so she had an advantage compared to others.

"We didn't need to bother with your brother, did we? If we wanted this war, why would we kill him in another city? And if it was because we were scared of war, then why would we insult your envoys when they came here? There are just too many loopholes in the story of yours," Lucifer explained.

"And as far as the flight is concerned, you shouldn't forget something important either. Elisium only recently came out of a civil war. Not many people were traveling after that point in fear. So it's not surprising that only one person went on one flight."

"Anyway, I won't be killing you. I think you were just misled into thinking that we were the bad guys. But that's not true. We are just the warriors who wanted to take back our nation from the people that were bringing it down to the ground."

"And after that, we wanted to keep it safe and out of influence from other nations. We didn't want the Warlock Council to interfere in our matters. Were we wrong? We didn't harm the envoy that came here. We let her leave safely. Why? And after that, we were attacked. Were we wrong or you?"

Seeing Jenilia not answering, Lucifer turned his back on her. "I'll leave you to think about it. Even though the answer is right before your eyes, you can take as long as you want to think about it."

"Four minutes are already over. Where exactly is that guy?" Lucifer walked back to Kellian and the others. "How long does it take to complete a formation?"

"It should've been faster. It took him less time to call out that cat. I'm not sure why it's taking him long."

"Does the time depend on the strength of the beast they intend to call?" Lucifer asked, frowning.

"That is the case, but which beast can take longer than the space manipulation cat? If it's actually the case, that beast would be pretty strong."

"That's good. The stronger, the better," Lucifer smiled.

"Why does it look like you wanted him to call out a beast? Instead of attacking him, you let him run?"

Lucifer didn't answer. Instead, he kept his focus on the time on the clock. There were only thirty seconds left in the deadline, and Zhu was nowhere in sight.

"Thirty seconds more. And you can leave."

"Should we really leave? What about you?"

"You don't need to be concerned about me. I have my ways to take him out."

"But his cat... He can go back in time. We'll all end up back here eventually. So is it really good?" Tristan asked.

"Better than you all staying behind for him to use you against me. Just get ou-"

"Hmm? You're back."

Lucifer could see Zhu back. He was standing in the distance with the cat and the Snake. There was no other beast with him.

"So you took them out in my absence? Why leave this one girl alive? Do you have a crush on her?" Zhu asked, glancing at Jenilia. "I'll again have to work on bringing them back. Oh well, I should just let them be. I'll think about them later."

"Ten seconds left," Lucifer declared, ignoring everything else.

"Nine...."

"Eight..."

"Sev-"

Lucifer reached the count of seven to stop. He could feel the ground vibrating slowly.

It wasn't just under his feet but all around him.

The vibration soon stopped, and the ground between Zhu and Lucifer split apart, wide, and a dark shadow flew out of the split. The shadows circled in the sky once before landing in the ground before Zhu, revealing itself to be a winged creature.

The dragon-like creature was completely black, so much so that it was hard to distinguish it from a shadow when it was moving.

It had two short feet that were shorter compared to his size and a big stomach. There was a lizard-like head on this creature, and two black wings remained spread wide behind him.

There were only five seconds left before five minutes were going to be over. The Dark Dragon flew straight towards Lucifer, flying even faster than the speed of light as it attacked Tristan.

Tristan brought his Sword out, not waiting for this thing to get close to him. A dark arc of light left his sword and towards the Dark Dragon.

The Dragon didn't stop and simply used his claws to stop the attack as it continued.

"You're pretty good, aren't you? That's perfect!" Lucifer muttered as he stepped before Tristan. "I'll take it from here."

Just to see the strength of the Dragon, he cast a barrier before him. The Dragon slashed with his claws, shattering the powerful barrier which impressed Lucifer even more.

Lucifer finally moved. Still, three seconds were left in five minutes

The Dragon slashed towards Lucifer's neck to take him out fast to kill Tristan at the last second.

Lucifer took a deep beast before yelling as loud as he could. The claws of the Dragon that was coming towards him stopped as the Dragon roared like crazy because of the supersonic sound coming from Lucifer's lips.

It was one of the abilities he had stolen. Even though it was powerful enough to kill the enemy when used in close proximity, it wasn't strong enough to kill the Dragon, but he didn't want to kill either.

It served a different purpose. As the beasts were more sensitive towards the noise, it worked even more to distract them. Not only the Dragon but even the black cat and the snake started making noise in pain.

The Dragon was distracted momentarily as he felt like his ears were going to start bleeding.. He had forgotten his command and the mission entirely.
