Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 161 - 161: Sudden Demand

"I don’t know; I don’t feel good about leaving Lucifer behind."

"Don’t worry; the babysitter will take care of him. We need to control that Dungeon. Zeiss is busy. We need to help out, or many people will die."

"You’re right but still, sigh. Fine. We would be out for weeks, but I guess you’re right. She should be able to take care of Lucifer."

A man and a woman were talking to each other.

The woman glanced in the distance where a five-year-old kid was sitting. She walked up to the kid before touching his cute cheeks.

"I’m so sorry, Lucifer. But mamma and papa need to leave. We will be back pretty soon. You can stay without us, right? My baby is a big boy now, right?" The lady asked the kid

"Of course he is. He is my son after all," the man laughed as he also approached. "I’m sorry, son, but the world needs us. We won’t be gone for long. And when we come, we’re going to make it up to you."

"How will you?" The lady asked the man.

"How about we take a vacation after that? Lucifer hasn’t seen Orion Beach, right? Even though it’s a bit far, it’s a beautiful place: the sunset, the wind, the water. Everything is just heavenly. My father used to take me there. I think we should go on a vacation there. It would be the best vacation," the man told the lady. "I want him to see that place."

"Orion beach, huh? You’re right. That place is pretty. I was also thinking about taking Lucifer there. We haven’t taken many vacations anyways," the lady answered as she nodded.

She picked up a bowl of soup and started feeding the kid with a spoon.

The man opened his lips to speak.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

As soon as the man opened his lips, a sound of knocking came instead of the words.

The man kept speaking, but no words came out, only a knocking sound.

The boy looked in confusion. What was happening? Why was this knocking sound coming? As the young boy was thinking, everything started turning blurry.

"Father, what’s happening!" The boy said, but it didn’t seem like anyone could hear.

"Father!" The boy again called out, but everything turned black.

"Father, wait!" Lucifer said as he reached out his hand.

His eyes opened wide as he realized that he was only dreaming. He was still in the room at the Variant Uprising facility. This whole thing was just a dream, but it wasn’t a fake dream.

He finally remembered that it actually happened. He was just seeing the flashback in his memories of his last moment with his parents.

As his eyes opened from sleep, he realized that the knocking sound was still coming. It was coming from the door as someone was knocking again and again.

"These people... Broke my dream. I had finally seen my parents again, and now they’re gone once more," Lucifer muttered as he tried to remember the dream again, but most of it was blurry now.

He only remembered a few things about the dream.

"Orion Beach... I should see the place they wanted to take me. Their last wish. Even though they can’t come with me, I will go. They wanted me to see, and I will, in any case," Lucifer muttered as he got off the bed and walked towards the door.

He opened the door and asked, "What?"

Draco was standing on the other end of the door.

"Sir Lucifer, Sir Vega had called for you," Draco told Lucifer.

"Alright. I’m coming," Lucifer said as he stepped out. He was already dressed, and he didn’t need anything else to leave.

He followed after Draco, who brought him inside a lift. Through the lift, they went up.

Draco brought Lucifer to the room where Vega was waiting for him. The two entered the room to find Kellian and Yaliza sitting there too.

This was the first time Lucifer was seeing them, so he seemed a bit curious.

"Lucifer, please have a seat," Vega told Lucifer.

Lucifer stepped forward and sat before Vega.

"So, Lucifer, we-"

Vega had only started speaking before Lucifer cut him off. "Wait."

"What happened?" Vega asked.

"I need food before I can talk," Lucifer answered.

His answer was enough to make everyone inside the room go blank. What did he mean he needed food? It was an important meeting.

"You want food?" Vega asked.

"I had just woken up when I was called for this meeting. I’m still hungry as I haven’t eaten anything in a long time," Lucifer answered.

"Hahaha," Vega burst into laughter, finding himself amused.

He looked at Draco before he continued, "Alright, Draco, bring some food for our little guest."

Draco left the room, still amazed at Lucifer. He was a kid, but he was like royalty here. He could say anything and do anything before the leaders, and no one could do anything to him.

He believed that even if Lucifer killed him, the higher-ups weren’t even going to scold Lucifer, let alone punishing him.

It was clear, Lucifer was an unofficial leader in Variant Uprising now, just like Caen. And he could be even more in the future.

"As he brings your food, shall we talk?" Vega asked Lucifer, smiling gently.

"Yes."

"So, Lucifer. First, let me introduce you to these two people. He is Kellian," Vega said as he pointed towards the knight-like gentleman on his left.

He also pointed towards the dark-clothed man on the other end as he introduced, "He is Yaliza. They are two of our best fighters and high-ranking members of our family.

Lucifer glanced at the two of them, still confused. What was the purpose of this meeting? Was it related to his eyes that had shocked even the APF? Were these people going to hurt him?

"I want to talk to you about something too," Lucifer replied to Vega, expressing his thoughts too.

"Huh? Sure. You go first," Vega said.
