Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 313 - 313: The Reason

Fortunately, it seemed like the bleeding had stopped. All the wounds were dressed. Moreover, Varant also seemed to be in less pain.

"Did you give him painkillers?" Lucifer asked Veracity.

"I did. I don’t want him to die from the pain. Even though he’s a Warlock King, we can’t ignore the possibility," Veracity responded.

"That’s good. Since I’m in a hurry to leave, we can’t waste time here. Let’s start right away," Lucifer said, observing Varant.

"Alright, Varant. You know what to do, don’t you? Start speaking. How did you all decide to kill my parents?" Lucifer asked.

"Tell me one thing honestly. Do you really think I’ll tell you? That’s the only leverage I have. I’m not naive enough to think that you’ll let me live after getting the answers," Varant said sarcastically. "In any case, death is better than living like this for me!"

" I think you would be pleased to know that you’re wrong. You don’t actually have a single leverage," Lucifer answered, shaking his head.

He further continued, "Just know, even though I want my answers from you, it doesn’t have to be you. I can also get them from Zeiss about why you all killed my parents. So you have no leverage in the least. it just depends on you if you want to have a painful death or a quick one."

"Because believe me when I say it, but I can give you such a painful death that you’ll beg me to make it quick. I leave the choice to you," he added. "You have five seconds to decide. As I said, I’m in a hurry."

Sitting in the distance, Ayn didn’t intervene. She didn’t know why but from the way Lucifer and Varant were talking, she had a bad feeling inside her heart.

It seemed like Lucifer really believed that Varant and the others killed his parents, and Varant didn’t deny it either.

She couldn’t help but wonder if it was true? Did Varant really betray Warlock King Zale? Did he really kill Clarisse and Zale?

Ayn didn’t even know what she was going to feel if it was true. That meant everything she was told was a lie. They weren’t the good guys?

Moreover, everything that Lucifer said was the truth. He was the one who suffered and all because of them? All because of their schemes?

It was all because they took his parents from him. It was their Karma that was coming to bite them in the a*s.

Also, if it was all here, then it could also be true that Varant killed Lucifer when he couldn’t even resist. Many questions floated in her head, and the only person who could answer was Varant.

She didn’t even try to help him.

"Your three seconds are over. What have you decided?" Lucifer asked Varant as time passed.

" As you said, it’s not like I’m your only option. I’ll tell you everything. But I still have one condition," Varant said after taking a deep breath. His voice sounded weak, and his face remained pale.

"What condition?" Lucifer asked, frowning.

"You won’t tell this to the world," Varant said, sighing. "If they knew about it, the entire nation would be in chaos. Just keep this to yourself?"

For a brief moment, Lucifer didn’t say anything. He hadn’t accepted this request, but it wasn’t anything hard to do either.

"What will I even get by telling the world?" He asked, sighing. "I’m not looking for pity from anyone! All I want are my answers. So I can promise that much. I won’t tell anyone how you all betrayed my parents."

At this point, Ayn was sure that it was the truth. Varant had betrayed Zale! He’s the reason they lost someone so great! So Lucifer was right. She was always standing with the wrong side. She seemed taken aback at this revelation.

"Now tell me, why did you do it?" Lucifer asked.

After taking a deep breath, Varant reminisced about the past. "Because he wanted to find the Seven Crystals of the Great War again. He wanted to open the portal again. We couldn’t let it happen, but we couldn’t stop him either."

"He was the strongest at that time, after all. And he also had massive public support. We couldn’t do anything to him openly without becoming Villains. So this was the only option we had remaining," he further continued.

For a moment, Lucifer even forgot to breathe as he heard what actually happened. All because of that? For something so small, they killed his parents?

His heart was beating extremely slowly as he felt some indescribable emotion inside him.

"The only choice was to scheme against him to send him to his death. After that, we all continued the charade of investigating what happened in the Dungeon," Varant further said. "To fool the public."

"So you pulled the same trick that you did after killing me? Continued the search, so people don’t know you were involved in my disappearance," Lucifer chimed in.

"You don’t understand. We did what we had to do to keep the balance of this world!" Varant emphasized.

"Balance of this world? You killed my parents to keep the freaking balance of the world? That was all their life was worth?" Lucifer asked as he smacked his fist on the table. The metallic table broke because of the impact.

Varant fell to the ground.

"I know you can’t understand. But keeping the balance is important. That’s how society functions. We can’t let everything go into chaos!" Varant continued.

"You wanted to keep the balance of the world?" Lucifer asked as an evil smirk formed on his face as he sat closer to Varant.

"I’ll destroy everything you worked hard to defend. Not only will I destroy the balance, but I’ll also open that portal! I’ll see who and what can stop me! I won’t let their deaths be in vain!"

"Unfortunately, you won’t be here to see that day," he added.

"I know I won’t be here for that. I already accepted my death. But just know, you’ll never succeed. Evil never wins. You’ll be stopped! If it’s not me, then it’ll be someone else! The world is really big, after all!" Varant said firmly.

"Someone will stop me? Even if the gods come down to earth, I won’t be stopped. Even if I die a thousand times, I’ll keep coming back! This world will be mine! The world that took my parents from me, I’ll take it all for myself! And then I’ll see who dares to stop me!" Lucifer yelled.

" I hope that day never comes," Varant said, sighing.
