Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 445: Step Closer

"May I ask why?" Lucifer asked the two Nobles. "Is there a change in the tournament schedule?"

"You don't have a right to ask. Just come with us. And bring your friends too," the Nobles answered, stepping back.

Lucifer stepped out of the room, finding the maid standing behind the Nobles. He understood that she was the one who brought them to him. He simply closed the door before moving on to the following rooms to call out Salazar.

Since Salazar had slept late, he also didn't wake up instantly.

Lucifer glanced back at the maid. "Do you have an extra key?"

The maid nodded. "I have the Master Key."

"That's going to work. My friends wake up late. I'll have to go in," Lucifer told the maid, who seemingly understood.

She tossed the key towards Lucifer.

Catching the key, Lucifer inserted it in the lock, twisting it to the right.

Click!

With a click sound, the door unlocked.

He pushed the door open and stepped inside, finding Salazar sleeping on his stomach.

He stepped closer to him.

"Salazar, get up!" He said, moving the body of Salazar.

"Uhmm? Is it morning?" After some time, Salazar opened his eyes, looking at Lucifer.

"It is. Wake up and get ready. We need to leave," Lucifer informed him. "Milena called us to meet."

The Nobles frowned, hearing Lucifer call their queen by the first name, but they didn't say anything.

"Can I sleep five more minutes?" Salazar asked, not getting up.

"You can't. We don't have time. Get up fast."

"Sigh, fine!"

Salazar pushed his body up and rolled off the bed. He wore his shirt since he was sleeping bare-chested. On top, he wore his sleeveless cloak.

Within five minutes, he got ready. "I'm ready."

Following Lucifer, he left the room.

Lucifer went to Caen's room. He didn't knock this time and directly opened the door using the Master Key.

Pushing the door open, he stepped inside to find Caen staring at him.

Even though he also slept late, he was more alert. Hearing the sound of the door opening, he woke up from his sleep, getting alert.

"Get ready. We need to leave. Milena wants to meet us," Lucifer informed Caen.

Caen followed Lucifer outside.

"We're ready to go," Lucifer informed the two Nobles who stood with pride plastered on their faces.

"Isn't there another person who should be with you? I heard from Feronia that there were four of you?" One of the Nobles asked.

"The fourth is an ordinary pilot. He isn't a part of the team," Lucifer responded.

"We don't care. Bring him with you," the Noble insisted.

"Caen, wake Heath up," Lucifer lazily told Caen, not arguing.

Caen walked to the fourth room and woke up the pilot, bringing him out of the room.

Heath stepped out of the room, rubbing his eyes.

" Are we going out?" he asked, still a bit sleepy.

"We're going to meet Milena, and you're coming with us," Lucifer explained. "I'm sure you know how to behave, right?"

"M-meeting her? Why would I be needed?"

"She just wants to see our faces. Don't worry about it. It's nothing serious. There won't be any danger to you," Lucifer comforted Heath.

He turned back to the Nobles and asked, "Can we finally leave now? Are we going to have breakfast here too?'

"Hmph," the Noble rolled his eyes as he started leaving.

"Follow him," the Second Noble told Lucifer.

The group of four followed the first Noble while the second Noble walked in the back to keep an eye on the two of them.

At the entrance of the Palace, four golden carriages were standing, waiting for them.

"Get inside the middle one," the first Noble informed Lucifer, telling him to go in.

"Really? Feronia said only Nobles could travel in the Carriages. Are we finally allowed?" Lucifer asked, amused.

"Don't be smug about it! Your smugness won't last long. It's just that Her Majesty wants to meet you urgently. That's why she allowed you to sit in the Carriage!" The Noble informed Lucifer and his group.

Smirking, Lucifer stepped closer to the carriage. "Whatever suits you."

Pushing the door open, he stepped inside.

Caen, Salazar, and Heath also stepped inside.

The first and the Second Noble stepped inside the Carriage in the back, keeping an eye on the second carriage.

All three carriages started moving.

Within ten minutes, the Carriages stopped at the Royal Palace. Throughout the journey, Lucifer and the others didn't speak. They remained entirely silent.

Only after the Carriage stopped did they step out.

The two Nobles also stepped out. They escorted Lucifer and his team inside the Palace, stopping before the Royal Chamber.

The doors were opened, letting them enter.

As Lucifer entered the room, he found the place similar to how it was the last time he came here. Everyone was in the exact same place as last time.

The only difference was that two people were missing as two chairs were empty.

He also had a general idea as to who those two were. They were probably the two that were killed by him last night since there was no way that two Nobles would dare to be absent.

Lucifer also recognized some people now.

He was able to recognize Arthur, who was sitting on the first seat on the right. The white haired man stood behind Milena even now. Lucifer still didn't know his name though, but he knew that he needed to keep an eye on this guy the most.

"We were told that you called for us? May I ask why it was?" Lucifer asked Milena before she could even speak.

"Don't worry; we'll get there. There's no hurry. First, why don't you tell us how your night was?" Milena asked Lucifer, smiling.

"It was good. The room was clean, and the beds were nice. I had a really nice sleep. How about you? Your beds must be better. Did you have a good sleep last night in your room?" Lucifer asked in return.

His question brought a smile to Milena's face.

"I can't say I did. Apparently, some pests entered my Palace last night. Don't worry though; they'll be killed soon enough," Milena replied calmly.

She shifted her attention to Heath. "That man looks new. I didn't see him last time you came here. Who is he?"

"He is our pilot, Heath," Lucifer answered.

"Heath, huh," Milena muttered.

"Heath, why don't you step closer. I want to see you from close," she told Heath.

Heath looked towards Lucifer, hesitant. He was wondering if he should go or not since he cared for his life.
