Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 570 - 570: It Helps Me

The poison which had spread all around Lucifer's body started retreating after his healing started overwhelming it.

Even though more poison entered his body with each passing second, it was healed even faster.

Even his neck had turned green, but it returned to normal, just like his chest and legs. Only his hands remained green.

Lucifer kept his eyes closed, feeling all the change in his body, especially the pain of the poison, imagining him with his family when they were suffering.

However, he was healed unwillingly. Only his hands had the poison after some time. He slowly opened his eyes, coming out of his dream world.

He looked down at his hand, which was resting on the soft back of Amelia.

Most of his arm was free of poison, leaving only his fingers.

He breathed out a mouthful of breath, seeing it was over. His healing had already understood the poison and how to perfectly counter it. The poison couldn't overwhelm him again.

He prepared to free Amelia; however, it was only then that he realized Amelia was also hugging him. Her arms were wrapped around him just like his arms were wrapped around hers.

"Amelia?" he asked, but Amelia didn't reply.

He moved his head back, observing her face.

Amelia was so comfortable in his embrace that she didn't even realize when she had fallen asleep. It was the first time she fell asleep without having to force herself.

"Are you sleeping?" Lucifer asked softly.

Amelia didn't reply. Her calm breathing and peaceful face already answered Lucifer though.

"Sleeping so peacefully..." Lucifer muttered. "You haven't slept peacefully in a long time, have you?"

He looked up, seeing it was still day. He still had plenty of time before he had to go back.

"Fine. Since you served my mother, let me help you this time. Sleep... No one will disturb you..." He rested his chin on her shoulder again before closing his eyes.

Just as Amelia had felt his calm breathing, he could also feel hers.

The two remained in each other's embrace for hours as Lucifer waited for Amelia to wake up on her own.

Similarly, he kept refining her poison which was only making him and his healing stronger. It was two birds with one stone. He could help Amelia, and he could help himself just by staying close to her.

That wasn't the only reason though. The main reason he remained in her embrace was because he wanted to. Just like Amelia felt comfortable in his embrace, he also felt comfort in her embrace, something he hadn't felt before.

He had never been this close to a person, especially never being in someone's embrace since his childhood with his family.

After three hours, Amelia finally came out of her slumber. "Umm."

She raised her head. "Did I fall asleep?"

As she woke up, she realized that she was still naked and in a man's embrace. Her face again turned red, but she didn't push Lucifer.

"Are you alright now?" She asked Lucifer. Before she fell asleep, she found him slightly disturbed. She wondered if he was fine so she could free him.

"Looks like you're up." Lucifer looked at Amelia's face.

Their faces were only inches apart. Amelia had a clear view of Lucifer's eyes. She hadn't focused on them before, but as she looked deep into his colorful eyes, she grew slightly dazed.

"Your eyes... They are beautiful..." She complimented without thinking about this.

"Beautiful?" Lucifer asked, bursting into a smile. "That's the first time someone called these eyes beautiful. Most people who used to see my eyes in the past classified me as a devil because of them."

"You're certainly an amusing person," he added, shaking his head. "Anyway, are you feeling fine? Can I free you?"

"Me feeling fine? Shouldn't I be asking you that question? You were the one feeling down..."

"Not that. I meant your pain. Your body isn't releasing as much pain as before. Are you feeling fine now?" Lucifer asked.

The poison was only Limited to the tip of his fingers now.

"Poison...? Ah, that's right." She looked at the sky. "What happened? How are you still perfectly fine?"

"Is the poison really useless against you?" Amelia asked, forgetting that she was still tightly embracing Lucifer.

"I told you at the start. This poison doesn't affect me. Instead, it helps me. So, are you fine now?" Lucifer asked.

"I-it looks like I am for the moment. The poison which had filled my entire body and started looking for a way out has decreased a lot. My body doesn't hurt as much. It's even better than the first time I took a bath in this pond. You... Thank you."

"Don't worry about it. I should thank you for letting me do as I wished. You allowed me to live the last moment of my parents. Thank you." Lucifer replied. "By the way, your eyes are pretty good themselves."

He didn't forget to return the compliment that he had received before he took his hands off Amelia's back.

Amelia still kept holding onto him, looking at him in surprise after the compliment.

Since he didn't want to ask her directly, he asked in a different manner for her to free him. "Shall we get out of the water now?"

Amelia nodded her head, still not freeing him. In fact, she didn't even remember that she was still holding onto him.

Lucifer scratched the back of his head as he smiled wryly. "Well, why don't you go out first? I'll follow you back?"

Amelia nodded again as she tried moving back, only just realizing that she was holding onto him.

"I-i apologize. I forgot I was holding you." She hastily took her hand off before she started swimming to the shore.

She stepped out of the pond, revealing her beautiful body, which was hidden by the water previously. She quickly brought forth a towel and wrapped it around her so she could dry her body first.

Lucifer also flew out of the pond, landing on the ground in the distance.

Unlike Amelia, he couldn't change clothes with magic. His clothes were wet, and they were going to dry on their own.

Amelia donned her red gown before looking back at Lucifer, finding him looking in a different direction.

'He didn't even look at me getting dressed. A decent guy...' Amelia thought, seeing the considerate behavior of Lucifer.

She didn't realize that he had already seen all he had to.

She walked closer to Lucifer, tapping on his shoulder. "Your clothes are wet."

"Really? I didn't know.." Lucifer smiled, amused at the lady who was pointing out the obvious.
