Chapter 617 - 617: Meeting
As he had selected three Warlocks like Milena, Kellian, and Arthur, he didn't need to use his winds to make them fly.
Milena and Arthur could fly on their own. Meanwhile, Kellian had turned into a shadow Eagle and flew behind Lucifer.
The group of four entered the city without any obstruction. It was only when they reached near the Warlock Council that they attracted some attention.
They weren't subtle at all on their way inside the city. The Warlock Council members intercepted them in the middle.
Four Warlock Council members surrounded the group. More remained on the ground, keeping an eye on the interaction in the sky.
Within seconds, there were hundreds of Warlock Councils there.
Apparently, no one was allowed to fly in the sky except for the Warlock Council members that were on security duty, and even they could only fly after wearing a special uniform.
It was why Lucifer and his team stood out like a sore thumb.
"I'm invited by your leaders to meet them. You can ask them." Lucifer didn't force his way through the security since it wasn't the end goal.
"May we know your name?" The Warlock Council Guards asked, observing Lucifer.
Milena and Arthur also stood behind Lucifer, but their faces were covered in masks.
"Lucifer Azarel," Lucifer answered.
One of the Warlock Council members flew back and contacted the higher-ups to ask about it.
The man soon flew back. "I talked to them. It's true that you were invited, but you alone were invited. Why are there two more people with you?"
"They're my subordinates. Don't tell me your bosses expected me to come alone without anyone accompanying me," Lucifer lazily replied. "You can talk to them. If they allow my subordinates to come, I'll come as well. If not, we'll all go back."
"Wait a minute."
The man flew back again and conveyed Lucifer's words.
It was only after ten minutes that he came back. "Alright. You can follow me."
He also commanded the other Warlock Council members on the ground to disperse.
He took Lucifer and the others to a place that looked no less than an office tower.
It was a tall building with glass windows. But even the glass windows were covered in formation circles.
Lucifer remembered seeing these circles before. They were the same as the fighter planes—the formation circles which fired back any attack with the same force.
"Are any of you carrying any weapons?" The Guard asked.
"We Warlocks don't need weapons," Lucifer replied, smiling.
"Good. Then you won't mind going through that detector."
Lucifer passed through the detector without a single care in the world. He was certainly carrying a gun that was given to him by Kane, but he knew his cloak could keep the gun hidden. Moreover, there were more things in the pocket of his cloak than just a gun.
Kellian had remained hidden in the shadows throughout the way, and he went inside with Lucifer. No one noticed him.
In the back, Arthur and Milena also stepped inside.
"Are all the Warlock Council leaders in this building?" Lucifer asked the guard who was escorting them to the lift.
"I don't know," the guard replied. He didn't want to answer such internal questions to strangers, so he simply said he didn't know.
Lucifer also didn't ask again. Everyone entered the lift, which took them to the higher floors.
Almost everywhere inside the building, Lucifer saw the formation circles. There were circles of different types, but there were a lot. The building was probably a fortress.
The guard took the four of them to a seventh floor room. "Please wait inside."
Lucifer, Milena, and Arthur stepped inside the meeting room. There were quite a lot of chairs in the room. There were around twenty chairs.
Lucifer observed the room. He couldn't find any cameras, but he was sure there were some. He didn't sit on the chair, which could give him a clear view of the Warlock Council members in the meeting. Milena sat on his left, and Arthur sat on his right.
Both of them were wearing contact lenses to keep their eye color hidden. Their eyes looked a beautiful shade of blue at the moment.

Suddenly, a clicking sound echoed in the room. Arthur stood up and walked to the door to check it.
"It's locked," he said, frowning. "You think this might be a trap for us?"
Lucifer didn't believe it was a trap. If he believed Eve, then it wasn't a trap. The Warlock Council definitely needed her. But that was also a problem. What if she had lied to him about their real goals behind this invitation?
"Don't worry, young man. This isn't a trap. Please sit." An old-sounding voice came abruptly.
At the same time, a man's hologram appeared in the main chair.
"I am Andrim. I am in charge of decisions in the Warlock Council. You can also call me the spokesperson of the Warlock Council. I was the one who called you for a meeting," the old man said.
"I didn't come to meet a hologram. If that's what it's going to be, then I'll take my leave." Lucifer stood up.
"Don't be so hasty. Actually, I didn't know you were going to be here so fast. I am in a different city at the moment. If you had informed us before coming, I might have been there to welcome you and meet you personally. Albeit, the situation doesn't allow it."
"What about your other Warlock Leaders? There should be quite a lot of them. Don't tell me none of them are here. If that's the case, it's just a waste of my time." Lucifer frowned.
The only reason he came here was because he thought he could get them all in one place. But if he couldn't, it was useless. He might as well just destroy everything here and get enough lives to upgrade his ability. There was no one to stop him anyway.
"There are some Head Council Members there. But they don't have the deciding authority. Since I invited you, It's only fair that I meet you."
"Nope. What's fair is that I leave and next time, you come to Elisium to meet me. Because all I can see is contempt for me here. None of your leaders are here for this meeting, including you. Goodbye."
Lucifer started leaving the room.
"Wait! Don't go! I'll send all the members who are in the office for this meeting. They'll be there, and I'll be in my holographic form. Would that work?" The old man asked, keeping his calm.
"That should work. Show me your sincerity. I didn't come here to be insulted.." Lucifer lazily walked back to his seat.
