Inhuman Warlock

"I think that's enough." The man finally took a step ahead. He placed his hand on his wife's shoulder.

"What? You really believe them?" The woman asked, stunned.

"I don't believe them. I just believe my common sense. I don't think someone can look the same even after living for so long. It's probably a mistaken identity," the man said, shaking his head.

"But I really saw! He was the same person with the same eyes! How can another person have the same eyes?!"

"Hallucination maybe? You wanted to see the person so badly that you started hallucinating him?" Eve answered.

"You keep your mouth shut! You would understand what insult I went through if it happened to you?"

"I won't deny that. Maybe you went through something really bad. I mean, a person wouldn't start hallucinating for something small," Eve responded, flashing a cheeky smile.

She turned to Lucifer. "Hubby, shall we get going? We wasted enough time already."

She held Lucifer's hand and started walking away.

The woman tried to follow Lucifer, but she was stopped by her husband. "Let them leave. Don't make a spectacle of us. People are starting to gather here!"

Many people had stopped in the surrounding area as they recognized the man who wasn't an unknown entity. Even many cars stopped in the surrounding area as one of the great family heads was arguing with someone.

He held his wife's hand and walked back to the car.

"But...but..."

"No buts! I wasted my time as you said it was the same person, but the man was completely different than the one you described. His hair was dark; his eyes were different. And the one you hallucinated wasn't even here."

"Instead, a woman was here who looked nothing like him. I don't blame you. I agree the man was probably similar to the one you saw over thirty years ago."

" It's easy to get mistaken and think you saw something you didn't. It's perfectly alright. But what's not alright is not accepting when you're wrong and double down instead."

He opened the doors of his car and stepped inside. "We also need to maintain the reputation of the Raasin Family. We can't go around killing innocent people just because they look similar to someone who insulted you and your father over thirty years ago!"

"Now, it would've been a different matter if you were at least right, and he looked like that man, but he didn't look even that."

The woman kept glaring at Lucifer, who stepped in a cab with Eve. The cab started going away.

She couldn't help but clench her fist as she watched that. She couldn't believe she finally saw that person again and let him leave, especially now that she had a powerful husband.

In fact, the only reason she married such a strong Variant was for her revenge. Previously she only agreed to marry a Variant to make her father happy.

However, after getting insulted last time at the hands of Lucifer, she decided that she needed strength to protect her dignity! Instead of looking for any random Variant to marry, she went after the strongest Variant she had heard about.

After struggling, she even managed to win the heart of Jake Raasin, the young heir of the Raasin Family, which was a wealthy family that had just shot to fame when Jake awakened his abilities.

She couldn't help but shake her head, wondering if she had hallucinated. However, just as she was about to sit inside the car, she noticed the camera on the other end of the street, which had a clear view of the spot where Lucifer was standing.

"Wait! I can prove it! I can prove what I saw!" She exclaimed.

"How?" Jake inquired, frowning.

"Look there. That camera! It will prove what I saw! Just you watch, it'll show exactly what I'm saying!"

"Fine. Let's do that as well if it makes you happy," Jake replied, rolling his eyes. He closed the door once again and went to the shop with his wife, slightly frustrated.

As he entered the shop, he and his wife were welcomed like they were kings. They just had to issue a command, and the shop owner started showing them what the front camera saw.

The footage started from ten minutes before Jake, and his wife left the airport and continued. However, a few minutes after that, it turned black for some reason.

"Hmm? What happened?" The shop owner exclaimed. After a few minutes, the footage returned to normal to show an empty spot. Eve and Lucifer had left.

"I think there might have been some technical error. I didn't record the footage of a few minutes in between," the shop owner explained. "It doesn't happen often. I'll have a technician check it."

"I don't think it'll have any effect. Those people weren't recorded at all. Now you believe me? I was telling the truth?" The woman told her husband.

"How does that prove anything?" Jake asked.

"Don't tell me you find this normal. They weren't recorded! They probably pulled some trick to stop the recording so the two of them wouldn't be recorded. Why would they try to hide themselves if they did nothing wrong? Because it could prove that they lied to us!"

Jake scratched the back of his head, frowning. "I agree, it's odd. They were certainly trying to hide something, but I don't think it's what you think it is. That leaves one question if it's actually true. Why were they trying to hide themselves?"

"We would've known if you had listened to me and hadn't let them go. But you let them go," the woman rolled her eyes. "Now find them."

"No need. I remember the number of the cab they took. It should be enough to find where it is."

The man left the shop and dialed a number. "Jake? I want you to find the whereabouts of a taxi. It's carrying two people, one guy, and one girl. Its number is PSK23483Z."

"The passengers are the ones I want captured. After finding the cab, surround it and wait for me to get there. Under no condition should they be allowed to leave."

"Got it."

...

Unaware that their cab was on the radar of the great Raasin family, Lucifer and Eve were sitting in the car, which was traveling to a hotel that was selected by Eve for tactical reasons.

"You did good by not losing your temper," Eve explained.

"Why would I lose my temper? It was fun to see two ladies fight. I was expecting more though," Lucifer responded, smiling.

"What would you have done if I was hit by her?"
