Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 910: The Temple

"How can you stay so calm despite being the weakest here?" the young lady asked, gazing at Lucifer in amusement. "Don't you realize that the weaker you are, the higher your chance of dying here?"

Lucifer smiled in response. "Would anyone come here if they were scared of death? Moreover, aren't you the second last? What applies to me applies to you as well, doesn't it?"

"Of course it does! Why else do you think I'll be so worried? This place isn't a playground for people like us!" The girl answered, sitting beside Lucifer.

"Then why did you even decide to come here? If you were so scared, you should've stayed back."

"Before coming here, we didn't know where we were going to be in our initial standing. I didn't expect everyone else to be stronger than me. Well, everyone else except you. Anyway, now that I'm here, I can't leave."

Lucifer let out a deep sigh. "What a waste of a spot. There are people like Maya who have been waiting for years for a spot in these trials, and here, we have you who got the spot but didn't have the courage."

"Young lady, death and life are something you should stop worrying about. Focus on what you want to achieve in this place and give it your all. Because from what I've been told, you are never going to get this opportunity again. And if you miss it, you might regret it."

For a moment, the girl was completely stunned, hearing the advice of Lucifer. She just stared blankly at him.

"Are you really not worried about the Trials ahead?" she asked after a long time.

"If I started getting worried about things, the trials would be last on that list," Lucifer responded. "I wasn't aiming to come here. I didn't want to be here either, but now that I'm here, I'm not going to waste this opportunity. If you're worried about your safety, you should stay out of my path as well."

"Anyway, It was nice seeing you. I will see you in the trials." Bidding his farewell, Lucifer jumped off the cliff.

"What?" The woman exclaimed in shock, watching Lucifer jump down. She couldn't help but wonder if that man was crazy! He told her not to kill herself, but he killed himself instead?

"That madman!" She shook her head in disappointment and prepared to disregard everything that Lucifer said.

Just as she was about to leave, she noticed a figure fly up and leave. Her jaws dropped, noticing it was none other than Lucifer. "H-he can fly too? Just who is he?"

Throughout the entire day, Lucifer flew from place to place, observing every significant place. He went to the lake, the freezing volcano. After roaming the entire world, the last place on his Target was a tall temple that was the tallest place in the entire world.

He circled around the temple, noticing that there was no other path to enter except the main door. As for the main door, it was sealed. He could break the seal and enter, but he didn't want to break the rules so soon.

Despite being curious about the temple, Lucifer departed just as swiftly as he came.

A few moments after Lucifer left, there came a thudding sound from inside the temple as if something had fallen.

Lucifer returned back to the base just as the sun had started setting. On the way back, he noticed even more participants. All those people gazed at Lucifer as well, especially at his initial rank.

Some of them scoffed while others laughed and made jokes about how Lucifer was literally the lowest-ranked participant in the entire history of Trial of Promotion. Before him, there was no one who ever received the 51st rank.

Lucifer ignored the taunting comments and went straight to his room; along the way noticing the lady he had seen on the cliff.

The Night passed away in complete silence. Lucifer went to sleep in his room after finishing dinner. As he slept, he wondered if he was going to have the same weird dream as before. Fortunately, that didn't happen. He didn't dream about talking to his consciousness. Instead, his current dream was even weirder.

In the dream, he was back in the past, where he hadn't lost his parents. In the dream, he didn't become what he was since he had loving parents. Instead, he went on to start his own business and lived the life of a commoner.

He grew up married according to the wishes of his parents. In the dream, he even had two cute kids. He was dreaming of a calm and peaceful life far away from all the chaos. The world that was never meant to be.

His dream broke suddenly as his kids were killed in the battle between two Variants when a stray attack landed on them.

Roaring, Lucifer woke up from his slumber, reaching out his hands toward nothingness. His face was covered in sweat, and his breathing fastened.

He soon realized that it was all just a dream. He was back in the room, all alone.

"Without strength, there is no safety in this world." He got off the bed and walked into the shower, not willing to think about his dream anymore.

After getting ready, he once again left the place; however, this time, as soon as he left his room, he was greeted by a middle-aged man.

The man wasn't the same he had seen last time. Instead, it was a different man.

"Please come with me," the man told Lucifer before he started leaving.

Lucifer followed the man, wondering where he was being taken. He was taken out of the building.

Lucifer's body started floating in the air on its own. This time, he wasn't the one doing it. It appeared to be the work of the man ahead.

"Don't worry. You won't be hurt. This is just so we could move faster," the man calmly stated as he started flying as well.

Lucifer and the man flew above the forest, going toward the east. As Lucifer had already seen everything yesterday, he understood where they were going. In the direction they had selected, there was only one place there.

Just as Lucifer had expected, the man landed before the strange place with him. The man who had greeted Lucifer when he first arrived here was also standing here.

Lucifer gazed at the sealed temple, wondering why they were brought here.

"Are the Trials starting sooner than planned!" he asked.

"There are no trials. We are here for something even more important," the man answered.
