Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 913: The Stranger

The strange noise coming from the surroundings that were supposed to be completely empty stunned Lucifer. He hastily turned around.

As soon as he turned, a figure appeared before him. A fist landed on his face sending him flying to the distant wall.

At the same time, the future ran toward the exit. Opening the unsealed floor, the figure disappeared into the outside world.

For some reason, as the future moved past the shadows of Lucifer, the shadows were destroyed on their own to make it impossible to chase the figure.

Lucifer rubbed his cheeks where the first had landed. The punch was so powerful that it had managed to dislocate his jaws momentarily.

Lucifer stood up after his healing took place, gazing at the door on the other end of the temple.

"So this was the prison. But where was he hiding in that case? I checked everywhere before, and I couldn't find him anywhere. It was like he could... Disappear?"

"If that was actually the case, then even I can't locate him in the outside world. However, it's not as if he can leave this place either. The world is sealed. This can be really troublesome. Should I tell the instructors?"

Even though Lucifer had just been hit, he was more concerned about the person that hit him. There was one thing which he was sure of. Whoever that person was, he was trapped for centuries because he lost a war. That was all.

Centuries of isolation could make anyone go crazy, yet that person only attacked him but didn't kill. He just left. That made Lucifer feel like there was more to that person. He was certainly a threat, but he wasn't a crazy killer.

"No, I can't tell the Star Alliance. I will be expelled from the trials for entering without informing them. It'll be my loss. They don't know the story of this temple or that it was a prison. They will never know that man appeared here because of me."

Lucifer left the temple and made sure to close the door. He placed the lock on the door once again.

Now that he had managed to cover his trail, the only thing that was left for him was to find the person who had attacked him. That person doesn't belong in this timeline, but one thing was certain. For him to live so long without dying, there was just something similar between him and Lucifer.

Unfortunately, that similarity didn't appear to be bloodline since Lucifer believed he was more similar to the person he was collecting the seven stones for. The man who was imprisoned here just had immortality which was somewhat similar to him.

He believed that it could also be because a part of his bloodline matched this person's species as well, so he was able to draw the strength?

A fraction of his Bloodline matched the Baltics. And it's the effect of the arrival of the Baltics which made humans awaken their abilities that should've stayed with the Baltics.

However, he himself wasn't a Variant or a human. So he couldn't have received the abilities from the Baltics. Yet he had similar abilities to the Variants. He had started considering the possibility that it was because of his Bloodline which made him capable of awakening the abilities of other Bloodlines.

He had somewhat managed to find the origin of his abilities and his similarities to the person.

In one way or another, this person was also similar to him, unable to die. Moreover, Lucifer also had an ulterior notice in not attacking the person.

Whoever that person was, he was really strong and could be a great ally. Lucifer had seen a future where he was to go against the Star Alliance. The Star Alliance, which was trying to be his friend now, was going to be the one that tried to kill him. And they also had strength as well.

Even if they couldn't kill him, they could imprison him and let him run out of his energy. He didn't want to let the future become a reality, and for that, he needed allies! The Allies who weren't weak in the grand scheme of things! The Allies like the person who just swung at him.

He didn't want to be loyal to the Star Alliance. If he told them about this person, not only was he going to be Punished for ignoring the command, but he was also going to lose the opportunity of making a great ally in the process.

Moreover, if he managed to become a Captain after this Trial, he was also going to be able to hide that man on the ship.

There were just too many advantages of not giving up on that person. But first, he needed to find that person.

Lucifer spread his arms. One after another, shadows kept coming out of him, each taking a different direction for search.

Instead of searching alone, he placed thousands of his shadows on the task. Even though thousands of shadows were like thousands of people searching for that person, it was still not easy.

It was like thousands of people who needed to search for a person in the huge world who could be anywhere.

Unfortunately, this was also the best he could do. Even he couldn't form an infinite number of shadows in the process. Even his own strength was limited.

After sending his shadows for the search, he also left the crime scene and went back to the cliff to face some peace of mind to think.

In a different part of the world, a tall figure was running without stopping. The person ran through the freezing mountains and blazing desert before he ultimately stopped in front of a pond.

For some reason, the person appeared to be really confused, as if he didn't recognize a single thing. The surroundings were different, the fields were different, and nature was different.

It was as if he was in a different world altogether, one which wasn't even slightly similar to the world he used to know.

The man who appeared to be only in his early twenties felt as if the entire world was spinning around him. He had managed to get out after centuries of imprisonment, and the place he came to, it wasn't even his home.

The dark-skinned man sat before the pound, gazing at his slender face, which was covered in sweat. His beautiful crimson eyes were filled with confusion.

He drank some water from the pond before washing his face. He finally spoke a few words. "Just what have they done to my home?"
