Inhuman Warlock

"Your Majesty!" The Second Envoy approached the King of Aquarians who was still escorting the Draconians to the Main Hall.

The King frowned at the disturbance when he was with such special guests. However, he controlled his anger and asked, "What happened?"

"Another Unique Guest has arrived." The Envoy exclaimed.

Hearing the Envoy, the King was slightly surprised. Why were there so many high ranking people coming at this time? He wanted to go out and welcome the other guest, but he couldn't leave the Draconians.

Even amongst the hidden clans, the Draconians held a lot more importance. Even if it was another hidden clan, it was unlikely for them to be higher than the Draconians.

In the end, his choice was between the Draconians and the new guest. He made his choice and selected to stay with the Draconians.

"Escort the Guest to the banquet hall," he told his men, making it clear that he wasn't free to welcome the new guests.

With his permission, the Envoy swiftly left. They couldn't keep the new guest waiting.

The King continued escorting the Draconians toward the banquet hall.

The Second Envoy rushed towards the exit to tell the First Envoy that they could let the guest in, but to his surprise, he saw that Lucifer had already entered the Royal Palace by now.

He was being accompanied by the First Envoy who had a wry smile on his face as he saw the second Envoy, as if saying that he couldn't stop the guest from entering.

The Second Envoy nodded and conveyed the message of the King secretly. From this point on, the Second Envoy returned to the main entrance to keep an eye on the guests to see if another Unique guest was to arrive.

The First Envoy accompanied Lucifer, explaining about various places in the Royal Palace. He wasn't even sure if Lucifer was listening to him in the first place or not, but he still performed his duty.

"My Lord, may I ask your name or how I may address you?" So far, he still didn't know Lucifer's clan or even his name. He still had the assumption that Lucifer was some Elder of a Hidden Clan who looked much younger than his real age.

Unfortunately for him, Lucifer still didn't reply which made him wonder if Lucifer was actually deaf. He could only take the lead and gesture to make Lucifer follow him towards the Main Banquet hall.

Before long, they reached the main banquet hall.

The Banquet Hall of the Aquarian Palace was huge, but the number of guests wasn't small either. n-).()-.---/-1--n

Many guests from nearby worlds were here to greet the King on his birthday or for various other reasons. However most of the people were still made up of the merchants or the influential people of the Aquarian kingdom.

In the distance, there was a platform that was higher than the rest. On the platform, there was a throne on which the King of Aquarians was to sit. However, other seats were being arranged next to the king's throne for some special guests that were to sit on the same level as him.

This new arrangement made many people in the hall curious. Who could sit equal to the King? Many of the guests were looking at the King whose back was facing them. Two more people stood next to the King, looking at the portrait hanging above the wall.

The King was proudly explaining about the portrait to the Draconians.

As Lucifer entered the main hall, a little attention was attracted to him as well since he was being escorted by the First Envoy who was the most trusted noble under the King.

Lucifer's attention was also caught by the portrait in the wall, especially since he was able to recognise it.

The portrait on the wall was big. It depicted a beautiful world that was surrounded by many forces from all sides. The portrait focused on the Aquarians amongst the vast forces that were surrounding the world.

Although there were some inaccuracies in the portrait, Lucifer was able to recognise it. He was there when it happened after all. He was just a kid when it happened but the scene from his future and past was still etched in his mind.

"Is the Lord interested in the portrait?" The first envoy asked, pleased that the lifeless man was finally showing an interest in something.

"Many people don't know the origin of the portrait, but it was painted by the King who led the Aquarians at the time of this incident. The world in the portrait is-"

"The Ancient World." Lucifer finished the man's sentence. He didn't need others to explain his home. He still remembered everything vividly, including every family that took part in the destruction of his home. And that included the Aquarians as well.

In this life, he had lost his home twice. The first time was when he lost the Ancient World and his real parents died to save him. And the second was his home on earth which he destroyed himself.

Lucifer approached the portrait. Half the forces shown in the portrait were already destroyed, along with their worlds. That left only the other half, most of which were the hidden clans.

Next to the King, Lucifer could also see the Draconians. Although the Draconians weren't depicted in the portrait, they were part of the main forces that had entered the Ancient World to slaughter people during their day of celebration.

As Lucifer saw them, the heart that had gone still finally showed some emotions. A slight trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes.

The Draconians were not only powerful but also very sensitive to the killing intent, especially when directed towards him.

The man next to the King of Aquarian frowned as he turned around to find the source of the killing intent. Soon, his eyes landed on Lucifer who stood out in the entire hall.

The woman next to the King also turned around, noticing Lucifer in the distance approaching them.
