Inhuman Warlock

Fortunately, he didn't seem heartbroken. It was something he had prepared himself for. He didn't keep high expectations

He used his decay on all the bodies before he stood up again as if nothing significant had happened. He left the lift and walked back to the office.

Sitting in the office, he again called Vega.

"He was a fake," Lucifer told Vega.

"I should've expected that. Zale would never look to run away like that guy was doing. I apologize," Vega let out apologetically.

"It's fine. What's the second strange thing you noticed?" Lucifer asked.

"There's another cell—a special section in the APF which is used to keep prisoners. But there are no cameras there, and only Varant and a few other high-ranking members were allowed to go there. At least according to what I found," Vega replied.

"Can you find who is kept there?" Lucifer inquired, seemingly curious. It seemed like only powerful Variants must be kept there.

"There's no record here as to who is kept there. So I can't say. You'll need to check yourself. I'll send you the location of that place," Vega responded.

...

Lucifer sat in the office, going through the details of the prisoners that were given to him by Vega.

"Honestly, a lot of them shouldn't even be here. Look at this guy. All he did was hack some system. Because of the risk of him doing it again, he was forever imprisoned."

"And this guy, he only killed a human that was assaulting someone. And they landed him here. Then there's this guy, responsible for killing a businessman that screwed his small company."

"Some of these people are really useful. As for the others, they are slightly risky, but I think we can control them if we free them all. It's a good way to increase our force. What do you think?"

As Lucifer finished going through the list, he asked Cassius and Alicia.

"I think this will be good," Alicia agreed.

"We can certainly take help. We are going to need as much as we can get," Cassius also agreed.

Since they all supported his decision, it was decided.

He stood up and went to the cells. One after another, he kept going to the cells and freeing the prisoners.

At the same time, he didn't forget to show his dominance to show them that he was the leader.

He wanted to have them fear and respect him at the same time, and he was easily succeeding.

He soon freed all the prisoners from the cell. The strong and the weak, they were all freed from the prisons, including the hacker.

It was decided that the hacker was going to work with Vega since they both shared the expertise. The two were going to form the intelligence department of Variant Uprising.

...

"This is the special cell department. I wonder what kind of prisoners will be here," Standing before a metallic gate, Lucifer asked himself.

He looked towards the camera on top, signing something.

With a beeping sound, the gates were open now. Vega had opened the gates. This was what he could control. From here on, everything was on Lucifer.

He was also walking with Alicia and Cassius.

There seemed to be five cells here. And each of these cells had a lock that opened with a passcode.

Unfortunately, only Varant knew the passcode. Lucifer had no idea what the code was. It wasn't stored in the system either. So Vega couldn't find it.

'If I knew about this, I would have asked him for the codes,' he thought as he stopped before the first gate.

He stretched his arms as he decided on what to do.

Raising his right leg, he kicked the door. He could have used his decay as well, but he didn't wish to waste so much time since he had super strength.

A single lock from him was enough as the door broke. The metallic door flew behind, crashing on the opposite wall inside the cell.

Lucifer stepped inside the cell to see who it was that was inside this cell.

"It's empty?" He exclaimed, surprised. There was no one here.

"Let's check the other ones," Cassius suggested as he walked over to the second room.

This time, he took the lead as he brought his sword.

The sword started shining with Divine Sword Energy. He used the sword to cut through the door as if it was butter, creating an opening.

The group of three entered inside the second cell as well. It was also a failure as they couldn't find anyone inside.

"Are they all empty?" Alicia asked, wondering if the other three were the same. "If so, we're wasting our time."

"Maybe. I am not sure of it. It's quite possible that this place was made for special prisoners, but there was never a need to use it," Cassius suggested as he stepped out of the second cell.

The third cell was once again opened by Lucifer. He kicked the door open and entered inside.

At the same time, Cassius moved over to the fourth door to save time.

"It's empty as well," Lucifer said, disappointed. The third room was empty as well.

"Lucifer! Come here fast; I found someone!"

Lucifer was just about to leave the third room when he heard the call of Cassius. He ran to the fourth gate, wondering who was there.

Through the sword-made opening in the gate, he stepped inside the fourth cell to find a person inside. As for the person, he seemed to be a middle-aged man.

The man had dirty hair as if he hadn't taken a shower in over a month. The man looked like he was in his mid-forties.

The middle-aged man was sitting in his dark cell when lights suddenly filled the room. A young man stepped inside the cell. Before he could even ask anything, the man screamed and called for someone named Lucifer

The middle-aged man looked at Lucifer, slightly surprised. The silver hair and blue eyes reminded him of someone. And this name...

"Are you Lucifer Azarel?" The middle-aged man asked, frowning.

"Yeah. How do you know me?" Lucifer asked, stunned. Why did a prisoner recognize him?

Within minutes of Lucifer asking his question, he got his answer. The man didn't speak to answer him. Instead, he used something else.

His face slowly started changing, and started becoming slender and seemingly younger. His hair also changed color and became cleaner. His body size also became smaller.

Within minutes, the middle-aged man looked like a completely different person. He seemed like a woman now. But it was a woman that Lucifer recognized.

"Caen?" he asked, stunned.
