Inhuman Warlock-Novel

Chapter 166 - 166: Hero Azarel

"Let’s teach him how to make his abilities stronger and how to utilize them better. I think his Wind Control needs help. That is the ability he has the worst control over from the things I saw. This should be our focus," Kellian told Yaliza, who nodded.

"True. When I trained him, I noticed it as well. He can’t fly high or low but only float around after reaching the level with the help of his jump. He’s not using his skill the way it’s supposed to be. His other abilities are in better control, though," Yaliza agreed.

And thus, the plan was decided. It was to help Lucifer control his winds so that he not only mastered flying but also using his wind in an offensive manner to win.

...

While Kellian and Yaliza came up with the training schedule for the future, Vega was sitting inside an ordinary house in a distant city.

It took him much longer than he had expected to get to this place. After he reached the city, which was mentioned in the database, he found out that Doctor Mira wasn’t here.

Instead, she had gone to a city that was on the other end of the country.

Frustrated, Vega once again changed destination and went to the second city, but as he reached here, he realized that his luck was once again bad.

The lady had left a few days ago to go back home.

For the third time, he went to the old city, extremely frustrated, but this time he luckily managed to find Doctor Mira in her house.

"So you said you were from the APF?" An old-looking lady asked Vega who was sitting before her.

"Yes, mam, this is my card," Vega replied as he showed a fake identity card.

"May I ask why you’re covering your face with a mask?" Doctor Mira asked, curious about why Vega was keeping his face hidden.

She didn’t know that it was because his face was known throughout, especially now that the APF was going hard to find Lucifer.

He had kept his face hidden since he didn’t want to cause a commotion. It wasn’t that he was scared but because he wanted to come and leave silently and not waste any time.

"So, what did you want to ask me?" Doctor Mira asked.

"Doctor Mira, we’re investigating the death of Zale Azarel. I’m sure you know him, right?" Vega inquired as he showed a picture of Zale.

"Warlock King Zale?" The lady asked, recognizing the man in the picture. "I recognize him. A really great man despite having so much power. He was so kind as well."

Vega nodded his head before he replied, "That’s right. We’re trying to find more about him. We heard that you were the Doctor that assisted Clarisse and Zale in the birth of their child, is that right?"

"That’s right. I was there. I still remember how tense he was. He kept asking me every few seconds how long it was going to take. It was sweet," the lady replied as if she was reminiscing about the past.

"Are you sure that you delivered Lucifer? And he came out of the tummy of Clarisse? Hundred percent sure? Lucifer was born in the hospital?" Vega asked even though these questions sounded stupid.

"Lucifer? Is that the name they decided for the kid? It’s not bad, but they could have chosen better. They were so confused about what to name their kid. I even suggested a name, but they said they’d think about it after going home. It looks like they rejected the name I suggested."

"But yeah, you’re right. Their kid was born in the hospital right before my eyes. I still remember the beautiful blue eyes of the kid and the glow on his face."

"When I saw him, I knew he was going to be someone great like his father. Anyway, how is Lucifer now? He must be a student, right? Who takes care of him after his parents’ death?"

As the woman went down the memory lane, she didn’t stop talking for even a second until she asked the question.

"We are taking care of him at the moment. Anyway, thanks for the confirmation. So he was actually born in the hospital, and he’s the son of those two," Vega summarized as he nodded his head.

"I had one more question. You helped Lucifer’s birth, but soon after that, you resigned and quit; what was the reason for that? If I may ask?" Vega inquired.

"That? I can’t tell you the reason since it’s personal," the lady replied as she shook her head. "But it has nothing to do with the hospital and anyone from that city."

"Understood. As long as it’s not related to them, it’s fine. By the way, the day Lucifer was born, did something strange happen? Anything you can remember? Extraordinary weather or something else that you found odd?" Vega asked.

"Yeah, I think there was something like that. But I guess it was more like a coincidence than anything else," the lady replied.

"What happened?"

"Actually as soon as Lucifer was born, he cried for the first time. And as soon as he cried, I heard a loud thundering in the sky. The strange part was that the sky was clear when I last checked, half an hour before that," Doctor Mira answered.

"There were clouds and rain? I didn’t find anything like that in any of the databases. Are you sure?" Vega asked suspiciously.

"I’m sure that’s what I heard. Moreover, you’re right. There was no rain that day. Only dark clouds in the sky had suddenly appeared. That happens, though. It’s not odd. Nature is mysterious sometimes. So it’s just a coincidence," Doctor Mira said, smiling.

"Coincidences happen, I guess you’re right," Vega muttered as he rubbed his chin. But there was a sharp glint in his eyes.

He didn’t believe it was a coincidence of a sudden weather change. For some reason, Lucifer seemed to have some relationship with the weather. It happened too many times for it to be a coincidence.

Last time, he saw himself how the clouds were covered in dark clouds because of Lucifer.

"Thank you for your time and for answering all my questions. I’ll take my leave now," Vega stood up as he bid his farewell before he started leaving.

"If you meet Lucifer, give him my good wishes. Poor kid lost his parents so soon. Keep him happy," Doctor Mira said to the leaving Vega.

Vega was about to leave, but he stopped just before the door as he turned back.

"I will tell him that. However, just out of curiosity, you said you suggested a name for him, which his parents refused? What was the name you suggested for Lucifer?" He asked.

"Oh, the name? Since his parents were the heroes of humanity, I suggested the name Hero for their son," Doctor Mira answered.

"Hero Azarel?" Vega muttered as he smiled wryly. He shook his head and left.

’I must say, Zale had a better naming sense than that lady,’ Vega thought as he stepped out of the house. ’ Hero Azarel sounds so bad, honestly. I’m glad Zale didn’t select it.’
