Inhuman Warlock-Novel

Chapter 404 - 404: Sheer Power

"Fine. I’ll do it. But I doubt it’ll be as easy as you’re expecting it to be. That place is no less than a fortress. Then when the Academy is closed, it’ll be hard to get to it," Cassius pointed out.

"I’m sure you can do it. Before infiltrating, make sure that no teachers are there. After that point, it should be easy. If any teachers are there, drop the plan and come back. Take risks but take a calculated risk. No need for jumping in a trap," Lucifer warned Cassius, who nodded.

"Good. Talk to Kellian and get him to arrange a flight for you. I’ll tell Alicia about it as well," he added before he left the place. Lucifer left the room, leaving Cassius behind.

As soon as Lucifer stepped out of the room, he collided with Alicia, who was coming to meet him as well. Fortunately, no one got injured in the collision.

"Ah, you’re here. I was just coming to talk to you. I’m coming with you to the Divine Empire. There’s no way I’ll be staying behind!" Alicia declared, making Lucifer smile wryly.

"I just had the same conversation with Cassius, and the answer is no. You’re not coming with me," Lucifer replied. "Instead, you’ll be going on a special mission with Cassius, which is really important to me."

"That’s why I am not bringing you with me. Because I need you on that mission which only you can do," he further said, giving excuses.

He explained the entire missing to Alicia, ultimately convincing her.

He talked about this mission as if it was even more important than his own mission. Alicia simply couldn’t say no.

As Alicia and Cassius were taken care of, Lucifer could finally relax. Everything was finished. All that was left now was leaving.

...

Lucifer’s last night in Elisium passed peacefully. He slept like a baby, waking up in the morning by a knock on the door.

Slowly opening his eyes, he looked at the clock, noticing that he was late.

It was already twelve in the afternoon.

He got off the bed and opened the door, finding Kellian there. "The flight is waiting for you. Everyone else is also prepared."

"Just give me five minutes. I’ll be right outside," Lucifer replied, closing the door again. He went back in and took a quick shower before getting dressed.

He took all the things he needed. Most of those things were in the inner pockets of his robe, which was now yellow in color.

He left the room and met with Kellian, who walked with him to the roof where a helicopter was waiting for them. Caen and Salazar were already present there, along with other Warlocks from Uprising.

Alicia and Cassius were also there, wishing him luck on his journey.

"There are three bags in the helicopter with clothes and other items just for show. Since you’re going there with the excuse of sightseeing, you’ll need that bag to not raise suspicions at the airport there. Don’t forget to take it with you," Kellian reminded Lucifer and the others that were going with him.

The three entered the helicopters, which soon started flying.

...

A black helicopter landed inside the airport. Three men stepped out of the airport. The airport security escorted them to the commercial flight without any checking.

They entered the plane, which soon started flying to the Nation of Uheim.

...

The commercial plane was mostly filled with Ordinary Civilians, mostly the ones that were sent in a hurry with the similar excuse of a lottery.

The families were told that they were selected for foreign vacation but only if they left in one day. Most of the families that were approached for this agreed to leave, unaware that they were being used in a way.

While most of the ordinary citizens sat in the economy class seats, Lucifer, Caen, and Salazar were sitting in the business class, away from others.

So far, no one knew that Lucifer and other high-profile people were on the plane, except for the people that escorted them and the plane staff. L

"Shall I bring something for you, Sir?"

Three special air hostesses were assigned to the business class to take care of these three people.

"Nothing. You can leave. We want complete privacy here," Lucifer told the air hostesses. "Just bring something to eat after a few hours."

"Yes, Sir." The air hostesses turned to leave.

In the entire business class, only three people remained, sitting in silence.

All the planning was already completed, and there was nothing to talk about anymore, so no one spoke anything for quite some time.

Salazar closed his eyes and went to sleep since it was a long journey. This single flight was going to take two days to get to the continent of Darkness and that too, after stopping in other countries for refueling.

Caen, on the other hand, was looking at the videos of a winged man, trying to understand him better since he needed to impersonate this man.

He had already tried once before since he didn’t know if he could form wings too, but he had succeeded when he tried. Now he only needed to fine-tune a little more.

Lucifer had already taken a long nap, so he wasn’t sleepy. Instead, he looked out of the plane, watching the clouds as far as his eyes could see.

It was his first time on a flight that was going to fly for so long.

After two more hours, the air hostesses return, breaking the pin-drop silence which existed for a long time.

The sound of their footsteps brought Lucifer out of his daze, making him glance at the ladies.

...

Twenty hours passed, and the plane had already covered almost half the distance. It had just landed for refueling for a short time before taking off again.

Caen had fallen asleep by now, but Salazar was up, finishing his nap.

"The journey is so long. I’m getting tired of sitting. Why did this place have to be so far away?" Salazar complained, sighing. He got off the chair and started walking back and forth.

Lucifer was still up, but he didn’t react. He kept looking out the window, staring at the moon that seemed even closer now.

Even he was amazed by the distance though. His father had thrown those stones. Just how powerful was that throw that one stone ended up in the Divine Empire while the other ended up in Warlock Council.

Both of these places were on different continents.. Just the sheer power of that throw was fascinating.
