Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 786: Fool

"Hahahaha, even with ten minutes head start, you're concerned about me having an easier time finding you just because I could see where you turned? You truly are a coward, aren't you? Fine, I'll close my eyes and won't even look. Run! I won't see where you turned."

"Why should I trust you? Why should I believe that you won't see?"

"Because I'm not an a*shole like you and your partners. We in the Warlock Council are very upright people."

"Upright and you? Attacking us from the back, using the cloak of invisibility like cowards? That's upright?"

"That was war, but this is different. This time, I'm giving you my word. We might select some unique ways to fight, but we stick to our words and don't go back on it. Trust me and run! I will give you one minute to run! If you don't, I'll forget that I even gave you an opportunity, and I'll kill you right here!"

"Fine. Close your eyes," Arthur said, glaring at the man.

Zain closed his eyes as he folded his arms, starting a countdown from sixty.

Arthur observed the man for ten seconds, making sure he wasn't looking.

He floated in the air and took off his shoes without making much noise. "Don't look if you truly have some dignity!"

Zain smiled, "Don't worry. I don't need to cheat to get cowards like you."

"Forty seconds left!"

Arthur turned around, placing his shoes on the ground as he waved his fingers. His shoes started rising on the air and moving back as if they were running on their own.

The shoes landed with such impact that they sounded like they truly were on the foot of a human.

Zain heard the sound of footsteps going away from him.

"Truly a coward."

"Thirty."

"Twenty nine."

"Twenty eight."

The shoes kept running on their own while Arthur started floating towards the exit carefully. He surrounded his body with an air bubble to not create any disturbance in the atmosphere around him as he moved so Zain couldn't sense him.

Zain kept his eyes closed as he continued the countdown, not realizing that Arthur had reached right beside him.

Arthur flew past Zain while his shoes kept running away, keeping the illusion that it was him who was running away.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

Zain opened his eyes. "Here I come, little rat!"

He started running inside the building, following after the shoes.

As he reached the turn, he looked to his left. That's where he had heard the footsteps go.

As soon as he looked left, his eyes opened wide in surprise. He noticed a pair of shoes lying at the turn.

"His shoes? Why would he take off his shoes here? He didn't want me to hear his footsteps? But if he knew I was hearing his footsteps, why would he take shoes off here and not before turning?"

"Could it be a diversion to make me think he went left while he went right?"

Even after finding the shoes, Zain still didn't realize that Arthur had fooled him to that extent. He only thought that Arthur had gone a different way.

He turned and took the right turn, not realizing that Arthur was already out of the building. He tried to find a person who wasn't even inside the building.

Meanwhile, Arthur had already left the Warlock Council headquarters. He was able to teleport once again.

Feeling control over his surroundings, he finally sighed a breath of relief as he felt the warm sunlight fall on his body.

....

A few minutes ago~

Milena was floating in the sky before Jian, not realizing how strong Jian truly was. For her, he was still one of the Warlock Council leaders, not much different than many she had already killed.

She didn't feel intimidated by Arthur, but she was surprised to some extent by his calm. Even when he was surrounded, she could feel that he wasn't scared at all.

Moreover, she was already informed about what was done here and how these people killed her Nobles using an invisibility Shroud.

Initially, she had thought that this was the reason for their confidence, but she soon realized that it wasn't the case.

She had used Energy Negation to bring out the people who were in the hiding, but even after she used Energy Negation, no one came to light. It was evident that no one was hiding nearby, at least not while being invisible.

"Your friends aren't nearby either. It makes me really curious. What's giving you such confidence here?"

Boom~

Just as she finished speaking, she heard a loud explosion. Every time except Jian looked towards the Warlock Council headquarters. They saw a huge cloud of smoke surroundings the headquarters.

"So I was right. This guy is just a distraction. They want to take out the others while keeping us distracted," Kellian commented, noticing the explosion near the Warlock Council headquarters.

However, he didn't hurry to go back. As if predicting something like this, he had sent Arthur to the headquarters. Moreover, he had left everyone else in that place to take care of such a situation.

He had complete faith in the abilities of Arthur.

"Shall I go back?" Dallas asked Kellian, concerned about the base.

"No need. Arthur and the others are there to handle everything. At the moment, taking out Jian is more important. He is the brain of this operation, and taking him out is of essence. Now that we are here, we can't go back without taking him out," Kellian responded.

"What we can do is make sure we kill Jian fast and then go back to help others if needed."

"You won't even need to do anything. You can go back right now," Jiani chimed in, smiling brightly. "Her Majesty is already there. This guy holds no chance."

"Don't be too overconfident. I don't know what it is, but his calm is making me feel a little uneasy. There's something odd about him, and I don't know what. None of us will leave until he is dead."

"Then let me make it happen fast," Milena said, hearing the words of Kellian. "I don't want any annoyances to be here before Lucifer returns. He still needs to take off this Limiter after all."

Milena flew towards Jian as two dark wings appeared behind her back, made purely of dark energy. The wings not only made Milena stronger but also made her faster.

...

A new Lucifer was taken out of the sea and brought to a hospital, where he was kept a secret from the entire world.

The man kept lying on bed as if he was sleeping peacefully as his body went through multiple tests one after another.
