Inhuman Warlock-944 Chapter 944

"Oh, you've been there before?" The old man was slightly surprised to learn that Lucifer knew about that place. It was quite intriguing for him since they rarely had people knowing about the place which they had to destroy, let alone someone like Lucifer who was supposed to be from a world far away from their target.

"Then you should know quite a lot about that place. If your bias will come in the way of this mission, you should tell me right now. We can't have someone helping the ones we are supposed to destroy. I hope you understand."

The mission was to destroy the people of the world. Before deciding on this as the final challenge for the youngsters, the old man made sure that none of the finalists had any relationship with the world to make sure it was a neutral venue for everyone.

"There won't be any problem. I won't have a bias. I do want to go for this mission."

Instead of backing out, Lucifer accepted the mission. He didn't know what the world could've done to anger the Star Alliance to an extent where they were willing to destroy the world, but what he did know was that he needed to get to the World of Summons.

Even if he said no now, that wasn't going to save the world. The others were going to destroy the world anyway. His decision didn't matter at the moment. Ron and Raayi alone were enough to destroy everyone in the world. Even the Beasts of that world shouldn't be able to face them. If they could, the Star Alliance would never agree to give them this mission.

What mattered was the last stone Fragment that was in the world of Summons. He needed to retrieve that stone before the world was destroyed.

"I don't have any nice feelings related to that world. I was just trapped there once upon a time and had to find a way out myself. That's all there is to it," he further clarified.

"So while you were there, you didn't get any new friends?" The old man asked. The holograms stopped, leaving only the two people in the place.

"Friends...?" Lucifer asked, remembering that he did have someone he could call a friend. The heir of the Snow Wolf Clan.

There was also a little phoenix who he considered his friend until she rejected his offer...

"I had no friends."

"Fine. You can also join on the mission. Only the nine finalists will be sent to that world. You'll be tasked with killing people there."

"You will have three days there... Three days where the nine of you can do whatever you want. It doesn't matter how many people you kill, because after three days, we will destroy that world after you're all brought back. And the final ranking will be decided based on which one of you managed to kill the most there in the three days you were there."

"You understand?"

The other finalists were already explained the mission. The one person that was still left to learn about this was Lucifer, and even he was informed now.

The old man brought Lucifer to his room and left him there, telling him to rest since it was going to take some time.

The doors closed on their own after Lucifer entered the room.

Even though the ship looked somewhat different from Joana's ship, the rooms looked completely identical.

Lucifer picked up a wine bottle from the table before walking over to the bed, taking a big sip.

The Trial had taken a really strange direction, but for him, it was something that only saved his time. He needed to take back the stone. In any case, he had to go to that place sooner or later. That just fastened the process for him.

He sat on the bed, drinking straight from the wine bottle, lost in thoughts. Even though he told the old man that he had no friends there, that wasn't the truth. There was someone he didn't want to die.

On one side, he was upset that the world was going to be destroyed and the Snow Wolves were going to be killed as well. On the other hand, he was slightly excited that he was this close to the last stone Fragment. Now it wasn't going to be long before he had all his answers.

An hour later, Lucifer was lying on his bed. His eyes remained closed as he tried to sleep, but he didn't receive any sleep. For some reason, his mind was hyperactive.

Throughout the journey, he just remained on the bed, trying to get some sleep. Instead of sleep, all he received were memories of his past. His mood was quite down. He missed his home... He missed his family... He missed the earth.

He felt quite lonely here, even though there were some friendly people here as well.

After having enough of it, he sat up. He walked out of his room. Instead of opening the door, he just teleported into the hallway.

Since he had been on a similar ship before, he had a rough idea about the command center of the ship. He decided to take a stroll to the command center to keep himself busy, as being alone with his thoughts was quite uncomfortable.

"What are you doing here?"

Before he could even get to the Command center, someone appeared before him, blocking his path.

"Where do you think you're going?" A middle-aged man stood before Lucifer, being the same moderator that Lucifer had a conflict with in the air.

"I'm going to blow up this ship. Is that even a question?" Lucifer sarcastically answered. "I'm just taking a stroll since I couldn't sleep."

"This isn't your garden where you can take a stroll. No one is allowed to get out of their rooms."

Even though the middle-aged man didn't like Lucifer, he was already scolded last time for not behaving right with Lucifer. This time, he wasn't as heavy handed as before. He simply informed Lucifer that he wasn't allowed to be here.

"Let me take you back to your room. And next time, stay there. When we reach our destination, you'll be let out."

"Oh, Lucifer? What are you doing here?"

As the man was about to send Lucifer back, the old man arrived. Even though he was surprised to see Lucifer here, but he didn't send Lucifer back.

"Come with me."

Now that Lucifer was already here, he told Lucifer to follow him to the command center. The old man had started liking Lucifer to some extent as a student. He didn't even realize when, but he started having some bias for Lucifer since the boy had limitless future prospects.

Leaving the moderator behind, he brought Lucifer to the command center while talking with him. The old man treated Lucifer quite favorably.
