Inhuman Warlock-Chapter 1060 1061: Criteria
Lucifer was hidden in the rubble, unable to see what was happening on the other side. However, he could hear everything clearly.
Hearing the words of those men, he felt his blood boil. He wasn't angry at the others, but he was angry at himself. Even after traveling through time, he wasn't able to change anything. He was still just weak, unable to save anyone.
With each passing second, he felt furious. This was possibly his last chance. He didn't know how much he was going to break mentally if he failed to save his family even now.
He was weak now. He was only a child, who couldn't even speak. However, he knew he had to do something. He couldn't let everything fall apart.
Throughout his anger, he kept trying to think of a way. And the only possibility he could see was the inheritance of his father. As a child, he didn't have much strength. He couldn't even awaken the abilities of his clan until he grew older. However, he was different.
He had the inheritance of the Clan, something that was only passed to the new Clan Leaders from the old. It was an inheritance that was the most precious thing in the clan, and the most miraculous.
Lucifer had already experienced using this inheritance once. He knew everything about it. Although he was still a child but he understood that this inheritance didn't depend on the age.
If age was a criteria, it wouldn't have awakened so late in the future for him. More than age, the awakening was related to the understanding of power and the heir being worthy.
He had to prove his worth to this inheritance that he was receiving for the first time after coming to the past. He had to prove that he was the true heir of the clan, who was one day going to become better than his father!
Unfortunately, time was of the essence. In his body, Lucifer tried to look for the inheritance, but just like in his past life, he couldn't find the slightest trace of the inheritance. Even in the last life, the inheritance only awakened when his life was in danger.
'Where are you?! I don't have time!' Lucifer roared in his mind, using everything he had. Unfortunately, the inheritance was hidden.
With his small hands, Lucifer picked up a sharp piece of stone next to him. He brought the sharp stone near his throat.
'If my life is what awakens you, then I'll force you out!"
As the stone pressed against his skin, penetrating his throat, a sudden surge of power swept through Lucifer's body.
The inheritance finally responded to his desperate plea for help, revealing a blinding light that enveloped him. At that moment, Lucifer's bleeding throat healed. At the same time, a small mysterious core appeared in his heart, brimming with unknown power.
Once Lucifer found the trace of the core, he knew that he had achieved half his goal. He had received half the awakening, but he also knew that this was a forced awakening like in the past. If he didn't control it, he could destroy everything except himself.
Fortunately, from his past life, he had gotten slight experience. He knew what he had to do now. He entered the same mentality that he was in when he had truly awakened this power. It was as if he was back in the moment where he was fighting in the bloody battlefield.
At that moment, he was like a wargod, caught in a child's body. As he tapped into the deep reservoir of his power, he felt an overwhelming surge of energy coursing through his veins.
Slowly, his eyes started turning into a brighter shade of violet as small aura horns started growing out of his forehead. The core in his heart started melting, merging with his blood and body, truly becoming one with him.
Although it was painful, Lucifer felt happy. He had done it! He had received the inheritance. He had received his old abilities, and more importantly, he regained his control over time, removing his biggest limitation.
Lucifer placed his hand on his chest, using his abilities on himself. His body started getting bigger as he aged at a rapid pace in the moment.
In a few seconds, he was ten years old. And a little more, he was back to his old age, looking like a man in his early twenties. However, all his clothes were torn during the growth.
As Lucifer came to his senses, he pushed the rubble aside, only to catch the sight of a man trying to kiss his maid.
He raised his right hand, completely stopping the time for that man. At the same time, a dark aura surrounded Lucifer, creating a new attire for him, one that made him look like a Demon Lord, his majestic demonic horns giving him a distinct look.
As Lucifer took a step forward, the man started decaying, turning into dust.
Not letting the dust fall on his maid, Lucifer flicked his finger, sending the dust flying.
"W-who?" The other man spoke, his expressions filled with horror.
However, as he stepped back, he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Death."
A single word fell in his ears. He couldn't even see who had spoken when he felt a soul crunching pain inside his body,
The man died the most gruesome deaths, writhing in agony as his body twisted and contorted in unnatural ways.
The screams echoed through the air, sending chills down the spines of the maid as well.
Finally, as his life force was taken away, his body lay still and lifeless on the ground. The air grew heavy with an eerie silence, broken only by the sound of Lucifer stomping on the man's skull, letting blood splash everywhere.
The maid looked at Lucifer, fear visible in her eyes as well. She had never seen this man before. Although from his physical characteristics, he looked like he was a part of the Ancient Clan and he had killed the enemies, but she felt scared.
