Inhuman Warlock-Chapter 955 : Reverse Summon

"I'll be using that to create a path back for you all," Lucifer answered. "We need someone to cast a summoning spell that connects our two realms. As you said, we can't wait for luck like last time, hoping someone was going to be summoned. This time, I need to take matters into my own hands."

Not a single person on earth had managed to establish a contract with such a Summoned Beast who was so powerful at the time of the contract, but Lucifer believed that he could do it as long as the man in question agreed in advance.

"Aren't you already here though? How can the summoning establish a contract between our world and earth when the summoner himself is on our world? Why would my father be Summoned to you when he's already next to you, even if he agreed?"

Hun didn't know much about summoning, but he didn't understand just how it was going to work. Even if his father agreed, there seemed no possible way.

"The Summoning Circle doesn't establish a connection between the two beings when performing a Summon. It establishes a connection with earth for that summon," Lucifer answered. "In other words, even if I am right next to my summoned beast when I perform a Summon, a conduit between two worlds is established." ƒ𝑟𝐞ewe𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝚎l. 𝒄o𝗺

Even though Lucifer explained in technical terms, it was clear from everyone's faces that they didn't understand much. It was as if everything went over their heads.

"I'll make it even simpler." He walked closer to Hun. "Suppose you're my tamed beast. If I am on earth, and you are here, then you'll be Summoned to earth directly. But if you're already on earth next to me and I Summon you again for some reason, you'll be sent back to this world and then summoned again."

"Similarly, if you are here with me and I summon you, first you'll be Summoned to earth and then sent next to me in this World. Even if I'm in a third World when summoning you, you'll be Summoned to earth and then sent to me. As I said, the earth acts as a connecting point between each summon."

Lucifer was trapped in this world last time and experienced how troublesome it could be to find a way back. That's why, when he went back, he consulted many knowledgeable people on this matter to get their help in finding a way back.

He was already planning to return to this world to get a Fragment, so it was necessary for him to find a way back. That's when they all came up with this solution. At that time, he didn't know that it was going to come in handy in a situation like this though.

The middle aged man still shook his head in confusion. "I still didn't understand what you said, but if you're sure it'll work, I have no problem. As long as it will save my family, I'll agree to the summoner contract."

"Wait. You're the Patriarch of this clan?" Hun chimed in. "You are more important to the clan than me. If something went wrong, we might lose you. I think I should become his Summoned Beast."

"Would that be possible?" he asked Lucifer.

Lucifer could only reject the offer. "As I said before, it's not possible."

"Why?"

"If we were sending a few humans back, it would've been fine. But we are sending a few High Beasts. To make the summoning circle stronger and safer to handle that plan, we need it to belong to your father. Once the Summoning Circle is calibrated to his strength, it should be much safer."

Lucifer genuinely didn't care who became his summoned beast since they weren't of much help to him. The middle aged man might be powerful on earth's standards, but where Lucifer stood, that strength was too insignificant.

"I agree." The man didn't resist the proposal, eventually agreeing to it. His family's life was on the line. If he hesitated now and something happened to his family, he knew that he was never going to forgive himself.

He went down on one knee before Lucifer. "Tell me what I need to do. I'll do that."

"You don't need to do much. Just don't resist the contracting process. Since we're both in the same world, it should be easier."

The time was of the essence at the moment since the Royal Guards could be here at any time. He wanted to send all these people back first before he started letting loose. He didn't want to hurt them in the process.

Lucifer placed his hand on the middle aged man's forehead before closing his eyes. He started using his Summoning Core to establish a Contract between the patriarch of the Snow Wolf Clan and himself. That contract was established much more swiftly than even he could've expected.

Within ten seconds, the contract was established and even accepted by the middle aged man. There appeared to be no major problems for now.

Not wanting to raise any red flags, he didn't comment on how smoothly everything went.

He just stepped back and informed everyone that it was a success.

"I'll be using the Summoning Spell. Stay ready and jump on the formation when I tell you that it's ready."

Hun walked closer to his father. Yui and her mother also walked closer as the entire family was ready to leave.

Lucifer cast the Summoning right away. It was his first time using a summoning. Even though he had that ability for a long time, he had never tried to establish a Contract with anyone since he didn't get much free time. He was always so busy that he kept pushing it back against and again.

The air in the room turned colder. A beautiful blue formation circle appeared in the middle of the room, revealing the beautiful pattern that was different from any summoning circle that was seen in this world. The summoning circle was even bigger than the one that he used last time to go back.

As soon as the summoning circle appeared, Lucifer cast his decay on it, creating a flaw in the summoning before it could even begin. A spatial vacuum was created above the Formation Circle, which tried to push everything that was in the room toward it.

Lucifer used his own wind to keep himself away from the Summoning Formation. He couldn't afford to leave this place, at least not at this moment.

"Now, jump on the formation!"

Hearing his instructions, Hun and his father jumped on the formation. After taking a brief glance at Lucifer, Yui also jumped on the formation.

"Why aren't you coming?" Even after they all stepped on the Formation Circle, they realized that Lucifer wasn't coming. They thought he was just joking around when he said before that he wasn't coming, but looking at his hesitation, it seemed true.

"I told you, I won't be coming," Lucifer answered. "I have many things to handle here before I can leave."

"If you stay behind, you'll have to face the entire Royal Army again. Don't be stupid! It's not as easy as you think!" Hun explained, slightly worried for Lucifer. "You hadn't seen them yet! They are the strongest of this world! Even my father can't stand against one of them, let alone so many. And the Emperor is just something that's like a god! You need to come with us?"

"Even if he's the Emperor of this world, for now, he won't be for long. If I don't do it, someone else will. Your Emperor is doomed to fall. Don't worry. I'll be perfectly fine. I have some help as well. You can leave without any worries. Oh right, don't forget to give my message to my family."

"Tell them that I'm doing good and I should be back from my journey soon."

Last time he was taken by the Star Alliance after being arrested. He was sure that his people were apprehensive about him already. They must've lied to his family about him going on a journey, but that didn't mean they weren't trying to find him themselves.

Through the Snow Wolf Clan, he could send a message to them that he was doing fine. That was enough to put them at ease.

"But-" Yui also tried speaking, but before she could, she disappeared along with her family. The formation sent them to earth, even when it was flawed before it stopped working.

After the entire family left, the room returned to silence again.

"That takes care of one problem. Now the second..." He walked to the window, taking a look outside. He could feel some powerful auras approaching. It looked like the Royal Guards were finally here.

"Hmm?" He felt some extreme sense of danger which put even him on alert. He disappeared from the room and appeared on the roof of a distant building, watching the Snow Wolf Clan mansion explode. Only a crater was left where the mansion used to be.
