Inhuman Warlock-Chapter 977: Breakthrough
Finally, Lucifer had complete control of the ship, with only his friends working as the ship crew, who were more loyal to him than tothe Star Alliance. This allowed him a greater degree of freedom to pursue his goals in the future.
He had more or less brought everyone that had worked with him, including Kellian, Tristan, Salazar, and Yaliza.
He also brought Alicia, who was rescued from the Lab by the Variant Uprising and always worked with him. Amongst his crew, there was also Vampire Queen Milena and her loyal subordinate Arthur, who had the ability of teleportation.
One more person that he brought with him was the young lady who helped establish the underwater Kingdom, only to be backstabbed by them. Thanks to her, she was back as well. However, unlike before where she knew everything that was happening on earth, even she didn't know anything about this part of the universe.
Those were just the main members of the uprising that he brought with him. His father was left on earth, being the strongest warlock. Even though there was no threat to him for now, Lucifer still sent some members back to earth to help them handle things if a situation arose.
Lucifer met up with everyone. Even though it hadn't been a long time, he still felt as if he hadn't seen those people for decades.
"Don't forget, our bet is still active," Tristan whispered in Kellian's ears while Lucifer greeted the other members.
"Does it even matter? No matter who he marries now, I'm afraid we've passed the point of helping him. Only he can decide. Moreover, doesn't he have another woman with him? They seem quite close," Kellian answered. "Just focus on the given task. He's still young. I'm sure he knows what he's doing."
"One would think so, but don't you know him? He's always more focused on the mission than he is on his personal life," Tristan sighed. "Moreover, it's a question of dignity. I want to see which one of us was right. I'm sure I'll be winning!"
"We'll see." Kellian could only shrug. He was made the Vice Captain of the Ship as it was under Lucifer's authority. All his team members were made Star Alliance members, thanks to him. No other Captain had as much privilege as Lucifer was given.
After he introduced his team members to the General and the Generals to them, everyone settled down. It was time to take off.
Once again, Lucifer's ship was escorted by two General Rank ships that brought him to the domain of the Nimel Clan, a world that was completely covered in ice.
Before landing, General Nimel advised everyone to wear warmer clothes if they were afraid of the cold since the temperature outside easily went down to negative fifty-degree celsius.
Lucifer didn't feel the need for warm clothes, but just as a precaution, he wore some warmer clothes and a warm jacket.
Since Lucifer had introduced his crew members as his friends, they were allowed to come down and be the guests of the Nimel Clan as well. As for arranging the rooms, the old man didn't feel like there was any problem with that.
Lucifer left the ship and was brought inside the Nimel Clan, where Raayi's parents were waiting for him. In the last month, General Nimel had already told his son everything about Lucifer since he didn't want his son to make the same mistake that General Nimel did.
His son was very careful not to offend General Ostrin and Lucifer, but he did seem a bit surprised. After hearing everything about Lucifer, he expected the man to be quite different. He couldn't sense any strength from Lucifer. Other than his extraordinary looks, he couldn't see anything special.
Since he didn't doubt his father's words, he could only believe that Lucifer was keeping it hidden. Did Lucifer not want his secrets to be seen? That wasn't bad either.
He was also informed that Raayi was particularly fond of this guy. It was the first time that his daughter even paid attention to any man in that manner.
Instead of being upset with her, he was happy. He had always expected that his daughter was going to stay single since it was impossible to find a guy she was happy with. However, she found one herself, and that man was the shining star of Star Alliance with unlimited future potential. He didn't worry about her.
Despite being happy with her decision, as a father, he still wanted to get to know more about Lucifer in general.
"Little brother, welcome to our home. I've heard a lot about you," Raayi's father greeted Lucifer. "Are you tired? If not, how about you accompany me to drinks?"
Lucifer wasn't tired and didn't worry about drinking with someone since alcohol didn't affect him much; however, he still refused and asked to be taken to his room.
"I feel like I'm closer to a breakthrough. I just want to go to the room and work on becoming stronger. However, I want to do it without disturbance."
Not only Raayi's Father, he told the same words to the two Generals before landing here. He had already planned on what to do. It was impossible to leave with the ship white leaving the Two Generals behind. There was only one way that he could think of... Staying with them while leaving at the same time.
Since these people didn't know about his strength structure as to how his body worked while getting stronger, he made an excuse that he could get stronger with training and times, and every few years, he had a breakthrough to get even stronger where he needed to completely isolate himself.
With the excuse of Isolation, he found a way to get some time to gain some privacy where he could sneak out. He had also settled all his pawns in places. Now it was just time to make his move.
Since he had already asked the Generals permission to isolate himself and meditate in his room, none could say anything. They could only allow Lucifer to do as he pleased if it meant he was going to become stronger.
