Modern World Warlock-Chapter 111: Dante and Lilith’s Old Deal

After a few hours of napping, Dante woke up to the sound of cars arriving outside his home, sensing the umbra of Camille approaching.

When the handler entered the home, Sophia and Victoria came down to greet her, with Lilith walking behind them.

"I see you all got acquainted," Camille commented.

"Mhmm, I've grown fond of these girls, so I've taken it upon myself to shield them," Lilith declared, placing her arms behind Sophia and Victoria's shoulders.

"Yeah… Alright," Camille said, slightly confused as that was what she was supposed to do from the beginning.

Behind Camille, Detective June entered the place, excusing herself as she went through the front door.

Thanks to the information they obtained from Captain Slacks, they knew the location where Alice had been taken.

On the outskirts of Novis, there was a colossal factory building that had been abandoned for over twenty years, and the police captain said that was the place where Nihilor took his victims.

Camille deployed a drone to scout the area, but it couldn't detect anyone near the building, so she couldn't give Dante a detailed description of their defenses.

Moreover, Trinity had sent warning letters to most news stations in Novaria, warning them about terrorist threats in public spaces.

They knew that telling the news stations wouldn't deter the Blood Dragons from committing their terrorist acts, but the handler thought that it could at least lower the number of victims if they made it public.

The five succubi, who were currently undercover with Astaroth, didn't know the exact location of Highpoint Town, so they described the area to the handler, explaining that there was a large cathedral in front of a plaza.

When Camille gave that information to Trinity, the hacker said that there were several small residential areas with cathedrals, so their search wasn't much shorter.

Still, the hacker made a list of every area on the outskirts of Novis with a cathedral and passed it to the Jade Dragons.

After Camille gave the summary, Dante nodded in acknowledgment and gazed at Detective June.

"Ummm…" the warlock muttered, thinking of a way to politely ask the woman why she was there.

"Yeah… She wants to talk to you," Camille said before Dante could speak up.

As the warlock approached the seemingly nervous detective, the woman looked up into his crimson eyes confidently.

"I want to accompany you!" June exclaimed.

Dante didn't react to her words, but to the umbra she extruded, sensing a mixture of uncertainty and bravery that he found somewhat admirable.

'She is terrified but still wants to go save her superior… This woman could've been an extraordinary warrior in my world,' Dante thought, letting out a smirk.

"Sure," he said.

"I promise I won't get in your way, and I'm also good with a gun… Wait—you said yes?" June pondered aloud, slightly shocked that Dante accepted so quickly.

The woman wasn't aware that all Dante needed was a good look at someone's umbra to understand their full intentions—no words were ever required to convince him of something, only ambition.

"Good. Whenever you are ready, Neil is waiting outside to drive you guys," Camille said to the pair.

June went out first, and as Dante was about to follow, Camille grabbed him by the shoulder. "Sorry for making it more difficult on you… Can you ensure that June is safe?" she whispered.

"Heh, I got it. I've never left anyone behind, you know?" Dante replied.

Once the pair got inside the SUV with Neil behind the wheel, Camille took out a laptop and sat behind the kitchen counter, plugging her earphones into the machine.

While Dante was going to the abandoned factory, Megan and Zac were sent to one of the Ruby Vipers' bases to raid it, so Camille had two different live feeds open on her computer.

"Oh, I see… With this machine, you can see what Dante is doing," Lilith commented as she inspected the handler's laptop.

Sophia and Victoria were curious to watch the live feeds just as much as Lilith as they had never seen them in action, prompting everyone in the house to take a seat around Camille and her computer.

While they waited for the respective groups to reach their destinations, Sophia asked the succubus queen how she was acquainted with Dante.

"Oh, we go way back…" Lilith commented.

The queen explained that, a very long time ago, Dante was traveling through hell and had to go across her territory.

Lilith, the Succubus Queen, was the sole ruler of the territory in hell known as Lustreth, where all succubi resided.

When the warlock tried to cross, the queen felt defied and sent her forces to deal with him, which consisted of five hundred thousand succubi. However, Dante ended up wiping out 30% of her troops.

"Thirty percent!?" Sophia exclaimed.

'That's one hundred and fifty thousand killed!' The blonde thought as she did the math in her head.

"You should have seen him. He looked so sexy as he ripped to shreds thousands of my subordinates!" Lilith commented, blushing and moaning slightly with a smile.

Camille, Victoria, and Sophia were a bit unsettled by the way she described Dante as being sexy as he killed thousands of succubi, but they quickly remembered that they were talking to a demon.

"Still, as much as I would have loved seeing him kill all of my sisters—as the ruler, I couldn't allow that to happen…" Lilith continued.

She explained that she had to meet Dante before he could continue his rampage and ended up making a deal with him, where she gave Dante free passage through her territory forever as long as he didn't kill any more of her sisters.

"That's… interesting," Camille muttered.

"You are not angry at him about that?" the handler continued.

"Angry? Dear… That's what made me fall in love with him!" Lilith replied with a mischievous smile.

For the succubus queen, seeing a man so savagely overpower her sisters was something that she had never seen before.

"Mmmm, that wicked smile he makes when he is about to kill a demon…" *slurp* Lillith said, licking her lips provocatively and chuckling to herself.

'What a crazy story… It would almost be funny if it weren't for the whole genocide…' Camille thought.
