Inhuman Warlock Chapter 380 - 380: Offer

Chapter 380 - 380: Offer

Just as Salazar was about to kill Kellian, a pitch-black lightning bolt fell from the sky.
Entering the domain of Salazar, even the lighting bolt slowed down but still, its speed wasn't to be taken lightly. At the last moment, Salazar jumped back, dodging the bolt.
Due to the destruction caused by the lightning, Salazar was distracted. Kellian came to his senses and realized that everything he was seeing before was fake. He was still on the roof.
He noticed Salazar looking up in surprise. He also looked up, noticing a flying figure in the distance.
The sky was still mostly clear, but clouds had started forming all over the city, making this whole place a domain of Lucifer, who was in the sky, keeping his distance from Salazar.
Lucifer was informed about the powers of Salazar, which Vega had managed to guess. As his domain was able to cover the entire building, Lucifer kept his distance from him.
"Lucifer Azarel! You're here!" Salazar yelled, looking at Lucifer.
The winds started getting colder.
"Why are you looking for me?! And why did you attack my men?!" Lucifer asked directly.
"Come down! Why are you so far away? I'm not here to hurt you! We can talk in peace! I'm here to help you!" Salazar replied.
"I don't need your help!"
"At least let me explain first! Come down! I can't talk like this! Screaming hurts my throat! Just know, your father was my idol. And I want to help his son! I swear on my life that I'm not here to hurt you! I know you're simply manipulated by these people!"
Lucifer started coming down but still kept a safe distance.
"Why do you want to help me? After all these years?"
" Where were you all when I needed help?! Where were you when I was all alone?! Where were you when I had nothing?! Now that I have everything, you came to help me?!" Lucifer roared.
Salazar took a deep breath, sighing.
"I know you suffered a lot, and I wasn't there to help you! And I regret that the most. But it's because I didn't know about all that! I didn't know that people would hurt the son of Zale Azarel! I thought you'd get a good life! I was careless!"
"After I found out what happened, I tried to search for you for years, but I couldn't find you! Now that I found you, please let me help! Come down and just listen to me for once! I'm sure you'll understand!"
Lucifer grew lost in some deep thought, hearing the words of Salazar.
Seeing Lucifer thinking seriously, Salazar nodded in satisfaction. He realized his words were working.
"I know. Your experience made you tough! You think the whole world is bad and that you need to live this chaotic life, but it's not the truth!"
" It doesn't have to be this way! I know you want a peaceful life now that you have finished your revenge! Let me take you far away from this life!" Salazar continued.
"Think carefully! Life can be much better if you come with me! You'll live the life that you deserve, far away from this bloodshed!"
"A new life?" Lucifer asked as his body continued getting closer to the roof.
He looked solemn as if thinking seriously about this offer.
"Exactly! A new life where you can just relax! You don't have to carry all the burden on your shoulders! I'll keep you safe! Not a single person would be able to harm you! You want it too, don't you?" Salazar asked caringly.
" I know, inside all that hard exterior is a normal boy that dreams for a normal life? Come and let's leave this place together!"
"Let me show you how great you could be in the future! Let me make you something your father and my idol could be proud of!" he continued, stepping ahead.
The sky that was mostly covered in clouds stopped roaring, becoming silent.
Lucifer kept getting closer and closer and soon landed in front of Salazar, inside his domain range.
Salazar had stopped his domain though. He didn't want to make Lucifer think that he was an enemy for using his abilities on him.
"Can my parents be proud of me after all I did? I've killed hundreds of people. Can I become a different person?" Lucifer asked softly.
"Of course you can change! Your past can't define your future! Only you can decide what your future will be, and I'll be on that journey with you!"
"You'll certainly become someone worthy of being the son of Zale Azarel," Salazar said, placing his hand on Lucifer's shoulder.
"Really? I can become that?" Lucifer asked, conflicted.
Standing in the back, Kellian was taken aback. Was Lucifer really going to accept this offer? Was he going to give up all he achieved?
"You can, and you will. All you need to do is take my hand and come with me," Salazar said softly as he took off his hand from the shoulder of Lucifer.
He reached out his hand towards Lucifer, offering him to take his hand.
Lucifer looked at the hands of Salazar, ultimately nodding.
"I'll take your hand. But I can't accept your offer." Abruptly, Lucifer moved his right hand towards the hand of Salazar. Hidden in his hand was something really important.
A beautiful bracelet was in his hand, which was none other than the Limiter he had stolen from the Academy.
Before Salazar could realize what had happened, the bracelet was already around his wrist, wrapped tightly.
"What is this?" Salazar asked, frowning. He didn't understand why this bracelet was on his wrist and what it was.
"This is something which will keep you in your place. You've lost, Warlock King Salazar," Lucifer declared proudly.
"I can kill you any moment I want now," he said before glancing back at the bodies of four dead Warlocks behind him. "Just like you killed my men."
"Don't worry though. I won't kill you. I have something else planned for you. But one thing is certain. I'm not going anywhere with you, and neither are you. You'll stay here for as long as I want."
The terrace doors opened, and tens of Warlocks stepped out, prepared to fight.
Lucifer glanced at the newly arrived Warlocks.
"You're a little late. Take him. I'll decide what to do with him later," he commanded the Warlocks.
"Kellian, make sure to keep him in a safe place from where he can't run. I want two Warlocks keeping an eye on him every second."
Just as Lucifer finished giving orders, a deep sigh fell in his ears.
"As I expected, you're too deep in their manipulation. I'll first take you away from here with force. And then we can work on you," Salazar said, sighing. "For now, let me take care of everyone else."
Lucifer glanced at Salazar, amused, knowing what was coming.
