Inhuman Warlock Chapter 723 - 723

Chapter 723 - 723

Lucifer stepped out of the hospital through the window. The cars were still burning. The cops who had survived were so injured that they couldn't even stand up even if they wanted.
They held their guns firmly as they watched Lucifer stepping close to them.
"You must be the chief," Lucifer said, grabbing the chubby man by his collar.
He dragged the man's body with him inside the hospital.
"Go ahead. Call your department. I want all the cops in the city to be here in the next thirty minutes. If they're not here... Let's leave that to your imagination, shall we?"
"Oh, while you're at it, contact some media houses as well. I want to put up a show like this nation has never seen before. He wants to save the people? Let's see how he avoids coming here."
He gave a phone to the chief of police. "If I were in your place, I would act fast. That's all I'll say. I leave the rest to your better judgment."
The chief did as Lucifer said since the entire hospital was held hostage by Lucifer in a way. So far, Lucifer hadn't killed any patient, but the man didn't want to take a chance.
He called the station and told them to send all the cops that were on duty. The news channels were already on their way to the site when he called the stations.
Media helicopters from all significant networks were en route to the hospital.
"I did as you said. Now don't hurt anyone innocent."
"What's the hurry? There's still one person to call. I want you to call Xaen Eandril here."
"Master Xaen? How can I call him? I don't even know where he is or how to contact him. He could've been found at the academy, but the academy has been closed. I'm not even sure if he's in the city."
"You don't have to worry about that. He's in the city. If you don't know how to contact him, then find someone who may kn-" Mid-sentence, Lucifer looked towards the door.
"I'm sure you can come up with a way. Try appealing through the media for Xaen to come save everyone," Hr said before looking towards the door.
He could see lights flashing outside and the sound of the arrival of helicopters. "In the meantime, I'll see the new guests."
He stepped out of the door; he noticed two helicopters land before him.
Around thirteen people stepped out of the helicopters. Amongst the thirteen, there was only one person that Lucifer found interesting.
The man who was in charge of their class at the Academy of Gifted Variants and the leader of the Franci family himself.
"What are you doing here?" Lucifer asked Franci.
"It's funny to see you not addressing me as Teacher." Franci smiled.
"You were a teacher of a person who didn't exist. I'm not him," Lucifer responded. "Answer me. Why are you here? This doesn't involve you."
"Isn't that something I should ask you? You ran away, and now you're back, killing innocents?" Franci asked in response. "And you say it doesn't concern me? How about killing humans in my area, and then you're surprised to see me here?"
"Your area?" Lucifer asked, bursting into laughter. "If this is your area, that village will be your area as well? You came so fast when I killed someone. Where were you when Xaen killed her in your area as well?"
"It's just like that day. None of you came when your Grandson Dash and his friends were beating me. But when I killed them, all the teachers came right away. You'll have to come up with a better story."
"Keep the name of my son out of your mouth, you snake!" Norn roared, hearing Lucifer talk about killing his son like it was no big deal.
"I'm only stating the truth. I killed him, and he deserved it," Lucifer stated.
"You will die!" Norn roared as his skin started turning darker. Before long, he was pitch black as if he was made from pure darkness.
He swung his right hand, shooting out a wave of darkness towards Lucifer.
A dark shroud flew towards Lucifer, swallowing everything on its path in nothingness.
Lucifer didn't even flinch in the face of the attack. He simply snapped his fingers. With a snap of his finger, a barrier appeared before him.
The beautiful barrier surrounded Lucifer in a sphere, protecting him from the darkness that was trying to destroy anything in its path.
Lucifer could see the barrier getting weakened before the darkness. The darkness was slowly eating up his barrier.
He folded his arms, waiting inside the sphere.
"Stop hiding, you coward!" Norn yelled.
Lucifer didn't respond.
The barrage of attack made purely from darkness kept assaulting the barrier nonstop. Norn didn't care how much energy he wasted. He just wanted to destroy Lucifer.
"Norn, calm down," Franci tried to stop his son, but Norn ignored him.
"Father, please don't try to stop me! He killed my son! He deserves death!"
"Yes, Father, you should let him do what he wants. Why are you worrying for Lucifer? Didn't you hear him say that he isn't your student?" Franci's second son also sided with Norn.
He also hated the fact that someone dared to kill his nephew. It was so insulting. Finally, they could settle the scores.
"But-"
"No buts, Father. If you want Dash's soul to rest in peace, please don't stop me today! You need to make a choice!" Norn exclaimed, not letting his father complete the sentence.
"You want your son, or you want the killer of your grandson. If you tried to save this guy, I'll forever leave this island and never see your face. Decide what you want?" he further stated.
"If you don't want that, stand back and don't interfere!"
Franci had arrived here to capture Lucifer and to keep his family members safe in case Lucifer was dangerous, but after coming here, all he saw was Lucifer hiding behind a barrier.
It gave a subtle hint that he probably overestimated Lucifer. Moreover, it was clear that his son had an advantage. After seeing the heightened emotions of his son and hearing his sharp words, Franci dropped the thought of saving Lucifer.
He observed all the dead bodies of the guards in the surroundings, letting out a deep sigh.
In the choice between a former student and his own son, he selected his son. Especially since Lucifer had already killed people here.
"Fine. You can kill him. I don't interfere," Franci said as he took a step back.
Standing inside the barrier, Lucifer smirked at the words of Franci.
