Inhuman Warlock Chapter 750

Chapter 750

Lucifer stood before a well, observing the surroundings.
Three strange creatures were standing at some distance from the well.
All three of them looked like gargoyles with an ugly appearance, a lizard-like tail, and two dragon-like wings. The creatures looked like a beast, but they stood on their own two feet.
All three of them were laughing as they heard all the screams. There was a fourth creature that was standing farther away from them.
It had a similar appearance to the other three, but unlike the other three, he wasn't standing idle.
Instead, the fourth one was the reason behind threat screams.
There were many people sitting before the fourth Gargoyle who looked like humans yet different.
The people before the gargoyle had deep blue eyes, but their ears were longer than the ears of ordinary humans. They also had a small horn on their forehead.
The bodies around the well belonged to these people as well.
The gargoyle picked up a girl sitting in the distance, grabbing her throat. It was the same girl whose scream was echoing around.
The girl was small, looking like she was around thirteen years old. She was small, but her voice was very loud. Even from such a distance, her voice reached far and wide.
The gargoyle smirked at the girl. "It is fun to hear your scream; I'll let you live temporarily until I deal with the rest."
He tossed the girl away before moving on to the others.
He picked a different person.
This time, grabbing the throat of a young man, he raised the man in the air.
The man tried to free himself, but his strength was just too little.
His eyes opened wide as his throat was crusted. They soon lost their shine as the man died.
The sound of people crying was everywhere. Everyone knew they were going to die.
The Gargoyle pushed the body of the man towards the well where other bodies were lying.
As he tossed the body, he subconsciously looked towards the well.
Initially, he didn't notice it and turned back to the others, but his eyes took a second to register that he saw someone near the well.
He once again looked towards the well, stubbed.
His eyes met the eyes of Lucifer.
The gargoyle seemed like he couldn't believe his eyes. In fear, he took a step back as his body started shivering.
Hitting a stone behind him, the Gargoyle fell down as he kept repeating, "Why is he here?!"
The other Gargoyles noticed the reaction of their friend. They also looked towards the well, but their reaction was not much different. It was like they had seen a ghost.
"D-destroyer of Worlds! I thought he was just a story!"
All the Gargoyles turned around and started flying away without thinking twice.
The fourth Gargoyle who had fallen also struggled to stand as he flew away.
Lucifer seemed slightly stubbed. It was as if these people knew him. How was it possible? He didn't remember seeing them before?
"Am I in my future instead?" he muttered, frowning.
Just as he was thinking about following them, he heard the screams filled with agony.
He turned to the people, wondering why they were screaming, however as soon as he turned to them, even he was surprised.
The people there were screaming because their bodies were being decayed. By the time he noticed, most of them had already turned to dust.
Only a few people were left, but even they weren't doing good as their bodies were decaying.
"Is it because of me?"
Lucifer stepped closer to them, looking at his hands. He wasn't touching them. Why were they decaying?
It was only now that he noticed a violet mist around him that was spreading outwards.
"This mist? It's because of me?"
The trees also started getting destroyed.
He flew high in the sky, wondering if that was going to stop this, but the mist didn't move with him. It stayed in the forest, decaying everything.
Within seconds, everything was destroyed. Nothing was left of the forest. It was no different than the barren land where Lucifer was standing previously.
Only the violet mist was left, which started compressing in itself. The entire mist turned into one small water droplet which flew closer to Lucifer.
Lucifer watched the mist droplet which was flying closer to him. He didn't feel scared of the droplet. There was something he felt familiar in it.
He let the mist come closer. The mist landed on the back of Lucifer's right hand, being absorbed in it.
As soon as the mist was absorbed, he felt like he was slightly stronger now but not by much.
If his strength at the moment was a sea, the strength he gained was comparable to a droplet in the sea.
"Is this the next form of Decay? Destroying things without touching and getting the strength? But I didn't use this. So it's working as a passive ability like before?"
Lost in thoughts, he knew he needed answers, but there was no one who could give him an answer.
The only ones who could answer him were the Gargoyles, who seemed to have known something about him.
He located the Gargoyles who were flying away and started chasing them.
He didn't know when he was going to be sent back, so he didn't want to waste time by standing around.
....
"How can this be possible? Why is he here?! Did he just have to land in this world? How unlucky can we be?"
"I don't know what we should do. Where should we run? Where should we hide? We can't survive now that he's here since the entire world is going to be destroyed soon! We need to find a way to leave this world!'
"We can't leave this place either. It's impossible! So stop giving stupid ideas. I think the only way to stop him is to kill him! We should all attack him! Get everyone and fight! Our existence and the existence of this world is on the line!"
"Fight him? Did you not hear the stories about him? You must be crazy to think we can kill him!"
"The stories might be exaggerated. We need to do something! We can't just wait for our death! We need to do something! We should fight!"
The one who was advocating for fighting Lucifer stood still as he started trembling, seeing Lucifer in the distance.
The others also noticed Lucifer. Their faces turned pale as they didn't know what to do now.
"May I ask why you want to kill me?"
