Inhuman Warlock Chapter 757

Chapter 757

The white ropes wrapped all around Lucifer, tying his hands, his knees, his feet, and even his chest, bringing him down to his knees.
Two of the white ropes pulled his hand to either side, making him unable to move even an inch. Just a little more force in the rope would've been enough to tear his body apart.
"You can't use abilities, but still, you're a decent fighter, but what now? What can you do when you can't even move?" Xaen asked as he stepped closer to Lucifer.
Lucifer held the sword of Xaen firmly, but it was a struggle for him to keep it holding since his wrists were burning because of the ropes.
He couldn't even use that sword as his hands were tied.
Xaen stopped before Lucifer.
"I suppose that belongs to me?"
Following a casual flick of his fingers, another Portal appeared near them. The portal this time was much smaller. It was only half a meter wide.
The Portal flew towards Lucifer, swallowing the sword along with the hand of Lucifer.
It stopped after it swallowed the hand of Lucifer, only stopping after reaching the wrist.
Lucifer tried to pull his hand out, but the ropes made it impossible.
"Worried now?" Xaen asked, smiling. He snapped his fingers.
Not even waiting for Lucifer's reply, he snapped his fingers. The Portal closed on itself. By the time the Portal disappeared, a painful grunt escaped Lucifer's lips.
The portal sliced his hand along with the sword. Another portal opened before Xaen.
The Sword came falling from the portal with the hand of Lucifer.
Xaen only grabbed the hilt of his Sword, letting Lucifer's hand fall on the ground.
He stepped on the detached hand of Lucifer as he stepped even closer.
He placed the tip of his sword on top of Lucifer's hand, preparing to thrust.
"You know, I realized something," Lucifer said. His tone remained perfectly calm.
"What did you realize?" Xaen didn't want to waste more time, but he still wanted to hear the last words of Lucifer.
"The flaws of these Limiters and the reason you didn't use them before," Lucifer said.
The smile on Xaen's face disappeared. Without waiting, he thrust his sword down.
Lucifer tilted his head sideways as if he knew the exact timing of the attack.
Even though he protected his head, the sword still stabbed his shoulder, penetrating deep inside, right from the edge of his neck.
Boom~
One after another, the Limiters started exploding. Xaen pulled out his sword hastily and swung it again, but this time he didn't succeed as the figure of Lucifer disappeared.
The ropes that were holding onto him fell on the ground.
The shadows once again came out of the ground, taking Eve and disappearing into the shadow realm.
Lucifer appeared a few meters back, patting his clothes.
"The reason you didn't use them was because you knew they couldn't hold me for long? They are a neat toy that can disperse the energy in the body, but even they have limits on how much energy they can store and disperse."
"The reason you didn't use it on me was because you knew I had more than one ability. The Limiter might be able to hold a full fledged strength of one or two abilities, but when the abilities are ten, twenty, or even hundreds, all working at the same time, these Limiters can't stand."
"That's why you wanted to go with the permanent solution instead of using these. And I was using Energy Negation at that time."
"If I'm not wrong, the source that's inside the Limiter in the upgraded version, they also work on the principle of an energy core. That's why energy negation was disrupting it."
"Since you couldn't use your abilities, you knew it wouldn't work there as well. The only way it would've worked is if I wasn't using Energy Negation when you activated it, so it would've stopped my Energy Negation from coming into effect."
"You put so much thought into it but couldn't remove the main flaw. Even without Energy Negation, it's easy for me to destroy them."
Hearing the explanation of Lucifer, Xaen felt his face twitch. How did this guy find out everything so fast?
"Now that we're done, I think it's time I settle some scores now."
Lucifer spread his Energy Negation field all around him before glancing at the man who had used the ropes on him.
"You...." He raised his hand towards the man.
The man felt an invisible force acting on his body. The force raised the man in the air before dragging him towards Lucifer.
The man stopped right before Lucifer. He tried using his ropes to escape, but under the Energy Negation, his ropes were coming. He couldn't even do anything else. He was in the same place that Lucifer was in before.
"You like bringing people to their knees, right? What a funny coincidence; I like that too!"
Two wing blades sliced through the legs of the man. The pain was so bad that the man's scream could be heard far and wide.
His legs buckled as he dropped to his knees, roaring in pain.
"Now, stay there."
Lucifer turned to the other head that he hadn't seen before.
"You didn't do anything to me so far, but I heard you mention that you wanted to kill this kid alone? I'll give you something to play with."
A shadow soldier appeared before the white haired man, carrying a sword.
Lucifer looked towards Xaen, who was teleporting all around the room, finding a way to leave, but there was no exit. All he could do was keep changing his place until he found a solution.
Lucifer glanced at the sword of Xaen, which was lying on the ground. Following his single gesture, the sword flew to the white haired man.
"You have a weapon; my shadow has a weapon. You can't use your abilities; my shadow can't use my abilities. It should be fair. Let me see what you're capable of," Lucifer said as the white haired man held the sword.
The shadow started attacking him like a brave knight that was excited for battle.
Lucifer turned to Alexi and Mirali.
"The two teachers... You taught me a lot. And I'm grateful for that. But you also tried to kill me. What should I do with you two?"
The two of them looked at Lucifer, not knowing what to say. The Energy Negation had made them weaker.
They still had some abilities that they could use even under the energy negation, especially Alexi, who didn't have many elemental abilities.
