Inhuman Warlock
chapter-259

Cassius and Veracity also joined them, getting out of the cars.

"This is where you live? God, I thought you were fugitives, living in some small underground place. To know you live in such lavishness, I guess you really are talented," Veracity said as she stared at the massive mansion.

"Don't worry; this is just the start of what's to come," Lucifer lazily said as he walked towards the door that was opened by Jiang.

"Jiang, arrange the rooms near ours for the two of them. As for Ayn, I'll keep her in my room, so she doesn't escape," he further told Jiang before he entered.

Climbing the beautiful round stairs, he reached the higher floor and entered his room, where he placed Ayn on his massive bed.

"Ah, does he not understand how it seems when he says he'll stay in a room with Ayn after making her sit on his lap?" Veracity asked, chuckling.

"I doubt he understands. He's a bit weak in that department even though he's excellent in everything else," Jiang replied, smiling wryly. "Come, I'll show you your room."

Veracity and Cassius entered the mansion, which looked even better on the inside than it did outside.

Everything inside the mansion looked expensive.

"Whose place is this? You also have a billionaire in your team?" Veracity inquired, asking for clarification.

"Actually I'm the one. It's my mansion. And it's not the only mansion I own. I'm pretty rich after all," Jiang explained, gloating.

"Why did you personally take the risk of going out then? If you're the funding of this team, shouldn't you stay hidden, in the shadows?" Veracity asked, following after Jiang, who was taking them upstairs.

"I personally had to go since he actually can't drive. And he didn't want a random driver," Jiang explained. "Moreover, even if I died, so what? He can just create another billionaire like he created me."

"He created you?" Veracity inquired, stunned.

"That's right. I was nothing but a poor bloke until a few weeks ago. All this wealth... It's given to me by him. You have no idea how clever he was with this. He basically tricked the whole world," Jiang said, laughing.

"Anyway, this will be your room. It's right beside mine. There are actually no servants here right now since we only recently room over."

" As for the old servants, they are, ah, on leave. So you'll have to handle it for now. You won't have any problem tomorrow," he further explained as he pointed towards a room.

"It's fine. I lived alone. I can take care of myself," Veracity replied, without being upset.

"That's better. One more thing, you shouldn't leave the mansion without informing us first since you'll probably be wanted too. We can't have you be seen outside. Other than that, you're free to do anything," Jiang told Veracity, who walked inside her room.

"I understand, boss. I won't leave. At least not without telling any of you," Veracity said. "For now, let me rest. I'm tired as well."

She closed the gates of her room.

Jiang shifted his attention to Cassius.

"As for you, big guy. Your room will be on the other side of me. That one," he said as he pointed towards a room in the distance while escorting Cassius.

Cassius opened the door to look inside the well-decorated room.

"Rest for now. We'll talk about the rest tomorrow. Also, there are the same rules for you. Don't go out alone, or you'll bring trouble to us," Jiang reminded him before Cassius closed the door.

"Now to me, I should also sleep. Finally, I'll get to sleep on a bed instead of a car. It feels like a dream come true." He chuckled as he also walked inside his room.

He took a warm shower, giving his muscles a relaxing moment before he walked to his bed.

As soon as Jiang laid on the bed, he felt like he was going to cry. The moment he dreamt about from so long was finally here as he could sleep on a soft bed.

He didn't want this feeling to end. He was so tired that he didn't even realize when he fell asleep.

....

Lucifer, on the other hand, had left everyone free to do whatever they wanted as he entered his room.

He sat on the bed, glancing at Ayn, who seemed like she was peacefully sleeping. But he knew that she was unconscious because of the last electrocution.

He stood up and walked to the doors which he locked. He kept the key hidden in a place where he was sure Ayn couldn't find it. He didn't want her to run when he was sleeping.

As for the room, it didn't have any windows either. Since he didn't like the light, he had selected a room without a window. Joe had instead placed a wall-mounted TV in place of a window that showed various scenes of nature.

As Lucifer wasn't interested in it, he kept it off mostly.

"Hopefully, you will have learned your lesson next time. Don't do anything annoying when you wake up," he told Ayn as he laid beside her. He was also pretty sleepy.

Turning on the AC, he closed his eyes as he fell asleep as well.

Unfortunately, just as he had expected, Ayn woke up later, only two hours after he had fallen asleep.

After getting electrocuted for so long, she had learned her lesson. But she still didn't know that everything was because of her bracelet.

This time instead of attacking, she wanted to ask her kidnappers why they kept her alive, but as she looked around, she found herself in a room. There was darkness everywhere, but her eyes could see a little bit.

She noticed a man sleeping beside her.

'This perverted man, first he made me sit on his lap, and now he wants to sleep on the same bed? This bastard!' she thought as she clenched her fist.

She made sure not to make any noise.

She still hadn't realized that the man before her was Lucifer since he looked slightly different.

She carefully observed her surroundings to see if someone was keeping an eye on her.

As she found no one here, she decided that it was the right time. No one could stop her from using her powers now since no one was awake.

She carefully moved to sit near Lucifer, facing him so she could attack directly.

She stared at Lucifer as she raised her hand to call forth her power once again.

"Arghhhh!"

She screamed once again as she fell unconscious, falling on top of Lucifer, who woke up from her scream.
