Inhuman Warlock
chapter-666

He wanted to evolve another ability after absorbing them, but now all the plans were postponed since he was in an entirely different time at the moment.

"How many do you have? Is it just teleportation?" he asked Jestor.

"Yeah. So far, only this one ability. Still, it's one of the more powerful ones where I'm from. I'm considered a really important Variant there."

"I'm sure you would be. The ability of teleportation in this time would certainly be rare. When I heard about this ability the first time, I also thought that it was rare."

"I wonder why this ability didn't work on you. Do you have some kind of block or something?" Jestor asked.

"You can think of the possibilities. Isn't it more fun to guess?"

...

"Father, what are you trying to do! I was so close to him!"

"My dear daughter, leave him! We have an even better guy! He is so strong that he is no less than a god! Moreover, he looks much more handsome than that guy. I think you should go for him instead!"

"You mean the guy you were calling arrogant and ill-mannered?" The woman asked, frowning. "Have you gone crazy?"

"Well, I was wrong about him! He isn't arrogant. Well, he kinda is, but that's not the point! The point is that he is an incredible guy who can truly be called a King!"

Joan kept explaining to his daughter why he changed his mind.

"He would be right for you! You just have to make him fall for you. I'm sure it'll be interesting!"

"Please? Listen to your father this once?"

"But father, I met him as well. He didn't even look at me properly. I don't think he is the kind of person to fall easily for someone."

"I'm sure he was just pretending to not fall for you. Maybe he didn't want to look weak. But he personally came to me, offering this marriage. He truly wants you!"

"You won't even need to work hard to seduce him! He might be tough on the outside, but I'm sure he is like any ordinary guy on the inside."

"Sigh, fine. I will agree to it!" The woman ultimately gave in. "Where is he?"

"He is right there, waiting for you." Joan pointed towards Lucifer in the distance, who was sitting with a glass of wine in his hand, talking to Jestor.

"I'm going there. But you better hope you're right. If I flirt with him, I don't think I'll be able to try on his friend after it doesn't work out."

"Don't worry. I'm sure it'll work out! You'll do great!" Joan said, patting the shoulder of his daughter. "Now go ahead."

The woman took a deep breath before walking to Lucifer. Her first interaction with the guy hadn't been pleasant, but she couldn't deny that she did prefer Lucifer over Zale."

One was like an innocent angel, while the other was like a charming devil. She was indeed more attracted to the more devilish Lucifer as it was more fun to bring the devils on their knees.

"Hello," she said, sitting beside Lucifer. "My father said you wanted me to meet you."

"He was right. I certainly wanted to meet you," Lucifer replied.

"May I ask why?" She acted ignorant.

"Because I have fallen for you. Seeing you with him made me jealous and made me realize that I want you..." Lucifer replied, smiling. "So, what do you say? Want to give it a try?"

"You want to date me?" The woman asked.

"What else can I want with such a pretty lady in my presence. I want you to be mine and mine alone."

Hearing the words of Lucifer, the woman couldn't believe how easy it was. She didn't even need to try anything.

' Who could have expected that this guy was so weak. No wonder he was trying to overcompensate with her unruly attitude before. Such an idiot. But it's cute too. I want to play with him more.'

"Why should I listen to you? What if you're just playing with my heart?" The woman asked. "Can you prove that you truly love me?'

"How shall I prove?" Lucifer asked.

"Simple. You must come to my hometown with me. If you come there, I shall agree to be with you and marry you."

"Only that? Sure. Anything for you." Lucifer smiled. "So, where are you from?"

"We are from Minelo."

"Isn't that in the continent of Triton?"

"That's right. That's where my home is. So, will you come?"

"Sure, but first, you must do something for me as well. I want you to be all mine. I don't want Zale to lust after you. Before I commit to you entirely, I want to make sure Zale won't be in any misunderstanding. I don't want him to think I betrayed him."

"Only that?" The woman laughed. "Don't worry. I know how to handle the situation. I'll just tell him that I only talked to him because I wanted to know more about you from him because I like you. That should make things clear."

"That would be nice. But I have a better idea." Lucifer smirked.

"What idea?"

" An idea which helps him be a bit warier of vixens like you," Lucifer smiled. "You know, you are just like I thought. No difference at all."

"W-what?"

"Instead of being with someone like you, I would much rather prefer being dead. Still, I wanted to make sure that you were exactly as shallow as I thought. This would be more fun now."

"Y-you are scaring me now." The woman stood up, feeling that something was wrong.

"Scaring you? But I haven't even started," Lucifer replied lazily. "I will start scaring you now."

Lucifer clapped his hand once, calling forth his winds. The winds picked up Joan and his daughter and carried them off the ship, right above the ocean.

"I didn't see that ending," Jestor muttered, staring blankly at Lucifer.

Lucifer didn't reply. He just stood up and flew off the ship to float before the woman and her father.

"W-what are you doing to your future father-in-law? Did my daughter say something to you?"

"What I'm doing to my future father-in-law hasn't even started yet. It'll start when I drown you into this sea slowly for scheming against my father!" Lucifer said, flashing a devilish grin.

"W-what father? We didn't do anything to your father!" Joan exclaimed.

Lucifer didn't reply. He started lowering the father and daughter pair closer to the water.

"I hope you know how to swim for five days straight.. Because the next island should be five days away from here."
