Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 58 - 58: Not A Kid



Five people entered the showroom. There was a kind of arrogance on their faces that made them seem like some kind of royalty.

Their long robes had a red eagle insignia on the chest. The end of their robe could be seen moving with the wind as they walked.

The person in the lead was a woman that seemed like she was in her early forties.

"Vice Guild Leader, Madam Elisi," Sergeant Trafford greeted the woman in the lead with great respect as he recognized her to be the Vice Guild Leader of the Red Eagles Guild, Elisi Mikai.

Elisi ignored the captain's words as she walked over to Fray, who was lying on the ground, unmoving. She touched his wrist and placed her finger near his nose to check something before nodding her head.

"He is extremely injured and weak, but he is still alive. Take him to the guild hospital for treatment," she calmly said as she gazed back at once of her men.

A man stepped forward, acknowledging her commands as he picked up Fray and left the showroom.

"From what I heard through witnesses, Master Fray fought with great bravery to protect the citizens. But for a Variant who was able to harm him, he seems like a threat to the city," the Sergeant told Elisi.

"Yeah, The city is in danger. Lock the city down," Elisi told the Sergeant. "Tell every citizen to hide in their houses."

She brought her phone out and dialled a number.

"It seems there's a ten-year-old Variant who has lost control of his power or someone from the Uprising sent to cause chaos in our city," she told someone over the phone.

Without stopping, she continued, "Send Mia and her team to one of the exits of the city and send Han to the other exit. Tell all of our men to search the whole city and be careful. I need an update whenever they find the culprit."

"Be fast and find him! I'll have your head on a plate if we can't find the killer!"

She disconnected the call.

...

A man from the Red Eagles walked closer to Elisi. He was another member of the team called Strato.

"Should we inform APF as well?" Strato asked Elisi.

"No. APF is filled with a bunch of righteous hacks. If they come, they will arrest the killer but won't kill him since it is a young kid who probably just Awakened and didn't know about his powers."

Sergeant Trafford looked at Elisi in shock. Did her words mean that she didn't want him captured alive?

" I want the person to die for what he did instead. It doesn't matter why he did what he did! That kid would die for injuring my son Fray even if he surrendered to us," Elisi proclaimed.

Strato nodded his head in agreement.

....

Lucifer was entirely uncaring about the commotion he had caused as he walked through the streets of the city, looking at various stalls and shops along the way.

He wasn't actually interested in anything. He was only intrigued by the variety of things that the world had. There were all kinds of items being sold, from food to commercial toys to clothes.

Unfortunately, he didn't care for anything.

He kept walking, trying to leave the city, when he suddenly stopped.

It was less like he stopped and more like his feet stopped moving on their own as he noticed a small stall in the distance.

The small place had tons of action figures placed there. They were the figures of various heroes of history.

There were many companies that made action figures of famous Hunters and Variants, and this place was selling them. But Lucifer didn't care for most figures. What he cared for was one unique one that was there.

He had noticed a figure here that seemed like the figure of his father, Zale Azarel. When he was young, he had often seen his father on TV, saving people. The Action Figure was wearing the same clothes, and it had the same color of hair.

It seemed like a replica of his father in figure form.

Seeing the figure made Lucifer's heartbeat slow down as a lot of memories rushed his head.

He didn't care about anything else. All he knew was that he wanted it.

He started walking towards the stall.

Just behind him was a cop that had seen Lucifer.

He matched the description of the young boy that they were looking for. He also noticed a few blood drops on Lucifer's gloves. It was evident that Lucifer was the boy they were looking for.

He instantly called Sergeant Trafford to inform him and to get further commands.

****

Elisi and the Sergeant were still inside the Showroom, looking at the CCTV footage of the street of the last twenty minutes.

They saw the boy and the clothes he was wearing. They also saw the face of Lucifer in the footage as he was walking on the street.

The Sergeant was about to send the image to everyone when he got a call.

He picked up the phone and placed it near his ears.

"Hello?"

"Are you serious? What is he wearing?"

"That's right. That's the guy! Don't do anything. We'll be right there," he exclaimed as his eyes lit up since the description matched. He disconnected the call.

He looked back at Elisi that was looking around the shop.

"I think we got him! That kid is on the 17th Street," Sergeant Trafford told Elisi.

Elisi clenched her fist as a killer smile formed on her face. "That's better."

" Let's go," She let out as she turned back, her robe waving behind her with the sudden turn, making her look even more majestic.

She stepped out and got in her car that was parked outside the Showroom, and raced towards the 17th Street. The others also followed after her car, including the cops.

...

It didn't take Elisi long before she reached the 17th Street and stepped out of the car.

She soon saw the cop on the street and looked in the direction he was looking at. She saw the boy in a red jacket standing there. His clothes and looks matched the person they saw in the footage. She was sure that he was the murderer—a grin formed on her red lips.

The others also stepped out of the car and stood behind her.

"How should we handle it, Madam? Should we go arrest him?" Sergeant Trafford asked Elisi since she was more informed when it came to awakened humans. "I know you don't want arrest, but he's still a kid. APF would be angry that we killed him."

"There's no need to arrest him. He's not a kid but a beast," Elisi said as she raised her hand. She seemed like she couldn't care any less about what Seargent Trafford said. "And I'll treat him how a beast should be treated."

Sergeant Trafford understood her meaning. But she was the Vice Guild Leader of the Red Eagles Guild. She was like the queen here. He could do nothing but to go along with it.

He understood that she wanted to execute him. He didn't try to stop her. He was just glad that she wasn't using her powers to kill the boy as that might harm other innocent people as well.
