Chapter 627 - 627: We're Here For You
The doors of the shop opened and the middle aged man stepped out again. He wasn't alone this time. There was a Warlock Council member who was walking behind him.
The Warlock Council member was wearing the coat given by the Warlock Council. In fact, it was almost identical with the coats that were given to Arthur and Milena. The only difference was that there was a different identity inside the coats and there was no mic in his coat.
Unfortunately, Milena and Arthur weren't wearing their uniform. No one could recognise them as Warlock Council members.
"They're the ones! Look, they're trying to run away!" The middle aged man asked the Warlock Council member. "Sir Qin, do something!"
"Stop!" The Warlock known as Qin took a step forward and called out.
"Hmm?" Lucifer turned around.
He noticed a Warlock Council member. "Do you need something?"
"Did you kill the son of Minister Lane?" Qin asked.
"Minister Lane?" Lucifer asked. "You mean that thing there? Yeah."
Almost everyone inside the Warlock Council was informed about Lucifer i.e most who were inside the Warlock Council. They had even seen the image of Lucifer.
But the man at the moment hadn't approached the Warlock Council since then. He had heard about a new member but he hadn't seen him. Moreover, he didn't find the badge on Lucifer or the identification. He was sure that Lucifer couldn't be that guy.
However there was one person who knew what was happening. It was the Dark Haired spy who was keeping an eye on Lucifer. He couldn't believe that an idiot was calling out Lucifer who was one of the members of the Head Council.
He wanted to step out and inform Qin about this, but it could blow up his cover. And he couldn't contact him directly either.
All he could do was inform this to the Warlock Council who could either contact the man or do something else.
He contacted the administrator who he was in contact with. Just as he finished speaking, the Warlock Council started contacting Qin.
Despite trying again and again, they couldn't contact him. Since Qin was in such a hurry to come out after hearing about murders, he had left the contacting device inside.
"So you accept you did all these. You killed these three people," Qin commented.
"Yep. I sure did. Do you have a problem with it? Raise the issue with your higher ups. I'm not in the mood at the moment."
Lucifer turned away, not focusing on the man at all.
"I'm warning you! Stop if you don't want to be dead! You're under arrest. You can't go anywhere!" Qin commanded Lucifer.
"Whatever suits you," Lucifer replied without even looking back. He didn't care about the man at all. He was thinking about taking out all of them. Since he was so confident, a small Warlock couldn't intimidate him.
"That's it! You forced me to do it!" Qin started running towards Lucifer to attack.
The dark haired spy couldn't control himself anymore after seeing the situation deteriorate so much. He was about to come out of hiding but he stopped as he noticed another movement.
Tens of Warlock Council members came flying from all directions and landed between Lucifer and Qin.
Finally Lucifer was intrigued. More people were here to attack him?
"Well then, they can't blame me for what I'm about to do." He cracked his knuckles as he turned around.
At the same time, Qin was also pleased that more guards were here.
"It's good that you're here! We need to arrest the man! He killed the son of a Minister in the middle of the road!" Qin informed the other guards, however, something was odd.
He noticed the guards looking towards him. The guards weren't looking towards Lucifer. They were looking towards him instead.
"We aren't here for him. We're here for you. Stand down!" One of the guards said, frowning. "Do you even know what you were just about to do?"
"What?" Qin asked, confused.
"The people you were about to attack. They are the new Warlock Council members. In fact, one of them is now a member of the Head Council of leaders! Now you understand?" The guards asked.
"No matter what they did. You can't attack them. If you had attacked them, we would have had no choice but to execute you. It's the law. Only the Head Council can decide what to do with the Head Council member if they do something! You have no authority! So stand down!" The other guards said.
"Also, where is your communication device? The Head Office was trying to contact you for so long! Get that device and report to the Head Office!"
"I-" Qin didn't have any answer. He had actually made a mistake by thinking about attacking the man but at least he could justify himself by saying that Lucifer wasn't wearing any identification.
Also, he hadn't actually attacked so far. So he wasn't going to get any strict actions. He knew that at best, he was going to get some scolding since he was stopped at the right time before he could take it too far.
"I'll report to the head office," he responded as he turned around.
On his way back, he didn't forget to glare at the Minister who brought him into this mess.
The Minister wasn't having a good time either. His son was killed brutally and now he came to know that the Warlock Council Head was the culprit. He knew he couldn't do anything against him.
He was only a human minister and the man who killed his son was at the peak of the Warlock hierarchy. He was above the law.
All the minister could do was go back inside the shop and hope that Lucifer wasn't going to come to kill him. As for the body of his son, he could handle that later. He walked back inside the shop.
It wasn't just them who were surprised. Lucifer wasn't immune to it either. He had thought that these people were here to attack him and that he had to move the plan forward. But that wasn't the case.
The guards turned to Lucifer after the others left. "Are you alright?"
"I am fine," Lucifer lazily stated before he started leaving. He didn't bother staying here for longer.
As he was walking towards the Warlock Council headquarters where he had an entire floor to himself.
On the way back, Lucifer noticed the two kids hiding in the back of the alley. As soon as their eyes met his eyes, they started shivering. He didn't blame the kids either.
If he was his old self who was inside the facility and he had seen such things in action, he might have been scared as well.
