Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 817: Forced



Chapter 817: Forced

"Yes Lyon? What do you need?" A voice came from the other end.

"I need some help!"

"What help?"

"I'm investigating the SOS of Joana. He is missing. And I think that Lucifer has hurt him. I need permission to access his Vehicle Logs to know if he was there at the time of the crime or not?"

"Do you really doubt him? Why would he kill Joana? Aren't those two close?" The gravelly voice asked. "You know he's close to the queen. If I help you do this, and he turned out to be innocent, both of us could be in trouble."

"Please give me access! I will prove it! If I'm wrong, I'll accept punishment. Just trust my hunch this one! If Lucifer hurts Joana, this needs to come to light."

"Moreover, if he's proven guilty, even Her Majesty would have to declare a death sentence for him. She won't misuse her authority to save Lucifer. And don't you also like Her Majesty? If Lucifer is out of the picture, you can have a chance again to pursue her. Aren't I right?"

"You! Stop talking nonsense if you don't want to die. Anyway, just because it's a matter of the life and death of a member of ours, I'll play along. I'll give you the permission. You have a one time authority to access the logs of Lucifer."

"Great! Thank you, sir! That should be enough!" Lyon disconnected the call.

He tried to access it once again. This time, he didn't face any error, and he was able to access Lucifer's logs directly.

"Bingo! He was there at the time of SOS! Why would he hide it? Did he do it?"

"That makes perfect sense! Joana knows him! There's no way Joana wouldn't let him inside the house. Joana wouldn't even be alert before him. This wound gives Lucifer an undue advantage over Joana!"

"That's where the building was intact! The markings on the wall... He probably made them using his winds as well. That really makes sense! It was Lucifer behind it!"

"I need to inform everyone! We can't let Lucifer Azarel escape! But if I send the command to others, Lucifer will hear it too. I'll need to send them individually."

Lyon sent everyone a message, alerting them about Lucifer and that he was to be arrested.

Lia was the last person to get a message.

"Are you sure? You know what you're saying?" she asked, frowning.

They had already interrogated everyone and were just about to separate.

Lia glanced at Lucifer subconsciously. "Alright. Yeah, we're still here. We just finished. Okay, I got it."

"Did something happen?" Lucifer asked Lia.

Lia nodded her head. "Apparently Lyon didn't find anything in the central mainframe either. He was asking if we're here. He's coming here to decide the next plan of action."

"Is that so?" Lucifer felt something was odd. Even though Lia was acting good, he could feel some things. Something wasn't right. Lyon wanted to investigate separately, then why was he coming back?

"It's good that he's coming back. He can accompany you. I'll be leaving. I want to check something."

"What's the hurry?" Watching Lucifer leave, Lia stood in his path.

"May I ask why you're trying to stop me? Can't I investigate separately like Lyon did?"

"It's not that," Lia replied. "It's just that he's coming, and I told him we're all here. If you leave, it'll look wrong. Moreover, we can work better together. Lyon also learned that. So stay."

"I told you, I want to go alone this time. I already wasted enough time in the interrogation. It was a waste of time. I'll go on my own this time. See you later."

Waving his hand, Lucifer continued walking towards the car, but he still remained alert as he had a feeling that he might've been attacked from the back.

"Alright, enough with the act. You know we know, don't you?" Lia asked, dropping the act. "Stop right there if you don't want me to get heavy-handed with you."

"What do you mean? I don't understand anything?" Lucifer turned around, stopping.

As he expected, they knew about him. He didn't know how they found out, but he had a feeling that it was discovered by Lyon. Either he talked to Maya, or he found something in the footage of the bigger area. In any case, it wasn't good news for him.

"We know you did it."

"I did what?" Lucifer asked. He heard the sound of more vehicles arriving. There was a siren going on in all the vehicles. The people in the surrounding started clearing the area.

All the vehicles surrounded Lucifer from all sides. A beam of light came out from all the vehicles that joined together on top. The beam started spreading out, forming a dome-shaped barrier around Lucifer.

Lucifer glanced at his surroundings. "I don't know what misunderstanding is there, but you should know that the consequences of what you're doing won't be good for anyone."

"Lucifer, I honestly didn't expect this from you. After a long time, you finally came out of the castle, and that too to hurt Joana? Tell me what you did with him? Is he still alive?" Lia asked.

Lyon also stepped out of his car. "Good work. We got him."

More and more star alliance captains stepped out of their cars, surrounding Lucifer.

"Surrender, Lucifer. No matter what you did, you're still one of us. We'll make sure you don't get a stricter sentence. Tell us where Joana is, and we can help you."

Lucifer let out a deep breath, rubbing the back of his neck. "Why is it that trouble always finds me. I always end up in situations like these. This time, it's not even my fault."

"Stop talking to yourself. Tell me, where's Joana? What did you do to him?"

"I don't know." Lucifer stuck with his statement. He started taking his gloves off without anyone noticing. "I'm also in the dark, just like you."

He kept the gloves in his pockets.

"You won't answer like that. Don't worry. We'll get all the answers in the prison. We have our ways!" Lyon exclaimed. "Place your hands on the ground. Any attack on us would be considered a crime worth death!"

Lucifer glanced at fifteen one-star captains that were surrounding him. He knew he was in a mess like never before. He couldn't even teleport inside this dome.

"I'll count to three! If you don't get down on the ground, we'll be forced to attack! We won't care who you are!" Lyon warned again.
