Chapter 102 - 102: Plan To Escape
Vey attacked using the illusory knife which had stabbed the chest of Lucifer; however, it disappeared instantly, leaving the wound in his chest.
Lucifer gazed down and saw the blood coming out of his chest while the knife disappeared. There was a deep wound in his chest, which started slowly healing.
Even though the wound had started to heal, before the damage could completely heal, another illusory knife came flying and stabbed right where the previous injury was, again opening it.
Just as the knife disappeared, another knife came flying, hitting the same place. The wound kept getting deeper and deeper as more and more knives kept hitting. Soon, the knives had managed to create a see-through hole in his chest.
Lucifer was not even moving as he kept watching the knives being hurled at him. More attacks of the knives were simultaneously aimed at his head and heart, but he was using his hand to stop the attacks. The knives coming for his head kept hitting his right hand.
Lucifer was simply watching, not doing anything to Vey. Vey might have been a dangerous enemy for the others, but to Lucifer, he was the weakest since his attacks were no more than the attacks of mortals that just used weapons.
His healing was more than capable of helping him keep up. In the meanwhile, Lucifer was more focused on killing others.
Vey was so embarrassed to see that he was being ignored. He was called the Delta Squad's assassin, who was the third strongest in the Squad, but he was being ignored like he was a kid.
As for his attacks, even though they were harming Lucifer, they weren't proving anything significant in the grand scheme of things since Lucifer continued killing his teammates while taking his attacks head-on.
Lucifer waved his hand, shooting out a lightning bolt which was aimed at another Variant of the Delta Squad.
The Variant was able to make rocks out of thin air to attack his enemies, but the rocks were too weak to hurt Lucifer as he was able to break them in one punch.
His ability was also limited, and he could only create big rocks that took a long time to create; thus, he wasn't much threat. As the lightning bolt hit him, the man was dead as well.
With that, Lucifer had killed ten Delta Squad members until there were only four people left.
The ones who had survived were Flourance, Vey, and two more people called Gret and Oayne.
Flourance had the spatial displacement ability, whereas Vey had the ability to use illusory knives. Gret and Payne also had good powers, but the two of them were short-range fighters, so the only one who could attack Lucifer at this time was Vey.
Lucifer had already dealt with most of the long-range attackers while ignoring Vey.
Now that everyone was dealt with, that only left Vey, who was a concern.
Vey was still attacking, but he had given up by now as well. It was as if he was throwing his attacks at a wall that wasn't hurt and that didn't show any emotions. Now that his friends were dead, he knew that the next number was his.
Crash!
Boom!
The helicopter soon crashed on the ground and blew up, created a giant explosion that momentarily attracted everyone's attention.
Lucifer knew that there was only one Long Range Variant left, and that was Vey, but he still ignored him as he shifted his focus at Flourance.
From what he understood, Flourance was the leader of the team that had captured him. Even though Flourance couldn't attack Long Range, it was still good to have him die first when he was in the air, but Lucifer didn't attack normally.
After fighting for so long, he had realized Flourance's ability which helped him escape the instant attacks.
"You can escape attacks, but the fall isn't the same," Lucifer muttered as he gazed at Flourance with an expressionless face.
He raised his left hand again. Electricity flickered around his arm, getting stronger.
Flourance saw Lucifer's aim, and he knew what was going to happen. He looked down, seeing how bad the fall would be if he was attacked now.
The fall didn't seem bad, but he was sure that there was a good chance that his legs would break at fall.
He couldn't let Lucifer attack, but he couldn't do anything else either. Vey was already attacking effortlessly. As for Gret and Oayne, they were useless too since they were Warrior Class Variants who didn't have the ability to attack Long Range.
Flourance gazed at Lucifer as a smile appeared on his face. He had come up with a plan.
'I guess I can only use his nature to my advantage. He is like a wild beast. As long as I mock him, he will continue attacking me and won't attack the Parachute. I need to keep him engaged until I land,' he thought.
"Hahaha!"
Flourance started laughing out loud, attracting the curiosity of Lucifer.
"I must say, you are very strong. Just like how that bastard father of yours was! He was also like you, crushing everyone."
"We thought he was a lion, but he turned out to be a rabbit when he faced a true threat. Hahaha, that bastard couldn't even clear one dungeon without dying. Hahaha, so much for the so-called strongest warlock. Only a fake title!"
"That bastard couldn't even save his wife. That bitch died with him! It's funny. They both deserved it for calling themselves strongest without having any strength! Hahaha!"
Flourance continued mocking the parents of Lucifer to enrage him since he knew it was needed.
He was sure if he didn't make Lucifer stop thinking, his Parachute was going to be targeted. He only needed to delay for a little longer until they landed.
Flourance mocked Lucifer like crazy while the other team members watched him in amazement. They didn't know that such a decent man like Flourance could talk like that. Did he really go crazy in fear, or was it something else? They thought.
