Chapter 338 - 338: Death Of Kellian
He already knew it was a time consuming process. The only reason these guys had something like this prepared for him was because they knew he was coming. It was all because of Predictor.
"That reminds me, did you call Predictor here?" he asked Kellian. "I want to talk to him as well."
"Actually... He can't come. He never leaves the base. Even when Raia told him to go out, he didn't," Kellian explained, sighing. "He is a bit different from the others."
"Why doesn't he ever leave?" Lucifer asked, walking towards the security room to meet Vega again regarding something important.
"Who knows. He just says that he'll die the moment he leaves the Uprising Base. We just let him do as he wants. In any case, he's not even the slightest bit useful in a battle."
"So I have to go to him if I want to meet him?" Lucifer inquired.
"Yeah. If you want to meet him, that seems to be the only way. Because he is never coming out, I think."
"Get him on call for me. I want to talk to him right now." Lucifer said, understanding that Predictor wasn't going to come.
If he didn't listen to Raia, there was no chance he was going to listen to him.
Kellian directly called Predictor before giving the phone to Lucifer.
"Hello?" A faint voice fell in Lucifer's ears as soon as he placed the phone near his ears.
" Predictor?" Lucifer asked, frowning.
"Yeah. You don't sound like Kellian though. Who are you?" Predictor asked.
"Lucifer..." Lucifer replied, smiling.
"It's you... Greetings to the new leader," Predictor responded respectfully. "Did you need something from me?"
"I just wanted to ask something. Can you tell me about the dreams that you saw in the last eight years? All the dreams, including me," Lucifer told Predictor.
At first, he didn't realize that Predictor could be such a dark horse.
It was only later that Lucifer realized that with his powers, there was a good chance that Predictor saw Lucifer killing Raia in the future.
Fortunately, he soon realized that the chances of that happening were low. If Predictor had seen that, he would certainly have told Raia about it. Lucifer's plan would have failed.
Since it went so smoothly, it seemed like Predictor didn't see it coming. But that's also why Predictor was such an important person.
One dream of his could change the whole game even if it had a small chance of coming true.
At the moment, Lucifer wanted to know about the dreams of Predictor, especially dreams about himself or his future.
"I've only seen one dream about you in the last eight years. And it was about your meeting with Veracity. Other than that, I haven't seen any dream which could have included you," Predictor straight away replied.
"But I did see one only today, which I believe could be of help to you."
"What did you see?" Lucifer asked.
"I saw death..." Predictor replied.
"Whose death?" Lucifer inquired, wondering whose death he saw. It couldn't be his death, after all.
"I saw the death of Kellian. I already told him about it though. I don't know if he told you or not. But there's a chance that he'll die in this raid," Predictor heavily said.
"How does that happen?" Lucifer inquired, stunned.
He believed he could change this outcome if he knew how Kellian died.
"I only saw a small scene play in my head before waking up. But Kellian was lying dead on the ground, and a person stood in front of him," Predictor explained.
"Do you recognize that man? Who was it?"
"I recognize him..."
"Tell me who he is. Who will do it?! I'll make sure it never happens!"
"The one who will kill Kellian will be... Warlock King Salazar Lucia," Predictor explained, sighing.
"But just know, the chance of my dream coming true is very small. I fail to distinguish between real dreams and prediction dreams. So there's a good chance that it doesn't happen. Still, you all should stay alert in this mission. That's the only piece of advice I can give you," he further said.
"Thanks for the information. I'll keep that in mind. Inform me if you see any other dreams. You'll get my number soon," Lucifer let out before he disconnected the call and returned the phone to Kellian.
"Kellian?" After a few minutes, he asked.
"Yes?"
"May I ask why you hid such an important piece of information from me? The dream of Predictor... Why didn't you tell me about it?" Lucifer asked, without even looking at Kellian.
"Because that dream of his is a lie. It's not coming true. My life isn't in danger, and neither is our mission," Kellian answered.
"And how are you so sure?" Lucifer asked in response. "You do know; we can't take a risk with it, don't you?"
"After he told me about the dream, I asked Vega's help to find where Warlock King Salazar is," Kellian started explaining.
" He is in Legion City at the moment. There's no way he can come to the Capital City. So this dream should be a casual dream," he further said. "Since this was just a common dream with no chance of becoming a reality, I didn't tell you."
"Are you sure he is in Legion City at the moment?" Lucifer asked, frowning.
If this was true, then Kellian was right. Salazar Lucia couldn't get to the Capital in time for the raid. In fact, even if he took a helicopter, it was going to take a few days in the least.
In any case, why would Salazar even come there in such a hurry? The information about Capital City being attacked wasn't going to leave the city since Drak was going to block all communication.
"That's right. It's confirmed; he is living in a hotel in Legion City at the moment," Kellian agreed. " There's no reason to take this particular dream seriously."
Lucifer agreed with this statement. If Kellian was telling the truth, then there was no risk. The chance of them being attacked by Warlock King Salazar was close to none, at least in the near future.
As long as they finished taking over the Capital and killing Zeiss before Salazar involved himself, it was going to work out.
Initially, when Lucifer heard that Warlock King Salazar was going to involve himself, he was slightly concerned that the battle was going to be harder than he expected, but now everything was fine.
Immersed in the conversation, Lucifer didn't even realize when they reached the Security Chamber of APF.
