Chapter 379 - 379: At Death's Door

"How does it sound? The Warlock Council sent a threat that they don't want a Variant government, and they'll take action. Scared by that threat, all Uprising members ran away, leaving Lucifer behind? You think he'll believe it's?" Salazar asked, smiling.

"I stand by my statement. You don't know anything. You're an idiot, and you'll regret it!" Kellian replied before taking another step back.

As he was already standing at the edge, taking this step made him fall off the building.

...

Hearing that Salazar wasn't there to fight, Lucifer was slightly relaxed.

Unfortunately, soon he heard some bad news. Vega had informed him just now that there was a problem. Salazar had started attacking. He had killed four Warlocks already, and now he was after Kellian.

"I'm close to the city already. I'll soon be there. Send more of our Warlocks to take him down!" Lucifer commanded Vega before disconnecting the call.

He soon stood up, walking towards the doors of the helicopter.

He opened the door.

"What are you doing?" Cassius asked, approaching Lucifer.

"I'm leaving. We're near the city, and I can fly faster than this helicopter. I should be able to get there in time," Lucifer answered.

"Is Kellian this important to you? Why are you so eager?" Cassius asked.

"It's not just about Kellian. I'll tell you later," Lucifer vaguely replied before he jumped outside.

...

Kellian landed on the road in front of their building, observing the roof. Salazar also jumped behind him.

"You can't run, Kellian," Salazar declared, landing in front of Kellian. "You're all alone now."

"Who said I'm alone?" Kellian asked, smiling.

"Hmm?" Salazar felt something odd. He looked up, noticing tens of Warlocks standing on the roof where he jumped from.

"You're not fighting just me. You're fighting all of Uprising. Even though time didn't have to end like that, you made it all happen. You can slow things in your surroundings, and you can dodge attacks, but how many attacks can you dodge?" Kellian asked, distracting Salazar.

In the meantime, two shadows came out of the ground behind him, attacking Salazar.

"That's the problem with you. You really forget that I'm a Sorcerer. I don't have just one ability," Salazar lazily answered. The shadows attacked him.

The shadow swords moved slowly in the Domain of Salazar, but they didn't make any noise. And it didn't seem like Salazar had noticed them. Soon, the Swords sliced him in half.

Salazar's figure flickered as the sword cut him before disappearing.

"Illusion?" Kellian exclaimed. "Then the real you should be..."

Kellian raised his head, looking towards the roof to find Salazar still there. He was now attacking the Warlocks that were sent by Vega for backup.

"Not actually an illusion," A voice fell in Kellian's ears as a knife was thrust towards his chest.

Kellian again turned into a shadow, appearing five meters away.

"There are two of you? It's not just an illusion, is it? Illusion Clones that can use your abilities?" he asked.

"Good guess, but no points for guessing," Salazar said, smiling. "Also, it's not actually correct."

Salazar once again disappeared, appearing in front of Kellian, who once again found himself inside Salazar's domain.

Frustrated, Kellian once again disappeared, appearing five meters away, but Salazar was already waiting for him there. For some strange reason, there wasn't just one Salazar. There were fifty Salazars, who were all covering the road.

Kellian found himself overwhelmed at the sight of so many Salazar. He didn't know what was happening. Just what was the power of Salazar?

He kept turning into shadows and dodging, but no matter where he appeared, Salazar was already standing there.

...

Kellian stood frozen in his place, expressionless. There was only one Salazar around him, and even that guy was standing in front of him. There wasn't any other Salazar.

Moreover, Kellian hadn't actually jumped off the building. He was still standing on the edge of the terrace. Everything he had seen from the moment he jumped was happening in his head.

The four Warlocks were indeed dead, but that was all. No backup had come to the roof to protect Kellian.

Vega had informed all the Warlocks in the base to go up and help Kellian, but none of them were able to reach Kellian. Salazar had spread out his domain in the entire building. Five meters was not the limit of his domain. It was what he usually used.

When it came to the crux of it, he was able to increase the range of his domain by multiple times.

The entire building was under the effect of his domain now. Even though all the Warlocks were trying to get to the roof, they were all stuck in extremely slow times. Each step of theirs was taking tens of seconds.

Salazar Lucia casually walked towards Kellian with the blood-covered golden knife in his hand.

Soon, Salazar was standing at an arm's reach of Kellian.

"This is the end of Uprising and Lucifer's affiliation to you all. Goodbye, Kellian."

...

"What is happening? Why the heck is Kellian standing there like a statue?" Sitting in front of his screen, Vega was getting concerned.

Kellian was so close to death, and he wasn't even fighting back.

"What's more strange is the condition of others. Why are they moving so slowly?" Drak chimed in. "At this speed, by the time they get to the roof, second boss will be long dead!'

"It's all because of the abilities of Salazar. He hadn't shown his abilities so openly before, but I think I have a general idea now. He can somehow affect the speed of others," Vega replied.

"Something like slowing them down. It should be a limited range ability, but for it to cover the entire building, the range is really high," he continued.

"This guy is really scary. What kind of power is it? That's too overpowered," Drak commented.

"It's certainly a powerful ability. He's just like Raia and Varant. They were also more dangerous when a person got close to them. This guy is even more dangerous since his ability range is much longer," Vega said, sighing. "I'm concerned about his other abilities. Why isn't Kellian fighting back? Something strange is going on."

"You should inform the young boss about this. Tell him to stay away from this guy if he doesn't want to be at a disadvantage," Drak suggested.

Hearing his suggestion, Vega agreed. He called Lucifer to inform him.

...

"Goodbye, Kellian!" Salazar said, slashing with his knife.

"Huh?" he abruptly stood, sensing danger. He quickly jumped back at the right moment, dodging a black lightning bolt that fell where he was standing before.

He looked up, noticing Lucifer in the sky, which had started getting clouded.
