Chapter 418 - 418: Is It Done?

Uheim was one of the three nations that existed on the continent of Darkness near the Western Edge. It wasn't close to the sea like the Southern Nation, but it was a popular tourist destination.

It was the only nation in the Continent of Darkness that allowed tourists to come there. In fact, a significant source of their income was from tourism which made them trade with other nations as well.

It wasn't a big nation, but it was an important nation that was said to be neutral to the other forces. Unlike the other countries, they weren't under the influence of the Divine Empire, at least not openly.

To express their neutral side, they even allowed the Warlock Council to open a branch on their land, which was allowed to work here, as long as it followed the rules of the land.

Not only the Warlock Council, but embassies of other nations also existed inside the nation of Uheim. It was a really popular nation, after all, and the only link for the other countries to the Continent of Darkness.

Moreover, the surroundings of Uheim were rich in resources which helped their bargaining power as well.

Uheim was like a modern nation on a Continent that followed old times, but they were left as they are. The Divine Empire mostly ignored them as long as they kept sending resources to the Divine Empire to show their goodwill.

The capital city of Uheim was also known to be slightly different. It didn't have much police force.

For some strange reason, despite all that, no crimes were committed here since the punishment for a crime was really severe.

According to the laws here, if a person was found to have committed a big crime, he was to be executed. It was an extremely hard punishment that was given for small crimes like theft.

The fear of execution had scared the civilians, keeping them away from the path of crime. Unfortunately, none of them knew that a crime was going to take place just now, and no one was even going to know about it if everything went right.

A helicopter was close to being stolen, that too from the Warlock Council.

Pushing the door open, Caen stepped inside the Warlock Council branch, followed by Salazar and Lucifer.

As soon as the three of them entered, they were captured in the camera that was everywhere inside the branch.

Catching the sight of people entering, a device started beeping.

"Hmm?" A middle-aged man was giving maintenance to the Warlock Council helicopter when he heard the beeping of his device.

"Guests are here? Who could it be? No one comes here?" Confused, he brought his device out of his pocket to see the footage.

"Hmm? Master Andreas?" His eyes opened wider as he saw the winged man.

"Why is he back so fast? Did he come back to give it another try? I'm amazed the Warlock Council hasn't given up despite so many failures in convincing the Divine Empire."

Shaking his head, he started leaving that place. Taking the shortest route, he reached the main hall to greet guests.

Standing in the main hall, everyone looked around, wondering where the manager of this branch was. They had expected him to be present to greet them, but there was no one here.

Suddenly, a door opened before them, and a man stepped out of the door.

The middle-aged man supported a long coat which was as long as his long hairs that came down to his ankles. His long hair was tied to a ponytail.

He was the manager of the branch known as Shuri.

"Welcome Back, Master Andreas. I didn't expect you to be back so fast. Are you here to meet Queen Milena again?"

Caen nodded his head. "Yes. Prepare the chopper."

"Ah, I apologize, sir. But I wasn't expecting anyone from the main branch to come here, especially you. That's why I had started giving maintenance to the helicopter. It's not prepared to fly at the moment. It'll take a few hours at the least," Shuri explained.

"Alright. Prepare it fast," Caen replied, keeping his words short. He didn't want to talk too much and make the man suspicious.

"Right away, Sir," Shuri said before shifting his attention to Lucifer and Salazar behind him. "These two behind you? Are they new to the Council? I haven't seen them before?"

"They aren't new. But yeah, it's their first time coming here," Caen explained. "Now, can you get to work? I can't afford to be late."

"Ah, yes sir." Shuri didn't talk much and hastily left. Caen and the others also followed him this time.

Through the same shortcut, they reached the place where various equipment of the Warlock Council was kept.

The three of them were already pretty pleased that this man wasn't suspicious of them at all. He didn't even contact the main branch to talk about their sudden arrival.

The three of them could relax and watch Shuri work. Everything was on schedule.

While the man got to work on the helicopter, Lucifer observed the other equipment that was in this place.

There wasn't much actually. There were two helicopters, a few drones and some weapons, and armored cars. It was clear that the Warlock Council didn't place much trust in weapons. Only the bare minimum was kept here.

There was certainly something that made Lucifer confused. There were two helicopters here. One needed maintenance, which was why they were delayed. But what about the second one? Why weren't they using it?

Since he was supposed to be a new Warlock here, he believed he could ask such questions. On the other hand, if these questions were asked by Caen, then it would be suspicious.

He stepped forward, taking the lead.

"Why don't we just use the second helicopter?" He asked Shuri.

"Second helicopter? Did Master Andreas not tell you about that? That is an emergency helicopter. It can only be used when the first helicopter is destroyed or if it fails to work. Under any other situation, we can't use it," Shuri explained, not minding the question.

Caen and Salazar sat on the sofas that were placed in the back as they started waiting. It was only Lucifer who was moving here and there, observing the items that were here.

Soon, he also went back to the couch and sat in silence for the helicopter to heal.

...

Three hours later, Shuri finally stepped out. He picked a white towel that was lying nearby and wiped the sweat.

"Is it done?" Caen asked Shuri.
