Chapter 731 - 731
As soon as Kellian entered the building with the two guests from Atlantis, a loud explosion took place inside the mansion.
One after another, multiple explosions took place, destroying the entire mansion from the root.
Whatever was left of the mansion came crashing down in the explosion.
There was no movement for a long time.
A small door opened in the Ground at some distance from the destroyed Mansion.
A group of men stepped out of the opening in the ground and observed the rubble before them.
"You were right. They certainly came for you, it seems."
"I don't think it's something to be surprised about. If I were in their place, I would've done the same. For them, we're the enemies that survived their onslaught. We're the biggest threat for them. Of course, they'll come after us."
There stood seven men. All remnants of the Warlock Council leaders had gathered at this city after receiving the invitation from Jian. Here they tried to plan a way to get back inside the Zeston while setting up an ambush here, waiting for the enemies.
"The battle isn't over yet," Jian said, sighing. "I don't think the person who led the charge against the Warlock Council would've personally come here. He probably sent his men. Their main forces would still be in Zeston."
"This is just a small victory, I agree. But this opens up a door for a lot more. Now we can send one of us, disguised as them. We would have a way in."
Jian nodded but stopped abruptly as he noticed something in the distance.
The pieces of rubble had started floating in the air, moving aside.
After enough rubble was moved from the top, two spherical barriers came into sight. Two men were standing inside the barriers, standing on the floating skateboard.
There was not a single wound on their body as they stood perfectly fine.
The two of them started rising in the air, observing the Warlock Council remnants.
Hidden in their Shadows, the shadow of Kellian was also safe.
Kellian couldn't believe that all the remnants of the Warlock Council were here. Just what kind of idiots were they? If he had known that they were all going to wait here like lambs, he would've convinced Lucifer to come here first to finish them.
"It's good that you're all here. I won't need to waste my time! Where is he?" the old man asked. "In the name of Atlantis, I command you to tell me the whereabouts of your silver-haired partner!"
"Who?" Everyone looked confused at the old man.
"It looks like you won't answer nicely. It's alright. I have other ways to get my answers." The old man said.
...
On a different Island, the battle between Eve and Jestor was getting intense. Eve's Energy Negation wasn't having the desired effect in stopping Jestor.
He could Teleport wherever he wanted. Since he had a longer range of Teleportation, he had an inherent advantage over Milena, who was trying all she could to catch Jestor, only to fail so far.
Jestor was like a ghost that was being very clever about where to appear and how to attack.
The only way Eve was still able to stand was because she was extremely fast, but even then, she was having a hard time. There were many cuts all over her body.
Her clothes were also wet as she was left at the bottom of the ocean by Jestor quite a lot of time.
"You are just wasting your time. You can't defeat me like this. I'm still being nice. Don't make me get serious! Hand over the stone!" Eve warned Lucifer.
"I'm sorry, but there is no way I'll be giving you the stone," Jestor said, appearing behind Eve. Eve stepped aside, protecting her heart from being stabbed.
"You asked for it," she said, grabbing Jestor's wrist in return. She crushed the wrist of Jestor before he could Teleport away.
The Sword of Jestor dropped to the ground as his left wrist was crushed.
"I told him that I'm going to act nice and not act out, but if that's what you want to do, then you can't blame me!" Eve said as he started rising in the air.
"You're good," Jestor said, looking at his crushed wrist. "And you also have an advantage with your Energy Negation and other abilities. You seemed to be blessed with a number of abilities."
"I didn't expect I would see another person like this after Lucifer. But the way you use your blessings, that's disappointing."
"Did you just say Lucifer and many other abilities?" Eve asked, frowning.
"Yeah, why? You know him?"
"If you're talking about the same Lucifer with silver hair and too many abilities to count, then yeah. He's the reason I'm here, after all. He needs that stone?"
"You're lying," Jestor exclaimed. "Why would he send you here? He knows me. All he needs is to talk to me, and I would've given a mere stone to him."
"Why would I lie to you?" Eve asked, rolling her eyes. "You're not strong enough for me to trick you."
"If you're telling me the truth, then call him and let me talk to him. If It's the truth, I won't think twice before giving you the stone. I'll also forgive you for hurting my wrist."
"I still don't understand how you know him. I don't think he ever came here, but still. If that will make you give the stone to me without wasting my time, I'm more than happy to do it."
Milena brought her phone out and dialed a number, but it didn't connect.
The classes in Lucifer's pocket were already crushed as his body was pinned to the ground.
She called Kellian instead.
"What?" Kellian asked as soon as he picked up the call. He was slightly busy, so straight got to the point.
"Can you connect me with Lucifer? My call isn't getting through?"
"Why do you need to talk to him? He might be busy?"
"Well, someone here wants to talk to him in exchange for giving the stone to me without fighting. Just get me through to him."
"Alright, wait a minute."
He tried to connect the call to Lucifer himself, but it didn't work for him either.
"I can't get through to him either. It's odd," He told Milena, frowning. "Give me a second. I'll try to see what happened to him. I'll contact you later."
"Wait, what would I do until the-"
Beep~
The call was already disconnected even while she was sleeping.
