Chapter 405 - 405: I Should've Wished For Something Else

"Are you listening to me?" Salazar asked Lucifer, not getting any reply.

"Hmm? What’s that?" Lucifer finally said something, but there was a surprise on his face.

"What?" Salazar asked, approaching the window. He also looked outside.

As he looked outside, he was able to see something bright coming towards them.

"That’s a missile!" Salazar yelled, but it was already too late. The missile had already reached the plane, hitting it.

Salazar’s yell brought Caen out of his sleep too.

As the missile had already hit the plane, Salazar cast his Domain in a hurry, slowing down the impact.

There was no way to stop the missile. The only option was to slow down the damage as much as they could before jumping.

Under Salazar’s domain, the time slowed down.

Salazar hastily brought three parachutes that were kept in the cabin. The plane shook extremely slowly as the missile which had hit the plane exploded.

The missile was also under Salazar’s domain, just like the plane, so even the explosion was slow. The fire spread exceptionally slowly.

In the meantime, Salazar made Lucifer wear the parachute. He also made Caen wear the parachute. He also wore one himself.

Salazar couldn’t control his domain to perfection. He couldn’t affect certain things and make other things unaffected. Everything inside his domain was affected, including Lucifer.

Salazar carried Lucifer with his left arm while keeping Caen on his shoulder before he walked to the exit.

By now, the fire had started spreading inside the plane as the exterior of the plane was destroyed. The massive explosion kept expanding only.

"Man, just when I complained about this flight being short, it was made short. I should’ve wished for something else. Such a wasted opportunity," Salazar said, disappointing.

A cloud of fire was reaching him from behind, only landing one meter behind him by now when Salazar opened the exit door.

He tossed Caen outside before jumping with Lucifer.

As Caen came out of the reach of Salazar’s domain, he felt extreme winds brushing against his face and his body. Shocked, he found himself in the middle of the air, extremely confused. He couldn’t understand what had happened. How did he end up here?

He also noticed a parachute on his back. Balancing his body, he looked up, wondering what actually happened.

He could see Salazar also coming behind him with Lucifer. The plane behind them was slowly being blown up.

As Salazar got out of the plane’s reach, the plane also came out of his Domain. The time in the plane returned to normal.

Boom!

A deafening noise fell in everyone’s ears as the plane was blown up to pieces. What remained of it started falling down.

Salazar stopped his Domain, sighing a breath of relief. The three of them had survived. Fortunately, Lucifer had noticed the missile at the last second.

As Salazar stopped using his powers, Lucifer also returned to normal. He looked at the massive cloud of fire in the sky and the pieces of their plane crashing down.

"Lucifer, listen. You have a parachute. As soon as I free you, balance your body and pull it. We will land safely," Salazar reminded Lucifer. "Alright?"

"Yeah, free me," Lucifer said.

Salazar released Lucifer, who, instead of falling down, continued floating in the air.

Not only him, but he also made his winds help Salazar fly.

"Ah, right. How could I forget that you can fly? We didn’t even need these." Salazar smiled wryly.

Lucifer looked around, trying to find Caen. He was able to find Caen under him. Caen had already pulled the parachute, and he was going down slowly.

Lucifer flew towards Caen with Salazar and helped him land safely too.

All three of them landed on the ground safely.

Caen took off the parachute, freeing himself.

"Well, there goes our ride. It’s surprising though. Why would someone try to bring down our plane? Did someone leak the information about our trip? Is it the work of the Warlock Council?" he asked, glancing at the empty sky.

"I’m not sure. This was really unexpected actually. For someone to attack us. This information was kept under wraps. Even though many people knew we were going to the Divine Empire, none knew about the route we were going to follow," Lucifer commented, frowning.

"The route was decided at the last moment. Only Kellian and a few other people knew about the route we were going to take, and that was also decided just before we sat inside the plane," he further added. "That much time isn’t enough for someone to plan an ambush."

"Still, if it was leaked, who could have done so?" Caen asked.

"My bet is on Kellian. With you gone, he would be the sole ruler. He gets the most benefit from your death," Salazar pointed out.

"No. Kellian isn’t that stupid. He would have known that just an explosion isn’t enough to kill me. At best, It would have killed you and Caen. I would’ve survived. He won’t be behind such stupid ambush." Lucifer shook his head, not believing it.

" As a matter of fact, no one in Uprising would be stupid enough to think that it would work," he further added.

"Freaking great. There’s no signal either." Caen cursed, noticing no signal on his phone. We can’t contact the base either."

Salazar also checked his phone. "That’s right. It seems like we can’t."

"Don’t worry; I can. Mine is connected to our satellite. Who knew this was going to come handy so soon," Lucifer said, bringing out black sunglasses from his pocket.

"You’re going to wear sunglasses at night?" Salazar asked, looking at Lucifer weirdly.

"These aren’t sunglasses. I mean, they are, but they’re more too. They’re a communication device," Lucifer replied, wearing the sunglasses.

"Call Kellian!" Lucifer commanded.

"Voice match complete. Calling Kellian." Lucifer heard a voice that only he could hear.

Next, he heard the sound of ringing. Kellian soon picked up the call.

"Kellian, our plane was just blown up. I want you to find what happened and who is behind it. Get me as much information as you can. I want to know what’s happening here," Lucifer commanded Kellian.

"Your plane was blown up? What?" Kellian asked, surprised. "How are you? Are the others fine?"

"Yeah. Salazar, Caen, and I, we’re all safe, but the plane has been blown up to pieces," Lucifer answered.

"I am sure you can get my location. Take Vega’s help and tell me where I am? Also, tell me what’s happening here so I can decide what to do next."

"I’ll find what’s happening. Give me some time.. Until then, you stay where you are."
