Chapter 556 - 556: Plan B

Yui stood up, not saying no to Lucifer. "I'll come to see you often. I hope your stay here is good."

"Thank you "

Lucifer watched Yui and Hun leave. After the two of them left, he stood up and closed the door before walking back.

"You said you had a mattress?" Lucifer asked Gon.

"T-that is right."

"Bring it out and place it there."

Gon hastily brought the mattress out, placing it in the group.

"Salazar, I think you should go to sleep. I'm going to need you up at night to keep an eye on Gon."

"I just woke up from sleep." Salazar smiled wryly. It wasn't even afternoon. How could he sleep so fast?

"I know that. But it's also here that we need someone up at night and alert. And I trust you the most. So try to sleep, so you aren't sleepy at night. When you wake up, Jenilia will go to sleep."

"I think I can stay up at night without having to sleep now. There were many times when I remained up for over twenty-four hours. You don't have to be worried. Moreover, if I remain up now and at night, I can sleep tomorrow morning. Let's just skip sleep for today?" Salazar suggested, not willing to sleep.

He knew how impossible it was for him to sleep so early.

Lucifer looked at Jenilia.

"I can't sleep so soon either," Jenilia repeated the same statement.

"Fine. Both of you stay up. Tonight, you'll sleep, and tomorrow morning, Salazar will sleep."

Lucifer decided to trust in the confidence of Salazar. Moreover, he was also going to stay up tonight, so he didn't force them if they didn't want to.

He returned to playing with the metal piece in his hand.

"Gon, is there anything else regarding that world that you're missing? Any minor detail that you skipped?"

"I told you all I knew. Other than that, I know nothing about that world," Gon replied.

"No other material that you brought back or something like that?" Lucifer asked.

"None. Just that one piece, and I don't even know how."

"It's clear you were summoned to fight someone. And that person was either using a sword or a trident. It's a piece of that weapon since I doubt you'd bring a piece of the weapon of your summoner. But what can this Atlantis be?"

"Maybe they are weapon manufacturers? I mean, this metal piece is unlike anything I saw before. It's much sharper and more durable. Maybe they are the suppliers of the Warlock Council?" Salazar suggested. "Weapon manufacturers do care about their brand."

"That's impossible. Suppliers won't be classified like that," Jenilia chimed in.

Inside the small house, a discussion was taking place about Atlantis. On the other hand, another discussion was happening in a different place, but it was related to Lucifer.

"So the Snow Wolves took the three foreigners to a commoner's house? And they were left there?"

"That's right, My Lord. The Snow Wolves came with them. But when they went back, they were alone. I saw it with my own eyes. Those foreigners are still inside that house!"

"Very intriguing. Why would three High Beasts that came from another city go to an ordinary beast's house in the city? What could he have that they needed?"

"Ah, sir? What do you want to do? Should I continue keeping an eye on them?"

"There's no need! I would personally go to meet them this time. Who knows, I might have to crush some insects today."

....

"Still no contact with him?"

"Negative. I'm not sure what happened.?It's like he has gone off-grid suddenly. We can't even trace the glasses that were connected to the satellite."

Inside the office of Kellian, a discussion was taking place between him and Vega. Kane, Tristan, Dallas, and the other main members were also present inside.

"Do you think something could have happened to him?" Vega asked.

"What could have happened? He had killed the enemies when we left. There was no risk, and now he's nowhere to be found!" Kellian exclaimed!

"Maybe Salazar...?" Vega suggested.

"You mean he killed Lucifer?"

"Maybe? Or maybe he just took Lucifer? That was his goal when he came here after all?" Vega explained.

"That's true. The bracelet was also taken off, which could control his powers, so Salazar was certainly free to betray us. I think we should try to find Salazar instead." Dallas agreed.

"There's also that new group as well. The people from the Divine Empire?" Tristan also chimed in with his suspicion.

"Certainly. Those people are waiting in the hall downstairs. Why should we believe what they say? They claim to have reached the battleground, saying they didn't find anyone. Who knows, they found them and decided to take them out?" Kane agreed.

"I'm not sure about that. I still didn't understand why they would attack Lucifer like that. If they wanted to, they would've attacked in the Divine Empire. He didn't have a big army there either. Why would they wait to come here to kill him?" Dallas asked, not believing this theory.

"I believe Salazar is related to it as well," Vega let out.

Kellian remained seated on his chair, resting his head on his hands as he listened to all sides.

"Vega? I want you to continue searching for Lucifer but focus more on Salazar. Dig out his entire history and try to find where he could go if he wanted to escape. I don't care how you do it; I want them located."

"We're already trying to do that. Is there anything else I should focus on?"

"Just that for now. Also, keep an eye on the Warlock Council. I want every piece of information you can get me about their reaction. That would be all. You can leave."

Vega departed from the room, shaking his head.

"What about those Nobles? What should we do regarding them?" Dallas asked after Vega left.

"They claim they were brought here by Lucifer to help us. If that's the case, let them stay here. We might be needing their help against what's to come. Don't tell them about the disappearance of Lucifer. We should keep them in the dark about his disappearance," Kellian responded.

"I had another concern."

"Speak?"

"It's about the Warlock Council. We already killed two of their teams, especially with the help of Lucifer and the Nobles. But next time, they'll send even bigger forces. They would come seriously prepared. Should we really stay here like sitting ducks?"

Hearing the question of Vega, Kellian started smiling. "Who says we're going to do that?"
