Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 978: The Joining

"Don't worry. After your breakthrough, we can still drink. I'll show you our beautiful kingdom when you come out," Raayi's father didn't feel offended. He escorted Lucifer straight to the room that he demanded... Lucifer had made sure that his room was in an area where no one else was staying, giving an excuse that different energy in the same vicinity could not only prevent his breakthrough but also hurt him. 

Thanks to the heavy words he used, no one was allowed to enter the area where Lucifer was staying. Even the two Generals decided to stay away from that place. 

The other members of Lucifer's crew were also given rooms but in a different area of the castle. 

****

Lucifer was alone in the southern part of the castle. He was also the only person in this area. He had also told Raayi's father that he had enough food and water for his breakthrough, and they didn't need to send a servant since that could only be detrimental. 

Back inside the room, Lucifer sat in silence, confirming that no one was spying on him. Only after making sure he sighed in relief. Finally, he had some privacy. 

"Now that the world of Summons is destroyed, I don't think the Summoning could still establish a point of interaction in the world of Summons. 

This time, it should be a direct terminal with this world. And since it's Summoning, the defence of this world shouldn't be able to detect it. If they did, it'd be quite troublesome, but I can only take risks for now. 

Lucifer placed his hand on the ground and started casting a spell. For him, it was finally the time to sneak out of this place and go back to earth. 

After casting the Summoning Spells, he let the first spell succeed, calling one of his Slave Contract Beasts here. 

The Summoned Beast was one of the Ministers of the King of Beasts. He was surprised to find himself in a different surroundings. However, as soon as he saw Lucifer, he went down on knees respectfully. 

"This young one, greets Master."

"You will stay here until I send you back to earth. You aren't allowed to make any noise or let anyone know of your presence. If anyone finds out that you're here, you'll be the first one that will be killed!" Lucifer didn't waste much time in introducing the situation. 

He was just leaving this beast here as a safe point so he could return to this place when he needed. 

After warning the beast, Lucifer cast another Summoning spell, linking with a different beast on Earth. However, before the Summoning could succeed, he used his decay to manipulate the Summoning circle, creating a break in space and time. 

He stepped on the Summoning circle and disappeared. 

Finally, he was free! Finally, he was back on earth and could do as he pleased. 

Lucifer appeared at the headquarters of the Uprising, where his parents and some of his other teammates were staying. Usually, he would've greeted them, but for now, he was in a hurry. He had only taken a week of time. At most, the Generals were going to give him two weeks before they came to check up on him to see if he was fine. 

Another reason he didn't meet his parents was that if he did, he was sure that they weren't going to let him leave so soon. Leaving this place would've been even harder than leaving the Domain of Nimel Clan. 

Lucifer teleported outside the Headquarters of Uprising. Now that he was back on earth and out of Star Alliance's reach, he could use the seven stones to open the portal. 

Unfortunately, the problem remains the same for now. Now that earth was on Star Alliance's radar, if he opened the portal here, he had a feeling that the Star Alliance was going to know about it and create trouble for him. If they found out that it was related to the Ancient Clan, then no one could stop them from destroying earth. 

To save earth, he couldn't open the portal here as well. Fortunately, he had another place in mind. 

He surrounded his body in a mysterious spatial energy and flew up. Soon, Lucifer was already in the atmosphere of earth, but he didn't stop and kept going up until he had left earth's atmosphere. Fortunately, the Spatial Energy he was using helped protect him from unexpected disasters. 

Being able to breathe even in space, Lucifer kept going farther and farther from Earth. He had already checked the map of the Worlds associated with the Star Alliance. He intentionally went in the opposite direction from them to find a safe space where he could open the portal without being instantly found out. 

Fortunately, after working with Star Alliance, he knew about the range of their radars. 

After flying for four days straight, Lucifer finally stopped. He was feeling quite tired already, but he also felt that this much distance should've been enough. He could see a star in the distance, which was one-tenth the size of earth. 

Since he didn't need much space to open a portal, he decided to use that Star as his base. Lucifer landed on the empty star. He expanded his protection domain to have some space for himself to eat and drink. 

After covering a large area under his domain which protected that place from chaotic spatial energies, he finally pulled out some water and food. Before opening the portal, he wanted to be in his best condition, and that meant being full. 

It didn't take him long to finish eating. He was finally ready... Reach for what he had been waiting for over a decade. 

One after another, he started bringing out all the stones that he had gathered. Up to three stones, nothing was different. However, as soon as he brought out the fourth stone in the same vicinity, all four of the stones started shining and rising in the air.
