Chapter 371: Backup

The creature didn't make any noise at all. The spikes of this creature started getting bigger and bigger as they closed in on the group of five. 

 ....

 "Tristan! What the heck did you do?! Why is that plane still in the air!"

 Kellian was yelling, upset. It wasn't Tristan alone who was angered because of this miss. 

 "I missed it. A human distracted me at the last second. The plane left. I can't stop him now," Tristan replied, sighing. "I'm sorry for failing."

 "You return to the base this instant! Get back to the airport!" Kellian commanded Tristan before disconnecting the call. 

 ....

 Inside the jet of Warlock Council, a middle-aged man was sitting, looking out through the window. He didn't really know how close he was to death just a moment ago. 

 He looked at the time on his phone. "Three more hours."

 The man opened his files and started going through some documents which had information about the people leading the Uprising. They were the new overlords of Elisium. 

 These records didn't have much information about Lucifer, though. He wasn't part of Uprising for a long time. He had only appeared just now, which was why there weren't any details about him. 

 All these documents had on Lucifer was the fact that he was the son of Zale Azarel. 

 The man turned the pages in the file as he continued reading. 

 ...

 Inside his office, Kellian was looking at the footage of the Warlock Council jet, still upset. But he wasn't as furious. 

 "Dallas, Tristan failed. It's your turn! Take that plane out! Make sure it doesn't leave the airspace of Alekia!" He told someone over the phone before disconnecting the call. 

 ...

 "Well, these guys sure are good. With so few people, they managed to take over Elisium," the Warlock Council Envoy let out as he kept the file back. 

 He brought his laptop out of his bag and used the net to video call someone. 

 As the call connected, he saw the beautiful face of a lady. 

 "Hey, little girl. Did you pass the test? How was your performance amongst all the interns of the Warlock Council?" The dark-haired man asked, smiling innocently. 

 "Brother, I wanted to tell you the good news too. I did great! I think I will end up first like this," the girl on the other end replied.

 "As expected. I knew my little sister Jenilia would do great. Keep performing like this. And one day, you'll be a permanent member of the Warlock Council as well. You'll be the third member of the Quasi family to join the Warlock Council."

 "Of course I will. Just you wait!" The girl replied, clenching her fist. She was none other than Jenilia that had met Lucifer twice— once on the ship and the second time on the road. 

 "I see you're still on the plane. Did you still not reach Elisium?" Jenilia asked. 

 "I haven't yet. I still have a few hours to go," the dark-haired man answered.

 "How long is your mission? When will you return?" Jenilia asked. 

 "I'll get there. Get the stone that uncle Varant refused to give us before and return. It won't take long," the man answered. 

 "That's good. You need to be here next month on my birthday! I won't take any excuses!" Jenilia insisted. 

 "Alright, alright. Don't worry. I promise you; nothing will stop me from attending your birthday party. So make sure to make the celebration grand. I don't want to come back to some lame party," the dark-haired man said, chuckling. 

 "Lame party? Just you wait. I'll throw an explosive party! You'll enjoy..." Jenilia said, but before she could even finish, everything changed. 

 All she saw was the fire everywhere and a booming sound that came from the speaker of her laptop. The connection was gone... Everything turned black. 

 "Brother!" Jenilia yelled at the top of her lungs. 

 ....

 In a different city of Alekia, a blonde man was standing on the roof. There was a smirk on his face as he looked at the sky. A plane had just blown up in the sky, and now it was falling down.

 The blonde man tapped his earpiece before speaking. "Mission is complete. The target is down."

 "Good work. You can also come back. Get out of there." A voice fell in his ears, coming from the earpiece. 

 The blonde man was one of the most trusted men of Kellian. He was known as Dallas Zioni. He was a powerful Warlock who was an expert in long-range attacks. 

 Before sending Tristan, Kellian had actually sent Dallas here because he wasn't sure if Tristan was fine or not. 

 After meeting Tristan, he modified his plan and sent Tristan for the mission as well since he was more qualified for this mission. As for Dallas, he was moved to backup. 

 Both these men were sent to two different cities. It was to make sure that the plane came down. Kellian had already arranged this backup plan. If Tristan was to fail for some unfortunate reason, Dallas was waiting in another city to take the plane down. 

 Now that the mission was over, it was the turn of the two of them to return to Elisium, making sure not to leave any trace of the Uprising in that city. 

 Dallas reached the airport of the city he was in, where a plane was already waiting for him. His flight was booked as well. 

 Similarly, Tristan also went to the airport of his city. Contrary to Dallas, he was upset. He still couldn't believe that he had failed. And he had failed so badly. 

 Even though Kellian had informed him that the mission was successful, he still couldn't find himself to be happy. 

 ...

 A strange creature appeared behind Uzuki and the others without making any noise. 

 The spikes on their body started getting bigger as they closed in on the other without making any noise. 

 "So, shall we leave?" Uzuki repeated his question. 

 "No. We can't leave like that. Who knows, these men might be left alive. We need to finish the mission now that we're here," Lucifer replied. 

 "Doesn't that mean we'll have to fight that creature as well?" Uzuki asked. 

 " I'll take care of those creatures. You take out the Warlocks of Hunter Union," Lucifer said, without looking back. "Today, we won't be leaving without killing them."

 "Fine. You take care of those... Wait a minute? Did you say creatures? Isn't there only one there?" Uzuki let out, confused. He didn't understand why he talked as if there were more than one. 

 "No. I meant creatures indeed. I wasn't talking about one," Lucifer grimly said.
