Chapter 430: Queen Can't Blame Me

Lucifer and Salazar reached the Royal Palace, but they still kept their distance as they circled the Royal Palace to find the weakest part of the security.

"The whole Palace is surrounded by Nobles. I don't think there's even an inch left. And the problem with Nobles is that they can see in the dark too. They can certainly notice us if we fly closer," Salazar reminded Lucifer, noticing no weak spots. 

"I think we should attack them directly and barge inside. Isn't that a better plan?" he asked, suggesting the bard approach. 

"No, I have a better plan," Lucifer commented, smiling. 

He placed his head in his pocket and brought a gun out. 

He inserted the magazine with the sleeping bullets in the gun.. 

"A gun? What do you want me to do with it?" Salazar asked. "You want to shoot them?"

"No, I want to miss them," Lucifer answered, smiling. "These bullets have a sleeping gas inside. They'll put them to sleep. But I need your help." 

"What help?" Salazar asked, frowning. 

"I want you to slow down time if the Nobles start running. They need to stay in the range of the bullet for some time for it to take effect. That's one of the flaws of this bullet. And I need your help for this," Lucifer explained. 

Salazar nodded, agreeing with the plan. 

Lucifer landed on top of one of the buildings where he could hide after firing. The fundamental aim of the mission was to make sure they could infiltrate while leaving no proof that it was the work of a Variant. 

That's why he didn't want to kill any of them tonight. 

Lucifer raises the gun, aiming it towards the main entrance where four Nobles were standing. 

Taking an aim, he fired before taking cover. 

The bullet flew towards the Nobles, who seemingly heard the sound of a gunshot. Their ears were really sharp. They heard the gunshot. 

Raising their head in the direction of the sound, they grew surprised as they found no one. The bullet landed on the ground, missing the target, landing in the middle of them. 

"A bullet?" One of the nobles landed on the ground, observing the bullet. 

"It looks like some stupid human wanted to kill us? Hah, childish," A red-haired Noble mentioned. 

"You all wait here. I'll check myself," he added, flying towards the direction of the bullet. 

The other three Nobles remained near the bullet. 

"The humans really dared to use their toys on us? That too with such a bad aim? That person must have a death wish."

"Heh, just wait. He'll be found. Then we'll have fun with him and his family."

The three Nobles started talking while laughing, unaware as a strange gas filled their surroundings. 

The red-haired Noble landed on the roof where Lucifer and Salazar were hiding, only to find no one there.

Only a bullet was lying on the ground. 

The strange gas has filled this place too.

The red-haired Noble picked up the bullet, keeping it in his hands as he looked around. 

At the same time, Lucifer and Salazar had moved to a different place, watching everything. 

"Looks like we won't need to slow time. It'll work just like that," Lucifer commented, realizing that no Noble was moving. Even the red-haired Noble stood in the range of a different bullet, looking around. 

Soon, one minute passed... Two minutes passed... Five minutes passed...

Even after five minutes had passed, no noble fell asleep. 

"Ah, I hope you got a warranty on that gun. Because I doubt it works. You should return that," Salazar reminded Lucifer, who himself was frustrated.

Why wasn't this working? It did work on the humans. Could it be that this gas didn't work on the nobles?

"These bullets didn't work on me either. It seems like they probably have poison resistance too. That would certainly mean that the gun is useless," Lucifer muttered, nodding his head. 

"What next then?" Salazar inquired. 

"Next, we'll get serious. No need to be subtle. Kill them all as we infiltrate the place. We just need to make sure their bodies aren't found, so no one could blame us," Lucifer commented. 

"You think you can take care of those three Nobles at the entrance?" he asked Salazar. 

"Do you even need to ask that?" Salazar smirked, stretching his arms. "Just leave that to me."

"That's good. I'll take care of the fourth one in the building," Lucifer commented, flying towards the building. 

As for Salazar, he slowed down time, covering the entire Palace as he started running towards the entrance, bringing out his sharp knives from his pocket. 

Lucifer, at the same time, landed on top of the building, which was free of time restrictions. 

Seeing Lucifer land on the building, the red-haired Noble was surprised. 

"Aren't you the man from the bar? I thought it was a human who attacked us, but it was you? The leader of the Warlock Council is a weakling, not surprising," the red-haired man laughed, amused. 

He was also in the bar when Lucifer had entered that place in the morning. At night, his duty was at the palace. 

"Why did you show yourself now though? Why no hiding anymore? Did you accept your death already?" He asked. 

"You talk too much," Lucifer answered, shaking his head. 

"And I'll keep talking, but you won't be capable of hearing," The red-haired man said, grinning. 

"Queen can't blame me for killing you n- arghhh."

The man couldn't even finish speaking as he felt immense pain. His head rolled down, falling off his body. 

His eyes remained open even as he died. He didn't even know how it happened. All he knew was that suddenly winds started brushing against his skin, and the next thing he knew was that his head was lying on the ground.

He still couldn't believe that it had happened. He didn't even see Lucifer move his hand, after all. 

"As I said, you talk too much," Lucifer repeated, shaking his head. "A Warlock shouldn't talk this much. But then again, you're not an exception. I have a feeling that all nobles are too arrogant, not taking anything seriously."

He stepped towards the Noble. Taking off his gloves, he touched the face of the Noble, letting it decay. Next, he moved over to the body and did the same thing. 

Soon, nothing of the red-haired Noble was left, except for some ashes. Even the ashes soon flew away with the wind, going to the unknown. 

Finished, Lucifer turned around, looking towards the Palace in the distance. There, he could see Salazar fighting.
