Chapter 618: Secret Of Stones

The old man's hologram disappeared. 

....

"What? You want me to be in the meeting with that guy? Old man, have you gone crazy? You go deal with him!"

"Huh? He is being stubborn? So what? Why should I care?"

"Fine! I'm going to listen this once!"

...

The old man kept contacting everyone who was in the head office to be in the meeting with Lucifer. After a lot of hard work, he finally convinced everyone who was there to attend the meeting. 

Everyone agreed except one person. And that person was the same person who had supported the old man in the last few meetings. It was Julien. 

"You want me to meet him? Sorry, I'm feeling too lazy today. Can't get up."

"Nope. No matter what you say, I'm not going. I'm already tired after all the meetings with you. No space for more. Just tell him I'm more here either. No one would care."

The old man tried his best, but Julien remained stubborn. In the end, the old man could only give up. 

He went back to Lucifer in the meeting room. 

"I contacted all who were in the office. They'll be here soon. However, there are around eight leaders who aren't in this city. You can only meet with the ones who are here personally." 

"And how many are here in this city?" Lucifer asked. 

"Twelve of us will be attending the meeting physically. And I should also be back in the city by tomorrow," the old man answered. 

Click~

Just as he finished speaking, another clicking sound was heard. The door opened, and a man stepped inside. 

The middle-aged man was dressed in the Golden Robe. 

He took the seat on the left of Andrim. 

"Ah, Joan. You're the first one here," the old man said to the dark-haired man who seemed pretty arrogant. 

"Lucifer? This is Joan. He is one of our most inspirational members. And Joan, he is Lucifer. The guy we talked about."

Joan lazily glanced at Lucifer. "So you're the person who killed our men."

"Cough." Andrim started coughing after seeing Joan raise this issue. 

"You mean the people that invaded my land and killed my men?" Lucifer asked, smiling. "That does ring a bell. They were your men? I honestly thought they were joking when they said they were from the Warlock Council. How could Warlock Council members be so weak."

"It wasn't even challenging to kill them honestly. That's why I didn't believe them when they said they were from this place. My mistake," he further added.

Joan's face twitched unwillingly. He could see that Lucifer was trying to insult them, and it was working. 

However, before he could retort, Andrim chimed in. "Let's forget the past. It's time we write a new chapter of our life."

The door again opened, and another man stepped inside. The chubby man was wearing casual clothes. 

He had donned a white shirt and a black jeans. He sat beside Joan. "So he's the kid? I thought he would look even younger."

"Lucifer, this is Ganso. Another member of the Head Council here," Andrim introduced the second guy as well. 

One after another, more and more Warlock Council heads kept coming in. Before long, there were twelve Warlock Council members physically present there.

"Now that we're all here, shall we begin?" Andrim asked Lucifer. 

"Go ahead," Lucifer replied. 

"Actually, we have been thinking about something. We have seen you in action. And you are certainly strong. We believe that you can be a good addition to our Warlock Council. So we wanted to give you an offer to join us. You don't have to leave the Uprising to join us either."

"After you join us, you can still rule Elisium. And no one would trouble you again. Not only that, but we would even help you in extending your territory if you want. Moreover, you'll be allowed to use our resources which will help you get stronger."

"And what would I have to do for you?" Lucifer asked. "There's no free lunch in this world. So, tell me. What do you expect in return?"

"Nothing much. We just want you to be one of us. We want you to be a friend and not an enemy. With that, we can come to your help if you ever need it. Similarly, you'll have to come to our help when we need it. That's no catch," Andrim said. 

"At first, we were only issuing this invitation to you. But seeing that you brought two friends as well, we won't mind letting them join us as well," he further added.

"Huh?" Seeing the old man give two more head positions like this, quite a lot of Warlock Council members looked at him in surprise. 

"Of course, they'll be part of your team under the Warlock Council. They won't be head of the Warlock Council like you, but they'll have the second-highest position after that. I don't think there should be any reason for you to say no. So, what's your answer?"

Lucifer already knew what they wanted from him, so he didn't need to think much about it. It was all a trap so they could use him and then kill him after his work was done. So he didn't actually want to join. But it was a good chance to get some information. 

"If I want to join you, won't I need to trust you first? And similarly, if you can't trust me, I don't think I'll be able to join. So, do you trust me enough to be your teammate?" Lucifer asked. 

"Of course we do," Andrim responded. 

"Prove it," Lucifer said, smirking. 

"Prove how?" Andrim asked. 

"Tell me why you need the stones? Why were you after the stone of Elisium? If you tell the truth, I might even share that stone with you after joining you. So show me your trust."

"This..."

The old man didn't reply. He was slightly surprised at what Lucifer asked for. 

"This is something that only the leaders of the Warlock Council can know. I'm sorry, but we can't tell you."

"Aren't you inviting me to be a leader? I should be allowed to know. If you don't trust me to tell me what other leaders know, it just shows you don't trust me. I can't join," Lucifer replied. "Sorry, I refuse the invitation."

"This... Fine! I'll tell you. But get your friends out first. I'll only tell you. And you aren't allowed to share this information. Moreover, after knowing this, you can't refuse the invitation. Since we won't allow you to leave.. So are you sure you want to know?" The old man asked.
