Inhuman Warlock

Kellian smiled as he nodded. "Alright. Alicia is a really nice girl. She's kind, and she's smart. Not a bad choice. I would be happy if Lucifer selects her."

"Next, who else wants to take part in this small competition to help Lucifer?" he asked, observing others.

"I'm out of it," Kane responded, sighing. "I don't think I can be of any help in this. I don't know how to help myself find a girl, let alone help Lucifer."

He refused to take part in the competition and raided his hands.

"Yaliza, you?" Kellian asked Yaliza.

"I also want to do this if it can help Lucifer. I would select Eve in that case. I've seen her bond with Lucifer. I'm sure she's halfway there already. Just a little more, and she can do it," Yaliza responded with a smile. "This is going to be fun."

"Salazar, you?" Kellian asked the last person here.

"I still believe that Amelia is the one he wants. Moreover, I saw their bond when I was in the World of Summons. Even though it'll be hard, I want to help mend that bond. I'll select Amelia," Salazar answered.

"Are you sure? The others selected the girls who are here. They already have an advantage. We don't even know when Lucifer will go back to the World of Summons and if he'll take us. Are you sure you want to select her?" Kellian asked just to be sure.

He believed if there was any person here who deserved the Uprising throne here, it was Salazar. He didn't want Salazar to make a wrong decision.

"I'm sure," Salazar smiled in response. "I want to do it."

"If that's what you all want, I won't oppose it. That leaves only Milena. I will help her. I think she has a good chance as well. She is a girl of emotions who has faced many adversities. She knows how scary loneliness and the loss of loved ones can be. I believe she can understand Lucifer the best and help him in his journey, physically, emotionally, and mentally," Kellian declared, taking the last choice.

With that, everyone had selected a girl they wanted to help win Lucifer's heart. The battle had just begun... As for who the winner was going to be... No one knew.

Unaware of what was happening behind his back, Lucifer had just fallen asleep on the flight. Even though it wasn't easy, he had managed to calm his heart and sleep.

If only he knew what the others were planning for him, it was unclear what his reaction was going to be. It certainly wasn't going to be good that everyone could be sure of.

After a short time, the flight attendants informed the squad that they had started their descent near the airport. They were almost at their destination.

"I'll wake him up," Salazar let out, walking towards the cabin of Lucifer. He didn't want to wake Lucifer up so soon, but he was sure that Lucifer knew how short the flight was. If he still decided to sleep, it was clear that he knew the sleep was going to be short.

He opened the cabin door to find Lucifer peacefully sleeping. However, something wasn't right.

He didn't know why but he could see a tear in the corner of Lucifer's eyes. Even when he was sleeping, his hands were still trembling because of the damage to his nerves.

"Lucifer?" Salazar shook Lucifer, trying to wake him up.

Lucifer slowly opened his eyes, somewhat seemingly relieved to know where he was. He sighed as he pushed his body up with his trembling hands.

"Are you alright?" Salazar asked, a bit concerned.

"What could be wrong with me?" Lucifer asked. "I'm fine."

"Your hands... They are trembling," Salazar pointed.

"You noticed it just how? They've been trembling for weeks. My nerves are damaged, but it's not a big deal. It's just a bit of trembling," Lucifer responded as he stood up.

"This... I didn't know. What about your healing? Why isn't that working on your hands?" Salazar inquired.

"The damage is beyond what my healing can handle. It'll be like this forever," Lucifer answered, letting out a sigh. "Don't worry about this."

"Are we about to land?" he asked.

"Yeah. That's why I came to wake you up. But before we leave, can I ask you one more question?"

"What question? If it's not about my hand, ask," Lucifer lazily responded.

"You were crying in your sleep. There was a tear around your eyes. Were you having a bad dream?" Salazar tossed a question, wondering if Lucifer had a nightmare. However, he wasn't looking concerned. He was perfectly calm as he slept except for that one tear.

"Probably because of that nonsense dream. Don't worry. It wasn't anything major," Lucifer let out, sighing. He pushed Salazar aside and left his cabin, walking to the others.

"Something that can make you cry... How can it not be anything major? Just what were you dreaming?" Kellian muttered, watching Lucifer leave. He didn't know what Lucifer dreamt, but he was sure it was something major.

If Lucifer didn't want to talk about it, he couldn't force him. He could just let the matter go since it was a dream. He joined the others as well.

The plane soon prepared for landing. As the plane landed successfully, the team of seven stepped out of the plane and entered the helicopter that was waiting for them outside. Even though Lucifer had simply brought Veracity with him for his own questions, now that she was here, he decided to bring her with him to meet the Predictor.

The helicopter took flight and advanced towards the previous Uprising Headquarters, where Lucifer had only been a few times. In fact, he believed he had only gone there twice in his lifetime, one when he was young and the second time to collect his Baattlegear and to meet Predictor.

The flight soon reached the place where the Headquarters was established, thanks to Kellian guiding the pilot.

The helicopter floated in the middle of the desert, waiting for the doors in the ground to open. Unfortunately, the doors didn't open.

"Looks like our old friends don't want to welcome us," Kellian informed Lucifer, who was wondering why they hadn't landed yet.

"He must be shy," Lucifer smiled. "Let's go say hi."

Lucifer slid the doors off the helicopter open and jumped down, landing on the sand.

"Predictor, I came all the way here for you. Won't you say hi?" Lucifer asked, laughing.

He raised his head towards the sky, calling forth a massive bolt of lightning. "Knock knock."
