Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 602 - 602: Threat



36 years ago, Year 2020...

The world had just started changing. Many weird structures started coming out of the ground. 

All the humans were confused about these structures. They tried to explore these places; however, none came out alive from them. 

It was after a long time that a person finally came out alive, but even he was heavily injured. He informed everyone that there were many monsters inside these Dungeons that were never seen before. 

The new discovery shocked the humans as they knew the risks if these monsters could come out. They started researching these Dungeons. 

At the same time, another change was happening in the world. 

An eighteen-year-old girl was coming back from college when she felt her body burn. She lost consciousness. 

The people who knew her brought her to her home. 

After the girl woke up again, she realized that she was different. She could feel something strange. She was faster, and she was stronger. Moreover, she realized that she had gained some powers.

Even though Eve's family was poor, they loved her a lot and didn't believe in witches and stuff. Thus even after she told them about her strange powers, they simply told her to keep it a secret and not tell anyone. 

Despite that, the people of the town started noticing it as she couldn't keep her powers under wraps after seeing people in trouble. She started using her strength for the good, contributing to safety and in the advancement of technology. 

Despite her being weird, she became the favorite of the town that respected her instead of fearing her. 

After three years of her Awakening, the phenomena of awakening appeared again, this time on a bigger scale. 

More Variants started appearing. It was as if everyone was suddenly gaining powers. The phenomenon was called the Dawn of Awakening. 

The world changed even more as the governments started focusing on training the Variants to reach their full potential. 

...

Year 2024...

Another bright young man gained his powers when he was just nineteen years old. 

The young man was named Zale Azarel, who became a Warlock, awakening a year before his future wife. 

...

Year 2028...

Just as the humans became complacent that the Dungeon Dwellers couldn't come out, it happened. 

Millions of Dungeon Dwellers came out of the Dungeons. 

There were massacres everywhere. The Variants also stepped forward to fight the Dungeon Dwellers and keep the humans safe. 

All continents were engulfed in wars except two: the continent of Darkness and the small island where Lucifer studied with Cassius. 

After billions of deaths and a hard fight, the humans were finally Victorious, thanks to the contribution of all Variants, especially of Zale Azarel...

After the war, another change happened in the world. The awakenings changed slightly. At the start of Dawn of Awakening, people woke up at any age. There were no limits. 

However, it was discovered that after the great war, only people who were younger than ten years old could wake up...

Another change in the world happened with the equation between the Variants and the humans. 

Because of their great performance in the War, they were highly respected. Some Variants were nice and didn't interfere in governance even after that like it happened in Elisium. 

However, there was also another continent where Variants were more brazen. They ruled the lands in tyranny, treating humans like slaves. 

Eve also lived on the same continent. Despite being the first Variant, she hated using her powers in battles and wars. She hadn't even fought against the Dungeon Dwellers, let alone against the tyranny of other Variants. 

The humans, upset by the conduct of the Variants, decided to come to her for help. They wanted her to do something to help them, but Eve said she couldn't fight. 

Just as the humans were disappointed, she suggested something else though. 

"We can move to another place... A safe place where only humans can live and Variants can't come?" She suggested. "Variants except me, of course, since I'm one of you."

That one suggestion... It was the foundation of Atlantis. 

Eve and the humans left the continent and found a new place to live. 

With time and the technology they had, they slowly started working on Atlantis... A city under water that was far away from war and destruction. 

...

Year 2032...

The construction of Atlantis was completed... At least the outer structure and the houses where people could live. 

The Town Elder of the town where Eve lived before was made the King of Atlantis to make sure that Atlantis worked like it was supposed to. 

...

Year 2036...

Eve continued working with the humans, helping them master new technology. Within five years, the humans were strong enough to face the Variants on their own with the help of this technology. 

But in the background of all this corporation and growth, some discontent was growing as well. 

There were some people who started advocating against Eve, saying that it was only a matter of time before they would have to face the Variants in War. And they didn't trust Eve to side with them at that time. 

Through propaganda and misinformation, they managed to plant the seed of doubt and hatred in most of the citizens of Atlantis. 

The King was strictly supportive of Eve, so he didn't let anything happen to her. 

...

Year 2037, March 20...

The King of Atlantis was found dead on his bed. It was said that he suffered a heart attack; however, no one knew the truth as there was no investigation. 

The eldest son of the King became the new King. 

Unlike the old King, the new King was more suspicious of Eve because of all the rumors about her possible betrayal. Moreover, he was surrounded by all the negative people only. 

He was convinced that they had already advanced enough in technology that they didn't need her. 

After slight consideration, he ordered the death of Eve... And the task was given to one of his ministers. 

After a little more discussion, it was decided that she wasn't to be killed with weapons as she could fight back. She was to be killed with the fiercest poison to ever exist, a poison which had no cure.

....

December 20, 2037

Eve was invited to dinner by the minister who was tasked with killing her. 

Eve knew that there were some people who didn't like her, but even she didn't expect that even the Royals would try to kill her. 

She drank the poison without any suspicions. 

The poison started acting immediately, and Eve dropped to the ground. Her face turned pale, and her heartbeat stopped. 

The Minister checked up on her and checked her heartbeat. After making sure she wasn't breathing, he smiled proudly. "Heh, finally, I'm done."

He called one of his servants. "Bring the coffin I arranged. Even though she died a rat's death, at least we can bury her with her royal symbol. Hehehe."

...

Year 2038... 

Lucifer opened his eyes in the arms of his parents at the hospital…
