Inhuman Warlock Chapter 330 - 330: Job

Chapter 330 - 330: Job

"So I can leave now?" Uzuki asked, still hesitant.

"Not yet. We actually wanted to offer you a job. We heard that you don't have a family or anyone waiting for you. Is that right?" Lucifer asked.

"That's right. But what job? Do you even know what I can do?" Uzuki inquired.

" It doesn't matter what your old work was or what your qualifications are. What we want can only be done by you," Lucifer said as an innocent smile formed on his face.

"What do I have to do?" Uzuki asked.

" We have a post called Search a.n.a.lyst," Lucifer said, making a fake post for Uzuki to keep them with him. "Wherever we need any information, it'll be your job to search it on the net. That's all."

"Search a.n.a.lyst? And you said only I could do it?" Uzuki asked, confused. Why did it seem like a job that even a kid could do?

"Yeah. Only you can do it. Actually, most of us are a bit backward when it comes to technology. So we can't search on the internet."

"That's why this post was created. You'll work as my Personal Search a.n.a.lyst. As for your pay, we'll give you a hefty payment," Lucifer replied, making an absurd yet simple lie.

"What do you say? I mean, it's not a bad offer. Working with a top cla.s.s agency. You'll get to learn a lot. And no one will bully you if you work with us. Just our name would be enough to help you in situations," he further said.

"In any case, you don't have a family. Settle down here with us."

Hearing all the luring words of Lucifer, Uzuki was actually interested. Working for the government?

In any case, he was too intimidated to say no. It was already a struggle for him to not start sweating, let alone saying no.

Ultimately, he agreed.

" I accept the offer. When do I start?" He asked.

"You start right now. Just stay with me. Whenever I need you, I'll tell you what to search, alright?" Lucifer replied.

Uzuki nodded and followed Lucifer.

They reached the medical room where the white-robed doctor was still sitting, looking at the ash on the ground.

He was still blaming himself for the deaths of Xander. He previously thought Xander could escape like this, but let alone Xander, even Ayn was dead because of this.

"I'm sorry, my friend. But I couldn't do anything. Please forgive me," he said softly.

Suddenly, he heard the doors open. He stood up abruptly at the sight of Lucifer and the others.

"Greetings, Doctor. I want you to check Caen and help him," Lucifer told the doctor, entering the room.

"He was kept in your prison and tortured. I heard you weren't the doctor that Varant was using to heal him, so you might not know," he added as he picked a nearby chair and sat on it.

" It was kept a secret from everyone. Now it's your responsibility to help him. Get to work," he further said.

The doctor observed Caen, slightly surprised to know that there were prisoners who were being tortured like this, and he didn't know about it.

"Please lie on the bed," he told Caen.

Caen walked towards the bed, stumping. He soon laid on the bed.

The doctor started checking him.

"I can see signs of torture. These signs, it seems like he was hurt again and again. Did Varant really do all this?" he asked Lucifer after he finished checking.

" Do you think we did it if not him? We just freed the prisoners," Lucifer replied, rolling his eyes. "Can you help him get better before tomorrow? I don't want him in pain."

"I should be able to give him some relief from pain. But full treatment will take time," the doctor replied.

"Do as much as you can for now," Lucifer commanded.

The doctor nodded as he started leaving.

"Where are you going?" Lucifer asked, noticing the doctor leave.

"I'll be right back. I need some medicines that aren't in this room," the white-robed man answered as he left.

...

While Lucifer and the others were in the base of APF, the Uprising headquarters also had a few people.

The injured Uprising Members were back already. Moreover, they were all happy despite being injured. They had just received the news that the APF headquarters was in the control of the Uprising.

Even Tristan was pleased. At the same time, he was upset as well that he wasn't there when this happened.

He was being taken to the operation room at the moment where his hand was going to be attached again.

The Uprising lab technicians and scientists were also working. They had just received a call from Kellian, who told them what had happened. Kellian also gave them a special task without telling Lucifer.

...

" You're really the Uprising leader now. I wonder if I should still call you Lucifer or Captain," Lying on the bed, Caen asked.

"I'll always be Lucifer for you," Lucifer replied right away.

" By the way, I still owe you a request. You didn't tell me last time what you wanted," Caen let out, smiling. "I've always been thinking what that request might be."

"Request?" Lucifer inquired, curious.

"You forgot? When we were sitting on the beach, we played a little game. The loser was supposed to finish one task given by the winner. After I lost, I asked you what my task might be. You said you'd tell me on our way back," Caen said, sighing.

"But we were attacked soon after. I actually thought that you had died, and I still owed you that request," he added.

"Hahahaha, you still remember that? Don't worry; I already did what I was about to ask you to do. You don't have to worry about that," Lucifer let out, laughing.

"Can I know what it was?" Caen asked.

" I wanted you to help me find Veracity," Lucifer explained. "But I found her myself later on."

"Why did you want to find her?" Caen asked, curious. Why would a ten year old boy want to find her?

"Just some personal reasons. At the time, I thought you could help me," Lucifer responded. "But as you said, we were attacked, and things changed."

"In that case, I still owe you a request. Ask me anything else," Caen let out. "I don't want to owe you."

"Don't worry. Get well first. I certainly need a lot of help from you. This is just the start of things," Lucifer said. He s.h.i.+fted his attention to Uzuki.

"Uzuki, I have your first task as my Search a.n.a.lyst. Search the net and tell me what you can find about the Divine Empire and the Continent of Triton," he told Uzuki.
