Chapter 633 - 633: Dimensional Shift

"What do you suggest?" Joan looked at Avil. "I personally think we should spread out and attack him cleverly. Don't give him the chance to find us all in one place. Use our numbers to keep the damage low, but if you have a better plan, I'm all ears."

Avil took a deep breath before opening his lips to speak. "I think we should, argh-"

Just as Avil started speaking, he felt some disturbance in space. But before he could do anything, a knife stabbed his heart, right before he teleported. 

Even though he had managed to teleport, he was late. The knife had left a hole in his heart. 

He appeared on a distant roof, coughing out blood. He also dropped to his knees as his face turned pale. 

He couldn't even find the strength to stand. His vision blurred. He teleported one last time before losing consciousness. And the place he went to was the medical facility, hoping that they might be able to do something. 

Unfortunately, it was too late. Only his dead body appeared there. Even the doctors couldn't do anything other than declare him dead while wondering what was happening. 

It wasn't normal for a member of the Head Council to come here this injured. They couldn't help but wonder what was happening. 

One thing was certain though. Something was wrong. Their doors were sealed, and the communication in this place was jammed. No communication went out of this place or came inside. 

It was as if the headquarters were completely cut off from the rest of the world. 

Julien hadn't gone to meet with other Warlocks. Instead, he was lying on his bed, playing a game on his phone, when he saw the game stop. The game worked online, and the internet and all other forms of communication were shut. 

As soon as the hand stopped, he checked the setting to know what was happening. 

"Internet stopped? That's fascinating. It's not something we see often. And very convenient as well. Right after they went to meet the kid, I guess I'll check out as well."

He got off the bed and stretched his arms, yawning. 

As soon as he stood up, he started feeling lazy. 

"On second thought, they can handle it themselves."

He walked back to the bed and placed the phone aside before lying on the bed to get a nap. 

There was a reason he was called the Laziest Warlock in the Warlock Council after all. Sleep was most important to him as long as his own life wasn't in danger. 

But that didn't mean anyone could underestimate him. He had proven his strength already, and he was one of the top Warlocks in the Head Council because of his abilities to stop time entirely if he needed and not just slow it down like Salazar. 

He could also slow down the time as well if he wanted, but that took the same effort as stopping time, so he preferred the latter. 

....

Arthur had killed Avil by teleporting right behind him. As for how he knew where exactly he had to appear, he used his brain. 

He didn't directly appear on the Warlock Council roof. Instead, he appeared in a distant building. From there, he found Avil and made his Teleportation perfectly timed. 

He had just stabbed the heart of Avil. Avil disappeared, revealing him to the other Warlocks.

Within a second, a barrage of attack flew towards Arthur, but he disappeared again. 

He appeared back inside the Headquarters and held the hand of Lucifer and Milena before going back outside. 

As all three of them could fly, they spread out, surrounding all the Warlocks on the roof. Now that Avil wasn't there, they had no way for them to teleport. They were surrounded from all sides, but most of them focused on Lucifer. 

"I don't know what Avil wanted to try, but he's most probably dead. We're on our own. Remember what I said. Spread out!" Joan commented as he split into hundreds of clones. All clones started running in a different direction. 

Ganso was known for his strength. He simply stomped on the ground, which made him jump high. 

He landed in a different building. 

All Warlocks used one way or another to spread out. 

One of them grabbed the hands of two Warlock as he flew away to bring them away. 

While other Warlocks were spreading out, there were around three of them who were still on the roof, attacking Lucifer to take him out and to keep him engaged. Two of them attacked Milena and Arthur. 

Lucifer cast a barrier before him simply. He didn't even need to dodge the attacks. All of them landed on his Barrier. He simply kept his focus on the people who were running away. 

Thump~

Lightning Bolt fell from the sky with a loud roar on top of the Warlock who was flying away, carrying two others. 

Unfortunately, it didn't hit them. The lightning Bolt passed through their bodies like they didn't exist. 

One of the Warlocks being carried used the Dimensional Shift to momentarily shift dimensions with his friends. The lightning passed through them. 

"If he wants to play hard then so be it!" The Warlock smirked. He raised his other hand towards Lucifer. His eyes shone momentarily. 

Boom~

A ball of fire managed to pass through Lucifer's barrier, hitting him directly. The ball of fire exploded as soon as it hit Lucifer, making him fly far away. His skin started burning. 

The barrier of Lucifer was made ineffective by Tom, who could not only use temporal shifts on himself and his friends, but he could also use it on the enemies without much concern about the range. 

As long as he was within a hundred-meter range of the enemy, he could use his Temporal Shift on them. That's what he used on the barrier of Lucifer to make it ineffective. 

"Good work," the Warlock who was carrying Tom complimented him, laughing. He left Tom and the other Warlock he was carrying on the roof from where he could have a clear view of the battle to use his abilities. 

After finishing, he turned around to face the battleground. 

Lucifer was still nowhere to be seen. On the other hand, something even more surprising was happening. 

Everyone had thought that Lucifer was the main threat, but something else was happening entirely. 

He was out of the picture, and Milena had taken the lead. And she was wiping the ground with blood.. That wasn't all! The Warlocks she killed were standing up again, and their eyes were blood red when they woke up.
