Chapter 303: War (1)

Name:Inhuman Warlock Author:
Varant knew that it was the same attack that he had previously seen. The same attack which destroyed the barrier and his helicopter. 

He also had a general idea of who the person was that was attacking him. 

"Gensi…" Varant calmly said as he dodged the two sword beams. 

"I know. I'll take care of him," Gensi said as his figure disappeared like an assassin. 

As Varant had dodged the attack, sword beams landed on the house behind, destroying it entirely. 

There were no attacks again, and Varant was sure that there weren't going to be these attacks anymore. Gensi was going to take care of that guy. 

Instead, he focused on the call. Varant called the number of the Hunter Union to ask them about the whereabouts of Zeiss. 

" Where is Zeiss?" He asked as soon as the call was picked up. 

"May I ask who is asking?" Came the reply from the other side. 

" Varant!"

"Ah, Sir. Sorry, but he isn't here. He went to explore a dungeon."

" Send your men to him! I want a message delivered to him urgently."

"I'm sorry sir, but he went into a high level dungeon. Only strong Hunters can be sent there. Unfortunately, he took most of them with him. The base is almost empty today."

" When will he be back?" Varant asked, frustrated. 

" We don't have any timeline regarding that. May I ask what message you want to be delivered? Maybe I can find a Hunter to deliver a message to him if someone becomes available," the person on the other side replied. 

"Tell him to get his a*s out of that dungeon! And tell him to contact me as soon as he comes out!" Varant firmly said before disconnecting the call. 



The entire city was covered in dust and even smoke that had started appearing out of nowhere. Not only the APF but even the Variant Uprising members had a limited view because of it.

There were still a few top ranking Variants here that were given special equipment, which gave them a better view. 

One such piece of equipment was in the form of glasses which was being worn by Tristan at the moment as he attacked Varant. 

He was hoping to get a clean hit, but it seemed like Varant knew that attack was coming towards him and dodged it on time. 

Frustrated, Tristan again decided to attack, only to stop in the middle as he felt a presence around him. 

He jumped to his left, dodging a knife that could be seen stabbed in the ground there a few seconds later. 

"Ah, you're that assassin guy, aren't you? The one who is always brooding and looks like someone stole his wife? If I'm not wrong, you and that pink-haired guy are friends," Tristan added as he laughed. 

"Where is Riali?" Gensi's voice came as he appeared in front of Tristan. 

"You'll need to escape my attacks if you want to stay alive to know the answers," Tristan responded as he attacked again. 

Another arc of light left his sword at the speed of light, intending to cut Gensi in half. 

Gensi's figure flickered as he appeared in a different place within the blink of an eye. 

"You'll need to work really hard if that's the best you can do," Gensi said in a sarcastic tone. "Answer me now. Where is Riali?"

"Man, that pink-haired guy should already be in hell by now. But you can't blame me for his death. I only cut him in half after he had used Overdrive. He was going to die anyway. I just helped him along the way," Tristan answered, laughing. 

At the same time, he attacked again, but this time he didn't attack one place. He attacked all the places around him in quick succession so that even if Gensi moved, he wasn't going to have any escape. 

This time, however, Gensi didn't move. His fists were clenched as he shook his head in disappointment. 

"I'll send you there to keep him company then. And don't worry, you will be allowed to blame me for that," Gensi said in a deep voice. 



The number of Variants that were standing with Raia had dwindled as everyone went to fight and kill the enemies, leaving only Raia, Lucifer and Alicia behind. 

Lucifer was also given the black pair of glasses by Raia, which allowed him to have a better vision in this city. 

The glasses seemed no less than the sunglasses from outside, but they were also developed by the lab of Variant Uprising. 

" Are you going to start facing Varant?" Lucifer asked Raia, wondering when this guy was going to start attacking. He could see Varant standing in the distance, talking to someone over the phone. 

"Just wait for a little. It's not the time," Raia replied calmly.

...

While Raia seemed to be waiting for something, the battle raged on in the city as the strongest Variants of the country faced each other. 

"Aargh!" 

In one such part of the city, a Variant from APF screamed as he shielded his body while crashing into a house, breaking through the walls. But, the moment he appeared on the other side, numerous attacks were spammed on his position.

Flustered, all he could do was unleash his ability without any thought, blowing up the entire house in a powerful wave. 

But unfortunately for him, he felt like his movement was restricted suddenly. It seemed as if someone had paralyzed him for a moment. 

The moment he was paralyzed, a rope of fire coiled around his neck and burned through it, killing him. 

"Heh, one more down." The Variant with the fire rope smirked with a smug look.

He was feeling proud of their teamwork when he flinched all of a sudden, coiling the fire rope around his body to protect himself against something. 

But a couple of seconds later, he screamed in pain, dropping the fire rope as he began to scratch his body in a frenzy. Blisters formed on it before his blood bloomed into flowers, burrowing their roots deep into his body.

Within a couple of seconds, a field of flowers had formed on the debris of the blown-up house. It was the ability of a Warlock from APF Alpha Squad that hid herself the moment she landed into the dust cloud with her teammates. 

Unfortunately for them, they lost a few within the first round of attacks. Short of manpower, they had to remain in hiding. 

As for the man that had been screaming in pain as flowers bloomed on his body, he had died long ago. And, his body had been used as a fuel to expand the flower domain.
