Chapter 850: Tricks

They looked down, seeing the formation breaking apart. Even if it was breaking, they didn't think it was harmful to them. Just a tiny bit of energy was nothing, but Lucifer's smile was off.

"You wanted to leave this Dungeon, right?" Lucifer yelled from a distance. "Your wish is granted! No need to thank me!"

Just as Lucifer finished, everyone's face turned pale as they felt a spatial energy like nothing before. They tried running away from the formation, but they were trapped in the spatial energy. Even Licia couldn't control the chaotic space to free herself.

"I will kill you!" Licia screeched like crazy. Her scream kept echoing in the surroundings even as she disappeared along with Milen and Jian.

All three of them were gone, unable to return. It wasn't an offensive skill. It wasn't even a skill of Lucifer to do this. This was just an accidental discovery that he made during a battle with the Warlock Council.

It sent him to the World of Summon, all because of the decay and Summoning Circle combinations. If these people had left the formation in time like Lucifer, they could have escaped, but they didn't know that this was going to happen.

After going through the exact thing twice, Lucifer knew about the importance of each second, which helped him escape in time.

"Without luck to be in the presence of a summoned beast and the decay, they can't return to this world, no matter how good their control is. I hope they enjoy their freedom," Lucifer muttered, sitting on the ground. "Until next time we meet."

He breathed heavily even as he sat, sighing. This whole thing took a heavy toll on him, especially casting the Summoning Circle and using decay on it. However, he was also happy that it worked.

He knew that Jian couldn't be killed. No matter how many times he was killed, he was going to come back stronger. So the best he could do was trap him in a place where he wouldn't need to be killed, but he couldn't come back from either.

This was a plan he came up with as soon as he was told about the specialty of Jian. As for practicing making the Summoning Circles, he had started that long ago, as soon as he heard about the presence of one of the stones in the world of summons, since this was his only way to enter that realm. He didn't know this was going to come in handy as a weapon.

Unfortunately, this problem wasn't solved entirely. He had delayed facing it for later. One day, he needed to enter the world of summons as well to recover that stone. That was the day he might face them again. Fortunately, he had time until then... Time to become even stronger, so he didn't need to avoid a battle with the three of them together.

Moreover, he was also sure he could find his sword until then... That was with him when he was found.

Milena came running with Salazar and Yaliza, finally reaching Lucifer, only to find him sitting on the ground, tired.

There was no one here except him.

"Where is everyone else?" Milena asked. "They left?"

"I trapped them in the world of summons, including Jian. Good to see that you recovered Salazar and Yaliza," Lucifer responded, looking back. "Did you not find my parents?*

He seemed a bit disappointed to see Milena alone; however, he didn't blame her. It was quite possible that his parents weren't in this space.

"It's not that I didn't find them," Milena answered after a bit of hesitation. "In fact, we did find them, but we can't bring them with us."

"Why not?" Lucifer asked, frowning as he stood up.

This time, it was Salazar who took the lead as he explained everything they saw, including the crystal and everything else.

"Their souls are trapped by the Dungeon?!" Lucifer exclaimed. "That... I read about the Dungeons eating souls, so I won't doubt it. I don't know if the Soul can be refined by the Dungeon without the body or not, but if it can't, then that man is telling the truth. They might be brought back to life."

"Did you make sure they were dead?" he asked.

"They were inside the stone and unmoving. It's possible they were dead, but it's also possible that they were trapped alive, and that man lied about them being dead to convince... The other you. But we have no way to test. If we bring them out, the Dungeon will devour their body. That's why we came here to let you decide," Milena exclaimed.

Lucifer's frown deepened. "Something doesn't add up."

"What do you mean?" Yaliza asked.

"My parents were poisoned in a level four Dungeon. That's where their bodies were stolen according to that man, so shouldn't their soul be trapped in that level four Dungeon? I don't think Dungeons can share souls from one place to another? So how would breaking this Dungeon help them? Moreover, this Dungeon doesn't have their souls, so it can't devour their bodies either!' Lucifer explained.

"That man bluffed!" he exclaimed.

He turned to look back at Milena. "Half of his story might be true, but the story about breaking this Dungeon to help my parents is a lie! If anything, we need to break Level Four Dungeon. There's no danger in bringing them out of that stone!"

"Where are they? Take me to them!"

"That way!" Milena pointed behind her and started flying away. Everyone followed behind her.

....

Back in the world of Summons, Jian, Licia, and Milen found themselves in a different realm entirely.

Licia and Milen looked up towards the bright sun in the sky.

"O-outside... We are actually outside? We are free from the Dungeon?" Licia exclaimed. Excitement was clear in her tone.

"You idiots! You think he would free us for no reason? He trapped us here! This isn't Earth! This is the world of Summons! He trapped us in a freaking prison with no way out! We aren't going to be summoned to be able to get out of here! We're trapped here forever! That damn bastard!' Jian yelled in rage.

"After so much effort, I had established a contract on earth, spending whatever soul crystal I had! I can't do it again! I need that sword, but I'm not even on earth now! Just when I was close to retrieving it! I would kill that bastard!"

His yell spread far and wide, alerting the entire city.

Many Great Beast families came out of their houses to see who was yelling.

One of the arrogant youngsters was the first person to reach the spot: the heir of the Golden Rhino Clan.
