Inhuman Warlock

"Father, General Nimel!" The current head of the Ostrin family respectfully greeted the two Generals.

The man completely ignored all the youngsters. Even though one of them was his son, and the other two were also probably special people, but they were still not at his level to get his greeting.

"Hmph," Raayi's grandfather didn't react much. He only nodded lightly. "This place isn't half bad. Just a bit too warm for my taste."

Since the Nimel Clan controlled ice and snow, they lived in a world covered with ice. They felt more comfortable there.

"General is right. But we've already prepared a cold room for you. I promise we won't let you be uncomfortable. You're our guest."

While the three men talked, Ron held the hand of Lucifer and brought him to his mother, who he was closer to. Raayi also walked with them.

"Mother," Ron greeted his mother.

"Little one, it looks like you brought your friends with you? Aren't you going to introduce them?" The middle-aged woman asked. Despite her age, she still looked as if she was in her early twenties.

"Of course." Ron started with Lucifer. "This is my friend that I met in the World of Trials. Even though he looks like an ordinary person, you'd be surprised to know his achievements. He's also the one who won the current Trial!"

"Hmm? He won? Weren't you and two other Seeds taking part? Your friend must be quite strong. Which major clan is he from?" The woman asked, slightly surprised.

Winning against three seeds of three major clans wasn't a small thing. Not only did he win, but he also managed to make Ron his friend?

Even though Ron's Father was talking to the two Generals, he could still hear the conversation that was taking place in the back. He was as surprised as his wife to know that the little guy won. Was he really from a Major Clan?

"He's not from a Major Clan. He's a new recruit that only recently joined the Star Alliance. He comes from Earth, the recently discovered planet," Ron explained.

The middle-aged man was slightly disappointed. So the kid was just talented but had no major family support behind him. Then what was he doing here? Did Ron bring him here on this trip as a stowaway?

"You kids, can you speak less? You're disturbing my conversation with the Generals. Take that little guy to the Castle first. Don't worry; we will treat him well as well. Our Clan is really kind. We won't worry about wasting some food on your friend."

Ron's father was quite upset with his son. This was a special occasion when two Generals were coming to their home, and his son wasted his time in bringing a person like that? Even though Lucifer won the tournament, that just meant he was a little talented, and a Captain Ranked person. But so what?

Without the support of a Major Family, he was missing! Thousands of Captain Ranked members bowed their heads before the Ostrin Clan, after all. Thanks to that thought, he didn't even consider Lucifer worth any effort, and it was clear in his tone.

Lucifer also noticed that strange tone. It was as if he was a beggar who came to beg before their doors, and the man was being merciful by allowing him to stay in the Palace.

Even though Ron was a person who didn't care about status and such, his father was different, and it couldn't be clearer. Lucifer wasn't the only one who sensed this tone. Raayi, her grandfather, and Lexton's father also sensed that condescending tone.

General Ostrin's face twitched uncontrollably as he watched his son behave in this manner. He worked so hard to bring Lucifer here, and he only managed to succeed because Lucifer had already promised his son. And now this behavior? General Ostrin wanted to slap his son in anger, but he controlled himself.

He opened his lips to speak, but before he could, a condescending laughter echoed in the back.

"Good! Very good! Is that how you talk with my disciple? We are beggars to come to your door? Is that what you're trying to imply?"

This was exactly the opportunity that General Nimel was waiting for. He already hated being in someone else's territory, but because of Lucifer's promise to the Ostrin Clan, he had to be here. But now that this had happened, he finally had the opportunity to leave this place!

"D-disciple?" Lexton was stunned. When he heard that Lucifer wasn't from any Major Clan, he thought that the child was just someone who didn't have any backing. He thought that the only reason he became friends with Ron was because he wanted to lack onto them like a parasite! But this kid... He was the disciple of a General?

"Old Nimel, calm down. My son is an idiot. I'm sure he didn't mean to say that." General Ostrin tried to pacify the situation, but it seemed too late.

"He didn't mean to say that? Lucifer is the most precious member of the Entire Star Alliance! Isn't that why Her Majesty assigned all Generals to train Lucifer?! Even Her Majesty treats him with respect, and you think you can insult him? I've had enough!"

General Ostrin could understand that General Nimel was trying to take advantage of the situation to leave this place early since he was forced to be here. However, he couldn't do much. This guy genuinely had an excuse that he was waiting for! It was their own clan that was in the wrong.

"W-what? He's the disciple of all Generals? Respected by the Queen? H-how is that possible?" Ron's Father was horrified. Initially, he didn't think of Lucifer as anything more than a poor parasite who wasn't supposed to be here! Who would've known that the person he considered to be a waste of food here was so special?

"General Nimel, please forgive me! I really didn't mean to say that! Please don't leave in anger, and allow me an opportunity to apologize!"

Laxton was horrified to know the mistake he had committed and the intensity of it! If Lucifer was really special, then it meant he was going to become a really important member of the Star Alliance in the future. He could even become the next King one day! n(-()(-)//-((I--n

Even though the Ostrin Clan was powerful, they were nothing before the might of Star Alliance. He couldn't afford to offend him.

problem.

Moreover, if General Nimel felt this insult with Lucifer's insult, then what about other Generals? Were they also going to feel insulted? Did he single-handedly offend all the Generals? That wasn't a small problem.

He had to solve that problem right here before things escalated. He didn't want the news to spread!

"Young man, I really apologize for my behavior just now! I really didn't mean to insult you!" The leader of the Ostrin Clan apologized to a young man who was in his early twenties. This was a sight that no one believed they were going to see in their lifetime, but that was exactly what happened! This was shocking to every member of the Clan.

They all wondered just what was the true identity of this person. Was he the Prince of the Star Alliance?

Lucifer was also somewhat angry and wanted to leave, but before he could say anything, the Nimel Clan Patriarch took the lead, giving him no opportunity to speak for himself.

Moreover, now Laxton was already apologizing to him. He could only scratch his back. He didn't even get to show his anger, and he had already received an apology. He was somewhat disappointed, but it wasn't bad. It saved him some trouble.

Considering the fact that he was here to learn the Thunder Art, he didn't want to leave so soon either. He believed he could only forgive the man.

Seeing him lost in thoughts for so long, everyone believed that Lucifer was still angry.

"Young man, how about this? As a form of apology, we would teach you our Bloodline Art. I'm sure that it should be enough compensation in exchange for forgiveness?" Ron's grandfather came forward.

Even he misunderstood Lucifer's silence as his anger.

"You old fox! I'm supposed to be his teacher for now! You dare steal my disciple before it's your turn?" General Nimel roared in anger.

"You can still teach him. I won't stop you," General Ostrin answered. "I'm sure he can learn from both. Also, doesn't that mean we get twice the time to train him if we train him together?"

"This..."

Lucifer was even more stunned. He felt like a child whose fate was being decided by elders. These guys... They didn't even give him a chance to speak before deciding everything amongst themselves.

The two Generals even came to an agreement that they were going to train Lucifer together and get twice the time to train. Moreover, as part of the agreement, just like General Nimel came here, General Ostrin was also supposed to go to the world of General Nimel.
