Evolution: A Warlock's Rise To Power

Chapter 101: To The Fallen Sanctuary



Chapter 101: To The Fallen Sanctuary

"How dare you share a bed with my sister, you no good dirty warlock!" Heaven's Kiss shouted at Lucan.

She entered to find the two under the blankets with the covers only exposing their heads.

Lucan was wide awake after the yelling but Silent was still slowly waking up. She had more experience with her sister screaming in the morning and didn't even register what Heaven had said.

Lucan moved to get out of bed.

"Noooo." Silent whined. "I want to keep snuggling." She said, holding him tight and not letting him get up.

"Sure." Lucan said happily as he put his arms around her while she nuzzled against his chest.

"Jenna, what the heck are you doing!"

Hearing her name, Silent opened her eyes to see her furious sister.

She realized what was going on and immediately tried to hide. Lucan was loving it while his girlfriend squirmed around under the covers.

"You get out of that bed right this instant, or I will have my guildmates drag you out!" Heaven yelled while staring at Lucan.

Heaven wanted to rip the covers off and yell to wake them up, but she was afraid of what she would find underneath.

"Good, you're back, we need to discuss something." Lucan said, peeling back the blanket to reveal that they were both fully clothed.

Heaven's Kiss let out a sigh of relief that didn't go unnoticed.

"Would it really be that bad if we did the horizontal dance?" Lucan asked while putting on his armor.

"You-, don't you talk to me." Heaven said. "Get out of here, I need to talk to my sister."

Lucan looked towards Silent who gave him a nod.

"Sure." He said and left the room.

There was already a decent sized crowd outside the room, attracted by all the yelling. Those nearby all knew that Heaven's sister was inside.

"Where does a guy get some food?"

"East hall." A man in the crowd said.

Lucan gave him a thumbs up and started walking east.

"Hey, don't just go wandering around." Another guild made said as they jumped in front of Lucan.

With the magic of ethereal step he kept going straight through the person.

"Do you want to show me where?" Lucan asked while he kept walking east.

A few players were confused, thinking he might be an illusion but Spicypumkin showed up and led him to the dining hall.

"Oh wow, this stuff is great, I can't believe you guys eat this every day. I really need to find a chef for myself. Dry rations are starting to taste like garbage after eating what you guys have." Lucan said as he dug into the food on his plate.

There were a lot of people watching him, but nobody was talking or responding to him. The crowd parted as Heaven's kiss, and Silent came to the table.

Heaven sat across from Lucan while Silent took a seat next to him. Heaven scowled at this but didn't make any comments about it, instead she turned to the crowd who was watching their fairy idol.

"Everyone, Silent Night is my sister in real life, so you better treat her well whenever you see her."

Nods and gasps spread through the crowd.

"Wow, Heaven has a sister? I didn't know."

"This is great, now we have two fairies, just look at her."

"Yeah, she is as gorgeous as her sister."

Lucan frowned and started to gather magic.

"Do you think she is going to join our guild?"

"I wouldn't mind fighting behind her." Another said while nudging his friend and raising his eyebrows.

Lucan released his magic as four phantom fighters came into being, blocking the table.

"Keep your damn eyes off of her or I will carve them out!" Lucan said while transforming his wand into a dagger and stabbing it into the table.

A guild member tried to push past one of the phantom fighters and received a back hand to the face that sent him flying over 5 feet through the air. Telekinetic slam may not do much damage, but it could send someone away.

"Wow, I thought they were illusions but look at the strength of those guys."

"Yeah, I can't even find out their level when I try to inspect them, let's not make any trouble."

Spicypumkin sat down next to Heaven. "This isn't a place for you to mess around. Attack another member of our guild and you won't be able to leave."

"Ha, ha, ha, you think your levels can contain me. Yeah right." Lucan said pulling his dagger from the table and turning to the crowd.

He felt a tug on his sleeve. He looked to Silent.

"It's alright." She said.

Lucan sat back down, stored his wand and pretended the incident never happened after Silent spread some jam on a piece of toast before placing it on his plate.

He picked up his prize and savored every bite, oblivious to the world around him.

"Don't you all have work to do?" Heaven said, shoeing away the crowd.

Silent was talking to her sister but Lucan wasn't paying a bit of attention, he ate every bit of toast, not leaving a crumb behind. He then turned towards Silent with big eyes and a longing expression.

She chuckled to herself and took another piece from her plate and moved it towards his.

By the time he was done, the others had finished their meal.

"Okay, let's get going." Heaven said.

"Wait, what? You're coming with us?" Lucan asked.

"Yes, it was agreed upon during breakfast. If you have a problem with it, you should have said something when we were discussing it."

Lucan clicked his tongue in regret. He had been too enamored with the food Silent had given him and now it would be pretty bad to kick her away after both sisters had already come to an agreement.

"But isn't everything going to be too high of a level for us if you come?" Lucan asked.

"Our levels won't affect the instance as long as you or Silent are party leaders. Don't you know anything?" Spicypumpkin said.

"What, you are coming too?"

"It will be fine." Silent said. "This way we can make progress with your quest faster. Both of them know the Fallen sanctuary instance like the back of their hand. We can go straight to the most likely places to find the journal. Apparently, it is a very big instance."

"Hmm, if you say it is fine, then it is fine." Lucan said as they walked out of the guild building.

Outside, Heaven blew a whistle. Suddenly a large white bird swooped down. Heaven and Spicy both hopped on.

"Come on Silent, we have room for one more." Heaven said, while patting the spot next to her.

The rogue gave Lucan an apologetic smile and sat on the bird.

He knew that it was a good thing for the sisters to interact. He also thought that he should try to get along better with Heaven, but that was easier said than done.

As the bird took to the sky, Lucan stepped on his broom and followed.

After two hours of flying, they came closer to a large mountain. They flew halfway up it before landing. A surprising notification brightened up his day.

[Congratulations! You are now a Baron under the command of the Supreme Leader Raze.]

[You now have the right to command an army.]

[You now have the right to create quests for your acolytes and direct warlocks.]

[Visit Raze to receive your reward.]

"Ha, ha, Alasan must have pulled through and gotten the last few people." He said to himself.

With the three women waiting on him, he didn't bother to check out the quest-giver tab in his interface and followed Heaven to a large portal that was hidden in the side of the mountain.

"Invite us to your party." Heaven commanded.

Lucan didn't stir up trouble even though she spoke to him like he was her servant. He added both Spicy and Heaven to the party he was in with Silent. Then all four stepped through the portal.

Before them was a destroyed town. Buildings were collapsed and half burnt while wild beasts roamed the street. With his great eyesight, Lucan could see a few figures moving from building to building on the far side of the town.

"The fallen sanctuary was once a safe haven for those from other realms, but during the great war the town was destroyed in the crossfire between the dragon forces and the giants. Now it is a home to bandits and murderous beasts. Keep your wits about you and there shouldn't be any problems." Heaven said while leading them towards the towns entrance.

Suddenly, three iron boars rushed out from behind a grouping of bushes and charged them. Lucan and Silent drew their weapons and prepared to act.

Heaven's Kiss simply waved her staff and the boars exploded into meat paste.

"Tsk, looks like we won't be getting much leveling done." Lucan remarked towards the prowess of high-level players.
