DC: The Sorcerer System Chapter 8

Chapter 8: Quest



[[Lucien Lemuel Morningstar']]



{{Quest: Assist Harley Quinn and White Rabbit in their mission.



Reward: Dungeon Key ×1 (permanent)}}



Humans were complex. Each of them had different personalities, different aspirations and different alignment. 



Completely different from the angels and demons whose alignment was decided from birth. 



And helping these humans would reward me with the final thing to complete this system. 



The dungeon that my father told me about. 



"Who exactly is this green lantern and why do you want to annoy him again?" My question made the two women look at each other, each getting comfortable with the flight ability. 



"He is a member of the League." The girl in the rabbit costume said, whose name I believe was White Rabbit. 



"And it's always fun to annoy the League!" Exclaimed Harley. 



This made me question their strength. I knew that Lantern was from the League and I asked to get an estimate of how strong the guy was. And he has to be strong considering all League members are monsters.



Now, how strong were the two girls in front of me? It would have taken a while to figure it out but I have a way through the process.

{{Name: Harleen Francis Quinzel}}




{{Title: Harley Quinn, Cupid of Crime}}




{{Tier: 6 (Grade: B)}}




{{Race: Human (Infected)}}




{{Ability: None}}




{{Class: Berserker}}




Tier 6 was the tier for base humans however she has grade B which means she is far above your average human. However, what I noticed was her berserker class which was weird given her small frame. 



Then again, she did seem to grow crazy when in battle… a trait possessed by all berserkers.



{{Name: Jaina Hudson}}




{{Title: White Rabbit}}




{{Tier: 6 (Grade: A)}}




{{Race: Human (Metahuman)}}




{{Ability: Imperfect Bio-Fission}}




{{Class: Thief}}




A thief class? That’s interesting and she is not exactly a normal human either. That metahuman race is what probably gave her the ability.




“Do you two believe that you can defeat this Lantern guy?”



“Not really.” Harley said, “But we don’t have to defeat him to annoy him.”



“And you seem to lack a lot of information.” White Rabbit said. “I don’t think there is anyone that hasn’t heard of the League. But here you are… clueless.”



League sounded interesting but not enough for me to bother with them. It’s never fun to chase wannabe good guys. 



Father’s words, not mine.



But these girls are quite interesting.



“Where are you even from?”



A bit nosy but maybe that’s all humans.



Giving her a smile, I decided not to answer that. “I believe we haven’t known each other for long enough to share such information about ourselves.”



This surprisingly didn’t offend her and instead, she shrugged. “Fair.”



I wasn’t flying at my fastest as one of the reasons I decided to come out was to explore and I was enjoying the shift in scenery with each second we flew.



“Do you know where we can find him?” 



Rabbit smiled, “Of course.”

[[Hal Jordan]]



It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that the most annoying jobs were often given to Hal and he knew it. However, considering Batman was busy with a certain issue, he couldn’t complain much either.



But no matter what, having to help secure the delivery of some diamonds was not what he had in mind for the day.



“Not the most enjoyable job, aye?” 



Laughing at the driver’s question, He shook his head. “I have done jobs that made me fall asleep. So, this is not that bad.”



The driver grinned. “Good because I wouldn’t want my bodyguard to fall asleep in the middle of work.”



The man was an old acquaintance that was responsible for the delivery of most of the expensive goods. And because of how efficient he was in his work, even some of the heroes preferred having him as their courier guy.



And while this job was not enjoyable, it was a bit relaxing. 



Well, enjoying the cold wind and looking at the ever changing scenery, maybe it was not that bad. 



Or so he thought.



…


…



[Metropolis Highway]



“Yeehaw! Green boy!”



The delivery van screeched on the road at the sudden braking, almost making it crash onto a pole. Hal barely managed to use his ring to create a light construct to prevent it from flipping.



“Shit!” Hal cursed seeing the damaged van. “You alright, old man?”



The driver groaned from the sudden impact. “Y-Yeah, I am.”



Hal scowled and looked straight to find a giggling Harley and a smirking White Rabbit.



“At a loss for words, Lantern?"



"Harley… Rabbit…" Hal muttered, seeing the two women. "What the hell are you doing here?"



It was more of a threat than a question. 



Giggling at the question, Harley pointed at the Van. "We want those diamonds. Can you give it to us, green boy?"



Hal was furious at her mocking tone. "You sure as hell won't be getting those diamonds but you will be going to prison!"



Saying this, he shot his energy beam towards her. 



{{Reflect}}



Another ray of light, similar to his, countered the ray he shot.



"That was surprisingly a good attack."



Hal froze when he realised his attack was matched by a mirrored attack.



"If not for my ability, these two ladies would have been seriously hurt." 



Hal shifted his vision from the two women to the new guy. 



"Not a very gentlemanly behaviour, don't you think so?" 



"Who are you?" Hal questioned, staring at Lucien from head to toe. 'He is young, probably the same age as Kara.'



"The name is Lucien Dawns." He introduced in a gentlemanly manner. "A fellow metahuman."



Rabbit explained to him that a metahuman was a human with powers and he thought it was a great way to explain his identity. 



"And apparently a criminal as well." Hal sneered. "Why does a young man like you align yourself with these people?"



Lucien raised an eyebrow, "Pardon?"



Lucien was still getting used to the human world and getting used to the alignment set by them was not something that he was used to just yet.



But before Hal could explain, he saw Rabbit moving towards the van. 



"Freeze!" Firing his ring to construct a barrier around the van, he furiously looked at the thief. 



Harley, taking the chance, rushed to the other side. Sliding inside the broken door of the van. However, as Hal made his way to stop her. 



He was stopped by a sudden force. 



"You still haven't explained what you meant by 'being a criminal'." 



"Fuck!" Hal was caught off guard by Lucien's barrier. 



"Sweet~" White Rabbit whistled as Harley swiftly grabbed the diamond case and slid out of the half broken door. 



"You are helping these criminals steal the diamonds and have the audacity to ask the meaning?" Hal roared trying to shoot another ray however, Harley quickly moved to prevent getting hit. 



"We can go now, Lucien."



Rabbit said, pointing at the case filled with diamonds. 



Lucien nodded, however he was still interested in what Hal said. 'Apparently, interacting with evil makes you an evil in the human world. Interesting.'



"Lucien!" 



Harley's yell made him realise that they wanted to get out of there as even without thinking, he decided to help them. 



Why? Because the two girls seemed fun. 



"You aren't going anywhere!" 



However, it was useless as Lucien already decided to help the girl. 



"Alright." 



Harley threw a small smokescreen grenade, causing the area to be flooded with smoke.



Using a smokescreen to disrupt Hal's vision, Lucien used Aerial Travel to quickly get out of the area. 



{{Aerial Travel: Supersonic Mode}}



And just like that, the trio shot up in air at a speed that Hal couldn't fathom. 



"Bat's gonna kill me…"
